My one in a million wife [Ashlyn and Lucas] chapter 119
He secretly glanced over at Ashlyn, who sat a row behind. This woman was dazzling, but her personality was also prickly. So they fancy these kinds of roses with thorns?
“You left your wife for this woman? No matter how I look at it, she looks like she’s possessed by an incapable monarch. You deserve a beating for treating Mrs. Nolan so badly.”
“Shut up!” Lucas shouted, unable to tolerate Joseph’s yapping.
It seemed that after flying to Africa for a few days, his memory was still as bad as ever.
Everyone nearby was eavesdropping on the conversation. Previously, they were skeptical about the rumors that Lucas was a victim of family violence. Only now did they believe it.
This was something Joseph had personally confirmed.
The legendary Mrs. Nolan intrigued them. They were especially interested in the woman who could hit Lucas.
After that, a few precious jewelry and antique books were sold. Among them, a few pieces were sold at unbelievably high prices.
Now and then, Hera would glance over and scrutinize Ashlyn.
She wanted to know what ‘precious item’ the latter had.
Just then, the emcee stood stunned for a moment before he said, “Up next, we will put Ms. Berry’s item up for auction. It’s a piece of artwork titled ‘A Hundred Birds Facing Phoenix’.”
“A Hundred Birds Facing Phoenix?”
“Isn’t Ms. Saunders best at drawing birds? A Hundred Birds Facing Phoenix is also one of her famous pieces. Could it be her artwork?” A man who was an expert in collecting calligraphies and paintings said, shocked.
“It can’t be. How could Ashlyn have Ms. Saunders’ artwork?”
“That’s right! It is said that Ms. Saunders draws with her left hand and plays the piano with her right hand. Left hand, they said! Most people can’t even draw well with their right hand, not to mention the left. She’s one-of-a-kind!”
“Ms. Saunders is left-handed.”
“But she uses her right hand to play the piano!”
Everyone was discussing the matter excitedly.
All the ladies that accompanied the men were just props and there was no need to prepare their items.
However, since Ashlyn was there, she naturally had to be prepared. Very prepared.
At that moment, she stood up and marched toward the stage.
Seeing her slender and graceful behind, Winsor smirked, “Mr. Quickton, is Ms. Berry your girlfriend?”
Jared smiled. “You think too highly of me. I just see her as my goddess.”
“She’s my goddess, too,” Winsor said cheekily. “Why don’t we have a fair competition?”
Jared stiffened. He did not dare to woo his boss; he would die a painful death if he did. He seemed to sympathize with Winsor as he rubbed his hands and said, “Well, I wish you a smooth journey.” C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
To be sacrificed halfway.
Winsor frowned, not understanding what Jared meant.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt it did not sound like a good thing.
By then, Ashlyn had arrived onstage. Everyone had their gaze focused on her.
Only then did Dixon see the looks of the woman he disdained. His heart wavered.
Beautiful! How beautiful! Her beauty hurt his eyes and pricked his heart.
This woman was right to be arrogant.
Not only was she gorgeous, but she also had good connections.
And Ms. Saunders was her strongest connection.
He suddenly understood why she was surrounded by so many big shots. This woman is worth everything!
Ashlyn glanced over at the emcee. “You’re not done with the introduction.”
As if it was his first time seeing such a dazzling woman, he snapped out of it and continued, “This piece of work is from the legendary Ms. Saunders. Her works are priceless. The starting bid of this piece is ten million!”
The audience instantly fell into silence.
That was indeed Ms. Saunders’ artwork!
It was said that her works were incredibly difficult to acquire.
Hera stood up, incredulous. She shrieked, “That’s impossible!”
Her artwork was sold for five hundred thousand. She even arranged for it to be a trending topic beforehand.
She thought she would definitely be in the limelight today. But now, that plan backfired.
After all, the people present had all brought either jewelry or precious stones. Her painting was on a different level compared to their items!
