“It’s all because of me. Only by doing so can she provoke me,” Selena said with a bitter smile. Taking a deep breath, she continued, “She just wanted to let me know that no matter what, she’s still the mother of the twins, and this connection can never be broken. It also shows that she has an unmovable spot in Pierre’s heart.”
Unwittingly, she had to admit that Meredith had reached her goal because she really received the blow.
“President Yard, you should tell Pierre straight away that it’s Meredith who is playing tricks! This bad woman! Looking so pure on the surface but is more petty than anyone else on the inside!”
Selena sighed, thinking that it would be pointless to do so. “Let’s go back.”
For the whole day, Meredith was restless. To avoid suspicion, she had started working again, but not the official filming of TV series or movies, just some variety shows.
While she sat in the lounge, she kept checking her cell phone, but there was no news at all. The Royal Auction had always been secretive, and even the participating bidders had to go through a strict scrutiny. Since she was not eligible to participate in the auction, she got someone in the auction to keep an eye out for her.
Suddenly, her phone rang, and she regathered her messy thoughts. Then, she rushed into the washroom and picked up the call. “So, how are things going?”
“Pierre’s assistant has successfully won the bid for the jade bracelet.”
“Really? Are you sure it’s him who won the bid?” she asked in disbelief. At the same time, she was so excited that her voice went up one notch higher.
“This bracelet was very popular, and there were a total of three bidders fighting for it. In the end, it was sold at one hundred and ten million. Even being in this industry for so long, this is the first time I’ve seen someone buy a bracelet that isn’t that valuable with that amount of money. It’s truly an eye opener for me. I can never understand the world of the rich.”
“One hundred and ten million?” she gasped, shocked at the price because she didn’t think that Pierre would be willing to spend that much on her! Even though he had given her some valuable jewelry before, one which cost a hundred and ten million was a first! This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“That’s right. The deal is sealed and done. The paperwork is completed, and the bracelet has been taken away. By the way, I kept an eye on the president of JNS Corporation like you told me to. She participated in the bidding and called until a hundred million before stopping.”
So Selena joined the bidding but couldn’t outbid Pierre, she thought, overjoyed.
“Alright, I got it. The money I promised you will be transferred to your account soon.” After hanging up, her hand holding her cell phone trembled.
Pierre still cares for me, she thought. Simply by saying that this was very important to her, he spent a hundred and ten million to buy this bracelet for her. Furthermore, he outbid Selena for it.
No matter what, she was the biological mother of the twins, and no one could change this fact. I’ll never allow anyone to change that, she thought to herself gleefully.
Later, her manager, Landy Hubertson, burst in and said, “Are you ready, Meredith? It’s our turn for the recording now. I’ve already spoken to the host of the show, and he won’t mention the gossip between you and Pierre.”
Previously, a few media agencies knew about the news of her marriage with Pierre, and some of them were even invited to the wedding. But the wedding turned out to be a revenge and was called
off. Although the Yard Family had made a note to the media so that they wouldn’t report anything regarding the wedding, there were already some reports suggesting the wedding before it even happened. In the end, there were no follow-up reports.
