Reckless Marriage Unyielding Love

Chapter 109

Mikayla also liked shiny diamonds and jewelry and usually went shopping with Juliet to buy different luxury items to go with different clothes. Jorge and Sylvia would also frequently buy some for her. They never made Mikayla feel the lack of money so she would buy whatever hit her fancy. However, she was not a spendthrift. She would always check out various diamond and jewelry stores to determine whether they were worth buying. She was touched that Carlos wanted to buy the necklace for her, but more than that she felt pained over the money he was throwing away over it. After all, it wasn't a small amount of money! Such an expensive thing could not be worn for everyday use, and it would be vulgar to resell it straight after buying it. In short, besides being touched, she didn't think the necklace was worth buying. She didn't feel sad over Carlos not winning the bid.

"Wait for me here. I'll be right back!" Carlos lowered his head and whispered to her.

"Alright." Mikayla smiled.

So, Carlos and Jaxon followed the auctioneer backstage.

Winona snorted coldly and sneered, "It seems that you are marrying a pauper!" 'How nice to be able to say those words to her! Carlos was outclassed by Jaxon and I managed to trample Mikayla under my foot. What a joy... Besides, those people were congratulating and praising me just now. Today has been a spectacular day for me, thought Winona.

Mikayla sat quietly, waiting for Carlos' return. The current her had no wish to argue with Winona. She was well aware that while Carlos had lost the bid, Jaxon wasn't likely to be able to afford the necklace either. 'Although Jaxon is an adult and has control over his finances, the economic sovereignty of the Lindstrom family is still in Hugo's hands. But Hugo is a businessman. There is no way he'll agree to spend 87 million dollars to buy a necklace for his daughter-in-law. Hell, even he won't wear anything that expensive. Seeing how miserly Hugo is, the possibility of Jaxon being able to afford the necklace is slim! Of course, he might give in for Jaxon's sake. But the possibilities are low...' mused Mikayla.

Mikayla's silence emboldened Winona into acting more arrogantly. She lifted her hair, revealing her smooth neck, and mocked, "Mikayla, if you want, I can let you borrow the necklace for two days..." Mikayla pursed her lips, stood up, and smiled at Winona. "Okay!"

Winona was stunned. Seeing Mikayla's smile puzzled her.

questions were each more brutal than the previous ones. Winona stood beside Jaxon, her expression twisted. She knew from the reporter

this moment, Carlos and Mikayla held hands and walked out of the room. Their natural intimacy made the media give up interviewing Jaxon and Winona and turn toward them. That was the kind of bloodhound the media were! If someone were newsworthy, the reporters would surround them, and if someone else appeared
