Betrayal At the Altar by Dolores Delia

Chapter 262 A Trap For The Prey

Olivia’s lips curved into a faint smile. “It’s probably to cater to the theme of this auction,” said she.

“Let’s go over there and take a look, Olivia,” said Jane. She looked curiously at the pre–exhibition location and pulled Olivia’s hand to walk away.

A hint of disgust flashed across Olivia’s eyes. Jane had no vision at all.

If it weren’t for the open invitation to Louis, she wouldn’t have brought Jane

out to embarrass herself.

She suppressed her annoyance and looked longingly at Louis. “Louis, we’ll be right back,” said Olivia.

“Okay.”

Olivia followed Jane and strolled in front of the counters for the

pre–exhibition. At the same time, she picked up the auction roster and saw the blue diamond at a glance.

If she could have such a diamond ring, she would definitely be envied by many people, wouldn’t she?

It would be best if she could have it.

Olivia looked at the picture of the blue diamond in a daze. A trace of fondness could not help but appear in her eyes.

“What’s it?” Jane took over the auction roster and had a look at it. She noticed the expression on Olivia’s face and said, “Olivia, tell my brother if you like it. My brother will buy it for you.”

Olivia smiled lightly and said, “I think the person who can own the diamond must be the happiest in the world. It’s exceedingly rare, after all.”

“Then my brother will buy it for you even more. You’ll see if you don’t believe

me!” said Jane.

Olivia smiled softly and said nothing.

If Louis could auction the diamond for her, she would definitely receive a wave of popularity tomorrow.

It could be considered that she made a small splash.

At eight o’clock sharp.
