In less than five minutes, the bid for the pink diamond had already reached a price of 13 million dollars.Many jewelers were forced to give up. Fewer and fewer people bid on it. Cory got impatient. He immediately bid for 20 million dollars, which caused an uproar."Cory is really trying to win her heart tonight! How generous of him!""Of course. Do you think he's just here for fun?""Who do you think Cory is? He's already made it clear that he wants the pink diamond. Anyone who dares to outbid him must have a death wish on their hands."Jane's vanity was satisfied like never before as she listened to the chatter around her.She wanted to thank Cory when she heard a hoarse woman's voice ring out from upstairs. "25 million dollars."The entire crowd went wild. They looked up at the VIP private room upstairs. It was a pity that they could only see a shadow on a screen."There's another big boss here today?""I didn't hear of anyone else. Perhaps it's just some young punk who d

In the end, Agatha got impatient.That morning, she went over to Otto's room. She asked through the door, "Otto, do you admit your mistakes?"Otto's tone was cold. "If by mistake you mean me refusing to obey your arrangements for marriage, then I can tell you that I will keep making the same mistake.""You …" Agatha was furious. "You're really stubborn! Last time, it was because of Yvonne Miller. Now it's because of some floozy woman! You're really a disappointment!"At the beginning of the year, Agatha had been delighted when she had heard that Yvonne had gone missing. She had thought that, with Yvonne not around, Otto would return to being the way he had been before. So, she had let him take over the family business once more.Who would have thought that another unknown woman would come out of nowhere?The more Agatha thought about it, the angrier she was. She really couldn't believe that she had failed to discipline her great-grandchildren!At that moment, Edith came rush

Ella came to her senses as she saw Otto turn around and head out to the courtyard. She frantically got up and followed him.Virginia was a little worried upon seeing how annoyed Otto looked. She went over to Samuel and asked, "What do you think Otto is saying to Ella?"Samuel looked at the courtyard intently. "I don't care what he says. If he dares to upset Ella, I won't let him off the hook!"Ella followed Otto to a big tree. She asked feebly, "Otto, what did you want to say to me?""I agree to marry you."Ella was delighted. "Are you for real? You're going to marry me?"Otto furrowed his brows. Seeing Ella delighted irritated him to no end."Since you're already happy, stop with all the other unnecessary things," Otto warned coldly.Ella was a little stunned. She asked stiffly, "W-What other things? Otto, are you not here to tell me good news but because of that other woman? Are you saying that I can't interfere?"Ella felt aggrieved. She choked up."We're just friends." Ot

Yvonne got her assistant to serve them tea before slowly telling Nicole the purpose of the meeting."I plan to organize my own jewelry exhibition back in the country. All of the jewelry will be designed and made by me. Can I let you handle the promotion and marketing of the exhibition? What do you think?""No problem!" Nicole beamed. "Ms. Miller, I've always been waiting for you to hold your own exhibition. It will be my honor to be able to help you with such an important event!"Yvonne chuckled. "You're being too modest. Since I left the country, you've made Miller Jewels and QT the top jewelry brands in the country. "Getting you to help me with my exhibition is underusing your talents. I just can't find another person I trust. Could I trouble you—""Ms. Miller, you're being too polite!" Nicole quickly said. "I always remember that I managed to come this far because of you."After exchanging polite pleasantries, they looked at each other and smiled. "Alright, then. I'll be di

The next evening, Benji knocked on Jane's door. Jane opened the door, but before she could see who it was, a bag came flying at her."Cory wants you to put this on. You'll be meeting a client with him tonight."Benji was about to leave, but Jane pulled him back."Has Cory forgiven me?" Jane asked."What?" Benji turned around to look. "You fought with him again?"Jane was stunned. "I don't know what I did wrong. He just got angry at me yesterday.""Oh." Benji was disappointed. "It's only normal for him to flare up. If you can't take it, don't show up in front of him."Jane tightened her grip on the bag. "I just don't want to be yelled at for no reason. At least let me know where I went wrong."Benji shrugged. "Not everyone deserves an explanation from Cory."Jane quieted down. She looked at Benji as he left before returning to her room to change.…On the way to the restaurant, Cory completely ignored Jane.Jane could no longer take it. She said, "Cory, what did I do wrong?
