A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband

Chapter 229

Joseph and Jerome’s hearts quivered, and they simultaneously glanced at Chloe.

Both of them had their hearts set on Chloe, and they instantly noticed her anger.

Thus, the two of them joined forces and exited the auction.

Why get angry over such a small thing? Let it go..

“Well done, Miss Thorp! This necklace is all yours!”

Without waiting for the others to react, the auctioneer, keenly judging the situation, decided to let Chloe win this item.

After two seconds of silence, the venue crupted into warm applause.

Chloe’s face remained composed, her eyes like a still pool, devoid of any joy.

“Mom! Chloe bought the counterfeit one! Did she realize it was a fake?!” Skyler was so agitated that her voice quivered, and her heart was pounding like a rabbit.

“Hush! Are you trying to yell so loud that the entire world can hear you?!”

Aubree gave Skyler’s elbow a sharp pinch, and there was a hint of resentment in her gaze. “Chloe must not have realized the jewelry was counterfeit. She probably didn’t anticipate there’d be a fake one at her auction.”

“This twenty million dollars of hers can be seen as aiding you in doing good deeds!”

“If she discovers us when we return…” Skyler was still anxious.

“Once the auction item is out here, it’ll have nothing to do with you! Who knows if she’ll be replaced or slandered by someone when she takes it home?” Aubree snorted coldly.

Skyler admired her mother’s ability to invert black and white without reason the most, wishing she could share her mother’s brain, yet secretly hating why she couldn’t.

Upon seeing that Chloe had sold the jewelry Ada had borrowed for the highest price in the audience, Ada Wang couldn’t help but break into a satisfied smile.

She felt that Chloe still harbored some fantasies of being able to collaborate with her, which was the only reason she could think of for her to do this.

Sighing, so young and vigorous!

Chloe’s eyes darkened as she, young and vigorous, took out her phone to send a message to Jordan

She adjusted her posture calmly and composedly, as if awaiting an entertaining show.

“The following piece of jewellery is from…”

When the red cloth was lifted, the auctioneer’s speech abruptly ceased.

He glanced at the waterdrops and diamonds in the display cabinet, then quickly glanced at the schedule in his hand.
