The Luna Is Gone by Angelique Quinn

Chapter 33

Diana’s pov

Many people have already cast their gaze at us, and even those who were originally fighting against the guards have stopped.

After all, with Nathan’s appearance and identity, wherever he went, he was the focus

of the crowd, the most eye–catching being.

And now, he actually proposed to participate in the competition in person.

This was much more exciting than watching unknown racing drivers racing wildly.

A heated discussion came from the crowd–

“Alpha Nathan! Why does he suddenly want to race?”

“Didn’t you hear that? He wants that sapphire brooch.”

“Ah? But Alpha Nathan is so rich. How could he lower himself to participate in a race just for a brooch.

“I know! Do you see the beautiful girl next to him? It seems to be Avia! It must be Avia who wants that brooch, so Alpha Nathan decided to compete to satisfy her.”

“Oh, by the way, have you heard about it? In fact, at the last auction, the pearl bracelet was still taken by Alpha Nathan. I heard he spent 800 million on that bracelet to give it to Avia.”

“I’m too shocked. Isn’t this Avia too lucky?”

My thoughts returned to the auction with all the discussions. A sarcastic smile flashed from the corner of my mouth.

So… Was Nathan doing it again for Avia?

I casually glanced at Nathan and asked in a cold voice, “Why should I agree?”

Nathan raised his eyebrows, his eyes teasing.

“It’s just a game. Don’t you dare?”

“Just ignore him.” Victor took my hand and said, “It’s a provocation. Don’t waste time on him.”

Of course I knew this was Nathan’s provocation.

If it were at another time, I might mock his childishness and then pay to take the brooch and leave.

But now, something suddenly reminded me.

“Okay, I agree,” I said calmly, “but I want to increase the bet.”
