Claiming My Possessive CEO Husband by Qiaoqiao novel Chapter 298

298 Chapter 298: The Difference between Clouds and Mud 

Jake Lindsey sneered with disdain: “Xaviera Evans really can’t show her face in public. She hides all her savings, and doesn’t learn from you who run around for charity events.” 

Zara Woods chuckled confidently. 

A moment later, the auction officially began. 

The first item up for auction was a painting, but not by a famous artist, so no one raised their bid. 

cards. 

Even if donating, they wanted to buy useful things and not just spend money at random. 

Then, a sweet feminine voice spoke up, “200,000 dollars.” 

Everyone frowned at this since they didn’t even like the painting; they thought it was a waste of 200,000 dollars. 

“Miss Woods really knows the big picture, and she’s the only one who would spend money on this 

painting” 

“Even though 200,000 dollars is just a drop in the bucket for the Woods family, it’s still a waste. Compared to Miss Woods, some people are simply unbearable! How dare they show up here!” 

Everyone glanced at Xaviera Evans, murmuring, “Mr. Lindsey was right. Even if she doesn’t have money, she should at least be able to afford 200,000 dollars. If she doesn’t bid on this cheap item, there’s no way she’ll be bidding on the others.” 

Caleb Mamet’s face turned cold. 

The auctioneer struck the gavel, and Zara Woods was the final bidder on the first item, with no one else challenging her. 

Applause thundered through the venue, and everyone praised her for being beautiful and virtuous. 

Immediately after, the second item was a jade necklace personally carved by Mr. Price, with a starting bid of 2,000,000 dollars. 

Xaviera Evans suddenly took interest. 

Irene recently started to like Hanfu and wanted a beautiful jade necklace. Xaviera knew the quality of this necklace was good, and Irene would love it. 

The bidders raised their cards one after another for this item. 

In no time the 2,000,000–dollar necklace soared to 3,500,000 dollars. 

Ultimately, Zara Woods and another woman competed for the necklace, raising the price until Zara’s final bid reached 5 million dollars. Then, the woman backed down. 

The crowd gasped. 

Although valuable, the necklace wasn’t worth 5 million dollars. Miss Woods casually threw out 5 million dollars – was she not interested in the other items? 

Suki Woods proudly spoke, “My sister is kind–hearted. When it comes to charity, she doesn’t care 

about spending a small amount of money. Look at some people here, their thick–faced approach is 

unbearable!” 

The crowd whispered. Although Xaviera Evans was not as rich as Zara Woods, she should at least be able to afford something if she came to the auction. 

Suki Woods mocked, “This is a charity auction for children from poor families who need medical treatment. If some people don’t have the ability or love, they should get lost and not sit here. pretending to be wealthy! How disgusting!” 

As the words fell, the venue fell silent. 

Shortly after, everyone began to speculate. 

“Miss Woods just spent 5 million dollars without blinking, and I hear she’s got her eyes on some other items too. She’s probably going to donate tens of millions dollars tonight.” 

“I’ve also heard that Mr. Caleb Mamet’s female companion used to be Miss Woods at these events, but somehow, it became Xaviera Evans. Who knows what tricks she played?” 

“Miss Woods is so beautiful and well–bred, how can Xaviera Evans compare to her? Does Mr. Mamet really like Xaviera?”
