The Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 30

Chapter 30 Throw Money Around

Waverly was so distraught that she couldn’t even speak through her tears.

Standing off to the side. Shanice was quick to play the victim, exaggerating and embellishing the story.

“It’s all because of Raylee. She’s really impressive now, isn’t she? She’s even got Jeremiah backing her up! She saw us and took revenge on us! Look at what she’s done to my face! She’s acting like she’s in charge, ordering Jeremiah to lay his hands on me!” Shanice sand.

Waverly was sobbing uncontrollably, expressing her feelings of injustice.

“Mr. Lormer even threatened to have me and Shanice thrown into prison. I really don’t know what I did to upset Raylee. Why does she have to treat me and Shanice this way?”

Merely complaining was not enough.

Shanice even pulled out a video taken by a bystander, and it perfectly captured the moment when Raylee slapped her.

Just like that, Raylee was caught on camera assaulting someone, and she seemed to have crossed the line. With video. evidence supporting Shanice’s claim, there seemed to be no room for denial.

Samuel and Casimir had utterly grim expressions on their faces.

Even though Shanice and Waverly were thrown out, they were still brought back to the banquet by those two men.

At that moment, the auction had already begun.

The four of them had no choice but to take their seats first. They decided to wait until the auction was over before they would settle the score with Raylee,

Waverly was still crying her heart out. Samuel gently parted her back and consoled her, “Don’t be upset anymore. I will ensure justice for you. There’s also a rare pink diamond going up for auction tonight. The starting bid is in the tens of millions. I’ve decided to bid and gift it to you

Waverly immediately ceased crying, playfully clinging outo Samuel’s arm and saying, “Really? Samuel, you’re too kind to me! I love you!”

Samuel, doting as he was, fondly ruffled her hair.

Samuel turned his head again to look at Casimir, asking, “Gasimir, have you taken a liking to any of the items?”

In essence, he was trying to convey a suggestion to Casimir to casually pick something out and give it to Waverly in hopes of winning her favor.

However, the dense man simply shook his head. “No,”

Samuel’s brows were deeply furrowed.

After that, Casimir added, “I recall Old Mrs. Goodridge donating an antique ring, didn’t she? Since it’s an item from the Goodridge family, it would be best not to let it end up in the hands of strangers. If necessary, I’ll help you make a no–limit

bid

“Casimir, why are you so interested in my grandma’s belongings? Do you want to win her favor? Or is there an ulterior motive?” Samuel asked with a hint of sarcasm.

Casimir shook his head, choosing not to say anything more.

The auction was in full swing.

Kaylee glanced around but didn’t see any sign of Jeremiah. Hence, she quietly sat down, waiting for Vera’s ring to appear.

“Up next, we have a jewel of exceptional quality, a pink diamond weighing in at fifty carats, known as the Star of Tears. This is

your bids

As the host’s words fell, Samuel’s voice echoed. “Twenty million!”

Finished

Raylee glanced at him, noticing the excitement on Waverly’s face beside him. It’s so obvious that he’s bidding on it for averly

Raylee shifted her gaze away.

Once upon a time. Samuel also used to throw money around, even flying thousands of miles abroad. to secure something she cherished

However, all of that was in the past.

At that time, in both Samuel’s eyes and heart, there was only his beloved younger sister, Waverly.

That pink diamond was quite the hot item, with several bigwigs bidding for it at the same time. The price had already skyrocketed to sixty million.

It was the game of wealth. In their eyes, the price called out was merely a number.

Samuel continued to bid, saying. “Eighty million!”

The man wearing glasses, who was seated next to Raylee, simply made a gesture.

The people around him looked at him in surprise. “A no–limit bid?”

A no–limit bid was a term used in the auction industry. It meant that regardless of how high the bidding price went, the person making this gesture would buy the item at any cost.

Waverly was a worldly woman, and recognizing the gesture, she knew she had no chance with that pink diamond. Her face instantly fell with overwhelming disappointment

Samuel was not ready to give up. With a stern expression, he called out a few more bids, only to eventually stop, visibly frustrated

In the end, the bespectacled man secured the pink diamond at the cost of two hundred million.

Samuel comforted Waverly by saying. “There are two more high–quality, popular pieces of jewelry coming up. I’ll bid on them for you.”

However, the surprising turn of events was that both of those popular pieces of jewelry were snatched up by the bespectacled man when he made no–limit bids

Waverly didn’t manage to get a single thing, which left her absolutely fuming.

Without realizing it, Raylee stole a few more glances at the bespectacled man beside her. Who is this man? He’s spending a fortune without even batting an eye.

Before long, the antique ring donated by Vera was presented.

Before Raylee could even place a bid, she heard Casimir making several bids, each time glancing her way as he did so. What is Carimir doing? Could it be that he knows that’s Grandma’s ring?

When Raylee was lost in thought, the bespectacled man made another no–limit bid.

Crp Raylee belatedly realized that she had lost Vera’s family heirloom.

Casimir was taken aback as well. He didn’t think that the bespectacled man would be interested in rare jewels and antique pieces at the same time.
