Chapter 1509: Chapter 1512: The Impostor Digs a Hole for Himself (Extra 2)
Thirty-seven point five million got the bid, with a cost of three million seven hundred fifty thousand dollars, a neat tenfold profit.
The profit from the auction, after deducting 20% for charity donations, the remaining 80% of the money will end up in the Royal Palace’s accounts.
It has to be said, with Lily giving up the bid, it seems on the surface that Lily has lost.
But in reality, she made a killing.
“Who, who’s been good to you…” Lily wanted to turn her head away, but her chin was firmly held by soone.
His sensual thin lips were pressed against hers.
Although it didn’t escalate to a passionate kiss in public, this lip-touching still caused Lily’s cheeks to unconsciously redden.
“You… let go, a lot of people are watching.” Lily said timidly.
Aidan Lucas smirked and didn’t want to let go.
“What’s there to fear… they’re all looking at Miss Gray who is triumphant behind us, too busy to care about us.”
After saying this, the man hooked the charmingly blushing woman’s face, intending to deepen the kiss.
Suddenly, an inopportune cough was heard from beside them.
“Cough, cough cough…” Larry Scott held it in for a long ti but couldn’t anymore.
“Both of you pay attention, this is an auction.”
He whispered a reminder, finally understanding what David Redington had been complaining about the other day, the so-called ‘display of affection’ thing.
Being so unabashedly affectionate in public, who knows how lovey-dovey they could be at ho.
No wonder it had driven the usually cool and detached Aaron to complain to him, looking to get married.
Hearing her uncle’s cough, Lily imdiately pushed Aidan Lucas with a blushing face.
Thankfully, Aidan Lucas still cared about Lily’s dignity.
He loosened his grip slightly, allowing the blushing Lily, who was bowing her head too embarrassed to face people, to return to her seat.
Ha… What a cute little woman.
No matter how many years pass, she will always be as adorable as the ti they first t, capable of easily lting his heart.
“Uncle, I’m sorry.” Aidan Lucas, across from the ostrich-like little woman, said to Larry Scott, seated to her left.
Larry Scott slightly nodded his head, ready to assert his seniority and give so advice.
He then heard Aidan Lucas’s voice follow, “I forgot uncle doesn’t like bringing aunt to public events, always a lone figure. Next ti, in front of uncle, I will pay attention, I will not let our affection irritate you.”
The man’s voice was deep and magnetic, and carried an unabashed joy.
Spoiled by his wife.
At the sa ti, giving his uncle a jab.
Setting Mason Scott and Vivian Walters up.
With these three pleasant experiences, how could he not be in high spirits.
Larry Scott’s temples throbbed painfully from Aidan Lucas’s words.
“Lucas… you…”
At that mont, Larry Scott could deeply understand his nephew’s pain!
He was brewing his words, preparing to retaliate.
In the hall, suddenly the auctioneer’s voice was heard.
“Miss Gray with account number 233233, the balance in your account is insufficient, please co to the front desk with our Event Hostess to complete the remaining paynt for the item, thank you.”
Vivian Walters was smiling triumphantly into the cara at that mont.
Hearing the auctioneer’s words, the smile on her lips visibly froze.
“Insufficient, insufficient balance…?”
It was at this mont that Vivian Walters suddenly realized what price she had paid for her ‘victory’ over Lily Redington.
The well-dressed Event Hostess appeared beside Vivian Walters with a smile.
“Miss Gray, you only have thirty million in your account. After deducting that thirty million, there’s still a shortfall of seven and a half million. Will you pay by card or check?”
