I Divorced You Now You Beg (Thalia and Darion) novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128

Thalia pressed her lips together tightly. ‘He blocked the divorce lawsuit route too, she thought. ‘How am I supposed to get way from him now?’

Her head throbbed with frustration.

That afternoon, Wendy called, “The auction’s tonight. Are you ready, Thalia?”

Thalia nodded even though Wendy couldn’t see her. “Yeah, I’m all set.”

I’ll come pick you up then,” Wendy said.

Sure.

Thalia left work early and headed straight to the auction venue.

The venue was grand and already buzzing with guests. An emcee stood at the podium on the main stage, and every attendee held a glossy catalog in their hands.

Wendy flipped through the catalog until she found the sapphire earrings. “Starting bid’s a million dollars. Goes up by about 50 thousand each round. If nothing crazy happens, we should be able to get them for under 2.5 million dollars.”

Thalia studied the catalog as well, her gaze steady and resolute.

Suddenly, a commotion rippled through the room.

Thalia and Wendy turned to see what was happening, and Darion was walking through the entrance.

Darion wore a tailored black suit that fit him perfectly, and his handsome face and refined movements commanded

ittention.

Miya clung to his arm in a black evening gown, her smile poised and graceful.

Those two assholes!” Wendy spat out without hesitation.

Thalia gripped the catalog tighter, and a sinking feeling hit her. She thought, ‘Why is he here? And why did he bring Miya with him?”

Wendy was still going off. “Why do these two show up everywhere? It’s like they’re haunting us.”

Thalia grabbed her hand, and her voice came out tight. “Why would they come here?”

Who the hell knows?” Wendy shot back. “Probably wants to make sure everyone knows he’s screwing around with that bitch. They love parading it around.”

Thalia didn’t respond and just kept her eyes on Darion, her expression unreadable.

He seemed to sense her watching him and glanced her way, but his eyes moved on almost immediately.

Her heart sank even lower.

The venue was packed with business elites who all knew Darion and Thalia.

Chapter 128

None of them had expected Danion to show up arm in arm with Miya while Thalia arrived separately with a friend

The complicated situation was bound to make people curious and start digging for gossip.

But when people looked at Thalia, their eyes held pity and sympathy.

It didn’t make her feel any better.

She felt like the discarded wife forced to watch her husband flaunt his mistress in public.

Those pitying stares felt like slaps across her face.

Thalia found it amusing and pushed down her irritation. She turned to leave.

Wendy grabbed her arm. “Thalia, why are we leaving? Let’s go up there and confront them!”

Thalia shook her head. “I’m here for the earrings, not drama. We can deal with them some other time.”

Wendy was still fuming, but she had no choice but to let it go for now.

The auction started soon after.

The auctioneer introduced each item one by one, and when the sapphire earrings finally came up, Thalia’s palms were sweating.

The auctioneer finished the description, and bidding began.

Thalia held paddle number 30. She raised it immediately.

The auctioneer said, “Number 30, 1.15 million dollars.
