Unfinished Business with You novel

Chapter 1122

Chapter 1122 Robbers

Just then, one of Olivia's close friends joined the auction as well, and she ruthlessly yelled a number that sent Olivia into the depths of despair, "15 million!"

Amy instantly jolted in shock and hurriedly tugged on the woman next to her. "Eleanor, have you lost your mind? Why are you calling out 15 million for it?"

Eleanor replied, "It's pretty. I quite like it!"

"What's so special about it? I used to have a sapphire necklace that looked like this, but the craftsmanship was much finer, and the color was brighter too. It was gorgeous, like a starry sky reflected in a dark ocean, but even a necklace like that was nowhere close to 15 million! You really do have too much cash to burn."

A mocking smile appeared on Eleanor's face. She assumed that Amy was bragging again, but she asked carelessly instead of dwelling on the matter, "Is that so? Then, why haven't I seen you wear it?"

Amy let out an awkward cough. "I didn't like it, so I gave it away."

Hearing that, Eleanor scoffed. "You're quite generous. If I were you, I'd immediately get it back. If this necklace is already worth 15 million, won't that necklace of yours be hundreds of million?"


Amy chuckled sheepishly. "This isn't just about money. How can I ask someone to return something I've given them?"

Eleanor let out another scoff without replying. However, no one else followed after she made her bid, and she scored the necklace with a price of 15 million in the end. Once she had completed the transaction with the staff, she headed back outside.

Amy couldn't help but tease her, "I shouldn't have come with you."

"Why?"

"I'm afraid of running into robbers! This is worth 15 million, you know?"

Eleanor let out a self-deprecating laugh. "Oh, don't you know what situation I'm in? Spending money is the only thing that can comfort me now."

Amy knew that with her husband's exploits, the only thing she had left was her fortune. Hence, she soon calmed down at the thought.

Unfortunately, as soon as they stepped out of the auction house, they were surrounded by a group of men. They appeared to be regular bidders as they were all dressed casually yet exuded an air of extravagance, but their gazes were vicious, as if they could silently end their lives any second.

As she faced the men, Amy shivered in fear.

Her first thought was, It's over! We really ran into robbers! No wonder people always said not to flaunt your wealth—it was no surprise that they were targeted by these robbers when they had just placed a 15 million bid on a necklace!

At that moment, she wanted nothing more than to shove Eleanor forward, then wail to the robbers that her husband was in charge of a small company that was on the brink of bankruptcy, so he had no money, and that it was this other woman who was the wealthy one!
