My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 186

Zeke quickly understood what she was going to do; she wanted to dispose of her data.

So, he did not bother her, just curiously walked to the side of the electronic screen and carefully lifted a corner of the curtain. Outside, things were becoming lively as a hot blonde beauty stepped onto the stage, and the audience quietened down.

As the auctioneer made his opening remark with a smile, Nicole's eyes intercepted the signal between the electronic screen of this box and the auction house. She replaced it with her own computer terminal and disguised it as that of the auction house.

"Thank you for coming to our Gold Session at the Moon House, where there are only things you can't think of and where there is nothing we can't auction. I wish everyone good luck and happy bidding."

There was warm applause from the audience, and all eyes were on stage, waiting for the auction to begin.

Zeke was also sitting on the soft couch in the box, looking at the stage. The box next door seemed to have been occupied, as he could faintly hear a familiar woman's voice. He listened carefully and could not believe that it was Chloe. Looking in that direction with surprise, he saw the box was the closest box to the stage, and it was also the largest of all the boxes.

He looked back at Nicole, who had apparently heard it too. Nicole had a frosty look in her eyes. She had already realized that Chloe was the daughter of Miley, the wife of Damien from the Riddle family. Chloe was an actress, the woman whom she saw sitting across from Jared in the cafe that day.

Nicole had mixed feelings when she thought of Jared. She heard from Max that Jared was also in Nottingbrook State. Just that she did not know where exactly he was, and they might have little chance to meet.

Nicole lowered her eyes to hide her melancholy. She gathered herself and continued to focus on the screen in front of her.

Time wore on. The Moon House's security system was hard to hack into. But looking at the progress bar on the screen, a smile crept across Nicole's face.

Soon, she broke into the Moon House's intranet and searched quickly for information related to her actual name. Because of the massive amount of data, it needed time. Nicole let the computer do its job while she got up and looked at Zeke.

Zeke wished he could poke his head out of the curtain. When he saw Nicole come out, he quickly said, "It is a pity that you didn't see what I saw. You missed a lot. If it weren't for the old man's strict control of my finances, I would have bid for a few pieces of goods."

At this point, Zeke screwed up his face in regret.

Nicole raised an eyebrow with interest and then looked slightly stunned at the scene outside of the curtain. The auction this time had so much to offer.

Her attention was drawn to the stage outside the curtain. After the blonde beauty sent down an auction item, she shouted passionately, "The following items are crystals produced in the Gulf of New Guinia. Their purity is, of course, guaranteed. The feature item of this batch of crystals is our main lot in this auction, a ten-carat pink diamond with an IF purity level—it is flawless."

Speaking of which, several tall-built crews came up with trays on their hands. The trays contained brilliant white crystals, which seemed to be crystal deposits, and the last tray was covered by a red cloth. As soon as the blonde's voice trailed off, a crew came up, unveiled the tray, and took a spotlight to shine on the contents of the tray. Another crew raised a whiteboard behind the tray. When light shone on the tray, and the reflection appeared on the whiteboard, everyone exclaimed in amazement.
