Chapter 122
Reina’s Scarlet Swan Villa became famous, while Wynter's endorsement went viral overnight. Many hotshots had contacted Reina in hopes she could get Scarlet Swan Villa on the market.
However, Reina was very grateful to Donald and rejected it.
In her office, she was sipping on coffee after finishing her work. While propping her chin up with her right hand, she started to scroll through her phone to see if there were any new messages from Donald.
However, she was disappointed.
Donald would never be the first to send her messages. Even if she texted him, he might not answer.
Have you eaten yet? What are you doing?
Looking at the two text messages she sent him, Reina was distraught at how distant he was. When she was deep in thought, a knock on the door caused her to sit straight. “Come in.”
Donald entered the room.
Reina was bewildered as she quickly stood up. “You're here.”
The man calmly nodded as he took out a box. “Didn't I break your necklace last time?
I bought a new one for you.”
Thrilled, Reina opened the box to find a thick, heavy gold necklace resembling a dog's collar.
“It's pure gold. I figured you would like it,” Donald explained earnestly.
Reina felt horrified by his taste.
“Do you like it?” he asked.
Reina was a little hesitant as she nodded.
It s... nice.
“I'm relieved, then.” After saying that, he turned to leave.
Reina became a little deflated. “Where are you going?
Donald turned around in confusion.
“What's the matter?”
“There's a charity auction tomorrow at nine o'clock at night. Pollerton Commerce is the organizer of it. Can you accompany me there?” she invited.
After saying that, she handed Donald an invitation card that contained a few details about the auction items. Donald wanted to reject it at first, but his eyes narrowed when he saw the card.
He was more than familiar with two of the auction items—Eternal Love and A Midsummer Night's Dream!
The two items were being sold at a starting price of ten million.
Upon seeing that, Donald remained motionless for a few moments. Doesn't Jennifer own the two items? Why are they being auctioned? Are the two items fake, or did Jennifer sell them for money? Perhaps there's a hidden reason to it?
Donald decided to get to the bottom of it and nodded. “All right.”
After leaving the room, his expression darkened as he texted Bradley: Go and investigate why Eternal Love and A
Midsummer Night's Dream are being auctioned and the person behind it.
Bradley soon texted him the answer: It's Kevin. I just knew it would be that trash. Donald turned off his phone with a cold expression. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
What a good-for-nothing! If I weren't scared of Jennifer getting sad and falling out with me, I would have gotten rid of him.
At that moment, Jennifer had also received the invitation letter. When she saw the two auction items, she was confused before realization hit her. “Kevin, did you auction off my necklace and dress?” She immediately called her brother.
“Don't you think it's too wasteful to keep the two items? You might as well sell it off to purchase a new car and house for me,” Kevin replied.
“Those items are not mine!” Jennifer's body was shaking with anger.
Kevin answered, “It's gifted to you, so it might as well be yours. Besides, you won't wear it often, and there are cheaper options for clothes. It's settled, then. I'm still in a
game, so I'll hang up now.”
Jennifer stared at her phone in disbelief. “You're gambling again!”
Nonetheless, her brother hung up the call directly.
In the Blade Alliance, Kevin turned off his phone in disdain, dressed in a suit. Mark came up behind him, his attitude way different than before.
