After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities novel Chapter 67

She said drily, "Thank you. I'm saying it to you for Master Keturah."

Everyone started to feel tantalized.

Franklin added five million dollars to the price with his first bid.

It was a testament to the value of Master Keturah's painting.

Hence...The bid kept increasing.

It only took a while for the price to increase to 20 million dollars.

A painting for 20 million dollars. That was far from being affordable!

But the name of Master Keturah was too famous to be ignored.

Those super-rich men had been trying to get a work of Master Keturah since always but to no avail.

Then and there, the painting they had dreamed of was right in front of them, so how could they not fight for it?

Then the price started skyrocketing!

25 million!

30 million!

35 million!

The numbers kept growing bigger and bigger.

These super-rich men seemed to have lost their marbles.

Brayden was gaping, wishing he could have just taken all the paintings by Master Keturah off the walls of his home for the auction!

But he didn't have the guts, because those were his mother's treasures.

The bid had been very high, and the higher it got, the more the painting was desired.

Then it reached 50 million dollars!

Finally, a man with a pot belly yelled, "100 million dollars! The painting is mine!"

Silence reigned the room.

Everyone was staring at him in wide-eyed shock.

The man was known for collecting antique paintings and calligraphy.

But he hadn't possessed any painting by Master Keturah yet.

Tiffany gasped at what was happening there.

He was out of mind, wasn't he?

100 million dollars for a painting!

A satisfied look appeared on Sylvia's face.

She rose from her seat and bowed to the middle-aged man gracefully, and managed to see his name on his seat with her keen eyes. "Mr. Rogers, I am so grateful to you for your discerning eye, and I now promise you that a new painting by Master Keturah will be given to you too."

"Really?" Calvin Rogers was ecstatic with his face getting red and his hands trembling.

"Yes." Sylvia then sat down. Calvin was writing the check as he exclaimed to Sylvia, "Thank you! Thank you so much! Ha-ha!"

There came a noisy discussion.

"Buy one and get one free? Isn't it too good to be true?"

"Is this Sylvia lying about it? Is she that close with Master Keturah?"

Sylvia smiled, her cheeks rosy like a blossoming rose as she took the check, "Master Keturah told me that all the proceeds from the painting will go to Keturah foundation for charity. The accounts are open to public inspection."
