In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 483

“What’s so interesting that she’s talking to him for such a long time? She never talks that much to me,” Tobias muttered.

Although his voice was a mere whisper, Susan could still hear him loud and clear since she was right next to him. Upon hearing that, she pursed her lips to stifle her laughter.

Well, well… Mr. Ford is really different when it comes to Skylar.

The last item to be auctioned was a painting by Claude Monet. It was a contribution from the organizer as the finale of the charity gala.

At that moment, the atmosphere in the room reached its zenith, and many of the top-notch A-list celebrities started raising their paddles.

Watching with flagging interest, Tobias lifted his hand and beckoned Susan closer.

“Have someone bid on it as a gift for Ms. Jones,” he ordered.

Susan instantly took out her cell phone and made the arrangements. In the end, the winning bid for the painting was an exorbitant fifty million by a mysterious buyer.

At that, Skylar felt that she was truly a hick who had no appreciation for art and famous paintings. After all, it was merely a piece of paper in her eyes, no matter how costly it was.

Hmm… But Tobias really likes such artistic things. Ah, what a shame that I don’t have the money to buy it for him since the pittance I was paid has all been used to buy the house!

“Since Skylar Jones is going downhill before she has even been popular, Royal Entertainment will probably blacklist her.”

“I heard that she has just bought a house for her mother. What a nice change of scenery for a murderer to live in a villa in the city after a stint in prison!”

“How could she possibly afford to buy a villa in the city? She must have had a devil of a time coming up with the downpayment. Hah! She’s simply biting off more than she can chew. She won’t be able to pay the loan when she’s in the gutter.”

“You’re unlucky to have the same manager as her. I heard that Kate thinks quite highly of her. This is the first time she has ever made an error in judgment.”

“If I were her, I wouldn’t dare to show my face here today. After all, it’s so humiliating!”
