Chapter 205 Bidding War

Freda noticed Theo's quiet contemplation and skillfully steered the conversation towards lighter territory, asking, "Any fun plans after dinner?"

After a brief pause, Theo's face lit up with a suggestion. "Actually, << there's an auction

happening nearby. If you're interested, I'd love to take you there."

"An auction? Trying to show off your wealth on our first meeting?" she asked with a playful glint in

her eye.

Freda's stunning looks and flirtatious glance exuded a charming and alluring presence.

Theo chuckled, "Your humor is delightful."

"I've always been surrounded by friends, ever since I was a kid. People just seem to enjoy my company."

Her words amused Theo once more, her charm and confidence bringing a smile to his face. Freda's eyes narrowed slightly as she gazed at Theo's smiling face, his charm and warmth radiating from him like a gentle glow.

Theo had taken a liking to her, and after a pleasant dinner, he invited her to the auction.

The auction was a relatively low-key affair, with the starting bids for the items on offer hovering around the modest sum of one million.

Freda's eyes scanned the catalog until she spotted a jewelry necklace, her expression

transforming from indifference to interest. "This sapphire's nice, but the design's off. This ruby's design, though, is stunning, but red... Doesn't suit me, I must say."
