Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort novel Chapter 89

“Is he crazy? One hundred million for one necklace?” Amanda was dumbstruck.

“What’s the big deal about one hundred million? My darling can afford that as well,” Luna scoffed as she raised her bidding paddle again.

“Put it down… “ Simon swiftly pulled her hand down and said, “Are you trying to ruin Hector?”

“Dad, what are you doing… “

“Listen to your dad. Don’t do anything stupid,” Amanda reprimanded.

Even though Luna was outraged, she had no choice but to accept her fate.

“One hundred million going once, one hundred million going twice… “

“Are you mad? You’re paying one hundred million for one necklace?” Charlotte lowered her voice, hardly able to calm down. “Don’t you find it a waste of money?”

“Money is just a number.” The man remained unmoved.

“But… “

“And the ruby necklace is sold at one hundred million!” The emcee banged the lectern to end the bidding.

A concierge dressed in an evening gown delivered the ruby necklace cautiously from the stage to Zachary.

The man took over the necklace and handed it to Charlotte at once. “This is for you!”

She was shocked. He purchased the ruby necklace at one hundred million, and he’s giving it to me?

Is he sure about this?

There was an uproar among the guests. Most of them were engaged in hushed discussions with their families, trying to figure out Charlotte’s identity. They were wondering which rich or influential family the woman was from to be chosen by Zachary.

Most of the guests present did not know who she was, except for three of them.

Those three people did not dare to make a sound while they turned to look at Amanda, who shot them a look, beckoning them to expose Charlotte’s real identity.

Two of the three guests were hesitant to do that. The other woman was Mary, the wife of Thomas, a distant relative of the Windt family.

Previously, Thomas had tried to lecture Charlotte at the Whites’ residences but had been retaliated by the woman. Thomas and Mary still had not gotten over it yet.

When Thomas saw Charlotte entering the auction hall earlier that night, he cursed a little under his breath before finding an excuse to smoke backstage.
