“One million it is! It’s a deal! This agate stone belongs to this couple!
The host had worked in the auction house for so many years, but he had not seen anyone who would buy such a piece of agate stone with for one million dollars.
Eleanor and Franklin were dumbfounded.
They felt really cool when they were bidding, but now that the agate stone was their, they were suddenly speechless. Did they really buy a stone for a million dollars?
At this moment, the staff came over. “Sir, please pay here.”
Franklin took out the card. This card was given to them by Deacon. They had squandered a lot of money, but they did not know how much money was left in the card.
One million was a huge sum. What if the amount left in the card wasn’t upto one million?
Franklin closed his eyes and swiped the card.
A beep sounded, and the payment was successfully made.
“Sir, one million has been paid. This is your agate stone now. Please keep it,”
the staff said politely.
and then he left.
There was really upto a million dollars in the card!
Eleanor and Franklin were elighted. It seemed that it wasn’t only a million dollars in the account, but maybe there was several millions in the account.
The money should be enough to fund their entire extravagant lifestyle.
Franklin sat back and then he said loudly, “One million is nothing. My son-in-law has a lot of money In his account. Some people don’t have money, Go to bed.”
Of course, Oriana, who was next door, heard these words. She raised her delicate eyebrows and did not say anything.
Joyce looked at her daughter. “Oriana, you really can’t hold your breath. What they spent was Deacon’s money, which is your money,”
Oriana smiled, and said, “Mummy, don’t worry…
The host continued. “VIPs, we’re going to auction a Silly. This Silly was most loved in the 1960s, and even the president was a fan back then.”
The host bragged about the Silly.
Joyce quickly said, “Oriana, quickly raise the placard, this Silly is incredible, the starting price will be about fifty thousand.”
When Eleanor and Franklin next door heard it, they couldn’t wait to raise their cards, “Sixty thousand!”
As soon as their words were heard, the audience burst into a loud laughter.
The host quickly made a final decision, “Sixty thousand once, sixty thousand twice, okay, the deal is done. This Silly now belongs to this wonderful couple.”
Eleanor and Franklin had no idea what item was being auctioned, they had only raised their cards. because Joyce was excited to be bid for it.
“Sir, ma’am, congratulations, please enjoy this song now,”
the staff smiled enthusiastically.
What exactly was the Silly?
Eleanor and Franklin spent sixty thousand dollars, but they were still curious about what they had bought.
At this moment, many people walked over with their musical instruments. One of the instrumental commanders waved his baton with all his might, and the melodious music sounded.
Franklin was stunned.
How could they have thought that Silly was actually a musical performance?
They bought a song for sixty thousand!
Eleanor and Franklin had no musical skills, nor did they know how to appreciate it. The song that was being played was like a lullaby, and they almost fell asleep listening to it
At this moment, they felt that everyone’s eyes were on them. People pointed to them, as they laughed at them with sympathy. Their st upidity made everyone to mock them.
Franklin and Cleanor felt extremely ashamed, but they could only put up a straight face.
After a long time, the song finally ended.
Joyce laughed, “Sily means stupid. The couple next door spent sixty thousand on a song. It seems that there are really foolish. We applaud them.”
Joyce nodded and started to applaud. Everyone quickly followed. There was a flood of applause and laughter from the audience.
Eleanor and Franklin couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. This time, they had been humiliated. They felt that they were clowns who spent their money to entertain others.
In a snap of a finger, over a million was gone, so they bought a piece of broken rock and a piece of music. Franklin and Eleanor regretted it.
“This auction is not interesting at all, let’s go!
“That’s right, even if we were rich, we wouldn’t come to this place to spend!TM
Eleanor and Franklin suddenly stood up, and they shamefully hurried out of the hall.
With Eleanor and Franklin gone, the auction was much quiet. Oriana looked at Joyce, and said, “Mummy, you’re really amazing.”
Joyce raised her them a little le lips, and said, “If anyone dares to bully my daughter, I will definitely teach
At this moment, Oriana felt that Annabelle was not feeling well because Annabelle’s hands were pressed on her chest, as if she wanted to vomit.
“Aunty Annabelle, what’s the matter with you?’ Oriana asked concernedly.
Annabelle quickly stood up, “Oriana, I’ll go to the bathroom.”
With that, Annabelle left.
“Annabelle, are you not feeling well? Wait for me…”
Joyce wanted to follow.
Oriana stared at Annabelle’s figure, as she thought for a while, then she reached out and pulled Joyce, “Mummy, stay here, I’ll go see Aunty Annabelle.”
“But…”
Joyce muttered worriedly.
“Mummy, don’t want to bid for that book?”
Joyce was instantly reminded of the reason she came to the auction house.
“Mummy, don’t worry, I’ll take care of aunt Annabelle,”
Oriana stood up and left.
Oriana went to the bathroom. She saw Annabelle bending over and vomiting. Her face was very pale. “Aunty Anabelle, what’s wrong with you?”
Oriana asked.
Annabelle stopped vomiting. “Oriana, I don’t know what’s wrong me. My appetite has not been very good recently, and I often feel like vomiting.”
“Aunty Annabelle, stretch out your hand, I’ll check your pulse.”
Annabelle obediently stretched out her hand.
Oriana raised her hand, and started to feel her pulse. Soon, she gently frowned.
“Oriana, what’s wrong with me? Am I sick?”
Oriana withdrew her hand and slowly raised her red lips. “Aunty Annabelle, there’s nothing to he worried about. I think the cold weather may be affecting you. I’ll give you some medicine.”
“That’s good.”
“Aunty Annabelle, let’s leave this auction house now and take a special plane to Imperial City,”
Oriana suddenly said.
Annabelle paused for a moment. “Oriana, why did you suddenly change your schedule? You’re going to fly to Imperial City immediately. What about Alpha?””
Oriana held Annabelle’s arm and said, “Aunty Annabelle, don’t worry about Alpha. I’ll call him now, and he will immediately rush to Imperial City to join us.”
Annabelle looked at Oriana suspiciously. She knew Alpha too well. Alpha said that if he would not return to Imperial, and his words were final.
Oriana’s clear eyes now twinkled calmly.
It was extremely urgent to rescue Bounty and unravel the mystery of the Armstead family.
Annabelle had a weird feeling about the sudden change in Oriana’s plan.
“Alright then,”
she replied calmly.
Sadie came to the hallway and said in a low voice, “Princess, the special plane is ready. Bounty and Rory have both boarded the plane.”
Oriana nodded, “I’ll call Alpha and get the car ready. Aunt Annabelle and I will go later.”
“Yes, Princess.”
