His was still in his possession, while the other piece disappeared alongside his sister until now…
How can the foolish Mary claim that the jade isn’t worth ten million? What does she know?
Even Hera was given a shock, for she hadn’t expected the red jade to be so valuable. “Mr. Yates, it’s
ten million… Are you sure about it?”
“Ten million it is,” Ryan repeated firmly.
“Ten million, going once… Ten million, going twice… Ten million—”
Right before Hera finished, a crisp voice rang out suddenly. “Eleven million.”
It belonged to none other than Ashlyn.
Most of the guests present didn’t feel that the red jade was worth ten million.
After all, it was the size of a small seal and would be valued at a few million under the best
circumstances.
Following Ashlyn’s bid, another deep male voice rang out. “Twelve million.”
She cocked a brow in Richard’s direction. “Richard, why are you fighting with me over this?”
“Ashlyn, I want the red jade too. I’m curious to see how much it’s actually worth.” Richard flashed a
gentle smile at her. “It must be a treasure to have piqued your interest, isn’t it?”
Although a grim look flashed across her eyes, Ashlyn quickly let out a chuckle. “Indeed. I found the red
jade familiar but can’t, for the life of me, remember where I saw it before. That’s why I’m bidding for it to
satisfy my curiosity.”
“Since you’re not really interested in it, Ashlyn, why don’t you let me have it?” The gentle smile on
Richard’s face remained.
Raising her brows, Ashlyn lowered the paddle in her hand. “Don’t be a stranger, Richard.”
Her gaze subsequently drifted toward Ryan. The latter looked handsome in his white-tapered suit.
Every movement of his was a masterclass in elegance, living up to the fantasy-like reputation of Piano
Prince.
After looking intently in Ashlyn and Richard’s direction, Ryan raised his paddle again and proclaimed
with conviction, “Fifteen million.”
The jump of three million blew everyone away and triggered an icy glint in Richard’s eyes.
“Mr. Yates, is the Yates family really that desperate for this piece of jade?”
“Mr. Shaw, you can’t believe how enamored with it I am,” Ryan replied with an emotionless look. Yet
the determination in his tone was unmistakable.
Mary pouted as she asked, “What’s so special about it, Ryan? It looks pretty ordinary to me.”
“I’m surprised you can’t tell.” Ryan gave her the side-eye. “It seems you don’t know the Yates family
well enough, Mary.”
The lesser Mary’s knowledge of the jade’s significance, the greater the resentment Ryan harbored
toward her.
By then, he was a hundred percent certain that the former was an impostor.
Not only has she enjoyed the riches of the Yates family by pretending to be my sister, but she also
sullied the family’s reputation. My real sister would be carrying the red jade on her and have no
problems recognizing it. Given that it’s something she had worn since she was a child, there’s no way
Mary wouldn’t recognize it. This can only mean one thing—she isn’t the sister I lost years ago.
“Uncle Ryan, isn’t it too much to spend so much money on a piece of jade? Wouldn’t Granny be angry
if she found out?”
Penelope, too, gave Ryan a worried look.
Just as he was irritated by the voices of the two foolish women, he heard Richard’s deep voice ring out
again. “Sixteen million.”
As Richard continued to stare at the red jade on stage, he began to exude a domineering yet elegant
aura.
Right beside him, Shiela was admiring the bravado he was showing. The legendary Mr. Shaw is none
other than my fiancé. Her heart would flutter every time the thought crossed her mind.
“Twenty million,” Ryan called out assertively, frustrated that he had to compete with Richard for the
item.
The jade meant everything to the Yates family but was no more than an ordinary jewel to anyone else.
