I looked up and saw Diana entering with my former mother-in-law, Pamela Smith.
Diana was looking at me with a disdainful expression.
At this time, not many people had entered the auction, and they were all chatting with the people they were interested in. They scattered around, and I was the only one sitting in the seat.
Diana still remembered the last time she lost miserably at the clothing store, seeing my performance was no different from seeing the enemy who killed her father in her eyes, and she had been harboring resentment towards me.
"Diana!" Pamela reminded.
Pamela was always most concerned about her image in front of others, always exuding elegance, solemnity, and nobility.
Diana maliciously blinked a few times, then took Pamela out, "Anyway, the auction hasn't started yet, Mom, why don't you go over there and see the art exhibition?"
The art exhibition and the auction would take place simultaneously.
"Alright." Pamela knew what Diana was planning, but she still walked out of the room.
Pamela had treated me in the same way before, so I wasn't surprised. I also ignored Diana, who came by smiling.
Diana turned back rudely, grabbed the auction list in my hand, and threw it on the ground, "Shameless person, even Fredrica was protecting you. Did you really think you came from Starlight Media? Is this a place where you can sit? Now, immediately give up your seat for me!"
I looked indifferent at Diana, "What if I don't?"
"No? I will let everyone know that you sneaked in without an invitation! At that time, security will throw you out and let's see which man is willing to pay attention to you!"
Diana's eyes fell on a clean outfit that someone had placed next to me, her eyes filled with malice.
She was certain that I had sneaked in under the guise of a cleaner.
I had also noticed that outfit earlier, but I didn't care about it, so I didn't ask anyone to take it away.
"Is that so?" I asked indifferently.
I had never been afraid of Diana, and in the past, due to my position in the family, I always maintained a very polite attitude towards her.
Now that we were divorced, there was no need to worry about anything anymore.
Since I was bored, I decided to play along with her.
I intentionally showed a worried look, "So... where should I sit?"
This fell right into Diana's trap.
She nodded towards a corner of the last row, "Do you see it? That's Done's seat, a perverted sixty-eight-year-old. You sit there, and he will pay attention to you. Maybe when he's in a good mood, he'll bring you back to be his mistress!"
Done was notorious for being lewd, having six lovers at home, causing trouble outside, and recently being diagnosed with AIDS.
Diana not only wanted to embarrass me but also wanted to kill me.
"That is... so what?" I was not bothered at all, slowly standing up.
Seeing me stand up, Diana laughed loudly, intending to embarrass me again, but I changed the subject, "Why don't you sit down?"
"You... How dare you order me to sit down! Let me see if I can kill you!"
Diana was very proud. She thought she was the most noble princess in the world, and I actually asked her to sit in that position, stay with that old, wrinkled, and dirty man!
How could she bear it? She raised her hand and intended to slap me.
I responded sharply, "Diana, there are surveillance cameras everywhere in this place, and it will be very embarrassing if it's captured on camera."
Diana's image in front of everyone was that of a wealthy, pure, and noble girl. How could she dare to humiliate others, even though she was angry enough to retract her hand.
"You just wait!" She failed to hit me, so she could only say heavily, "Today, I will definitely let you sit next to Done!"
