Winner Takes All novel Chapter 197

As time passed.

The crowd in the auction grew.

The lights in the private rooms on the second floor lit up one after another.

However, due to the special design of the private room, outsiders would not be able to see the person sitting in them.

Jack ignored Yael and Vinna who were flirting.

He scrolled through his phone and sent a message to Amber, “I want to give you a gift.”

“What gift? (Happy)”, Amber replied at an instant.

Jack replied, “You’ll know when you get it.”

After sending out the message, he muted his phone and placed it in his pocket.

He watched the auction stage lit up as he leaned back in his seat.

The auction was about to start.

Jack was persistent on getting the “Blue Ocean Teardrop” that would be auctioned last.

That was the gift he was going to give Amber.

He did not consider the price at all. The auction would not sell items with extremely high value, moreover, he was rich.

“Mr. Hughes. The private room is a little hot.”

Vinna said in a clinger manner suddenly, “Can you ask your bodyguard to leave? I want to adjust my dress to cool myself down.”

Yael’s eyes lit up at once, but he immediately looked distressed.

Vinna recognized the wrong person. He did not dare to ask Jack to leave.

A smile rose on Jack’s face.

The Vaughn family of the capital was indeed worthy of being in the entertainment industry. Even the young lady of the family acted in such a way.

“Vinna, it’s okay. He’s my friend.”

Yael spoke out abruptly.

Vinna was stunned.

He…he could even say that in such a situation?

Jack was caught off guard, and his face blushed. He coughed hard.

Then he stared at Yael. That bastard. How could he even say that?

Yael knew he had said something awkward. He blushed as he pointed at the auction stage. “The auction is about to begin. Let’s focus on the auction.”

Vinna glanced at Jack in annoyance.

With another person with them, she was unable to show her charm.

The Vaughn family was not among the top in the capital, but the entertainment industry that they own was the one and only tycoon in the industry.

However, they were nothing compared to the top families in the capital.

If they could get the attention of the Hughes family, or just the attention of the heir of the Hughes family, Jack, they could use the fame of the family for some time before the family announced their next head of the family.

She was willing to do anything for her family.

Not to mention. The “Jack” she was with at the moment was the type she liked.

All of a sudden.

The light of the auction stage lit up fully.

At the same time, the scattered lights at the rest of the auction site were dimmed.

All the lights were focused on the stage.

A tall and straight middle-aged man in a suit and shoes walked onto the stage with a smile.

The auction began officially!

It was the first time Jack participated in an auction. He observed the auction with interest.

But after looking at the few items sold, he lost interest. It was because the items sold on the auction was as he predicted. The items were something valuable for ordinary people, but it was nothing for him.

None from the second-floor private room bid either.

The ones who bid were all from the first floor.

He glanced at Yale and Vinna.

Both of them were almost about to cuddle onto each other, flirting.

From what Jack knew about Yael, if it wasn’t for him around them, Yael would be doing it with the lady at that moment.

“Mr.Hughes…”

Feeling Jack’s gaze, Vinna called out.

Yael was in an awkward situation, “He’s my friend. It’s okay.”

Vinna was speechless.

She was frustrated.

She had been flirting for so long, and he still cared about friendship?
