Chapter 234
"With an astronomical bid of three billion dollars, Joseph secured the winning bid for a necklace. The audience watched in awe as the staff gingerly presented him with the ""Heart of the Queen"". His fingers delicately lifted the vibrant necklace, its red gems catching the light and glistening brilliantly.
Holding the Heart of the Queen, he turned to a dazed Cassie. His voice, deep and compelling, commanded her to rise. Still in a haze, Cassie complied, her eyes reflecting his striking presence.
A captivating smile curled on Joseph's lips as he leaned in to place the necklace around her neck. His voice, seductive and deep, whispered into her ear, “From now on, you’re my queen.” The admiring guests erupted into a collective ""Wow"".
Cassie's heartbeat quickened – the price tag made her heart ache, but the moment felt akin to a wedding, a delusion of nuptial bliss with this man who seemed to fulfil every desire she had. She had never expected Joseph to have such a romantic streak. The red diamond necklace against her creamy skin shone with an elegance fit for a queen.
""Thank you, I love you,"" Cassie murmured, tiptoeing to kiss him gently on the lips under the watchful eyes of the audience. After the kiss, her cheeks flushed a captivating pink, aware of the multitude of eyes on her. She was becoming more irresistible by the moment, igniting in him a desire to consume her completely.
In the distance, Arthur Lewis turned away, his heart tearing apart. He had found it hard to believe when Cassie said she had fallen for Joseph, but now it was undeniable. The girl who once had eyes and a heart only for him was truly smitten with another, a man superior in every way, richer and more accomplished. Overwhelmed with anguish, Arthur couldn't bear another second at the event and turned to leave.
Suddenly, a screen on stage that had been dim lit up. The audience presumed it was a scheduled highlight reel, but the unfolding scene stunned them all. Voices filled the speakers
""Aren't you scared Andrew will find out you're following me, huh?""
""He knows, and he doesn't mind. He’s the one who asked me to accompany you.""
""Ha ha, you're right. It's an honor for him that I fancy his girl.""
""...""
A, a scandalous conversation echoed through the room, the man's face was pixelated beyond recognition, while the woman's was left agonizingly clear for all to see—it was none other than Olivia, the talk of the town these past days.
Just the other week, Andrew had been flaunting her at parties, rubbing elbows with the high society crowd. Everyone knew Olivia was his girlfriend. But what shocked them to the core was the revelation that Andrew knew all along—he had actually arranged for his own girlfriend to accompany other men. It was a terrifying revelation.
Tonight's auction had drawn countless women and young ladies, all of whom now looked at Andrew with disdain and disgust. Andrew panicked. He couldn't believe someone had dared to leak a video of Richard with Olivia. Who would do such a thing? ""Turn it off, now!"" he bellowed, fuming with rage. But no one cared to listen; the crowd relished the drama unfolding before them."
