Red Wine Poured Over Her Head
At the auction, Amanda followed Elias into the grand hall. It was a prestigious event exclusive to
wealthy and privileged individuals. She sat beside him but was absent-minded.
The auction and menced with an emerald bracelet from Deskolor, emanating an air of vintage elegance
nious allure.
The auctioneer introduced the bracelet’s origin. “This bracelet is the creation of the renowned Fliaria
jewelry master, Larina. She dedicated three years of craftsmanship to design it, bestowing it the name
aralleled.’ It’s a symbol of perfect love, believed to bring happiness and fulfillment to its recipient. We’ll
begin the bidding at 10.5 million.”
10.5 million? She did not pay attention to the auctioneer’s lengthy explanation but did catch the number
of the price mentioned. This is ridiculously expensive. Who in their right mind would spend 10.5 million
on such a bracelet?
Elias’ pitch-black eyes fixed on the bracelet displayed in the showcase as if he were staring at his prey.
He glanced at Amanda’s wrist as if noting the absence of a bracelet as an accessory.
On the other hand, she only hoped to endure this tedious auction and could not bear to stay for another
second. Unexpectedly, the man beside her raised his paddle, capturing the auctioneer’s attention.
“Excellent! The gentleman at Table 6 has made a bid. Starting at 10.5 million, do we have any higher
bids?”
She was dumbfounded as she gazed at the handsome profile of the man beside her. “Are you out of
your mind? Why are you bidding on this?”
Does he intend to give it to me? Amanda could not fathom where her sudden confidence came from as
the thought crossed her mind until Elias’ cold voice cut through. “It’s none of your business. Besides,
it’s not for you.”
“That’s good.” She felt relieved. She believed he might be the only one interested in that ordinary
bracelet, and no one would compete with him.
In the next moment, the auctioneer announced, “The lady at Table 10 has placed a bid. 10.65 million
for the first time!”
Amanda could not help but turn her head and look. At Table 10 was an elegant and noble-looking
woman who appeared to be a young lady of means.
Why does this woman look so familiar? Where have I seen her before?
Without sparing a glance backward, Elias promptly raised his paddle to increase the bidding.
The woman at Table 10 also persisted with her bids as if they were determined to outdo each other,
neither willing to concede.
Amanda could not bear to watch anymore. The price of the ordinary bracelet keeps rising closer and
closer to 15 million with each bid. Is it truly worth that much?
“Are you planning to raise the bid to 15 million?”
Elias fixed his gaze on the emerald bracelet in the showcase and lazily replied, “When I want
something, I make sure to get it. No one can compete with me.”
Speechless, she realized she should not have asked. The world of the wealthy is truly beyond my
understanding
“The gentleman at Table 6 has placed a bid of 15 million! 15 million for the first time 15 million, second
time! 15 million, the third time! Sold’ The Unparalleled bracelet will now belong to the gentleman at
Table 67
Amanda felt speechless and cast a disdainful glance at the man beside her. What a spendthriji,
spending 15 million on such an ordinary bracelet. To whom is he planning to give it to Bat home could
that mysterious teeman at Table 10 give up now when the bidding for the bracelet has reached 15
million?
She could not help but turn her head for another glance at the woman. Although she was quite far
away and could not see the woman’s face, she could not shake off the strange sense of familiarity.
Two hours later….
The auction was ongoing, but Amanda and Elias left as she made the excuse of being hungry. So, he
took her to an open-air restaurant located on the rooftop of a hotel. From there, they could enjoy the
cityscape at night and gaze at the starry sky.
It was a romantic dating spot that any woman would love.
They settled in a corner, where a gentle breeze brushed against them. From their vantage point, she
could turn her head and see the bustling night view of the entire city.
“Do you like it here?” While flipping through the menu, Elias glanced at Amanda’s serene profile.
She smiled faintly. “You must’ve brought Grace here before.”
He fell silent, realizing he had been exposed.
She knew she had hit the mark, and a flicker of surprise in his eyes almost made her burst into
laughter. She explained, “I know traditional masculine men like you wouldn’t be familiar with places like
this. You must’ve brought a woman here before, and Grace’s positive reaction made you assume that
all women would enjoy it here-
Before she could finish her sentence, Elias frowned in displeasure and placed the menu before her.
“Enough with the nonsense and order your food.”
Amanda chuckled and picked up the menu to browse through it.
“Miss, what would you like to eat?” The waiter smiled beside them, ready to take her order.
She opened the menu and quickly skimmed through the options. The prices listed were quite high, and
just looking at them made her feel full. However, since Elias was the one paying, she did not have to
worry about the cost.
“Well…” She was about to speak when suddenly, a person rushed toward her and deliberately poured
a glass of red wine over her head.
It happened so suddenly and unexpectedly that no one had a chance to react, not even Elias, who was
sitting across from her.
“Ah!” Amanda let out a cry of surprise and looked up, taking a few seconds to recall who the woman
was that had poured wine on her.
It was Lunabelle, Simon’s ex-girlfriend.
She seemed to instantly understand why Lumabelle was so angry. She probably thought I betrayed or
cheated on Simon as his wife. It seems that his ex-girlfriend cares a lot about him.
Lunabelle posed with an indifferent attitude as she looked at Amanda’s disheveled appearance.
In the next moment, Elias abruptly stood up and pushed Lunabelle aside. He walked to Amanda’s side,
taking a napkin to wipe off the wine from her face. “Why haven’t you called the cops? Useless!” he
scolded the waiter nearby.
The waiter was stunned as it was the first time he had encountered such a situation since he started
working.
“Call the cops! I’m going to sue him for assault!” Lunabelle exclaimed angrily, holding her forehead as
she lay on the ground.
Amanda turned her gaze toward Lunabelle and noticed that she had hit her head on the sharp edge of
the table, resulting in a bleeding wound on her eyebrow. Blood was trickling down her eyebrow.
Curious glances filled the restaurant as speculations about a possible love triangle spread through the
air.
Elias did not even glance back at Lunabelle and snorted. “If you can win the lawsuit, fl acknowledge
your abilities.”
“You despicable couple!” Lunabelle watched the scene and felt pity for Simon, questioning his choice of
Amanda as a partner. She even doubted if Aiden was his biological son, wondering whether Amanda
had been cheating on him and betraying his trust all along.
