Chapter 553
Lance’s face was already looking quite grim at this point, and yet he couldn’t just back out easily. He had no choice but to keep bidding. “Seventy million!”
Chloe raised her sign again, “Eighty million!”
Finally, Keira’s friends couldn’t hold back anymore.
“Hey, Chloe, aren’t you going a bit too far! You’re obviously targeting Keira, raising the price on purpose, aren’t you?”
“Exactly! How can someone be so shameless?”
Chloe didn’t even blink an eye, sitting calmly in her chair and retorting coldly. “It’s a charity auction. I’m willing to donate more money for charity. How does that translate to deliberately raising the price? In your eyes, Keira is some sort of goddess whose actions are always right, while everything anyone else does’is wrong. Even doing charity, if it gets in the way of your friend’s public display of affection, makes one a villain, does it?”
“You’re despicable!”
Chloe smirked and nodded, “Despicable? Seems like in your eyes, charity really isn’t as important as your friend’s love display. That’s a lesson learned today.”
The actress turned beet red, glancing around to see a number of reporters pointing their cameras at her. She panicked and quickly sat
down.
What she didn’t realize though, was that just because of Chloe’s nonchalant words, she was doomed in the entertainment industry. Charity was a sensitive topic, and not many were genuinely willing to contribute. Even so, keeping up appearances was necessary. It was a topic that was easily criticized. To say that “charity isn’t as important as Keira’s public display of love“, that was just asking for
trouble!
“Ninety million!” Just as the atmosphere at the venue started to become awkward, Lance’s voice rose again.
“Lance!” Not just others, even Keira looked at him, shocked and delighted!
Lance put down his sign and turned to look at Chloe. But Chloe didn’t make a move!
She raised an eyebrow slightly, a small smile playing on her lips, “Since Mr. Olson is so fond of this ring, I guess I’ll just have to let it go! I mean, I want to do charity, but one must live within one’s means, right? Ninety million, well, I concede. I think we should all give a round of applause for Mr. Olson’s generous donation to charity, to show our gratitude and admiration!”
Chloe started clapping, and the sound of applause echoed throughout the venue. Jeanette, Kane, slowly, the entire venue was filled with enthusiastic applause.
Keira hadn’t quite recovered from the joy of victory when she began to feel that something was off. The joy on her face gradually faded. She turned to look at Lance, indeed, his handsome face was filled with gloom.
If Chloe hadn’t participated in the bidding, Lance could have gotten the ring for a mere six million.
Ninety million, for a ring! Because of Chloe, he lost more than eighty million!
Even though she had the ring in the end, the outcome made her grind her teeth in hatred. The applause in the venue was like a slap in
the face to Keira.
Played by Chloe once again. Looking at Chloe, and seeing the smile at the comer of her mouth, Keira felt like rushing up and slapping
her!
