Chapter 214 He’s a Liar

Miranda’s voice was so loud that many people at the auction could hear

Moreover, he became increasingly excited as he spoke, to the point. where even the auctioneer on stage had to stop.

“Was there something wrong with this woman?”

“About to accept Mr. Walsh’s proposal, and she could still say such things?”

“What business is it of hers what Mr. Bruce gives to other women? He has nothing to do with her!”

Hearing the surrounding discussions, Jacob’s face looked very bad.

“Miranda, lower your voice, stop talking, everyone in the room is listening to you.”

Upon hearing Jacob speak of her in such a way, a malicious glint flashed in Miranda’s eyes.

“Jacob, you felt embarrassed now, didn’t you?”

“Afraid of losing face, why didn’t you buy that Cloud–Moon Necklace for me?”

Jacob’s face felt as if it had been publicly slapped, burning hot.

He took a deep breath and said softly. “Miranda, calm down, don’t fall for Robin’s tricks. What he did today was deliberately to provoke you.”

Chapter 21416

Miranda immediately became much quieter, her originally angry eyes slowly calming down

Jacob continued, “Miranda, think about it, Robin had no foundation, where did all that money come from?”

“He snapped up the Cloud–Moon Necklace for five billion, and no one knew where he got it from.”

“Perhaps it was from the Huber family, or perhaps it was swindled. from Cecilia to put up a front.”

“His intention was just to annoy you, and you really fell for it.”

Miranda rolled her eyes, a hint of contemptuous smile flashed across her lips, “I almost fell for his trick! Jacob, you were right! That bastard Robin did this just to provoke me!”

Jacob continued, “Robin might have known that I was going to propose to you today, and out of jealousy, she followed us here and deliberately gave the necklace to Crystal.”

Crystal listened to the foolish conversation between the two, shaking her head.

These two walked together, they were such a perfect match.

This kind of imagination was not something that an ordinary person could come up with.

Alright, you two do whatever makes you happy, as long as it doesn’t disturb public order.

“Miranda, after you marry me, the ten billion assets of the Walsh family will all be yours,” Jacob said excitedly, holding Miranda’s hand.

“Adding the shares of the Brown family that you held, the assets you

had at that time were beyond what Robin could imagine.”

“Mmm mmm mmm! Miranda nodded, deep in thought.

Seeing that Miranda was persuaded by his words, Jacob continued.. “Miranda, didn’t you come here today to bid for the Licorice Herb for your grandfather?”

“You did these things for Grandpa, and he was so pleased that he surely gave you the shares of the Brown Group he held in his hands.”

“Think about it, how much wealth would we have held in our hands in

the future?”

“Back then, let alone one necklace, even three or four, we could afford to buy!”

“Moreover, the money Robin used to buy the necklace wasn’t even his.”

“Hehe, just a loser with no background, mingling at the bottom of society. Is he really worth your anger?”

Listening, Miranda suddenly burst into a joyful laughter, “Jacob, you’re always so thoughtful! How did I not think of that?”

“Hehe, Robin is just a rootless weed, a floating duckweed. Why would I get angry just because he provoked me? It’s so boring!”

Thinking of this, Miranda glanced sideways at Crystal, sneering. “For all we know, this necklace might be given to someone else after the auction!”

Crystal didn’t pay her any more attention, instead looking towards the stage where the auctioneer continued to showcase the auction items.

Roxie glanced at Jacob and Miranda, stunned for a good while,

muttering to herself. There are still such idiots in this world.”

Upon hearing this. Miranda had wanted to lash out at Roxic.

However, thinking of her identity as the daughter of the leader of the Hlashville Martial Arts Union, he ultimately didn’t dare to curse out loud.

“Jacob, during the proposal ceremony later, make sure to emphasize it well, let everyone know that we are the happiest couple.”

Jacob laughed out loud, “Yes, yes, yes! Miranda, rest assured, when I propose. I will make sure everyone can see your happiness, hahaha…”

Miranda was also excited, laughing heartily, “Hahaha…”

The auctioneer at the front desk was interrupted by their unrestrained laughter, frowning and saying, “Please quiet down, or the security at the venue will have to escort you out!”

Jacob and Miranda suddenly stopped.

Next, several luxury items were auctioned off at the auction site.

Compared to the previous rivalry between Robin, Roxie, Jacob and others, it lacked some drama and fun.

Soon, the entire process of the first half of the auction had ended.

At the end, the auctioneer announced that a proposal ceremony for Jacob and Miranda would soon take place on the stage of the auction during the intermission, hoping that all guests would watch and participate.

After the auctioneer announced this matter, Miranda subconsciously looked towards Robin in the VIP seats.

Chapter 211 He’s a tiar

At that moment, Robin was getting up and walking towards the exit of the auction hall.

Cecilia and Livia followed behind him.

The group of people in the auction hall saw Robin and others heading towards the exit.

A passage was immediately cleared.

