“Alright, the next item up for auction is a dress designed with a motif inspired by the Delft Blue porcelain, which
has a lot of historical ambiance and collectible value. The starting bid for this dress is 100 thousand dollars.”
“110 thousand dollars...”
“120 thousand dollars...”
“140 thousand dollars...”
Soon, the dress was bid up to 200 thousand dollars. Gilda also seized the right moment to bid 300 thousand
dollars.
When people around saw it was Gilda, they put down their paddles, not planning to continue bidding.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Jensen raised his paddle, ” 360 thousand dollars!”
This was Jensen's first bid of the night, but it was to snatch this dress from Gilda.
“Whoa, what a scene! Jensen and Gilda are actually competing?”
“A battle between a divorced couple? Guess who will win?”
“I'm suddenly looking forward to it!”

Gilda did not expect Jensen to bid. Her brow furrowed slightly, then she quickly added. “440 thousand dollars.”
Jensen also raised his paddle. “600 thousand dollars!”
He seemed determined not to give up until he achieved his goal.
Jensen's purpose for coming tonight was for this dress.
Because this dress originally belonged to the Harrington family.
Marilyn bought this dress when she got married but pawned it during the early difficult days of establishing
Harrington Corporation.
After Harrington Corporation overcits crisis, Jensen had always wanted to buy it back.
However, this dress had bought by a collector and was not for sale until it was auctioned today.
Jensen was determined to get it.
“800 thousand dollars!”
Gilda also wanted this dress. If this dress could be featured in the fashion show, it would definitely be stunning!
“1.2 million dollars!”
The two kept bidding without any hesitation, as if the hundreds of thousands were just a string of numbers to
them.
*16 million dollars...

“2 million dollars...”
“2.8 million dollars...”
Finally, the dress was bid up to four million dollars!
Jensen's brow furrowed deeply as he looked in Gilda’s direction. At that moment, however, Gilda’s attention was
non t at all but solely on winning the dress.
Jensen saw the longing in her eyes.
It was a longing for something she cherished.
“Mr. Harrington, it’s four million dollars now. Are you still following?” the host asked specially
Jensen clenched the paddle in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and finally put it back down.
“Okay, four million dollars for the first time.”
“Four million dollars for the second time...
“Four million dollars for the third time...

“Congratulations to Ms. Lynch for purchasing this dress at the price of four million dollars!”
As the host's words fell, Gilda also let out a deep sigh, finally securing the dress, albeit at several times the
intended price.
Everyone was also shocked.
Jensen actually conceded just like that?
Or did he still have saffection for Gilda?
People speculated wildly, but Jensen himself just slightly lowered his gaze, showing no extra emotion.
Gilda got up and went to the counter to settle the bill,
AS
Jackson followed at her left, and no one/noticed that Jensen also got up and followed.
However, at the checkout counter, they saw Erika looking troubled on the phone.
“Just lend600 thousand dollars! | will pay you back next month...”
It seemed she was borrowing money, but the person on the other end was not very willing to lend it to her.
Erika’s face darkened.
She was clearly biting off more than she could chew.
