Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 936

Chapter 936 Build Your Relationship

The auction was in three days, and Rhys had bought a dress for Jenna to wear. "There will be many reporters at the auction, don't embarrass me. Go try it on," he said.

It was a white embroidered short dress with a simple and elegant design that accentuated her curves perfectly.

Jenna changed into the dress and twirled in front of the mirror. Judging by its material and fabric, it was obviously high-end couture, something she could never have imagined wearing before.

"Just wear this one, I'll find you a makeup artist later," Rhys said after taking one look at her.

On the day of the auction, Rhys brought Jenna to the venue but they were immediately surrounded by reporters before they even entered.

"Mr. Williams, are you and Mrs. Williams in love before you get married?" one reporter asked while another held up their camera to capture every moment.

Rhys wasn't a male star, but his popularity was high among netizens who followed him closely online. He pushed away from them like he had done before when faced with such situations.

If he had married someone he loved, then sharing their story with media would have been easy but now what could he say?

Should he tell them that they were forced into marriage without any real feelings for each other?

"Mrs. Williams, can you tell us where you first met your husband?" another reporter asked Jenna as she tried to avoid answering any questions about their relationship status since she didn't want to lie or reveal too much personal information about herself or Rhys either way just yet.

Jenna shook her head and quickly pulled Rhys' hand as they walked inside together, realizing only then that they had been holding hands all along!

"I'm sorry," she whispered quietly and released her grip on Rhys' hand!

Rhys nodded understandingly as they sat down together nearby, realizing there really wasn't anything else left for them to do except wait patiently...

Throughout the auction, neither of them spoke. The tension was palpable until the final item came up for bid: a set of three ice-blue bracelets, ranging in size from large to small.

The emcee, dressed in formal attire, enthusiastically introduced the piece from the stage. "This bracelet set is one-of-a-kind; there's only one in the world. Its biggest selling point is that it's a set of three, symbolizing three generations living under one roof."

Rhys' face darkened again; he had been duped by his mother once more.

If he bid on this bracelet set and won it, he would undoubtedly end up back in entertainment news again. But if he didn't bid on it, his mother would be angry.

Reluctantly and with a heavy heart, Rhys raised his bidding paddle and called out, "Ten million dollars."

"Eleven million!" A portly businessman next to him also raised his paddle.

The two men continued to raise their paddles until the price skyrocketed. Seeing this scene unfold before her eyes made even the emcee smile uncontrollably. "It seems that this bracelet set is really popular! You can buy beautiful bracelets if you have money but finding ones with such symbolism is rare."

The businessman glanced at Rhys, then noticed Rhys' wife sitting next to him; suddenly an idea occurred to him as he smiled and put down his paddle.

"Mr. Williams brought Mrs. Williams here today because they must have some good news coming soon! Since that's so, I won't compete anymore. Let Mr. Williams get some good luck!"
