Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire novel Chapter 278

Chapter 278 Challenging His Limits

A group of bodyguards dressed in black suits, surrounded a tall and imposing man as he walked in from outside.

The man was wearing sunglasses. His facial features were sharp, and he exuded a strong and cold aura.

"It's Mr. Nelson..."

Someone recognized Remington Nelson. Upon seeing Remington's arrival, many of the women present couldn't help but exclaim in excitement.

Three top-tier handsome men showed up at the venue today. This was quite a sight to behold!

But Remington's bid of 20 million dollars for Cecelia's artwork clearly showed his support for her. Many ladies present were envious.

They couldn't help but feel frustrated, wondering why Cecelia was so fortunate to have three influential figures competing for her.

When Petunia saw Remington approaching, she felt a pang of pain in her heart. As long as she thought that her genuine feelings were completely rejected by him, she felt resentful!

Petunia stared at Remington without blinking, but he walked straight past her without even glancing in her direction.

This was truly hurtful!

It seemed that his eyes couldn't accommodate anyone else as long as Cecelia was present.

Remington walked to the center of the venue and scanned his gaze over Jersey and Jonathan.

When Remington approached him, Jonathan shook his hand with him and said, "Mr. Nelson, so you are here to compete with me!"

Jonathan was referring to Cecelia's painting that he really liked. It seemed that today he had no chance of having it!

After shaking hands with Jonathan, Remington looked at Jersey and said, "Mr. Bowman, I didn't know you like art so much. You just settled here. And now, you come to bid for artworks already. It seems that you must have a great love for art!"

Remington's words carried some subtle sarcasm.

Last time, when Remington defeated Jersey, he warned him to leave the Cathail Republic.

But unexpectedly, Jersey came here again in another status and directly settled in the Cathail Republic for development.

Jersey was clearly challenging his limits!

"Mr. Nelson, nice to see you again."

Jersey showed no signs of retreat and shook hands with Remington gracefully.

This time, their handshake seemed to be polite too, but there were turbulent emotions inside their hearts.

Standing on the side, Cecelia felt a throbbing sensation in her temples when she saw them doing a handshake. She almost had a headache!

At this moment, the auctioneer asked, "Mr. Nelson bids $20 million. Is there a higher bid?"

Jersey looked at Cecelia, and she shook her head, signaling him not to increase the bid. Otherwise, Remington would definitely continue to compete with him.

"Mr. Nelson, since you are interested in this piece of art, I shall gracefully concede and give it to you."

Just when everyone thought the auction was coming to an end, Jersey spoke again, "However, my bid still stands. I would like to bid $10 million for a single strand of Miss Cecelia's hair. Consider it an opportunity for me to contribute to charity!"

$10 million for a strand of Cecelia's hair?

Was this big shot serious?

The women in the audience looked at Jersey in shock. They couldn't understand his intentions.

Why would he want to buy Cecelia's hair?

Everyone thought Jersey was being absurd, except for Remington, who knew that this was Jersey's way of not backing down.

With a dark expression, Remington stared at Jersey and involuntarily clenched his fist.

'This asshole wants to get Cecelia's hair? Is he crazy?'

Seeing the awkward situation, Karen took the initiative to go on stage and ease the atmosphere. She said, "Mr. Nelson, thank you for generously bidding $20 million for Miss Linsey's artwork. Mr. Bowman, I also appreciate your charitable intentions. How about I take charge of this auction?"

Karen smiled at Cecelia and said, "Miss Cecelia, I wonder if I can ask you to donate one precious strand of your hair as an item for auction?"

Cecelia nodded and allowed Karen to pluck a strand of hair from her head.
