Chapter 223

As soon as Hubert spoke, it was apparent which family would emerge as the

winner of the coveted centerpiece jewelry tonight. “400, going once!” The

elegant auctioneer’s voice resonated through the hall. At the same time,

Beatrix’s nerves were on edge.

Unlike Hubert’s naivety, she recognized Emmanuel’s voice and knew it was

her brother–in–law bidding from the VIP room next door. Please, Emmanuel,

don’t lose out!

“Haha, how about that? Isn’t your future brother–in–law impressive?” Hubert,

oblivious to Beatrix’s thoughts, proudly boasted to her.

“600!” Suddenly, Emmanuel’s voice echoed in the venue. The audiences

present gasped in astonishment. Someone dared to compete with Hubert

and even raised the bid by a staggering 2 million! Unfortunately, Emmanuel

was absent from the auction hall, leaving everyone clueless about the

bidder’s identity.

“Oh, Mr. Verkade, it appears that you and my elder sister are not destined to

be together!” Beatrix glanced at Hubert, feigning nervousness while feeling

elated deep inside. Emmanuel is truly remarkable!
