Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again

Chapter 701: I won’t hesitate to Spend Money

Except for those from Justin Conrad, the auction lots in this charity party were all provided by people who were working with or seeking partnership with the Conrad Group, just like Caesar James.

The average items won’t even get to the party.

Therefore, every item lot was of extraordinary significance and value.

Elaine looked at the lot list carefully, thinking that she could even bid for one or two for her father and for Sherry if there is something suitable.

Sitting by her side, Caesar said, “Elaine, is there anything you like? I will buy one for you.”

“No need, I have...”

Halfway through the talking, Elaine suddenly remembered that all her bank accounts were frozen. She choked at the word “money”.

Seeing her embarrassment, Caesar smiled, “If there’s anything you want to buy, just tell me. You took huge fright in the incident, so I should give you something to make it up for you.”

Hearing his words, Elaine started to itch for a try in the bidding. “Then I will send uncle a gift too when I return to the Riverside City.”

Caesar said, “I look forward to it.”

“Sure!”

Elaine nodded happily. But when she was about to select her item, she found her hand empty and the lot list was gone.

Before Elaine had said anything, Darnell uttered, “No need to look at this. You don’t have any money.”

Elaine pouted, “But Caesar said he would buy one for me!”

“Don’t you remember what you’ve done and you still want a gift?”

“I…”

Elaine subconsciously wanted to refute, but she felt that her behavior before was indeed too willful, and had affected a lot of people. She could only lower her head and stay silent, dejected.

Caesar persuaded her upon seeing this, “Come on, Elaine. You can take your pick after the auction starts.”

Elaine declined quietly, “Thank you uncle, but I'll pass.”

She should buy the gifts for Dad and Sherry by herself.

Although Clarence had invited her to work for the studio before, she wasn’t paid for the job. Her only income was the pocket money from Stella from time to time.

She still has a small amount of deposit, but it's far from enough to bid for these things tonight.

Caesar looked at Darnell and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something. But the latter just looked ahead with a cold expression, so he didn't say anything eventually.

Soon, the charity dinner begun.

The first lot was provided by Justin, a work of calligraphy that Master Conrad has collected many years ago. And the painting may worth tens of millions.

The starting price is only thirty thousand.

After hearing the price, the crowds were gasping. It was not that they were suspecting whether the piece of work was genuine, but saying that Master Conrad must have no idea about it. If he knew his son would auction this at such a low price, he would definitely jump up from his bed and scold his son to hell, which would definitely be a medical miracle.

Someone couldn't help whispering, “Did Justin Conrad do this deliberately? He just gave away his father's prized collection like it's nothing”

“And I heard that once there was a guy who wanted to buy this calligraphy work from Master Conrad for thirty million bucks two years ago, but he refused.copy right hot novel pub
