The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 545

Lance gave Keira a glance. Keira was biting her lip, blushing, and Lance couldn't help but smile.

Serene watched Keira's shy behavior, her eyes gleaming. She chuckled and said, "Sure, the main purpose of a charity event is to raise funds. But keeping the atmosphere alive is just as important. Tonight, we've got plenty of stars and entertainers bringing their A-game, and plenty of interaction. It's a great chance to shine, Lance."

With that, she winked at Lance with a mysterious expression.

Lance gave Serene a helpless look. She seemed to understand something and dramatically covered her mouth.

Keira, puzzled by their secret exchange, asked, "Are you two hiding something?"

Serene just giggled, her hand still over her mouth, her expression even more mysterious. Watching Serene's antics, Keira felt a mix of anticipation and nerves. It seemed Lance might have another surprise up his sleeve tonight.

Before she had a chance to ponder further, the auctioneer took the stage and announced the start of the auction.

The first few items up for bid were just for show, placed by the organizers themselves to heat things up, not suitable for donated items.

Once two items had been auctioned off and the crowd was warmed up, the donated items started to go on sale.

Since it was for charity, Chloe wasn't stingy. After two more items were sold, a piece of art came up for bid.

It was a vintage vase that caused a bit of a stir when it was brought out. Most of the people in attendance were young artists or rich kids, not overly interested in collectibles. But some were looking to impress their elders, so there were still some bids.
