Chapter Contract Marriage With The Disabled CEO BY Woody Rain 140
Chapter 140 Julia Davis’s Pen
Betty was curious about the relationship between this man and Kerwin. He mentioned Julia Davis, so who was Julia Davis?
Were the three of them good friends before? Did this man like Julia Davis as well?
When Betty found that James Davis had
mentioned Julia Davis, Kerwin’s eyes
revealed a trace of sadness. In his heart, Julia
Davis was still missing him.
Betty, who was walking, asked, “Kerwin, who on earth is James Davis? Don’t you like
him?”
Kerwin acted as if he did not hear Betty’s
words and continued walking forward.
At this time, Emily had already returned to
the inner hall of the auction hall and was
sitting in the front row with Jeffrey.
Kerwin was sitting on the left, while Jason was on the right. The two handsome men were there to escort them. Many women
came to see them and made hostile
expressions toward Betty and her.
James also came back and took a seat, right in front of them on the left.
He saw Betty and others. James greeted Betty politely. Betty also smiled and nodded at him.
The stage, the lights, the opening show. The
auction began.
The host spoke a bunch of official words about charity and welcoming celebrities in
the business world. Roughly half an hour
later, the auction officially started.
The first item to be auctioned was James’s
donation.
A pen.
After listening to the host’s introduction,
Betty found out that the handsome man
James was the first young master of Davis
family, which was also Julia’s brother?
That also explained why he missed Julia so
much.
The host introduced, “Don’t look down on this pen. Please look carefully at the diamond inlaid on it. It’s of a high class and it
takes a lot of effort. This is a handmade diamond pen donated by Davis family. this pen is an inestimable souvenir. This is the old
item of his sister, Julia, when she was alive. The pen is well preserved and there is only one
custom-made.”
As soon as the pen appeared, Jason
Thomas’s and Kerwin’s faces changed.
Kerwin’s expression sank as he furrowed his
brows.
Julia...
Kerwin fell into deep memories.
This was the birthday gift he gave to Julia, who was just 12 years old. He hoped she could improve her studies and get the first
place in the entire department.
Kerwin remembered that Julia liked this pen very much. James, who was still a teenager at that time, wanted to pick it up to have
a look,
but Julia didn’t listen to him.
I didn’t expect that after many years, James would take out this fountain pen to auction
for charity!
Kerwin’s expression became even uglier.
Jason muttered to himself, “James is too
cruel.”
Jason knew James’s character very well. He
was obviously taking revenge on Kerwin and
deliberately provoking Kerwin.
Jason’s words were heard by Betty, who was
next to him. She also wanted to know the
reason, so she asked Jason why he said so.
Jason knew about the past of Julia and Kerwin. So he whispered to Betty secretly,
“This is a birthday gift given by Kerwin in the past.”
Betty, who had seen Kerwin’s face, was
indeed in a bad mood.
Oh, I see.
Betty thought that it was no wonder that Kerwin was so nervous and angry that his
ex-girlfriend’s item had been taken out to be
auctioned.
As Julia’s elder brother, how could he not cherish his younger sister’s legacy? Didn’t he know what this gift meant to Julia and
Kerwin? Or did he come here to auction this
pen on purpose to make Kerwin angry?
What exactly was Kerwin thinking at this
moment?
The host said, “Mr. James, would you like to
come to the stage and have a few words with
everyone?”
Seeing James get up and walk over, the host
said with a smile, “Welcome.”
James picked up the microphone elegantly, and the woman under the stage immediately marveled at how handsome he was.
James cast his gaze at Kerwin and said, “The reason why I took out my sister’s belongings to donate to the auction today is to
save
virtue and gain happiness in heaven. At the same time, it is also to help the poor obtain
the help of life. I think if my sister were still alive today, she would also agree with my
actions today!”
There was applause from the audience.
After James went back to his seat, the host. said, “Well, let’s start the auction now. The reserve price is 12,500 dollars. Let the
auction begin!”
This pen was exquisitely made and well preserved. Under the illumination of an
incandescent light bulb, it was indeed a beautiful item. The pen head of the pen was
made of pure gold, and the pen was written
smoothly. It had not been damaged for many years and was indeed worthy of possessing.
It was also very prestigious to use it to sign a
contract.
Everyone began to bid and was eager to have a try.
“12,500 dollars!”
“18,750 dollars!”
“25,000 dollars!”
Many people were determined to get it. This
was the first collection in the auction. Everyone wanted to get the first prize.
Kerwin clenched his fists so tightly that his palms were sweating. He’d been enduring it all this time, but now that he saw the
people who came to participate in the auction were so interested in this pen, he finally couldn’t hold it back anymore. No matter
what, he
had to obtain this pen!
This pen could only belong to him! He couldn’t watch it be taken away by a
stranger. He knew that if Julia was still alive,
she must be very unwilling! She loved the
pen that he gave her so much!
Jason and Betty turned to look at Kerwin. They didn’t know whether he would take
action or not.
Betty’s heart was conflicted. She did not want Kerwin to vie for the treasure, nor did she
want Kerwin to be a person who did not care about old friendship.
What would Kerwin do? He had treasured a
crystal necklace for many years. Betty just took it out and looked at it, and he was already so angry. What’s more, he was going
to sell this pen to someone else. Would he be willing to do that?
At this time, Julia’s voice and smile repeatedly appeared in Kerwin’s mind.
She smiled at him and gently called out,
“Kerwin! My pen, I like this pen. You gave it
to me...”
The bidding had already started to get
heated. No one wanted to give way to the
other.
“125,000!” Kerwin suddenly raised his
bidding paddle.
Everyone cried out in alarm. This was
currently the highest bid!
Many people stopped bidding and gave up. It
had far exceeded the original price of the
item.
Kerwin finally won the bid. He wanted to buy this pen because it belonged to Julia, who
was known as Julia. He would never forget
the person in the past.
Betty, who was stunned, had an
indescribable feeling in her heart.
