Steal my heart by Savannah Kade

Chapter 139 Shamelessness

Grace had a wish. She hoped that her arrival would slightly influence the James's family's decision. At least, they could somewhat consider her thought and cancelled the auction today in front for her. Yet, things always contradicted to one's will, and that could elucidate the cruelty hidden under the appearance of the James's family.

After a round of rhetoric talk, Jafar who was not far away began to enter the main topic of his speech.

"Therefore, we James family has decided to let Wei'ai Foundation achieve the greatest of its value on the hand of a capable person. This is the decision we made after the family discussion. And now, I hereby announce that Wei'ai Foundation is ready to be auctioned and the opening bid is 80 million."

Grace was all shocked upon hearing that. "It's impossible! There's already 800 million on Wei'ai Foundation's bank statement last year, and its whole property would worth more than two billion after calculating How could it be auctioned under the opening bid of 80 million!" She was dumbfounded.

Caden who was at the side was still composed and was not surprised about that at all. Grace peered at the man's indifferent look beside her and had a hunch. She then quickly glanced at the expression of the people around her and suddenly let out a wry chuckle. It turned out that she was the only one here not knowing the truth.

She looked at Jafar who was taking charge of the event with a mixed expression and tasted bitterness in her mouth. No matter how bitter it was, it was still incomparable to the pain she felt in her heart. How could they be so hardhearted to drain Wei'ai foundation? Even if they did not care for her thought, they should at least care for her deceased grandpa! How could they be so cruel and selfish to destroy their fruit of blood, sweat and tears?

"Haven't you thought that Wei'ai is forced to be auctioned because the father and son of the James family have lost all their property due to their incapability?" To Caden's eyes, Grace who had gone out of jail and used to be docile and bend her knees easily, her eyes had actually gleamed with wit at this moment.

He's laughter, Jafar's rhetoric talk and Mrs. James trying to smooth things out regardless of shame... Grace's hands were trembling, her shoulder was trembling, and her whole body was trembling! "Patrick He, have you ever asked my grandpa yourself whether he's happy in the afterlife?" An abrupt, incongruent rough voice rang in the bright, bustling grand hall. And almost at once, the surrounding became silent enough that even the dropping sound of a needle
