Chapter 635
Who was that?
“Whoa, it’s Mr. Salter!”
“Why would someone so important come to H city?”
“Is he carrying a child? Is that his son? I heard Mr. Salter is divorced.”
The guests started buzzing about that. Even Leo looked over.
Brittany clenched her water glass. So that’s why Isaac was asking where she was. He had chased her to H city.
She tried to keep a low profile; she didn’t want to be linked with Isaac in front of everyone.
As Isaac entered the venue, he immediately saw Brittany and the man sitting next to her.
Daniel also saw them and instinctively wanted to shout out.
“Stay quiet.” Isaac whispered to him, “Your mom is working right now. We can’t disturb her. We’ll go find her later.”
Daniel nodded immediately and said, “Okay.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe organizers didn’t expect Isaac to show up, so they arranged the best seats and drinks for him.
“Ms. Dustin, you’ve lived in Imperial City for so many years. Do you know Mr. Salter?”
Leo didn’t follow the news much and didn’t know much about Imperial City.
He had no idea about any dispute between Brittany and Isaac.
Brittany put down her glass and said, “I don’t know him, and I don’t recognize him.”
Leo felt that she didn’t seem to like Isaac. Usually she was warm, like a spring breeze, but then she seemed cold.
The auction started, and the pink diamond Brittany was interested in was up for bid.
As soon as the host finished introducing, Brittany eagerly raised her sign.
The starting price was two hundred thousand dollars.
Brittany raised her sign, “Three hundred thousand.”
Nathan also held up his sign, ‘Three hundred and fifty thousand!”
Brittany was annoyed. Since when was he interested in pink diamonds?
Brittany didn’t give up, “Four hundred thousand!”
Nathan followed suit, “Four hundred and fifty thousand!”
Brittany pursed her lips, “Five hundred…”
“Ms. Dustin, stop bidding. This pink diamond is worth at most three hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Any more
than that is not worth it.”
Leo tried to stop her.
The value was secondary.
Brittany was competing with Isaac, and Leo felt that if he offended him, Brittany’s days in Imperial City would
become even more difficult.
Brittany looked at Leo, and a hint of stubbornness flashed in her eyes. But she still raised her sign, “Five hundred
thousand!”
Leo was speechless, unable to persuade her..
Brittany picked up her phone, found Isaac’s number and sent him a message, “Are you bored? Why are you trying
to outbid me?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe originally planned to give this pink diamond to Kari. If she didn’t get it, what should she have given instead?
Isaac was waiting for Brittany to lose her temper. Seeing her message, the corner of his mouth twitched up slightly.
“You said you were on a business trip, but you’re on a date with another man?”
Brittany knew Isaac was doing it on purpose. “This pink diamond is useful to me. Stop outbidding me!”
Isaac looked at the message on his phone, seemingly able to imagine what Brittany looks like at that moment.
There was a hint of mischief in his eyes, “If you have dinner with me tonight, I’ll stop.”
Brittany gritted her teeth and replied with, “Fine.” and then turned off her phone.
Sure enough, Nathan stopped bidding.
The pink diamond that originally only needed three hundred and fifty thousand dollars, Brittany ended up spending
an extra one hundred and fifty thousand on it. Even though she got it, she felt somewhat uncomfortable.
She made up an excuse to leave. Isaac watched her leave, handed Daniel over to Nathan, and followed closely.
They walked out of the auction hall. Brittany was waiting at the door, “Why did you come to H city?”
Brittany was very angry. The hard-earned one hundred and fifty thousand was spent just like that. She felt very
distressed.
Isaac moved a little closer and asked, “Can you explain your relationship with Leo?”
