The bidding price now far exceeded the value of the necklace itself.
The scene was once a bit chaotic. Everyone looked at Mr. Warner and then looked at Mr. Henderson.
The heavy smell of smoke filled the air everywhere, and it was clear that the two big moneymakers had brought their private grudges from outside into the charity party.
At the time Luther quoted a price of 200 million.
She felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Two hundred million for a necklace? Crazy!
Although the money was ultimately donated to the orphanage, they still had other ways to donate. There was no need to start a war at the charitable party!
"Three hundred million."
Justin didn't even blink, and his face was expressionless when he just raised his offer.
This brought the room to an even greater boil, with the whispers almost overriding the voice of the host.
The host's glasses were falling off and he repeatedly asked Justin to confirm, "Mr. Henderson, is it true that you're bidding 300 million?"
Raising the price by 100 million at a time, was this some money burning game of the rich?
Now everyone turned their full attention to Luther.
This was no longer an auction, but a contest between top tycoons.
They were all looking forward to seeing what price Mr. Warner would offer.
Under the anxious and excited eyes of the whole audience…
Luther's thin lips were slightly open, and he was just about to say the word "five".
Suddenly, Joyce lunged forward and poked Luther hard with a chopstick in his arm.
Luther therefore couldn't lift the card, and the "five" he wanted to say turned into a muffled grunt. "Ah!"
Joyce gnashed her teeth behind him and chanted, "What do you need that old necklace for? It's sick."
Knowing it was Joyce behind him, Luther turned around and whispered.
"An old necklace? Didn't you want it?" It was obvious that she had looked at it a few more times. How come it became just an old necklace now? In her eyes, were antiques just old stuff?
Comments
The readers' comments on the novel: Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther)
If this is the ending of this story the story then I wish I hadn’t started reading it doesn’t even end right has not closure. To bad these writers don’t put much into their endings....
When will the new chapters come I can't wait any longer...
Very strange ending, is Joyce pregnant again or does she still have remnants of the devil with her. Christian should have apologized and made up with Luther and Felix. Too much violence and twists and turns, once settled, everyone should be happy and healthy....
Omg… can’t you just let Luther and Joyce live in peace with their children….another controversy doesn’t add to the story....
Not again, ugh … just get rid of this disgusting despicable woman...
Hopefully the underground bio lab East523will be found soon and Luther will make a full recovery, Lily will be reunited with the family and all will be good. Otherwise this will be a very disappointing story....
Please don’t make more trouble for Joyce and Luther, they need to have their children and be happy...
Looking forward to Joyce shooting Otis where it will hurt him the most and end his disgusting ways with women. He’s a pig, deserves to lose his “unit”....
Just tell him you’re the one that saved him , not the evil woman and find your beautiful love story together. Quit being a wet blanket, too smart for that....
I hate it when the hero and heroine are made out to be fools for the evil people that wish to steal their lives and live. Hopefully Charlotte is found out quickly and removed. Why should a villain with an illegitimate child reap all the rewards. Terrible....
