Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 315: Rebeccas eyes sparkled with excitement at the mention of the parkour competition.

She gently nudged Allisons back.

Thinking about it? Rebecca knew well that deep down, Allison had a secret passion for this kind of thrill.

Allison didnt bother glancing back; instead, she flashed a quick thumbs-up.

Yeah, if I can squeeze it in, Ill definitely check it out.

Right now, her focus was glued to the auction.

As the next item came into view, a slight furrow formed between Allisons brows.

It was a jade lotus pendant.

The design tugged at her memory, as if it had danced across her mind before, though she couldnt quite place it.

Regardless, it caught her eye.

Once the auctioneer presented the piece, he immediately announced, The starting bid for the Jade Blossom Pendant is three hundred and sixty thousand dollars.

Its unique charm stirred quite a buzz, and soon the price climbed to seven hundred thousand.

With a calm hand, Allison raised her paddle.

Seven hundred and seventy thousand.

Kellan turned his gaze toward her.

Hardly had the words left her mouth when Kellan raised his paddle, too.

Eight hundred and fifty thousand.

Allison found herself momentarily speechless, confusion washing over her.

Kellan had just tacked on an extra eighty thousand to her bidwas he genuinely trying to outbid her? Before she could gather her thoughts, Kellan added, I promised you before.
