Chapter 102 

The starting price for the emerald jewelry was 1.5 million. 

Someone bid 2 million. 

Maggie was the second to raise her paddle: “2.3 million.” 

“2.5 million.” 

“3 million.” 

When Julia didn’t bid, both Maggie and Jessica breathed a sigh of relief. But just as Maggie was about to raise her paddle again, Julia raised hers instead. 

“5 million.” 

“!?” 

The room was filled with surprised gasps, and Julia calmly put her paddle down. 

Maggie clenched her fist, thought for a moment, and then raised her paddle: 

“6 million.” 

“6.5 million.” 

“7 million.” 

At this point, Maggie hesitated. 

Her grandmother’s 70th birthday was rare, and if she spent 8 million- 

Just as she thought this, Julia raised her paddle again: “12 million.” 

Maggie’s chest tightened. After catching her breath, she silently put her paddle down.

Perhaps everyone had already witnessed Franklin’s immense wealth. 

By now, no one else seemed willing to bid any higher. 

The item was once again claimed by Julia. 

The remaining lots were items that Maggie didn’t desire. But since the auction house had a 

rule that no one could leave before the event ended, Maggie had no choice but to stay in the 

auction hall. 

The remaining items were relatively expensive, and watching Franklin casually spend over 

360 million that night, Jessica couldn’t help but comment, 

“Does Franklin still want to bid? Even if he has money, he can’t be spending it like this, can 

he? For that mistress, he’s really not holding back at all.” 

Maggie couldn’t answer those questions. 

However, the answer came soon enough: Franklin didn’t bid again. 

After the auction ended, Maggie and Jessica left the hall. 

As they were leaving, Maggie didn’t glance at Franklin again. 

But Jessica, who was paying attention to the other side, saw Rex walking over to Franklin 

and Julia, greeting them. 

As Maggie and Jessica walked out of the auction hall, an elder whom Jessica knew 

approached them. 

After some pleasantries, the elder’s gaze fell on Maggie, and with a gentle tone, asked, “Jessie, this young lady looks unfamiliar. May I ask which family she’s from?” 

Jessica proceeded to introduce Maggie. 

The noblewoman listened, her smile fading slightly. “So, she’s the niece of Mr. Miller? She really is quite striking…”

The elder was somewhat familiar with the Miller family. 

She had heard that Mr. Miller’s sister had struggled emotionally in her youth and had been 

poor mental health, mostly residing in a sanatorium over the years. 

in 

Maggie was so beautiful and seemed gentle in nature, and if her academic qualifications were decent, even if her mother had mental health issues, it wouldn’t be a major problem. 

Unfortunately, the Miller family’s business had been on the decline for the past two years. 

Despite Jason’s continuous efforts for the company, the chances of Miller Corporation bouncing back were slim. 

With these two significant drawbacks, no matter how beautiful Maggie was and how much the noblewoman liked her, she would never be able to enter her family’s door. 

Such a pity… 

Though the noblewoman didn’t say anything directly, both Maggie and Jessica could clearly 

sense her implication. 

The noblewoman still had more to say to Jessica, so they didn’t leave right away. 

At this point, Franklin, Julia, and Rex walked out of the auction hall. 

Rex reached out to Franklin and Julia. “I have something to attend to, I’ll leave first. Let’s 

chat next time.” 

Franklin nodded. “Next time.” 

Rex nodded and left with his friends. 

As more people came to greet Franklin, he turned to face Maggie. Their eyes met. 

Maggie paused for a moment and turned her face away first. 

Franklin also withdrew his gaze and started talking to the people who had approached him.

Julia, noticing Franklin’s continued indifference toward Maggie, slowly curved her lips into 

a smile. 

After talking for more than ten minutes, Jessica was getting thirsty. 

She and Maggie went over to the drinks area to get something to wet their throats before 

leaving.
