Chapter 158

The bidding for an ordinary bracelet soaring to 800 thousand dollars. was beyond everyone’s expectations.

It was all because of Ashley’s fame that drove up the bracelet’s value.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a glamorous lady bid. “Eight hundred and sixty thousand dollars.”

Patrick, unwilling to back down, bid. “Nine hundred thousand dollars.”

The host, noticing Patrick’s frequent bids, playfully quipped. “It seems you have a special liking for this necklace, Mr. Roberts.”

With a shy smile, Patrick replied, “My girlfriend likes Attelia, so I thought I’d try to win it for her.”

Hearing this, the crowd laughed. “Patrick is always so caring towards his girlfriend, always remembering what she likes.”

Joseph gave Ashley a thumbs up, impressed by her popularity.

Ashley looked back and saw a rather handsome young man, not yet thirty, blushing and scratching his head shyly as everyone praised him.

Joseph thought it would be a satisfying outcome if Patrick secured Ashley’s bracelet for his girlfriend.

But the next second, he heard Kevin bid. “Nine hundred and forty. thousand dollars.”

Patrick seemed to struggle, only raising by ten thousand dollars. “Nine hundred and 50 thousand dollars.”

Kevin bid again. “One million dollars.”

Then Patrick lacked the confidence to continue, and no one else in the hall bid either.

It was evident to everyone that Kevin was determined to claim Ashley’s
