Chapter 188 Why Regret?
“No need, this amount of money is nothing.” Aylin took a sip of water and immediately raised her
sign.
“37,500 dollars.”
Upon seeing her spending so generously, someone couldn’t help but whisper, “Has she gone mad? This painting, which seems to have nothing special, is not worth the price. Isn’t it enough just to
take a look?”
Only a few people who wanted to buy that painting to hang it up were new to embroidery and hesitated. They had witnessed the financial power of the daughter of the Koch family and knew they couldn’t compete, so they willingly stepped aside.
The host said, “37,500 dollars for one time!”
Everyone’s gaze naturally shifted towards Gavyn.
People may not care about the items, but they are still interested in gossip. They are all curious to see if Gavyn will compete with Aylin in the auction this time.
The auctioneer continued, “37,500 dollars for the second time!”
Did he not like that painting just now?
“Is there anyone else interested in this exhibit? If not, then…”
Just as the auctioneer was about to close the deal with a bang of his gavel, Gavyn calmly raised his sign, his voice not loud but resounding. “45,000 dollars.”
He wasn’t wasting time when he was examining it earlier; the embroidery was truly exceptional in terms of technique, color, and layout. It was a rare masterpiece.
It’s probably because there are few people in the market who can truly appreciate its value, which is why it hasn’t encountered a buyer who knows how to appreciate it.
Gavyn felt that he was the one who could truly appreciate this beautiful portrait, providing it with a perfect place to call home.
But, it seems that Aylin thought the same way.
She turned her head and glared at him irritably, “You’re competing for this too?”
Gavyn snatched the necklace to give to Laila, and although she was annoyed, she could understand. After all, to win a woman’s heart, one must choose something both beautiful and expensive.
The first time could be explained as a coincidence, but this time, they’re genuinely looking for
trouble!

Gavyn didn’t understand the rarity of ancient embroidery techniques. In the three years since she married into the Delacruz family, they hadn’t even collected a single embroidered piece, which showed that they had no interest in this field
What’s with the pretense now, acting like a big shot!
Aylin frowned, “Mr. Delacruz, handcrafted embroidery is different from gemstones. You don’t understand the intricacies of it, so wouldn’t it be a waste to buy it?”
“Do you even understand its value?” Gavyn glanced at her, his handsome eyebrows and eyes exuding an air of noble aloofness. “It’s obvious that you knew I had my eye on this painting first,
and you deliberately bid on it just to spite me.
Only giving it to you would be a true waste of resources.”
She was dumbfounded.
Aylin almost burst into laughter at his remark, glancing at him with a raised eyebrow. “Can you even distinguish the shades of the embroidery, or tell how many layers the stitches should have?
How dare you criticize me when you know nothing
Gavyn’s lips curved slightly, “Simple things don’t prove much. When it comes to the difference. between boudoir embroidery and workshop embroidery, you get dizzy. I advise you not to lose face
out of stubbornness.”
An arrogant maniac!
Aylin felt that this person was impossible to communicate with, their narcissism and arrogance were beyond redemption!
She didn’t say anything more, silently turning around and decisively raising the stakes, “Ibid. 75,000 dollars!”
“Did they really start fighting?”
“Did Mr. Delacruz and Ms. Koch have some kind of disagreement before? Why do they seem so tense when they meet?”
“Didn’t that happen earlier in the side hall? Mr. Delacruz was speaking up for Ms. Koch, right?”
“I cannot understand…’
The audience watching the play couldn’t help but exchange glances and whisper to one another.
The confrontation between the Delacruz Group CEO and the daughter of the Koch family was even more interesting than the auction itself. It was definitely worth attending this event.
The brand representatives were astonished. Their company was just a small brand, persisting in
following the traditional cultural path and being squeezed by other markets, yet they hadn’t made a
name for themselves.
Unexpectedly, this exhibit actually managed to attract someone who truly appreciates its value, and the price even showed an upward trend. The person in charge couldn’t help but shed tears of joy.
at the thought.
The auctioneer’s voice was filled with excitement, “75,000 dollars for one time!”
Gavyn, unwilling to show weakness, quickly threw out his own price. “82,500 dollars.”
The crowd erupted in astonishment once again, with some people staring wide-eyed at the painting. “What kind of priceless treasure is this? Even if it were coated in real gold, it wouldn’t be worth this much. Besides, there’s nothing particularly extraordinary about it, right?”

Terrible ending, so she has helped out a model and an actor get started. Her “brothers” are not protecting her, her ex loves her dearly and she loves him but has never bothered to tell him what happened to her with amnesia to clear the air on their marriage that could be fixed the second time around. Readers want the romance and love of the story, not ridiculous violence, manipulation and deception. Make it right, finish the story with a grand wedding and a child of their own....
Come-on, her not knowing anything about herself and he knowing nothing about her, any wealthy man would think that way. Aylin is being totally unfair to Gavyn as it was his mother and sister who were deliberately lying to him and treating her like crap. Make it right!...
Wow, enough… why do you make the heroine out to be a hooker and allow the bixens to look like upstanding women? Shameless. Get the two who actually love each other back together and stop the nonsense. Since when does a mother arrange for her son’s wife, despicable. And rather sickening, obviously Gavyn’s mother is an idiot!...
Relationships based on lies… despicable women.. find the newsreel where Alton was actually the one who saved Gavyn and send it to him. Leila needs to go...
It's been almost a year since the last chapter. Is this story going to be completed?...
