The Masterpiece of Leaving:Prepared A Perfect Stand-In For Him novel Chapter 43

I knew Diana didn't want to be humiliated like this, but this was Starlight Media's place, and they could arrange things however they wanted. If she caused trouble again, she wouldn't be able to stay here.

"Mom, let's go." She wasn't in the mood to explain and pulled Pamela outside.

I pursed my lips as if nothing had happened.

Not long after, Aubrey and Cathy approached.

They sat down.

Right next to me.

"Is that woman Navier?"

Finally, someone recognized me and spoke in a low voice.

"Didn't she marry Mr. Aubrey? Why..."

Although I had hidden myself for the past four years and never showed my face, back then, Cathy had deceived others and was caught by Aubrey and the reporters at the scene.

It was I who stood next to Aubrey and announced that we had peacefully broken up a long time ago. She was Aubrey's current girlfriend, and they were preparing to get married.

At that time, this was quite a big deal, and everyone had some memories associated with it.

The gazes of those around became silent as they turned their attention to me, Aubrey, Cathy, and Thomas. The scent of gossip grew stronger.

"Thank you for your concern, we have already divorced," I stood up to clarify.

Today, at least I maintained the image of Thomas's girlfriend, so I couldn't make everyone feel that Thomas was involved with a married woman.

Initially, Aubrey was indifferent, but my explanation made him furrow his brow.

His expression turned dark!

In his thoughts, I was bragging about being favored by another man right after my divorce.

I didn't care about what he was thinking. I sat down, bowed my head, and discussed the auction with Thomas.

The auction was about to begin.

"Aubrey, I want that diamond crown."

As the auctioneer raised the red fabric of the last lot, Cathy called out in a low voice.

That diamond crown was the most expensive item tonight, and it was also my planned auction item!

I had always been haunted by a dream of wearing a diamond crown and organizing a grand wedding with the person I loved the most.

Although that dream had faded away, my love for the crown had never wavered.

When Cathy said she wanted the diamond crown, her eyes turned towards me, carrying a challenging look on her bright and elegant face.

Did Cathy notice that I had been admiring that crown?

Snatching someone else's husband and wanting to take away what the other person cherished the most?

Of course, I wouldn't let it go.

When Cathy raised the bidding paddle, I also raised mine.

"8,100,000."

"8,200,000..."

The staff announced the price on the stage.

The starting price for this diamond crown was not low, and only Cathy and I bid for it.

The two of us aimed to win the diamond crown.

Another battle ensued.

Doing something meaningful once again...
