A cold voice suddenly rang out, startling everyone.
Everyone cast their eyes on Raymond, some surprised, some puzzled, and some angry...
No one noticed the viciousness in Nicole's eyes at this moment, and she was shaking all over with rage.
It was just a little off...
Raymond slowly rose to his feet under the watchful eyes of the crowd, his every gesture exuding an air of nobility.
He looked at Sophia expressionlessly, "Will you let her go?"
Just four words made Sophia break out in a cold sweat on her back. She was stunned for a few seconds before she came to her senses.
"It was my mother who didn't think it through. Since it's something Vivian has her eye on, take it."
Sophia smiled sweetly, but who could understand that she was so angry that she was about to spit blood? !
Didn't Nicole say Raymond didn't love Vivian at all? So why bother to show off Vivian? !
"Um."
Raymond said indifferently, without the slightest hint of gratitude.
This made Sophia even more embarrassed, forcing herself with a forced smile, "We're all family. There's no need to be so polite." With a cold look in her eyes, she looked down at Vivian.
Was Raymond really doting on Vivian, or was he dissatisfied with House of Johnson? Sophia couldn't figure it out.
But it shows that Vivian doesn't have no place in Raymond's heart either!
Sophia frowns...
"Mom! How could you spare that bitch Vivian!"
"Nicole whispered, pulling at her mother's sleeve.
"Shut up! It's not that you haven't found out!" If she had known Raymond valued Vivian, she wouldn't have been so foolish as to confront that damned girl face to face.
Sophia was so angry that her face turned blue and she glared at Nicole crossly.
"Humph!" "
Nicole gritted her teeth and glared at Vivian.
"Then congratulations to Mrs. Steven on this bracelet!"
The host announced.
The audience applauded and laughed to bless.
But I don't know how many of them are sincere.
Raymond sat down, a smile flashing in his deep, dark eyes so fast that he didn't even notice it himself.
Once the controversy over the bracelet was over, it was obvious to everyone that the rumors about Vivian were no longer important. As long as she could get Raymond's favor, it would be as if she had secured the position of Mrs. Steven!
"Raise your hand." Raymond humbled himself and placed the bracelet directly on Vivian's wrist, looking with satisfaction at the clear water color that made Vivian's fair wrist look as smooth as fat.
Vivian was clearly still in a daze, and there was a mist in her eyes as she spoke in disbelief:
"For... Why?" Isn't he angry?
Raymond frowned. "As Mrs. Steven, you can't even come up with ten million. I'll be embarrassed."
He gave her a disdainful glance.
The emotion just now vanished in an instant, but it also made Vivian cast off her rare vulnerability, and the corners of her mouth twitched.
Although Raymond spoke in a casual way, Vivian didn't believe that was what he really thought.
But for whatever reason she could get her mother's belongings back, she was content.
Thank you. Then it was time for her to settle accounts with John.
"Good faith, Mrs. Steven." Just a thank you to get rid of him?
He said expressionlessly, his eyes fixed on the stage.
Not sure if it was an illusion, Vivian sensed a hint of intriguing flavor in his tone, as if it carried a faint allure.
Just now, the agitation had left Vivian exhausted, and with her mother's belongings there was no need for her to look any further.
But as soon as her buttocks left her seat, her hand was seized by a force.
"You just want to leave like this?"
"What else?"
"Buy whatever you like." How could his woman let others bully her?
Black eyes stared straight at her.
Vivian moved away, fearing that her soul might be sucked in if she wasn't careful.
"... No need. I'll be satisfied with this one bracelet."
Vivian's beautiful eyes were filled with confusion. When did Raymond become so kind-hearted?
"Be obedient."
Raymond was still as concise as ever, but made Vivian's eyes, which had not yet dissipated, even more foggy.
Feeling somewhat uncomfortable, Raymond let go of her hand.
Vivian suddenly felt a bit reluctant to part with this warmth and subconsciously stroked the spot she had just touched.
"Three rules?" It's only been a few days and you're already disobedient?
Seeing that she didn't reply for a long time, Raymond was inexplicably annoyed and narrowed his eyes, revealing a dangerous air.
"All right." Can the Three Rules be used like this? Vivian put aside the confusion in her heart just now, raised her eyebrows and sat down cheerfully.
Suddenly turning to look at the House of Johnson and her daughter sitting behind her, she seemed to understand Raymond's meaning and a mischievous smile spread across her lips.
Since the mother and daughter were so undisciplined, she would teach them a good lesson tonight and let everyone in the room see that she was no pusher!
She turned her gaze to the stage, a glint of slyness in her eyes.
"Next up is a pair of agate bracelets, starting at two million."
The host took out a box containing beads of agate.
Under the soft light, the agates of different colors shone brightly and immediately captured the hearts of most people present.
"Three million."
"Four million."
Vivian gave a casual glance, showing little interest in the string of agates.
Suddenly hearing a familiar voice, she smiled slightly and raised the sign in her hand.
"Eight million."
Vivian's move again left many people stunned.
Everyone knows that Vivian probably doesn't have much money in her hand; otherwise, she wouldn't have been so angry just now. But now she's suddenly asking for eight million...
The only possibility is that Raymond will buy what she has her eye on again!
People looked at each other, some couldn't help but exclaim that Vivian had married a good husband, and some gave up.
"Eight and a half million."
Nicole made a tough bid.
She was one of those who didn't give up.
"Nine million."
Vivian's eyes were full of teasing and mockery. She was waiting for Nicole, the fish!
Vivian raised her sign unhurriedly, but it made Nicole behind her extremely angry.
"Vivian, you've got a bracelet. Could you give me this string of agate bracelets?"
Nicole merely thought Vivian was taking revenge on what had just happened, and thus brought up the sisterly bond at this moment.
Some of the people present chuckled inwardly, didn't they see that none of them dared to snatch from Vivian again?
If she makes Vivian unhappy and makes Raymond feel sorry for her, can she withstand Raymond's anger?
It's a pity that Nicole was so angry with Vivian that she had long forgotten how cold-blooded Raymond was...
"But I like this necklace too. Did you buy it for your mother again?"
Vivian raised her eyebrows slightly and smiled faintly.
This time it's my sister. I want...
Nicole tried to smile, but her whole face was stiff and looked strange.
"Well, then I'll give it to you."
"Vivian smiled faintly, with a smile on her face that made her feel cold all over.
"Ah?"
Nicole was stunned for a long time before she realized she had been tricked!
She knew she was going to ask her for the bracelet, so she deliberately raised the price so high!
Since Mrs. Steven said the agate bracelet could only be given to Nicole, the host, of course, did not dare to sell it to anyone else and could only act as she pleased to congratulate Nicole on getting the auction item.
Nicole didn't know whether to be happy or sad when she took the necklace...
