SWNOVELS Mystey Chapter 126
Chapter 126
Selina raised her eyebrows and thought. Herbert didn't mock me. It's really strange)
Since he didn't come to quarrel with her, she didn't say anything, waiting for the charity auction to start. After the introduction of the host, the auction items were presemed, including antiques of different times,
There were also out-of-print handbags and jewelry from super famous brands.
After all, it was a high-end charity auction. All the items met the S-level standards.
During the auction. Selina took a fancy to an out-of-print handlig from Louis Vuitton. The starting price was 500 thousand dollars. She was delighted and raised her hand. "I million dollars." After several bids, when Selina was about to speak, a disgusting voice came out. "1.5 million dollars."
She looked over and saw Cora staring at her arrogantly. It was obvious that Cora wanted to upset her. As for Timothy, he looked away and didn't want to be involved in their competition.
She didn't expect that there would be people she hated today. With a smile, she raised the price without hesitation. "3 million dollars
The audience burst into an uproar.
Selina, you..." Herbert wanted to say something but stopped. He thought, Trevon can afford it. But it is just a waste of money on her showing off. Trevon is so pitiful,
"4 million dollars" Cora competed with Selina on purpose. When the final price came to 6.5 million dollars, Selina shrugged and gave up.
After the host announced the result, Cora was arrogant like a peacock.
Glancing at Selina, Herbert was surprised at her giving up. He had thought that someone would deliberately increase the money. Then she would lose her temper and compete with them to the end. After all, she spent Trevon's money. But she didn't continue. He had to admit that she was smart and knew that if she continued, she would waste a lot of money.
Every time Selina bid, Cora would raise the price from hundreds of thousands of dollars to millions of dollars.
Even Timothy couldn't stand it anymore. He immediately stopped Cora. "Mom, don't bid anymore. It's enough to humiliate Selina so many times.
"Humph... It's just more than 30 million dollars. I can afford the money. Just take it as the charity of the Clark Group. It's so great to see that Selina can't get anything she wants!"
Cora stopped biding. As the wife of the CEO of the Clark Group, she also had a lot of money. The company didn't give much charity budget this time, so the rest had to be paid by Cora herself.
Although there was a premium, Cora thought it worth taking this opportunity to get back at her, because Selina humiliated her and Sara at the airport.
What they didn't know was that in the eyes of others, Cora had already been regarded as an easy touch. Although the Clark Group was rich, the premium was more than 30 million dollars. This was cash that couldn't pay one's debt..
Felix's affairs had been exposed a few years ago, and Cora had gone all out to turn the tide. Thus, the impact on the stock price of the Clark Group had been reduced to the minimum. This made Felix feel very guilty about Cora. Otherwise, Cora would be scolded by him even if she had spent his own money.

Chapter 120
Herbert couldn't help asking "Did you do it on purpose?"
Selina rested her chin on her hands and yawned lazily. "Since Cora likes to use this money to make a hit, just let her do it. I don't care. Although the Clark Group is wealthy enough, It's not worth paying more than 30 million dollars to vent the anger."
Herbert pursed his lips. The money was not a small sum even for the top groups like them. They had to spend a lot on the management and distribution of various industries, and the development of new projects. Only Cora dared to do so recklessly because of the guilt of Felix
When the next bidding item was delivered. Selina's eyes lit tip.
It was a pair of crescent earrings. They were green and a little brown, with a sense of history. The identification result showed that they belonged to a lady in the 1990s. The time might be very early but couldn't be determined.
Although they were an antique, they had no collection value because of the time. Therefore, 500 thousand dollars was the starting bid, and only a few people bid. Selina offered 1.5 million dollars and no one competed with her.
Cora wanted to raise her hand but was stopped by Timothy. He indicated Cora not to waste arry more money so she had to give up.
Kolling hereves. Ashley pulled Sara's arm and said, "Mommy, the crescent earrings are so beautiful. No wonder Selina likes them so much. I like them too."
Hearing that, Sara would try her best to get the crescent earrings before. But this time, she just nodded and replied, "Yes. they are beautiful."
Ashley bit her lips and lowered her head. She knew that the Harvey family treated her in a totally different way after they knew Selina was Angel. Although people in the Harvey family was still good to her, she couldn't fight for what Selina wanted, and Sara wouldn't help
her.
The auction was over
Selina paid and got a box with an exquisite pattern. She opened it and saw the earrings. She stared at them and showed her liking.
Cora walked in and sneered at her. "Just a pair of worthless earrings. Why are you so happy?"
Selina put the box into her bag and said indifferently, "It's better than 30-million-dollar antiques. Recently, the business hasn't been good with low cash flow. Mrs. Clark is so generous."
At this time, Ashley and Sara came in. Seeing them arguing. Ashley hurried forward to stop them. "Mrs. Clark, Selina, please don't quarrel. I really feel sorry for you."
Cora snorted, "I'm not like you. I don't spend the group's money but mine. But you... It seems that Mr. Brady doesn't give much money to you. You just took a pair of earrings worth 15 million dollars in the whole bidding. It's too cheap. Ashley, which one do you like? I'll give it to you."
"Oh, this... Mrs. Clark, this is too expensive. I can't accept it. Ashley pretended to refuse. Although Cora bought them at a premium price, each of them was worth millions of dollars. If she got one, she would have a large amount of money.
