Chapter 252 What else do you like
The auction started at eight, and Filip also took Starry for a stroll around the nearby square before the two passed.
By the time we arrived, it was already 7:55, and the venue was basically full of people.
Starry was led by Filip into the venue, one after another eyes fell on the two holding hands.
Today’s auction venue, there are many people who know Filip, and many people who know Starry.
These two, previously married when not together once to participate in such occasions, two years after the divorce, but is holding hands together out, this thing is naturally attracted a lot of people curious, surprised.
To curious, no one dares to really ask to Filip’s heel.
Filip had an invitation to come, but he had Mr. Robertson turn it down earlier.
This evening, the organizer was surprised and amazed, and hastily arranged for the staff to prepare a second floor seat for Filip.
Filip looked to Starry, who found nothing interesting on the second floor: “Let’s just sit down.”
Anyway, it’s just a visit, no need to make such a big show.
“There’s no need to prepare, we’ll just sit around.”
Filip directly listened to Starry, the staff hurriedly responded, before leaving a look at Starry, the heart only felt the ghost.
Isn’t this President Pearson’s ex-wife?
The two picked a random seat and sat down.
Several people on the second floor have been a little less calm, Filip and Starry is not divorced?
Didn’t they both get married by agreement and then divorced?
Did they not go online for a few days and these two got back together and they didn’t keep up?
From time to time, there are surprised eyes, but Starry does not care much.
She flipped through the booklet in her hand, learning about the items to be auctioned this evening.
She doesn’t really come to such occasions, she used to accompany old Mrs. Pearson twice when she was in the Pearson Family.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
In fact, the whole process is quite boring, most of them are some gadgets, not much good stuff.
There’s nothing particularly nice about each night, it’s all about bags of jewelry.
Starry is not interested in these, before the Pearson Family, her closet inside the clothes are changed monthly, jewelry is more box after box, but she does not look at the feeling.
The only thing she was interested in was some jade.
But playing with jade is not something ordinary people can afford.
Last year, on a whim, she went to an auction with Izabella and auctioned off a pair of gemstone earrings for over $800, 000.
Tonight there was a diamond necklace that I heard was worn by Mrs. Thomson in Adjan City, before the Thomson Family went bankrupt.
Look at the picture that the necklace is exquisite and beautiful, but the starting price of more than one million two hundred thousand, there is no two million, this necklace is most likely not to take down.
Starry only looked at it and flipped it over.
Other are some what limited edition bags, Starry interest is not much, only swept a glance and turned over.
She was casually flipping through it when Filip suddenly reached out and took the booklet over.
Starry lifted his head and gave him a look.
Filip turned to the page of the necklace she had looked at a few more times, “Like this one?”
She raised her hand to hold her chin, one side of her broken hair scattered down, Starry raised his hand to tease it, “It’s pretty.”
“Let’s shoot it for you, OK?”
Filip took her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.
Starry inclined her head and looked at him for a moment, “It’s okay.”
More than two million is a lot of money for her, but for Filip, it might as well be the money of a random car.
He played with Dillon and their cars, a car are tens of millions of dollars, she remembered that the most expensive one inside his garage, it seems to be more than 100 million.
Filip clasped her hand and gently rubbed the back of Starry’s hand.
The venue has completely quieted down and the auction will start immediately.
That necklace is not the grand finale of the evening, probably the third to come out.
As soon as the auctioneer’s words left his mouth, Filip raised his card straight away.
With a starting bid of one million two hundred thousand, Filip called for two million straight away.
“Two million, this gentleman offers two million! Two million once! Two million a second time, two million – two million one hundred thousand for this lady!”
Filip raised his card once more, two and a half million.
This time no one followed, after all, a necklace, the value is there, two and a half million a necklace, is already considered a very high price.
With a hammer down, the necklace was just slapped down by Filip.
After it was over, Starry was led by Filip to pay.
“Ms. Bradley, President Pearson.”
Hearing a familiar voice, Starry looked to one side.
They arrived late and didn’t even notice that Lucia was actually there.
Starry smiled slightly, “Something wrong, Ms. Scott?”
“This necklace, can you let me have it?”
As soon as Lucia’s words left her mouth, Filip had already cut to the chase: “No.”
Lucia’s face stiffened and she could only look at Starry: “Ms. Bradley, could you please give way to me? This is what my friend asked me to take down, this is her mother’s relic, President Pearson can buy a better necklace for you, just give this up.”
Lucia opened his mouth is moral kidnapping, but unfortunately, Starry always does not eat this.
She smiled and repeated Filip’s words from earlier, “I can’t.”
Why didn’t you follow the bidding for such an important necklace just now?
Lucia probably thinks that there is no need to premium so much for a necklace, she is big deal to get off the stage to give some compensation, and then complain, the other party will agree to it.
Unfortunately, this opponent is Starry.
Filip had already finished swiping his card, and he gave Lucia a faint look: “Since you didn’t add anything just now, it proves that this necklace, for you, is not that important either.”
He hit the nail on the head, and Lucia couldn’t get the words out of her mouth.
Filip finished and glanced at Starry, “She likes it, and since I got it, Ms. Scott should stop taking it away from people.”
The words said this, Lucia can not say anything else.
She forced a smile, “Sorry, it was presumptuous of me.”
Filip took Starry and left straight away, not intending to listen to her again.
Many people recognized Filip and Starry, and then looked at Lucia, and for a moment, there was a lot of speculation.
Starry got into the car, looked at Filip on one side, and laughed, “President Pearson is so ruthless.”
Filip knew the meaning of her words and he was a little helpless: “She and I were never together.”
“Is that so?”
Starry of course is convinced, but Filip and Lucia is more or less friendship, now said to turn the other cheek, she the spectator, watching, cool is quite cool, but also is to illustrate, Filip this person, is indeed cool.
Probably guessing what she was thinking, Filip turned to his side, “Don’t worry, I’ll never do that to you.”
“So much for not being allowed.”
“Then – wait and see.”
He said, handing Starry the slip, “They should have the necklace to you tomorrow.”
“Thanks, I enjoyed it.”
Filip just appreciated her generosity and straightforwardness: “What else do you like?”
