Best Revenge: Being My Ex-Boyfriend’s Aunt novel Chapter 233

Everyone began to talk about it.

"It's Ethan from Lowe Corporation. How generous of him."

"I heard that he's in a relationship with the young lady from the affluent Steele household."

"I see. The Steele family is quite popular in Melbourne. Looks like he'll be able to turn things around.”

"Exactly. But the current chairwoman of Hudson, Catherine, is his ex-girlfriend."

"Catherine's boyfriend isn’t taking action at the moment. I guess he can’t bear to buy this expensive necklace for his girlfriend."

Shaun gazed at her seriously. He actually noticed her fascination for The Queen's Necklace through her

Dazed, Catherine felt as if her head was about to explode. "Are you out of your mind? I told you not to bid for it."

“2.6 billion." Janet, who was nearby, suddenly raised her bid paddle.

Catherine gripped Shaun’s hand. "Stop raising your paddle. She definitely can't afford it. She's just driving up the price on purpose."

Shaun could not be bothered about her. He used another hand to raise his paddle. "Three billion."
