Chapter 236
Chapter 236 Tit-for-tat
Anastasia paused and stopped smiling.
"I don't think I need to tell you where I am."
She didn't want to quarrel with Christian in front of everyone. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing.
Christian ignored the coldness in her words and walked over.
"The auction on the second floor will start soon. Do you want to go and have a look?"
Anastasia frowned and didn't want to go.
Zachary stood up and said with a smile, "Well, I see two acquaintances. I will go and say hello to them. Ms. Graves, see you later."
He nodded to Anastasia gently, so that Anastasia wouldn't get anything against him.
As soon as Zachary left, Anastasia didn't want to sit face-to-face with Christian, so she stood up and went to the second floor.
The second floor was also magnificent and dazzling, but there were fewer people.
The items were very expensive, so only those who were interested in the auction came.
Anastasia looked at the antiques and jewelry displayed in the glass cabinets.
Among them, the deep blue gem named Tears of the Ocean in the middle was the last to be auctioned.
However, the starting price hadn't been set, which meant that it would be auctioned at the highest price tonight.
Anastasia raised her eyebrows. Christian walked behind her.
"Do you like it? Shall I buy it for you?"
Anastasia pursed her lips. "No need. It's not like I can't afford it."
What was more, she didn't want it.
Jane, who was surrounded by people, also came.
As one of today's protagonists, her every move attracted a lot of attention.
She stood with the Patterson family and cut the cake, which meant that she would marry Christian soon.
The engagement rumors were very likely to be true.
Jane walked over with a smile. "Ms. Graves, tell Mr. Patterson what you like. He will buy it for you."
Her words made everyone around her feel that she was generous.
She acted like Christian's wife.
Christian nodded and looked at Anastasia.
Anastasia didn't want to get involved in their relationship. She felt disgusted, as if she had stepped on the shit.
She sneered, "I feel guilty for taking things from others. I like to buy them myself."
Jane couldn't help laughing.
"You deserve to be the director of the entertainment company. Now when people mention a strong woman, they will think of your arrogance and stubbornness. My family has always asked me to learn from you."
She seemed to praise Anastasia, but in fact, she mocked and targeted Anastasia.
It was not that the others didn't know about it, but they all felt that the tit-for-tat between the two was turbulent.
Anastasia was indifferent. She wasn't irritated. Instead, she smiled calmly.
"You don't need to learn from me. Everyone has their own strengths. Your accomplishments in piano are unparalleled.
"You should have won many international piano awards, right?
"It's enviable."
Anastasia looked at Jane innocently and humbly.
Jane's face froze, and her lips turned pale.
She had played the piano for years, and she bought the awards with money in the country.
She was not qualified for the top foreign piano competitions that Anastasia mentioned...
