The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Chapter 617

Earlier, Abby and Antoney had still felt a touch of resentment.

Their loyalties lay with Stella-they were willing to pool together ten million to stand up for her.

But to spend thirty million just to buy a painting...

Calling it foolish would be an understatement. It was downright senseless.

If Sellers and his group ended up paying thirty million for the painting, that would actually feel like justice.

Just as everyone thought the bidding would end there, a sudden voice rang out from the back of the hall.

"Fifty million!"

A collective gasp swept through the room as every head snapped toward the bidder.

It was a young man in his twenties, unremarkable in appearance, blending easily into the crowd.

The auctioneer stammered, "Sir-are you sure... did you mean that amount?"

The young man smiled politely. "My employer is very fond of this painting. He instructed me to buy it at any price."

He glanced over at Sellers. "Mr. Burton, would you like to make another bid?"

Sellers had always been willing to spend extravagantly for Aurora.

After all, if he had anything in abundance, it was money.

But thirty million was already pushing the limit for a painting like this.
