Chapter 040 Get Lost, Imbecile! Matthew and Luca looked in the direction of Hailey in unison. Their hearts

skipped a beat when they saw her cold expression.

Was she angry?

Hailey was indeed a little angry. It was just that she had been used to putting on a disguise all these years and rarely showed her true emotions on her face. Nowadays, not many people could really get on her nerves. It was unnecessary to be annoyed over the men’s childish actions. Due to the overwhelming sensation during the auction of the emerald necklace, not many were interested when it was the porcelain plates’ turn. Of course, many of the attendees did not appreciate the plates. On the contrary, collectors like Hailey had been waiting for the plates to be

auctioned. The more valuable the item was, the calmer she looked.

The auctioneer called out a price of one million.

Hailey did not raise her sign. Instead, she ordered Chris to raise his sign and

said, “1.1 million.”

Many people present were still in a trance from being shocked by Chris’s bid for the necklace. They wasn’t sure if it was simply a gullible act from him, but they knew that he was really rich.

They definitely couldn’t compete with him in term of wealth, so when they saw Chris offer his price, those who were interested with the plates automatically put down their signs. This was the effect that Hailey wanted. When the auctioneer was going to call 1.1 million twice, she was anticipating that she could make the final call, but an unexpected surprise happened.

“1.2 million.”

She turned her head slightly and glanced at Owen, who was raising his sign with a leisure expression.

She frowned in annoyance.

What was up with him tonight? Was he addicted to raising the sign and offering
