Skeletons Of The Marital Closet novel Chapter 445

Chapter 445

How many of the wealthy would be so free to spend billions on a crown that did not have any practical usage?

Shawn’s expression remained serious. No one could tell what he was thinking.

“It’s so expensive. I feel like no one is going to bid on it,” Gale said.

Shawn answered, “Let’s wait and see.”

The auctioneer said, “The auction will officially begin. Bids will start at one and a half billion dollars. Will anyone be bidding?”

There was complete silence.

At that moment, Aurum suddenly said, “I.”

Everyone looked toward him.

Natalie earned looks of envy and jealousy from every woman there standing next to Aurum!

If Aurum bought it, it would definitely be for his fiance!

It was 1.5 billion! He was spending a fortune just to make his woman smile.

Seeing that, Winnie immediately said, “Wow, Natalie, you’re so lucky! Mr. Lefting is actually buying the Heart of the Sea for you!”

Natalie let out a shy smile as she looked at Gale with a pleased expression.

She was the daughter of the Yarn family and Aurum’s fiance. Only she was worthy of the crown!

A woman like Gale, who only knew how to seduce men, had no right to even be in the same conversation as her!

Natalie felt like she should not be too petty with Gale. It was beneath her.

“Winnie, don’t be so loud. Aurum hasn’t bought it yet. He just bid for it. Keep a lower profile,” Natalie said.

“That price is not something just anyone can pay. I’m so jealous!” Winnie deliberately said loudly.

She was both trying to flatter Natalie and put Gale down!

It was her first time seeing Natalie. They had never had any dealings before, but for some reason, she did not like Natalie.

It might be because she already knew of that girl, thanks to Aurum.

Everything Natalie had should have belonged to that girl.

Just thinking about how the Yarn family’s true daughter was completely lost to the world, even possibly already having passed away, she felt a stab of pain in her heart.

Yet, Natalie had all the love and happiness.

As she thought about that, Gale saw from the corner of her eye that Shawn was about to raise the bidding board! Was he really going to buy it?!

Before Shawn could raise his hand, Gale moved quickly and stopped him.

She whispered very softly, “What are you doing?!”

“Bidding.”