Miranda snorted coldly, getting up and chasing after.

Seeing Miranda act like this, Jacob and Crystal also ran towards the door.

“Robin, wait a moment!” Miranda pushed through the crowd and rushed to Robin’s front.

Robin looked at Miranda standing in front of him, raised his eyebrows, “What’s up?”

Miranda looked at the indifferent expression on Robin’s face, “Robin, why did you leave the auction hall? Were you upset and wanted to hide when Jacob was about to propose to me?”

Crystal then hurried over, “Miranda, what are you doing?”

Miranda pushed Crystal away, “This is none of your business! I was asking him, why did he leave the auction hall? Why didn’t he attend the ceremony where Jacob proposed to me?”

Robin asked indifferently, “Does your proposal have anything to do with me?”

“How is it not a big deal? Didn’t you come here today just to show off in front of me?” Miranda sneered at Robin.

“You made such a fool of yourself. Giving Crystal a necklace, wasn’t it all just to provoke me?”

“Did you know that Jacob proposed to me, and now you’re leaving the auction house, are you trying to hide your anger and sadness?”

“Boring!” Robin bypassed Miranda, continuing to walk towards the door.

Seeing that Robin was ignoring her. Miranda was extremely angry. “Bastard, how dare you treat me like this!”

She caught up and once again rushed in front of Robin. “Stand still. you think not attending Jacob’s proposal ceremony to me…”

Livia stepped forward, “Get lost! If you bother Mr. Bruce again. believe it or not. I’ll slap you to death!”

Miranda subconsciously took a step back.

Seeing Cecilia and Livia following closely behind. their eyes coldly fixed on her, she hurriedly said, “Ms. Decker, Ms. Colon, let me remind you, Robin is a fraud, he’s after your money…”

A cold smile played on Cecilia’s lips. “Do I need you to teach me how to do things? If you keep insisting that Mr. Bruce is a fraud. I. Cecilia, won’t mind taking down the Brown family!”

Miranda jumped, and Jacob quickly grabbed her. “I’m sorry, Ms. Decker, Miranda is feeling a bit unwell today.”

Everyone knew what kind of person Cecilia was. Once she said something, she would certainly be able to do it.

“Control your woman!” Cecilia said coldly. “If she continues to gesture and point in front of me, her hands and feet will no longer be necessary!”

Crystal hurriedly stepped forward to mediate

She knew that if it hadn’t been for Robin’s sake, Cecilia would have turned Miranda into a corpse long ago.

Cecilia saw Crystal approach and gave a slight nod, “Ms. Thompson, hello”

Miranda, Jacob, and even Crystal herself, were all stunned.

In all these years at Hallcester, never had Cecilia, this queenly figure high above others, voluntarily greeted anyone with respect.

Crystal was stunned for a while, and it took her a long time to recover. “M–Ms. Decker, hello.

At that moment, Crystal realized that Cecilia might have treated her with such respect because she thought she was Robin’s girlfriend.

Thinking of this, Crystal was extremely happy!

She grabbed Robin’s arm, “Robin, thank you.”

Robin glanced at her sideways, slowly removing her hands, “I’ve already given you your birthday gift, okay?”

“Absolutely, too absolutely! Hahaha…” Crystal got so excited for a moment that she almost burst into uncontrollable laughter.

Seeing that everyone around was looking at her, she quickly stopped, “Uh, Robin, you could have just given me a cheaper gift, but you actually spent 50 billion. I’m a bit embarrassed.”

Seeing Crystal’s excited expression, Robin pursed his lips and thought to himself, “So you do have moments when you feel embarrassed?”

“Hello, Mr. Bruce, Ms. Decker!” Israel said, briskly approaching with

the Barrett family in tow

“During the halftime break. Mr. Bruce was asked to have a light tea in the VIP lounge of the Fantasy Hotel.

Crystal immediately let go and stepped aside.

Robin nodded. “Okay”

Miranda had wanted to continue speaking, but several servants of the Barrett family had blocked her from the crowd.

Watching Robin walk towards the VIP room surrounded by Cecilia. Livia, and the Barrett family. Miranda was full of confusion.

She stood for a long time. muttering to herself. “Why would the Barrett family invite him for tea?”

“Shouldn’t it be? Mr. Israel should have invited someone like Mr. Reynell, how could he have invited a loser like Robin?”

Looking at Cecilia and Livia following behind Robin, they looked exactly like maids and attendants. She was even more puzzled.

What on earth did this bastard Robin do?

These lofty families and big shots actually all showed him such respect?!

Could it be… Could it be that Robin really had a secret I didn’t know about?

At that moment, the staff of the auction house came to urge.

“Mr. Walsh, Ms. Brown, the committee had already prepared the stage for you. Please return to the auction hall for the proposal ceremony. Time is limited, you only had fifteen minutes.”

Jacob quickly responded, “Thank you, we’ll be right there.”
