After Being Cheating novel Chapter 108

'You are so simple! As a sister, you worry about me having a mistress. Let alone Sally... I have a lot of explaining to do after the auction!' thought Jerry.

"Go and take a seat!" he said. He put his arm around her shoulder and then walked towards the seats together.

As they were about to pass Kate, Janet stopped, and said, "Kate, if you dare to provoke me again, I will make you feel even more miserable than Milly!"

"You!" started Kate. But, seeing them quickly leave, she was too mad to say a single word more in reply!

'This damn woman! She makes childish mistakes everyday. I can't figure out why Daniel likes her so much!' wondered Kate.

What made her more angry was the fact that Daniel had turned a blind eye on the humiliation she had received from Janet.

If her boyfriend hadn't been Daniel, she would have never allowed herself being humiliated like that ever!

Jerry took Janet to the third row of seats and sat down. She was seated between Jerry and Shirley.

"Jerry, never contact Milly again!" demanded Janet. She then shot him a powerful judgmental glance.

But Jerry just smiled at her, and said, "Jane, you worry way too much. She is just a friend, I didn't cheat on Sally."

"No means no! You're married, and it was wrong to bring another woman to the auction!" answered Janet.

Her bossy attitude made Jerry feel really sorry for Daniel. How could Daniel, who was also bossy, overwhelm her?

"I got it, sister. Anything else you'd like? I'll buy it for you, like I said!" replied Jerry.

Janet looked at her brother, and said, "Jerry, you should buy it for Sally instead, not for me. Do you understand me?"

'My brother is so unromantic. How does Sally put up with him everyday?' wondered Janet.

"Sally?" asked Jerry. 'Well, Sally will definitely quarrel with me after this auction is over. she's right, I have to buy something as a gift to please her, ' thought Jerry. "What do you think she likes best? I'll buy it later, " he asked.

...

"Jerry, don't you know what kind of stuff your wife likes?" asked Janet. She felt even more desperate now.

On a second thought, Jerry replied, "She almost has your tastes. Whatever you like, she might like it as well."

...

"Jerry, if Sally dumps you one day, don't come to me running in tears!" said Janet. She felt stifled now. 'His character must be deeply influenced by his career as a lawyer. He was not as dull as he is now when he was little!' thought Janet.

When the auction was about to begin, Doris found Janet, and sat next to Shirley.

"Janet, what happened?" asked Doris. She had been in the washroom and heard that something happened.

Janet felt embarrassed and scratched her head. Just at the moment, a couple sat down in front of her; it was Daniel and Kate. She really wanted to kick their chairs.

"Nothing. Did we cause you any trouble? If so, I'm really sorry, " apologized Janet. The stir they caused all of a sudden made her feel apologetic towards Doris.

However, Doris smiled with two dimples showing on her face, and said, "It's OK, but it's just a pity to miss all of these dramatic scenes."

Feeling embarrassed, Janet smiled back, and said, "It wasn't dramatic at all. Thank God we didn't cause you any trouble!"

At that moment Doris's father, Mr. Dai, stepped on the stage and began to deliver an opening speech for the auction. He introduced all the present VIPs, and Daniel was the first on his list.

Daniel nodded to him when he heard his name.

Soon the first lot was displayed. "The first lot is an idyllic oil painting, created by the French painter Pollard. The starting price is ten thousand dollars! All of the sale proceedings for today's auction will be donated to a welfare home in the west of the city and to a nursing home. The auction begins!" declared the host.

After this, two security guards wearing gloves carried out the painting and displayed it on the stage.

Soon, people begun to bid for it, "$ 20, 000!"

"$ 40, 000!"

"$ 60, 000!"

"$ 100, 000!"
