The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Chapter 615

Ten million dollars!

The quiet auction hall erupted in an instant, buzzing with disbelief.

Summer had only been famous for a few years-she wasn't some legendary master with a name etched into art history. No matter how valuable her paintings were, there was just no way one of them could go for ten million. It was

outrageous.

And yet, just as Aurora announced her bid and the shockwaves still rippled through the crowd, Foreman who had been silent this whole time-raised his paddle.

"Eleven million."

Haynes, Jasper, and Rachel, all seated beside him, turned to stare in surprise.

Jasper was the first to speak, his voice incredulous. "Foreman, have you lost your mind? You're really about to drop eleven million on this? Are you sure you're not being reckless?"

Foreman's lips curled into a calm smile. "I came here for this painting, and nothing else."

Jasper muttered under his breath, "But you didn't even make a move when Stella and the others were bidding earlier."

Across the room, Aurora glanced in Foreman's direction, then confidently raised her paddle again.

"Twelve million."

Foreman didn't hesitate. "Thirteen million."

Sherman's face darkened as he looked at Foreman. "Is he just trying to outbid Aurora on purpose?"
