Chapter 314

Marguerite was breathing heavily The man who haunted her dreams was now sitting not too far from her. How she yearned to reach out and trace his eyebrows and his eyes. But Marguente couldn’t.

Because she saw Yuna, sitting next to Frederick, laughing flirtatiously into his ear Yuna’s lips were close to his, and he didn’t seem to mind. He glanced at Marguerite nonchalantly before turning and wrapping an arm around Yuna’s waist After three years, they were finally together and seemed genuinely in love.

The bid Maurice shouted out made Robert a tad urgent, but also full of bewilderment.

Eight million was no small sum. Even the top elites would ponder whether this bracelet was worth the price.

Just as the auctioneer was about to bring down the hammer, Marguerite saw Frederick grab Robert’s paddle and call out an even more astronomical figure Ten million!

His voice was light, carrying his signature languid charm.

Marguente stared at his back, feeling a gnawing pain spreading within her.

The auction house sent two staff members. One of them led Maurice and Marguerite to the VIP lounge to discuss if they could privately negotiate the ownership of the bracelet with Frederick Marguente was yearning for Frederick, but all she wanted now was to leave as soon as possible His affection for Yuna made Marguerite’s heart ache so much that she could hardly breathe Just watching from afar was unbearable. How could she bear to face him in person?

Before she could refuse, the double doors of the lounge were suddenly pushed open.

Marguente looked up to see Frederick holding Yuna’s hand, walking in her direction.

Marguentes clenching her fists. She wanted to escape, but Maunce held her by the shoulder As Fredenck drew closer, every step he took felt like a knife cutting into Marguente’s chest, causing excruciating pain Then, he stopped in front of them and said indifferently,
