The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 2036

Clayton stood there looking like a gentleman.

His self-confidence, tenderness, elegance, and reserve gave others the feeling that Clayton was someone who could compete with Eric Ferguson in Atlanta.

Nicole did not seem to feel anything when the bidding price increased.

She stood there quietly as she thought, 'Is it too wasteful to use this diamond as a brooch?'

The woman next to Eric could no longer stand still.

The bidding price was already close to $ 200 million...

At first, Cheryl felt excited, but now, she began to panic and felt guilty.

Cheryl thought that her passing comment triggered Eric's interest in bidding.

She tugged at Eric’s sleeve and said in a low voice, “Forget it, Mr. Ferguson. I don't like it that much...”

Her brother, Gerard, would reprimand her if he found out about this.

Eric frowned, glanced at her without saying anything, and continued to bid.

It seemed like he would not give up until he achieved his goal.

Cheryl was apprehensive.

She seemed a little excited, but also a little nervous.

However, the people in the hall watched this scene with a smile.

They did not gossip blatantly because Cheryl was Eric’s companion.

It was incredibly demoralizing for a woman to persuade a man to stop bidding.

On the other hand, Nicole was calm as she stood beside Clayton. Although she did not say a word, she had a self-confident presence. Clayton and Nicole complemented each other very well.

The bidding price suddenly reached $400 million.

Nicole instantly returned to her senses.

She interrupted the contest between Clayton and Eric and offered a price with a smile. Everyone looked at her in astonishment.

Undoubtedly, Nicole offered the highest price of the night.

Clayton did not continue to bid as soon as Nicole offered a price.

Eric was also strangely silent.

This silent contest ended, and everyone watched excitedly.

There seemed to be no winners or losers.

After all, no one would offer a higher price than Nicole.

The raw diamond ended up in Nicole’s hands.

Cheryl could not help but glance at Nicole a few more times with undisguised envy in her eyes.

Nicole smiled >e’:VKQ: accepted everyone's attention.

Eric bought a ring in the next segment of the auction.

This ring had a special meaning, so the women present were amazed. An eligible bachelor like Eric buying a ring could only mean that he was getting married, right?

They wondered who the lucky woman was.

Cheryl recovered from the disappointment of not getting the diamond because this ring was more attractive to her.

She was Eric's female companion, so she was excitedly looking forward to Eric giving her the ring.

The manager asked the bodyguard to bring the raw diamond. He then found Nicole and congratulated her.

Nicole honestly felt that this raw diamond was worth the price she offered, so she stopped the bid when the price reached a certain level.

She glanced at Clayton. Clayton then took out his card very sensibly.

The manager smiled and thought that Clayton was the ultimate winner.

If it was not for Nicole making the bid, how could Eric give up?

"Mr. Sloan, Ms. Stanton, do you need a bodyguard to deliver it to your home?"

They offered such services.

Nicole smiled, picked up the priceless raw diamond, and casually put it in her bag.

She patted her bag and said with a smile,' There’s no need for all that trouble.”

Clayton nodded and looked at the manager with a smile.

"Thank you. We’ll take it away by ourselves."

The manager maintained a calm expression, but he secretly felt a strong admiration and envy for them.

There were many rich people, but there were very few like them who did not care about money.

Toward the end of the auction, Clayton took the tea set he bought for his father-in-law and asked them to bring it to the car beforehand.

Nicole greeted several high-society ladies she recognized in the circle.

It was inappropriate for Clayton to follow Nicole, so he waited not far away.

Clayton noticed Eric's female companion coming out of the bathroom alone and looking dispirited.
