Reclaiming the CEO's Heart novel Chapter 92

Chapter 92 The Adams Mansion

Isabella took her seat, and the lights in the venue dimmed. Layla lowered her voice and threatened, "Isabella, don't push your luck."

"Huh? Is this considered pushing my luck? I thought it was announcing your identity as a homewrecker that would be pushing my luck."

The dim light fell on Layla's face, making her look pale. Isabella smiled happily. "You can't stand me, huh? But you can't do anything to me. Layla, I have prepared evidence for all the things you've done. If you dare to provoke me and Avy again, I can't guarantee that I won't make it public. If I were you, having gained an advantage, I'd behave myself and stop showing off outside."

Layla glared at her fiercely but didn't dare say another word.

Avery didn't expect to encounter Jacob again so soon after parting ways with him.

There was no communication between them, appearing as though they were strangers to each other in the eyes of others.

They maintained the same cold indifference, not caring about others' bidding at all.

After all, the liveliness belonged to others; it had nothing to do with them.

As the auction of the exhibits drew near its end, Rudolf personally took the stage to host.

"The next item up for auction has a long history, spanning a hundred years."

A picturesque ancient garden mansion appeared on the large screen.

The Adams Mansion was built by the ancestors of the Adams family and later redesigned and renovated, preserving history while adding some modern touches. The most critical factor was its excellent location.

It was situated in the busiest area of the city, making it ideal for personal use or business purposes.

Avery saw the familiar courtyard with plum blossoms about to bloom. She remembered Martin burying many bottles of wine under the tree, saying he would wait until she got married and had a child before digging them up to drink.

He dug up a bottle of wine when she got married, but he never got to see her have a child.

Rudolf said, "The starting price is 0.2 billion. Feel free to bid if interested. It's impossible to find another mansion in this location."

Avery and Jacob raised their paddles simultaneously. "0.4 billion."
