Rebirth: Marry the Enemy of My Badass Husband novel Chapter 7

“Your fiancée is beautiful. Do keep an eye on her.”

Gianna’s facial expression slightly changed.

What a wicked man.

Didn’t he worry that he would bring himself huge trouble?

Caesar watched his leaving and said with contempt, “What a good-for-nothing waste.”

Gianna pursed her lips.

Luckily Caesar was proud. He probably would not imagine she would hang out with that kind of man.

But…

Gianna let out a grim smile.

That so-called “good-for-nothing waste” was the one you could not defeat no matter what tricks you use!

“Let’s go.” Gianna held his arm and both of them entered the banquet hall.

Gianna was obviously much more active than before when they returned to the hall.

She would greet and talk to guests who passed by courteously, sipping wine. She did absolutely well in terms of the upper-class society etiquettes.

Caesar was still a little surprised by her change and he could not help but ask, “Gina, I really think you’ve changed a lot. You’re never good at talking to strangers before, and now you’re a natural.”

It was not that she could not. She was just unwilling to do so.

She smiled. “You’re too bright, that’s why I have to make effort too.”

That was obviously her praise to him.

Caesar felt delighted and he said, “Silly girl, didn’t the reason I become so bright is to let you live a better life?”

Gianna smiled and did not say anything.

“Not to mention my heart will ache to see you learn how to socialize.”

“I won’t push myself too far.” Gianna really hated his hypocrisy.

Just then, the light of the hall went off.

The charity auction for tonight officially began.

A man walked towards the centre of the stage and was instantly spotlighted.

“Good evening everyone! I’m honored to have all of you here for our annual charity dinner in Kouby City. I hereby thank all of you for your attendance on behalf of the charity organization of Kouby City…” His fancy speech attracted everyone’s attention.

After finishing his introductory speech, without further adieu, the host introduced the auction items accordingly and started the auction tonight.

Soft talking sounds were heard under the stage.

Caesar took the initiative to ask Gianna, “Is there anything that you like? I could give you as a wedding gift.”

Gianna’s eyes twitched a little.

She remembered back then when the charity auction began, Caesar did make a phone call to her and ask whether there was anything she liked. She said no, and Caesar gave one of the auction items he got to Megan. Megan “accidentally” exposed it and had stirred up some commotions in Kouby City. Gianna had even defended Caesar on her own Weibo page back then.

Having thought of it now, she felt herself a total moron.

She said, “I heard that the auction item for the finale tonight is the 80’s sapphire on Queen Diana’s tiara. I saw the picture, and I think it’s pretty.”

“Sure.” Caesar agreed to it straightaway.

He was actually a little surprised because Gianna never showed interest in those things. She was always thrifty for him. He had initially promised to bid and get a bunch of bracelets for Megan, therefore he was clearly lacking budget now.

Gianna pretended that she did not know that and she concentrated on the auction.

It was finally time to auction the last item.

The host gave a whole length of exaggerating introduction line and he hit the gavel. “Sapphire, starting at 5 million yuan, adding 100 thousand yuan. The auction starts, now!”

Many people started to bid at the hall. “6 million yuan!”

“6.5 million yuan!”

“6.8 million yuan!”

“10 million yuan!” A familiar man’s voice was heard in the dark.

It was not Caesar.

Caesar was going to raise his hand, but he was startled for one second when he heard the price.
