It amused Scarlett to think of the painting and vase her grandpa gave her not long ago.
"Then let's bid on it."
Whether her grandpa liked it or not was another story.
Scarlett thought about it and said, "Okay."
After a pause, she said, "I'll bid on it myself.
Scarlett was rich, so she didn’t want to use Raymond’s money before she married him.
So the gossip wouldn't say that she was greedy for Raymond's money.
When Raymond heard her words, he had to put down his hand holding the bidding paddle. "Okay, bid it by yourself."
He put down his bidding paddle and held her right hand.
The auction price of that jade was over 1.2 million dollars. Scarlett's first bid was 1.5 million dollars. Few people dared to raise their bids.
When Libby heard what the auctioneer said, she couldn't help but frown, "Who's bidding?"
What a rich person!
Libby turned around and saw that it was Scarlett, and then she wore a complicated expression.
Libby came here with a job today. Tomas liked to collect antiques. Breanna made a fool of herself not long ago. Hearing that this jade was going to be auctioned, Tomas let Libby come over tonight to bid on that jade.
Libby did not care how much money she used to bid for the jade, because she could afford to pay one or two million dollars.
But the bidder was Scarlett, which made her feel embarrassed.
She didn't dare to provoke Scarlett now, but Tomas told her that she must bid the jade.
Libby was at a loss. She looked at Darrell and asked him, "Darrell, should I raise my bidding paddle."
What if Scarlett misunderstood?
Darrell looked back and said, "It’s okay."
