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.

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

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

bidder’s identity.
