Chapter 157

Ross didn’t dare to bid for the painting anymore, nor did anyone else in the hall.

Evan couldn’t bear it any longer. Continuing like this was akin to humiliating Jessica, putting her in an awkward position.

In a burst of anger, Evan raised his paddle. “Twenty thousand dollars.”

Evan wanted to shout out an extravagant bid of two hundred thousand dollars to help Jessica.

But given the Ramos family’s current financial difficulties, he thought it best to save wherever possible.

Jessica. tightly bundled up, saw Evan bidding. Although it was just a mere 20 thousand dollars, she felt relieved that the situation wasn’t completely embarrassing.

However, the next moment, the auctioneer apologetically said, “Mr. Ramos, this painting was donated by you on behalf of Jessica for the charity auction, so you cannot bid on it yourself.”

Evan was stunned.

The crowd burst into laughter at the sight.

“Evan tried to help Jessica, but it’s even more embarrassing now.”

“She deserves it. Shameless people like Jessica deserve this.”

“I can’t believe how much Evan dotes on Jessica. Yet, he’s so cold and ruthless to his own daughter. I really don’t understand…”

“Of course, because Jessica knows how to pretend and act coquettishly. She’s so shameless!”

When Jessica heard the mocking around her, her face turned extremely gloomy, filled with venomous hatred. She couldn’t believe her bad reputation couldn’t be whitewashed at all.

The painting Jessica prepared on stage didn’t receive a single bid. It just failed to sell.

This never happened before.

Many journalists at the event immediately posted this event online.

Some perceptive journalists sensed something unusual. No matter how notorious Jessica was, the painting was genuinely valuable, yet no one dared to bid for it. Even Ross, who initially wanted to bid, suddenly changed his mind.

They knew Jessica had offended someone extremely powerful. She was probably going to be banished from showbiz.

In the second row, Joseph nudged Ashley, raising his eyebrows, and whispered. “Ashley, do you know why Ross suddenly changed his mind and didn’t bid?”
