Chapter 92

As Everly took her seat, the lights dimmed.

Marina whispered a threat, “Don’t push your luck, Everly.”

“Push my luck? I haven’t even exposed you as a homewrecker yet,” Everly retorted.

Despite the dim lighting, she could see that Marina had turned as pale as a ghost. This, in turn, brought a cheerful smile to Everly’s face.

“I just love how you can’t do anything about me even though you can’t stand me. Marina, I’ve got evidence of all the things you’ve done.

“If you dare provoke me and Liv again, I just might reveal everything to the whole world. If I were you, I would cut my losses and stop right here. Don’t act all high and mighty when you’re nothing but a sly fox.”

Glaring at her fiercely, Marina remained quiet.

Meanwhile, Olivia hadn’t expected to meet Ethan again so soon.

They didn’t talk at all, and any passerby would have thought that they were strangers. They were both indifferent to the auction going on, not reacting to the high prices offered.

As the auction approached its end, Shawn himself took the stage. “Next is an ancient garden estate that boasts a history of a hundred years.”

A classic garden estate was displayed on the screen.

The Fordham residence had been built by Olivia’s ancestors. Later, it had been redesigned and renovated to incorporate some modern elements while retaining its historical significance.

Its selling point was its excellent location, which was in the most happening area of the city. It was highly valuable, regardless of whether one wanted it for personal use or business purposes.

From the pictures, Olivia saw the familiar courtyard, where the flowers on the tree were about to bloom. She remembered that Jeff had buried his best wine under the tree, saying that he would dig them up for a toast after she had a child. Alas, he couldn’t wait that long.

Shawn announced, “We’ll begin the bid at the price of one billion dollars. Feel free to offer a higher bid if you are interested. It’ll be hard to find a location like this.”
