In an instant, Rosalind turned pale. She felt as if she were struck by lightning.


    Jean was also shocked. Her whole body froze.


    “Mom! What’s going on?!”


    Rosalind gritted her teeth as cold sweat beaded her forehead. “Didn’t you sell this ne? Why did it


    appear at the auction?!”


    “I… I did sell it. That’s impossible!” Jean muttered in shock.


    “What should I do now?! Justin is right there! He definitely saw the ne. What will he think of me


    when he sees his token of love being auctioned off? He will definitely be angry with me!” Rosalind’s


    chest was filled with resentment and anger. She almost burst into tears.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    “It’s okay! This ne can’t be the only one in the world. There might be another one out there…”


    “It’s the one and only! The auctioneer just introduced it. Justin had it made just for me! How could you


    possibly get away with this lie?”


    Both mother and daughter were panicking at the moment.


    Rosalind was thinking about how she should exin it to Justin.


    Jean was thinking about why the ne she sold to the pawn shop appeared here and why it was


    donated in the name of KS Group.


    Suddenly, she sat upright, attracting contemptuous nces from the people around her.


    Did that pawn shop belong to the Thompson family?!


    There were so many treasuresing into the pawn shop every day, but the Thompsons donated this


    inconspicuous ne to the charity auction. How could there be such a coincidence?


    Jean’s mind was buzzing. Her eyes bore a hole into Anna’s back.


    ‘It must be that bitch’s doing! Only Anna would know that “The ming Heart” was Justin’s token of


    love for Rosalind. Anna must be resentful about it because it wasn’t hers, so she made sure the


    Thompsons donated this ne to the charity auction. That way, she could drive a wedge between


    Justin and Rose!’


    In the front row, Justin’s face seemed frosted over.


    His chest was heaving violently under his fine suit. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead and slowly


    slid down his face.


    “Justin, are you okay?” Ryan was frightened by Justin’s abnormal reaction. He was also confused.


    “The ming Heart” represented Justin’s devotion to Rosalind. He was involved in every painstaking


    step, from the design to the selection of materials to hand-carving by the designer.


    This was the first time Justin had shown such affection to a woman.


    However, his heart was quite literally being auctioned off on the stage in front of him. He felt humiliated,


    like he was stripped naked and pinned up front to a pir of shame, in full view of the public.


    “The representative of KS Group said that this piece, ‘The ming Heart’, is a token of love from an


    affectionate man. It is of great significance. True love cannot be priced, so this item will be ced for


    bidding in the room at the back for silent bidding. We have also followed KS Group’s suggestion and


    implemented no base price for this ne.”


    Rosalind slumped in her chair. Her eyes were dark.


    Everyone was interested in this bidding method. The hall became even livelier than when the antique


    rosewood chair was up for grabs.


    Justin could not bear it anymore. His eyes were red, and he spat out two words through his gritted


    teeth.


    “Stop this.”


    “What?”


    “Stop the auction immediately. That ne belongs to me!”


    Ryan was astonished. His mouth gaped open at that knowledge.


    At this time, Justin noticed that Asher’s seat was empty. Anna had left at some point.


    Justin clenched his fist and mmed it on the armrest. The chill around him made Ryan shudder.


    ‘Anna, that’s a damn good trick! Are you happy now that you’ve humiliated me?!’


    The show that Be arranged was about to begin, but she lost interest in watching it and left early. At


    that moment, she went to the bathroom and sighed, facing the mirror.
