Chapter 329: Is James Teaching A Lesson To Ivan?

A few more items were auctioned, but Natalie didn’t bid on them. Other guests claimed those items. Natalie glanced at James Harper, wondering why he hadn’t bid on anything yet—except for that painting, which he had allowed her to win.

Is he waiting for something truly precious to capture his attention?

Finally, something caught Natalie’s eye, and this time, she wanted it.

Cufflinks.

A delicate, finely carved gold accessory with precious diamonds embedded in them. The large screen ahead displayed detailed information about this masterpiece and how it had been crafted.

They were simply eye-catching, and Natalie couldn’t help but think, These will look perfect on Justin. I can get them as a birthday gift for him.

At the same time, she was aware that the bidding wouldn’t be easy—everyone would be trying to get them. Seems like I have to use my husband’s card finally. No worries, I’ll pay him back once my company starts making enough profit.

The bidding started at 2 million.

Natalie raised her paddle. "2.1 million."

Briena, once more, couldn’t keep quiet. "2.5 million." Then she turned to Ivan and said, "I think these will look good on you. I want to get them for you."

Ivan hummed, interested to see how far Natalie would go this time—and exactly which man in her life she was trying to get them for.

On the other side, some guests started murmuring.

"Did you notice? Once again, Briena bid on what Natalie bid for. Before this, there were plenty of items auctioned, but she didn’t bid on anything."

"Maybe just a coincidence."

Natalie knew Briena was going to do this again, so she placed her next bid.

"3 million."

She increased it significantly this time. It’s worth spending a fortune on my husband.

Other guests also joined in, and the price quickly climbed to 7 million—the highest bid of the night so far.
