Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion) novel Chapter 140

Chapter 140 It’s Not Just About the Brooch Anymore 

Orion remained silent, his face cold, and his eyes evidently disgusted. 

If Ken couldn’t tell his boss was in a foul mood, he’d have wasted all his years in this field.. 

Sensing the tension, Ken quickly suggested, “Mr. Dros, how about we switch seats?” 

Without a word, Orion stood up, Ken swiftly moved aside to take his place. 

The assistant braced himself against Jane’s piercingly resentful gaze. 

Just then, Seraphina’s phone buzzed with a text message from Sarah. 

“Is that Jane Wheeler, the woman next to Orion?” 

Seraphina frowned slightly at the name and replied, “I can’t tell.” 

She had to think for a moment before recalling who Jane was, 

Jane had once declared she would pursue Orion. With a father who was a Winterwood mogul, she could have anything she wanted. 

Jane believed Orion’s rejection was due to her looks, so she went to Keglaidan for plastic surgery. 

“Rumour has it, she spent millions on the surgery, but the results were just so–so…Sarah sent an emoji of 

disdain. 

Seraphina chuckled, dismissing it as irrelevant to herself and too trivial to care about. 

As she lifted her head, the auction began. 

Most items didn’t catch her interest, but she was inexplicably drawn to a brooch. 

When the bidding for the brooch started at 30 thousand, it was already a high price for its value. 

Albert, without hesitation, raised his paddle.

“37 thousand-” 

*45 thousand-” 

The bidding continued until it reached 90 thousand and people were still calling out prices. 

Albert began to waver. 

For an actor who had recently found fame, the price was already 

sleep. 

Seraphina thought about how he had accompanied her to this dull auction and decided she should show some appreciation… 

Without hesitation, she raised her paddle.

“100 thousand- 

After seeing Seraphina bid, the previous bidder backed off, not wanting to compete. 

Jane, however, raised her paddle and said, “101 thousand-” 

Excitedly, she turned to Orion and said, “Orion. I’ll gift this to you…. 

Orion remained indifferent, as if he hadn’t heard her. 

Jane wasn’t discouraged and saw this as a perfect opportunity to win against Seraphina. 

Seraphina was close enough to hear everything clearly 

Haha, does Jane misunderstand her own worth? 

Dare to compete with her? 

*150 thousand, Seraphina declared. 

The whole room was abuzz 

This was the highest price for a brooch so far.

Jane’s excitement quickly turned to frustration as she couldn’t outbid 150 thousand with her allowance. 

Her hatred for Seraphina deepened.
