Chapter 80 Auction
Erika had a wide connection, so many people came. There were even top stars in the entertainment industry and rich businessmen in the business industry.
The venue was very large, and Jazmine’s seat was in the corner. Erika arranged it on purpose because she knew that Jazmine liked to stay alone.
The banquet was divided into two parts: the party and the dinner. The auction would be held first, and then the meal would follow. The auction would start soon.
Jazmine saw Giancarlo appear.
Wherever he went, he would be the center of attention. This time, it had no difference. When he entered, he caused a bit of a flap. However, his cold face made people dare not to get close to him.
But some people didn’t dare to get close to him because of Yoselin, who was beside him.
Tonight, Yoselin was wearing a white strapless mermaid dress and carrying a white bag. At first glance, she looked noble and pure. But if one looked closely, one would doubt if she was going to a funeral.
Jazmine stared at Yoselin with interest and even changed her position to sit.
The auction began.
Erika hosted it. She did it well, warmed up the place, and made many people laugh. Of course, didn’t laugh. He had such a cold face that people would doubt if he was going to a funeral too.
A few people bid for the first few items. It was not too boring.
In the middle of the auction, there came a necklace.
Giancarlo
It was a sapphire necklace. To be honest, there were a few such necklaces in Jazmine’s drawer. Moreover, they were bigger and more delicate than this one.
Jazmine did not like this necklace at all.
But Jazmine noticed Yoselin.
As soon as the necklace appeared, Yoselin stared at it tightly. She showed the booklet to Giancarlo and said something with the brightest smile.
Giancarlo only glanced at the booklet and did not say anything.
Yoselin’s face was full of joy, and her eyes were shining.
Jazmine smiled faintly. Yoselin was so happy. She really wanted to see if Yoselin could still be so happy after losing the bid.
Jazmine had wanted to buy the ring in a low–key manner, but it seemed that she had to be high–key now.
“This necklace came from the famous Lacy. A friend of mine donated it. The starting price is 150 thousand
dollars, and each time, the price can be raised by 15 thousand dollars. Does anyone like it?”
Yoselin raised her plate with great pleasure.
Erika saw this and nodded at Giancarlo.
Giancarlo also pursed his lips and nodded at Erika.
It made Jazmine very surprised that Erika could get respect from Giancarlo.
“The lady holding plate 001 bids. 165 thousand dollars.”
A few people also bid.
Yoselin raised the price to 300 thousand dollars.
Erika had already started counting. “300 thousand dollars twice. Anyone else wants to bid?”
Erika raised the hammer and was ready to strike.
The price of 300 thousand dollars was a bit high for this necklace. It was worth less than that. However, this was a charity. The prices would be raised a little. If other people wanted to donate more, they would continue
to bid.
No one raised their plate because they wanted to show respect to Giancarlo. After all, his future wife wanted
this necklace. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Even though they were not married yet, they had a child. In the past five years, she had been with him, so they had to respect her.
Just as Erika’s hammer was about to strike down, Jazmine raised her hand.
When Erika saw Jazmine raise her plate, she was extremely surprised.
However, Erika could only continue to host, “The lady over there, 213, bids. 315 thousand dollars once.”
Yoselin was so pissed, but she was unwilling to give up, so she raised her plate again.
Before Erika could call out, Jazmine raised her plate again.
Erika could only report the current price immediately. “345 thousand dollars once.”
Yoselin looked back angrily. She wanted to see who was blind enough to not even respect Giancarlo. Didn’t that person see that he was sitting right next to her?
No matter what, Yoselin raised her plate again.
That person didn’t seem to want to let go. The price came to 750 thousand dollars.
It was more than twice the real value of the necklace, but the two seemed to have no intention of stopping.
Giancarlo smelled something unordinary. That person seemed to come at him. He respected Erika and stopped Yoselin from bidding.
Yoselin was very unwilling. She pouted and said, “Actually, I don’t really want that necklace. I’m just angry. You are right here, but that person doesn’t respect you and deliberately goes against you.‘
Giancarlo did not speak.
Over the past few years, Yoselin was used to Giancarlo’s silence. She could only guess his mood from his expression.
Now that his face was gloomy, she knew that he was angry and could only shut up reluctantly.
Erika did not know what was going on. According to the process, Jazmine got the necklace, so she had to come to the stage to take the certificate representing this item.
When the auction ended, Jazmine would go backstage to get the item.
“The lady who got this item, please come up on stage. Now, this necklace belongs to you.‘
Jazmine was wearing a low–cut tight dress today. Her black dress was inlaid with sequins. Her figure was perfect. At this moment, she looked so sexy, making everyone present shocked.
Yoselin was unhappy to see this.
She had never expected that the person who snatched the necklace from her would be Jazmine.
750 thousand dollars!
Did Jazmine have 750 thousand dollars?
Was she that rich?
Yoselin quickly turned back to look at Giancarlo, and this glance made her feel like falling into the ice.
She was used to seeing his calm and indifferent eyes. But now, those eyes seemed to have been enlivened again, shining with an excited light.
This almost made Yoselin lose control.
Yoselin pinched her thigh in time to calm herself down. At the same time, she was glad that she had seen that bitch today so that she would not lose control and embarrass herself in front of that bitch.
Yoselin tidied herself up and said in the most pleasantly surprised tone, “Is that Ms. Gardner? I didn’t expect to see her here. No, I should say, I didn’t expect to see her in my lifetime.”
The excitement in her tone made the people around her curious about Jazmine’s identity.
Jazmine had already reached the stage. When she took the necklace, she looked at it carefully.
She shook her head regretfully. “When I was watching from the audience, I thought it was a rare necklace. I didn’t expect it to disappoint me. Of course, I’m not talking about the workmanship. I’m talking about the
material of this necklace. It is not worth 750 thousand dollars.”
Erika was a little unhappy. Jazmine was giving her a hard time by saying this.
But then, Jazmine said, “But this is Erika’s auction. Even if it was a straw, it would be worth 750 thousand
dollars. From now on, everyone should stay alert. If I see something I like, I will definitely get it.
