My Extraordinary Wife

Chapter 940 The Auction Begins

The first item on auction that night was a porcelain figurine of Harvey's that was crafted during one of the dynasties of old.

As a result, it was considered a priceless antique that many of the industrial tycoons present clamored among themselves.

In the end, someone won the bid for it at five million.

The next item on the block was a diamond necklace which was sold just as quickly.

When it came to a porcelain vase that was popular with the crowd, Mavis won the bid at six million. She had always been a fan of intricate porcelain ware.

Meanwhile, when Christian snuck a glance at Spencer, he realized that no matter what he and his wife did, they would fail to capture the latter's attention.

Spencer was focused on the stage most of the time.

Ashlyn—in spite of her boredom—was obliged to buy a random antique in support of the disaster recovery efforts.

With the passage of time, the items were auctioned off one by one.

Just when Ashlyn began to feel drowsy, an old book written by a famous poet of old was put on the block, capturing her attention.
