My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 396

Chapter 396 He's Rich

Natalia looked at him and muttered, "If I take a fancy to anything, I can buy it myself."

She wasn't as she'd been before. With Star Entertainment and her own filming, she'd made plenty of money.

No match for a full aristocrat like Archie, but she could still accord to buy things she wanted for herself.

Archie smiled faintly. "That's right. If you want anything, you can get them yourself."

Natalia blinked and looked at him. There was a smile on his brow. She recalled that she basically had all his cards and land rights.

That was equivalent to having all of this man's properties in her hands. If he wanted to buy her anything now, he'd probably have to ask her for money.

Her face burned, and her heart swelled with contentedness.

Max, though, didn't know their situation, and his eyes widened with shock.

"You're not that stingy, are you, Archie! Not even buying your wife a gift."

His eyes darted to Natalia and he beamed, "How about this, Natalia! Introduce a girlfriend to me, and I'll buy you anything you like. How's that?"

Natalia rolled her eyes at him and scoffed, "I'm not so heartless as to push some poor girl into a fire pit."

Max was outraged. "Just how am I a fire pit? You know how many women up and down the country want to marry me?"

Natalia chuckled. "Wait until you get rid of the playboy title. I'd actually be impressed if that was the case."

Max was getting an ulcer.

At that moment, an item on auction caught her attention.

It was a hairpin of white jade, snowy pale, introduced as a marriage gift for a noble lady a millennium ago, symbolizing fair fortune.

The hairpin itself, in fact, was called the hairpin of fair fortune.

Natalia wasn't superstitious, but for some reason, she took a shine to the hairpin.

It started at three hundred thousand.

It was just an accessory, after all, and other than how delicate it was, the noblewoman wasn't anybody important, so the starting price wasn't high.

Archie had been paying attention to her expression in secret, and seeing her stare at the stage, he asked, "You like it?"

Natalia nodded.

The man pressed his buzzer.

"For the hairpin of good fortune, number 32 – one million!"

Natalia jumped. It was just a hairpin for three hundred K. No one had even called it yet, and he'd raised it to one million.

She tugged the man's sleeve, signaling for him not to go so hard.

Archie smiled down at her and murmured, "They'll raise."

Just as he'd said, from the front row, someone raised. "Number 16 – one million and one hundred!"

"Number 32 – two million!"

"Number 16 – two million one!"

"Number 32 – three million!"

"Number 16 – three million one!"

"Number 32 – four million!"

"Number 16 – four million one!"

"Number 32 – five million!"

"Number 16 – five million one!"

Seeing the man was about to raise again, Natalia hurriedly stopped him.

She'd just noticed that the person competing with them at the front row was also a woman.

If someone else liked it, then forget it! There was no need to spend five million on a hairpin. She knew that Archie was rich, but money wasn't supposed to be spent this way.

She lowered her voice and hurriedly said, "Forget it, let's let her have it!"
