Chapter 485: Miss Morris Helps Her Male God Trick His Brother!!
"This world is crazy, a million for this lousy painting? Even ten thousand feels pricey!""Isn’t this the lady who walked the red carpet with Camden from Summit International? Summit truly has deep pockets! President Saxton is so generous, spending a million on a broken painting for his woman!"
"Is that lady really President Saxton’s woman? Wow, to make a beauty smile, President Saxton is really willing to spend!"
The host was clearly stunned by the jump from a million to ten million, taking several seconds to collect himself before sealing the deal with the crowd: "Ten million, going once! Ten million, going twice! Any more bids?"
As if anyone would bid more!
The crowd was consumed with envy and sarcasm.
Howard Saxton sat on the chair, his face clouded, "Damn it! Jorge and his sister are doing this on purpose!!"
He had his eyes on Lydia’s painting, planning to spend a million to buy it and show her he’s got money, so she’d stop playing coy. That’s why he immediately bid a million! For an ordinary painting, a million was already a high bid.
And as expected, no one else bid higher! But who would have thought Jorge wouldn’t bid, and at the last moment, Ariel swooped in and snatched his painting!
These siblings are definitely doing this on purpose! First a painting, next it’ll be the family estate!
Howard’s cold gaze shifted to Ariel and Jorge.
Jorge didn’t expect his sister to bid either, let alone straight up to ten million!!
Jorge turned, looking at his sister.
Ariel cleared her throat, "Well... Brother, can I borrow your card? I don’t have the money."
Jorge: ".... My sister, you bid ten million..."
No money, yet dared to bid ten million, only his sister had such guts!
Ariel pursed her lips, teasing Jorge, "I just really like it, this painting, isn’t it beautifully done ----- so full of meaning! ---- Brother, do you dare say it’s not nice?"
Jorge fell silent, his eyes glancing toward Lydia in the front row, nodding, his voice a bit deep, "It’s nice."
Lydia’s work, how could it not be nice?
Ariel’s lips curved into a mischievous smile, "Was this ten million worth it? Is this painting worth it?"
Jorge nodded again, "Worth it."
To him, Lydia’s work was priceless, forget ten million!
Ariel smiled sweetly, holding out her palm, "Shell out the money! Since it’s worth it, let’s buy it back to hang at Clearflower Estate!"
Jorge: ".... Camden will handle it soon, you’ve bid, how could your brother not pay?"
Ariel sneered, sitting quietly, not wanting to speak further.
Brother, it’s you who wants it, I was just helping you save face, alright? You make it sound like you cherish me so much! But actually, those old feelings matter way more than a sister~~~
Meanwhile, Howard and Susan watched Ariel’s sweet smile, feeling irritated no matter how they looked.
Susan sneered, "Ariel Morris, let’s see how long you can brag! Keep showing off! Once I win over Arlo Seys, let’s see how you’ll laugh!"
Howard’s face was icy cold, "Ariel Morris, Jorge Saxton! What right do you have to meddle with my things? Lydia and the Saxton Family belong to me! I’ll definitely take them! I am the rightful Saxton heir, who do you think you are, Jorge?! Vanished for twenty years, and now you think you can come back and seize the estate? I won’t let you have your way!!"
In the following auction, Ariel bid for several more items, and when Camden handed the bill to Jorge, Jorge glared at his sister, complaining, "Ariel, you’re helping your crush dig a hole for your brother, aren’t you?"
Tonight’s charity auction, a third of the charitable funds were donated by Jorge Saxton, yet the glory went to the organizers!
