Just then, an obese middle-aged man in the last row raised his number plate, "150,000."
Jocelyn gave him a deep look and called for another bid, "Two hundred thousand."
She guessed that he should have seen something mysterious as well.
The obese middle-aged man added, "Three hundred thousand."
Jocelyn, "Half a Million."
Everyone on the floor, including the auctioneer on stage, was stunned.
"What are they up to? Competing to see who's more rich but stupid? Hahahaha."
"Why is this still a competition over a worthless high replica piece?"
"That's too funny, isn't it? Were they born into high replica?"
All around, the chatter is starting again.
Although Allie was very puzzled by Jocelyn's behaviour, she knew that Jocelyn must have Jocelyn's reasoning.
She was confident in her daughter-in-law.
Her daughter-in-law, she thought, must have seen something mysterious in the painting and that was why she was bidding on it.
So, Allie went silent.
Obese middle-aged man, "600,000."
Jocelyn, "800,000."
The obese middle-aged man had a look of determination, "One million."
Jocelyn, "Two Million."
There was an uproar as the crowd became more and more confused about them.
They've seen people fighting for the real thing, but they've never seen people fighting for imitations like this.
Are both of these people really in over their heads and trying to be idiots?
The prices they were shouting were beginning to drive the crowd to choking.
Obese middle-aged man, "Two million one hundred thousand."
Jocelyn had the same look of determination, "Two million three hundred thousand."
In the end, the obese middle-aged man hesitated and did not continue raising.
The beautiful auctioneer drew in a cold breath of shock and tried to maintain her proper composure as she looked at them both and said, "Two million three hundred thousand once, two million three hundred thousand twice. two million three hundred thousand. "
When she finished, the obese middle-aged man still didn't raise his bid any further.
Jocelyn smiled airily.
With this smile, it was as if a thousand stars had been rubbed into her body, and her whole being was so dazzling that the pearls and jade were not as bright as hers.
"Okay, I declare that this high replica sunflower goes to lady number 28!" The beautiful auctioneer forced herself to hold down her excitement and said.
Jocelyn's mouth grew into a smile.
"I've seen what it means to be a real loser girl."
"The Mason family should regret marrying her, right?"
A few more people were exchanging pleasantries and sneaking comments.
These words were not taken at all to heart by Jocelyn.
Allie, on the other hand, was getting more and more unease the more she listened.
She frowned in displeasure and looked behind her, "Even if she loses, it's my family that's losing, I haven't even said anything, what are you chattering about?"
"The most right thing we did was to marry our Jocelyn, no regrets in this life." Allie added.
Allie's words instantly warmed Jocelyn's heart.
