"Okay, the next auction item is a dress designed with blue and white porcelain hundreds of years ago. It has an antique flavor and collectible value. The starting price of this dress is five hundred thousand."
"Five hundred and fifty thousand..."
"Six hundred thousand......"
"Seven hundred thousand......"
"..."
Soon, the price of the dress was one million.
Penelope also saw the opportunity and made a bid, "One and a half million!"
When the people around her saw that it was Penelope, they all put down their signs and did not plan to follow her anymore.
But no one was expecting that...
At this time, Dominic raised the sign in his hand. "One point eight million!"
This was Dominic's first bid tonight, and he wanted to snatch the dress from Penelope.
"Oh wow, what kind of is going on? Dominic and Penelope are actually going against each other?"
"Ex-wife VS ex-husband, who is better?"
"I'm suddenly looking forward to it!"
"..."
Penelope did not expect Dominic to raise a price, so she could not help but frown, and then followed closely, "Two million and two hundred thousand."
Dominic also raised his sign. "Three million!"
It seemed that he would not give up until he achieved his goal.
One of the reasons why Dominic came here tonight was for this dress.
Because it originally belonged to the Archer family.
This was Grandma Rose's dowry when she got married, but she pawned it off when Archer's family went through difficulties at the beginning.
After their company passed the crisis, Dominic always wanted to buy the dress back.
However, the dress was transferred to the museum and was not for sale. It was finally put up for auction today.
Dominic was bound to win whatever happened.
"Four million!"
Penelope also wanted the dress.
If it could be included in the fashion show, it would definitely be amazing!
"Six million!"
The two of them bid the price all the way without any hesitation, as if millions were just a bunch of numbers to them.
"Eight million......"
Everyone was also shocked.
Why did Dominic give up just like that?
Or did he still have some affection for Penelope?
Everyone was speculating, but Dominic, as the real owner, just lowered his eyes slightly without any unnecessary expression.
Penelope stood up and went to the counter to pay.
Ryan followed her on the left, and no one noticed. Dominic also got up and followed.
However, at the checkout...
She saw Suzy talking on the phone with a troubled face.
"...Please, just lend me three million! I will pay it back to you next month..."
She seemed to be borrowing money.
The other party seemed reluctant to lend it to her.
Suzy's face looked anxious.
Haha…
It was really a shame.
