The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 189

Chapter 189
The bid of the painting kept increasing even though it had far exceeded the amount it was worth
To Natalie’s surprise, more and more people raised their bidding paddles as the auctioneer called out the prices in high spirits.
Natalie went back to her seat beside Yandel and pushed her glasses up her nose lightly, looking like a young man.
“One hundred and fifty million!”
“One hundred and sixty million!”
The corner of Natalie’s lips twitched when she heard the numbers. This is ridiculous!
Yandel did not miss the change in expression on her face as he whispered, “Boss, you and that lady are amazing! The bid for the painting rises to a great extent because of your performance. There is a chance that it will become the item that is sold at the highest price in today’s auction!”
“I wore a veil. You still recognize me?” Natalie frowned.
She did not wear the veil to cover her freckles. Instead, it was because she did not want anyone to find out who she was.

“Well, I could still see your eyes. Even the dancer was not as calm as you were on the stage.” Yandel paused for a second before continuing, “I’ve known you for years and I’m used to seeing you in the hyper-realistic mask, so I can recognize you just by looking at your eyes. That said, that doesn’t mean that other people would be able to recognize you just now.”
Natalie nodded in response.
The bid was still increasing as seconds ticked by.
“Five hundred and eighty million going once!”
“Five hundred and eighty million going twice!”
“Five hundred and eighty million going thrice!”
As the gavel fell, the painting, The Flying Goddess, was sold at a price ten times its original value.
Yandel was not shocked at all at the price it was auctioned off.
Meanwhile, Natalie had a plan in her mind and said, “Yandel, I need you to do
something for me.”
Yandel nodded. “Okay…
“Given the high auction price of the painting, the dancer who performed just now probably can’t leave here easily tonight. Get some of our men to protect her secretly so that she won’t be hurt by the others who have bad intentions.”
Yandel was amazed by how meticulous Natalie was. Immediately, he rose to his feet to make the necessary arrangements.
The rest of the lots were brought onto the stage and were soon auctioned off. Most of them were rare antiques. However, none of them was sold at a higher price than The Flying Goddess.
After a long wait, it was finally the turn for the dragonblood fruit. That object was the reason why Natalie came to the auction.
Godfrey, who was going to reach the age of ninety, walked onto the stage with the help of his assistant. “The last lot today, the dragonblood fruit, is the highlight of today’s auction…
The dragonblood fruit, shining in bright red color like a ruby, was placed on a piece of silk.
Everyone in the auction hall could see the features of the fruit clearly displayed on the screen.
