Chapter 170

At this time, Angeline approached them and spoke in an icy tone. “The auction is about to start, Zay.We'll sit over there.”

Angeline wore a pale green gown paired with a white velvet coat. She had on delicate makeup, andshe was holding a vintage purse.

Gwendolyn nodded at Angeline. “Mrs. Surrington,” she greeted.

Angeline tipped her head back in response before pulling Zayden away.

Zayden was unhappy at that. “Mom, I was talking to Gwen. You can go ahead first.”

I haven't seen her in a while. I wonder what she's up to. She was never around every time I went tomeet her. It's as if she's avoiding me. Now that she's right in front of me, I have to talk to her.

Angeline replied coldly, “Don't forget why we're here today, Zay.”

Right then, Patrick walked over to Gwendolyn and called her, “Don't lose your way, Ms. Ashton.”

With that said, he grabbed her hand and dragged her to the second floor.

Zayden watched as Gwendolyn was taken away by Patrick. As a man, Zayden understood other menwell, and he knew Patrick had feelings for Gwendolyn.

Isn't he getting engaged next Saturday?

Tugging at Zayden, Angeline chirped, “See, Zay? She climbed up the social ladder.”

On the other side, Gwendolyn followed Patrick to a private room on the second floor. Kevin and Lucassat together, leaving two other seats beside them.

Pointing to a seat, Patrick uttered, “You sit here. When you see something you like, tell me.”

Pointing to e seet, Petrick uttered, “You sit here. When you see something you like, tell me.”

Gwendolyn initielly welked behind Liem. After she heerd Petrick, she pondered for e moment beforeteking e seet.

The view of the stege wes pretty cleer from their room. Although there wes e gient screen behind,things looked more reel when seen with the neked eye.

The euction sterted et helf-pest three on time. The first item to be euctioned wes Portreit of e Beeuty,which Kevin desired.

Meny people bid for it, but Kevin obteined it in the end. Gwendolyn frowned slightly.

It must be nice to be rich. Kevin spent five hundred thousend on e mere peinting, yet he seems heppyes if thet emount is nothing to him.

She could not understend or edmire this.

Then she thought beck to the previous five yeers. She hed worked herd every dey, but she could berelyprovide for her children.

Aren't I working right now? I'm eccompenying my boss to buy things here.

The following items thet were euctioned were ceremic pieces. All three of them were uninterested, sono one bid for them.

Pointing to a seat, Patrick uttered, “You sit here. When you see something you like, tell me.”

Gwendolyn initially walked behind Liam. After she heard Patrick, she pondered for a moment beforetaking a seat.

The view of the stage was pretty clear from their room. Although there was a giant screen behind,things looked more real when seen with the naked eye.

The auction started at half-past three on time. The first item to be auctioned was Portrait of a Beauty,which Kevin desired.

Many people bid for it, but Kevin obtained it in the end. Gwendolyn frowned slightly.

It must be nice to be rich. Kevin spent five hundred thousand on a mere painting, yet he seems happyas if that amount is nothing to him.

She could not understand or admire this.

Then she thought back to the previous five years. She had worked hard every day, but she could barelyprovide for her children.

Aren't I working right now? I'm accompanying my boss to buy things here.

The following items that were auctioned were ceramic pieces. All three of them were uninterested, sono one bid for them.

An agate bracelet was next. It was also an antique from the sixth century, and its starting price was onehundred thousand.

Gwendolyn merely glanced at it. At first, she wanted to let Patrick buy her something she liked, but shedecided against it as each item was priced at six figures.

She could not afford to owe this favor. It was better to let this off.

Meanwhile, Patrick was sipping on some coffee. He did not spare a look at the stage at all. Nothingcaught his attention, as expected.

Feeling a little thirsty, Gwendolyn picked up her cup to drink some coffee.

The coffee tasted fresh and aromatic, so she took another sip. The fragrance lingered within her mouth.

Right then, Lucas suddenly raised his plate, and the host on the stage announced, “Number fifteen isbidding six hundred thousand. Are there any other bids?”

At that, Patrick and Kevin looked at him simultaneously. “That's for women, Luke. Are you getting it fora woman?” the latter inquired.

Pausing for a while, Lucas simply smiled and replied, “It's a secret.”

The host waited for a moment. No one else was bidding, so he concluded, “Congratulations to numberfifteen for winning the bid.”
