Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 209

Jennifer shot Charlene a provocative glance.

Charlene frowned. After all, this was a charity auction, and such blatant acts of hostility weren't typically expected.

But it was clear Jennifer was here to stir up trouble, and the whispers around them started to grow.

"I heard the Hibari Group is expanding into Qranross. Looks like Ms. Walsh is trying to make a statement tonight."

"Don't forget the history between Ms. Walsh and Ms. Geller. There's definitely something interesting going on here…"

Jennifer indeed needed the right opportunity to make a scene. The gala was her chance to make a splash, especially after Daniel had given her a hard time earlier. If she didn't use money to grab some attention tonight, she'd be furious.

Seeing the two women's provocation, he smirked slightly. Since they had money to burn, he wasn't about to stoop to their level.

"Thank you so much for your generous support, Ms. Walsh." Mikayla smiled on stage.

This bidding price alone was enough to spark a lot of conversation. Even if all the money went to charity, it would still be a win for her.

Seeing Charlene refuse to bid, Jennifer proudly raised her chin and flashed a smug look at Daniel.

He chose to ignore her. That crazy woman must have come up with some strange idea in her head again, and he couldn't be bothered to engage with her.

No matter how much they spent, it would only benefit his own company. So, what was there to complain about?

But the more Daniel gave in, the bolder Jennifer and Zidane became. From that moment on, they began bidding aggressively on every item that came up. In just a short time, they had already spent close to ten million.
