My Past is Just Prologue (Janet and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 42

Read My Past is Just Prologue By Louisa Dillon Chapter 42 – An Abrupt Reversal

Nathaniel had sensed something was wrong when the price was added to 10 million.

“Mother, stop raising the price. It’s dangerous.”

He tried to stop her.

Winifred knew he was right.

Although they were rich, spending 31 million to buy a necklace was outrageous.

Quintina disagreed.

“No, we must have it. Orville wants to give it to Janet. Why does she have all the good things? We can’t allow that to happen.”

Winifred was persuaded.

She couldn’t lose to Janet!

“What are you afraid of? I don’t believe that handsome boy dares to increase the price!”

They couldn’t be humiliated.

Winifred looked at Orville provocatively.

Orville pretended to be hesitated and raised the number plate unwillingly.

“Thirty-two million!”

Only one million!

Winifred was excited. She felt she had won already.

Nathaniel knew something was wrong, “Stop! Give it to them.”

“Brother!”

“You are too kind. We can’t let them have it. Even if we do, it must cost them a lot of money.”

She was too stup*d to see through this.

Nathaniel was angry, “Mother, if you insist on bidding, I won’t stop you again. But you must pay for it yourself.”

Winifred hesitated.

“Great! It’s within my budget. I will help you wear it later. You will look amazing.”

Orville seemed very happy.

Janet knew what he was doing. She smiled and said, “I’m so excited.”

Everyone was in an uproar.

“I didn’t know Southey Group was so wealthy.”

“Webster Group is going to lose. It’s just so-so.”

“If Janet is sitting by my side, I will buy her a necklace too, no matter how much it costs.”

Winifred was annoyed. She couldn’t lose to Janet.

Quintina whispered in her ear, “Mom, Orville is obsessed with that b*tch. If we can make him lose a bunch of money, he will

hate her.”

Winifred raised her number plate again.
