Chapter 546
*Two point five million.” Keira kept raising the bid, and the increments were getting pretty hefty.
Chloe blinked, her face expressionless as she looked at the vase on the stage, waiting to see if anyone else would
raise the bid.
It wasn’t until Keira hit the three point five million mark that the auctioneer started to get ready to drop the
hammer.
“Three point six million.” Chloe bid again.
Keira, who was so close to victory, was cut off by Chloe. Her face instantly soured. She turned to Lance, her face
showing unbearable. hurt and disappointment. She looked like she was being bullied by Chloe.
“That’s too much! This Chloe is clearly doing this on purpose, just to mess with Keira!”

“Whatever Keira likes, she wants! What a despicable person!”
A few women who were clearly trying to flatter Keira were discussing disapprovingly. To the other people listening, it
seemed like they had a point
But there were also whispers saying, “But Chloe was the one who started the bidding.”
“You’re so naive! Chloe and Lance have been dating for so long, how could she not know that Lance’s father is
interested in these antiques? She must have known that Keira would be interested in this item, that’s why she made
the first move, get it?”
“Ah? So that’s how it is! I thought! She’s really cunning?!”
“You’re just realizing this? She’s really sneaky!”
The discussions weren’t even trying to be subtle, almost as if they were meant to tarnish Chloe’s reputation!
Jeanette gritted her teeth in anger, “These people, they’re too much!”
Chloe let out a cold laugh, “The one thing this world isn’t short of is fools! Let them talk, as long as we’re living
better than them, that’s
all that matters.”
Jeanette was still seething. Especially when Keira raised the bid to three point sixty–five million, it made her even
more incensed.
Three point sixty–five million, going once…”

Chloe remained silent, seemingly considering whether the 18th–century vase was worth the price. After all, she

She pondered for a moment, deciding to give up on this auction item.
“Three point sixty–five million, going twice…”
The auctioneer’s gaze landed on Chloe, who might raise her bid again, but Chloe calmly put down her paddle.
“Three point sixty–five million…”
“Five million.”
Just as the auctioneer was about to drop the hammer, a familiar and indifferent voice suddenly rang out.
Chloe quickly lifted her head to look at Damon beside her, his paddle just being put down. She frowned slightly at
him in disagreement, but Damon seemed completely indifferent.
Jeanette, who was in a state of irritation, immediately brightened up when Damon finally made a move. Her inner
frustration also dissipated.
The bid jumped by over a million, the biggest leap of the evening.
Keira bit her lip lightly, giving Lance a regretful glance.
