Chapter 65 Snatching Candy

As expected, Sophia finally snagged the necklace.

Michael shot Sophia a puzzled look, not getting why she was so set on it. Sure, the sapphire necklace was stunning, but it didn't really suit a young girl.

Turning to Emily, Michael asked, "Do you want it?"

Emily sighed, "I do. But it's too late now, right?"

Indeed, Emily did want it, but she had her eyes on the "Lucky" hairpin even more.

She could only watch as the sapphire necklace ended up in Sophia's hands, silently vowing that one day she'd get it all back.

Michael stayed quiet as the third auction item was brought out. Sophia noticed a bunch of Isabella's designs being auctioned off and wondered if Isabella would be happy or pissed if she were awake.

Out of nowhere, Emily felt a bit down. She glanced at the charity auction catalog and saw that the "Lucky" hairpin was the third-to-last item. There were still tons of items to go, and she didn't want to sit through Isabella's works being auctioned off one by one.

Emily suddenly felt a bit suffocated and queasy. The constant sound of the auctioneer's gavel made her chest feel tight.

Clutching her chest, Emily said, "Michael, I don't feel well. I'm gonna step outside for some air and hit the restroom."

Michael felt it too, feeling nauseous and uneasy. He said, "I'll come with you."

Before Emily could protest, he stood up and pulled her along. They headed to the restrooms, each going to their side. Emily felt nauseous but couldn't throw up.
