Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Chapter 449

“… Alright. I’ll concede to Mr. Wood and… Mrs. Wood,” Aurum answered.

Aurum knew how to evaluate the situation.

He would have to spend close to three billion dollars, and he would even make an enemy out of Shawn. No matter what, it was not worth it.

He would lose too much!

The auctioneer said, “Alright! Mr. Wood has put in a 2.8 billion dollar bid! Is anyone going to bid anything higher? Then, I’ll formally announce that a deal has been made for the Heart of the Sea! Mr. Wood has won the bid!”

That was met with a lot of applause that did not stop.

However, Gale did not feel happy at all.

When she needed money, Shawn acted so stingy and petty, not giving it to her. She had been forced to pick up trash and recyclables.

To him, that had just been a completely insignificant amount of money. It would have gotten her mother the special medication, but he refused. It ended up making her mother worse.

Yes, the crown looked incredibly beautiful. Any woman would want it. However, Gale felt like the crown would not affect her life at all!

It was nice to have something pretty, but she wanted someone to save her!
