Chapter 68
This mysterious beauty was arrogant. She raised the price of the bid exponentially.
“Mom, did I hear it right?”
Bethany was shocked. “Did that country bumpkin actually offer $60 million? How dare she
raise the price like that?! Is she faking it?!”
Shannon remained silent, but her cold eyes were fixed on Bella’s back.
Suddenly, Shannon remembered something. She rolled her eyes and looked in the
direction of Mila, who was Wyatt Thompson’s second wife.
Shannon sneered and thought, ‘Does that bitch Anna think that she can marry into the
Thompson family? We’ll see about that!’
“$70 million.”
Justin parted his thin lips and raised his sculpted hand slowly. The light shone down on his
handsome face, creating a glowing silhouette that many women could not take their eyes
away from.
He raised the price to a new level, so some bidders had no choice but to give up in

“$75 million.”
Bella’s expression remained calm as she raised her paddle again without hesitation.
Everyone was shocked.
Ryan, who was used to seeing these auctions, dared not speak at this moment.
He just felt like he was watching an intense showdown. Two waves of cold energy collided,
and it felt as if the roof of the venue would collapse in the next second.
“$80 million.” Justin kept his composure, but he felt a little annoyed.
He thought, ‘She’s really working hard to help Asher get this treasure!’
Bella touched the inside of her cheek with her tongue and suppressed her anger.
Even if she went over budget for this chair, she would use her own money to fight to the
end with Justin.
However, she also knew how to cut the losses in time and weigh the pros and cons.
Antiques had a high value due to their history, but she had a budget too. If the price
reached $80 million, going any further was just petty fighting.
“Justin, why are you such a dunce?”
Ryan saw Bella’s hostile expression and hurriedly tilted his head and whispered in Justin’s
ear. He added, “Anna wants this chair. Why don’t you just give it to her? She’s your ex-
wife. Don’t you think
you’re being ungentlemanly for fighting with her in front of so many people?”
“She’s sitting in that seat representing Asher Thompson, so the person competing with me
is also Asher Thompson. It has nothing to do with her.” Justin focused on the stage and
looked indifferent.
Ryan took a breath and gave him a thumbs-up. “Okay, you win.”
“$80 million, going once! $80 million, going twice! $80 million…”
“$100 million!”
Wow!
A crisp voice came from the back of the hall. Justin furrowed his brows in surprise, but he
did not turn around.
Everyone looked at the beautiful lady holding up the paddle. That was Mila, Wyatt

Bella’s bright eyes arched with delight. She suddenly understood why Mila attended the
auction.
Wyatt was afraid that Asher was not willing to spend money on this antique chair, so he
sent another representative to the auction.
Justin’s gaze darkened. He hesitated for a long time and did not make a move.
He could afford $100 million, but it would be unchivalrous of him to fight for it.
In the end, the top bidder for this antique rosewood chair was KS Group, which attracted
thunderous applause.
Just when everyone thought the auction was coming to an end, the auctioneer suddenly
announced the last auction item with a smile.
“This is the last item in today’s charity auction, which is also donated by KS Group! This
top-of-the- line jewelry is made by a well-known jewelry designer from Feranco, who took a
month to create this piece – “The Flaming Heart”!”
In an instant, Justin’s pupils shrank, and his heart stopped beating. He felt as if he had
been shot.
