True Love Waits
Chapter 1200
Chapter 1200 Generous Mrs. Huo
'It's just an auction. Why did Matthew invite both Phoebe and me? What does he want?' Erica thought.
While the crowd watched, Phoebe waved at Matthew gracefully and called his name enthusiastically. But she knew she had to at least acknowledge Erica, so she reluctantly nodded to her. Erica gave her a fake smile and thought, 'This woman is really annoying. It's like she's stalking Matthew.'
Matthew held Erica's hand and helped her sit down first.
Erica wasn't playing that game, though. She was about to take a seat, then suddenly moved one seat over. Now Matthew had to sit next to Erica, no matter what. Phoebe would be on the end. And Erica was there, smiling smugly. She wasn't going to let Phoebe get any closer to Matthew than she already was.
After the person in charge of the event walked away from them, Erica whispered in the man's ear, "You told me you weren't inviting Phoebe along. Why is she here?"
Matthew looked at her, a hint of a smile in his eyes. "She isn't here because of me."
If his suspicions were correct, Phoebe might be attending this charity auction representing the Su family.
"Then why is she here?" Erica said, in a demanding tone. If she hadn't chosen a seat first, Phoebe would have sat next to Matthew.
After thinking for a while, Matthew answered honestly, "Hard to say. Maybe the organizer knows that Phoebe and I are friends, and invited her along." After all, he had attended quite a few events with Nathan and Phoebe before.
What he said made sense. Seeing that she couldn't win this one, Erica dropped the topic. She didn't care why Phoebe was there as long as Matthew hadn't specifically invited her.
Many people saw Erica and Matthew sitting together in the first row and whispering intimately. While they didn't know what was being said, this helped bust the rumor that Matthew was in love with another
woman.
Soon, the auction formally began. It was held once a year, and the guests were famous people in the city. The items on auction were real rarities.
The first item was a jade pendant from the Qing Dynasty with two fish as decoration. Its final price-six million-shocked Erica.
Matthew handed the bidding sign to Erica and said, "Bid on whatever you want." Knowing that his wife was loath to spend money, he added, "I'll pay for it. Consider it a gift from me. Use my credit card!" Sure enough! His words excited her. "Really?"
"Absolutely!" He had never lied to her.
