Chapter 151

"The lucky winner is—"

Yvonne raised her hand and pointed towards Serena. "Miss Sullivan!"

The crowd stared at Yvonne, bewildered and incredulous.

It was no secret that Yvonne didn't like Serena.

Anyone with eyes could see it.

Serena herself found it odd and glanced over at Samuel.

Yvonne leaped off the stage and approached Serena. "Miss Sullivan, if you kneel and beg me, I'll give you the Diamond Crown for free, not a single penny." The crowd erupted in shock, realizing Yvonne intended to humiliate Serena. "Yvonne!" Samuel couldn't stand it any longer. "Is this really necessary?"

"Oh, it's quite entertaining," Yvonne replied smugly, looking at Serena. "Back in college, I heard Miss Sullivan was fond of antiques. This Diamond Crown might not be authentic, but it's one-of-a-kind. If Miss Sullivan misses this chance, she might never get another. Are you sure you won't kneel?"

Serena's gaze was icy.
