Chapter 1033: Scar Cream
This matter ended just like that.
Stanford didn't even know how to get out of Phoebe's room. He still clearly remembered Phoebe's pale face and disappointed look at that moment. He felt guilty and almost escaped from her room.
After that, Phoebe stopped mentioning it as if nothing had happened.
She deliberately ignored it.
However, Stanford felt even more guilty about Phoebe. He tried his best to make up for her, take care of her, and meet all her other requirements.
His feelings for her now were made up by guilt.
Stanford treated Phoebe differently from before.
Stanford always looked at Phoebe and distracted, but he couldn't figure out the reason.
From time to time, Stanford also remembered what Ernest had asked him.
"Do you love her?"
"Do you love Phoebe?"
In the past, he did not quite understand the meaning of "love", but now he was even more confused.
On this day, Phoebe had heard from the news that an underground auction house would auction off the scar-removing cream.
This ointment was very useful. No matter what kind of scar it was, as long as it was wiped on the face, it would disappear the next day and return to people's original appearance.
For Phoebe, this was the most urgent medicine.
Now she was afraid of the operation, so she was unwilling to let Collin perform the operation on her. If she had this scar-removing cream, Phoebe could easily recover her appearance.
This medicine was excellent.
However, Stanford was also surprised that Collin even couldn't make such a medicine. How could it exist?
With a dubious attitude, he took Phoebe to the underground auction house.
Although this was an underground auction house, there were many people here. The people who came were all from rich families.
This auction was held once a week, and it was said that things could be sold very well every time.
Exceptionally, there were many people tonight.
Because the last item at the auction tonight was a "good thing" that could make men crazy.
The auctioneer did not reveal exactly what kind of treasure it was, but the words "a treasure that could make men crazy" attracted a large number of curious men.
Almost all the people present were men.
Wearing a cap and a mask, Phoebe covered her face tightly, showing only her eyes.
She sat next to Stanford and whispered,
"Are you very interested in this kind of 'treasure"?"
Stanford said expressionlessly, "I'm not interested."
No matter what kind of treasure it was, he was not interested.
The only person in the world that interested him was the woman beside him.
No, actually, he liked previous her...
Thinking of this, Stanford's eyes darkened. He opened his arms and held Phoebe in his arms.
Stanford's deep voice came and he said firmly, "I only want you."
This sentence was his promise to Phoebe.
It was also like a rule he made for himself.
He had long decided to be with Phoebe. He would never change his mind.
He would always be with her.
This thought was extremely firm.
Phoebe leaned into the man's arms with a sweet smile.
"Stanford, I feel like I'm the happiest woman in the world."
Hearing that, Stanford pursed his thin lips. His gaze was deep and dark.
His mood was bad for no reason.
Since Phoebe came back, she had been particularly disgusted with the past and did not dare to face it.
She wanted to have plastic surgery and even changed the way she addressed him. She no longer called him intimately.
Perhaps Stanford had gotten used to that mischievous name. Now, he was not used to her change.
The auction soon began.
The host was experienced. Soon, the atmosphere was stirred up.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
The host tried his best to sell tonight's auction items.
Each of them sold at a good price.
But Stanford was not interested, and Phoebe didn't want anything.
They waited patiently until the scar cream was showed. Only then did Stanford get interested.
The host was good at speaking and praised well the effect of the scar cream.
Of course, some people doubted it.
"This medicine is so useful. Is it really fake? What if it's not as good as you said?"
"Don't worry: Before the auction, our auction house personally verified the effect of this scar-removing cream. I guarantee with the reputation of the auction house that it will work.
If it doesn't work, take it to the person in charge of the auction house. We'll compensate you 100 times over!"
The price of the items sold at the auction house was not low. A hundred times was a huge figure.
Although the underground auction house was illegal, it had a very good reputation in the industry because of its good reputation.
With such a promise, people almost believed it.
The scar-removing cream had an amazing effect. In addition, everyone had some scars on their bodies, or they might be injured, so there were many people who wanted the scar-removing cream.
As a result, there were many people bidding.
Soon, the price of the scar-removing cream rose to 10 million dollars.
Phoebe looked at the bottle on the stage with burning eyes. She nervously clenched her small hands and looked at the silent Stanford from time to
time.
She couldn't help saying,
"Can you buy it for me?"
Stanford pursed his thin lips, with his eyes unfathomable.
The host praised the scar-removing cream very well, but would it have such a big effect?
Stanford didn't really believe it.
However, Phoebe was a little anxious. She grabbed Stanford's hand and said with grievance,
"Stanford, can you buy it for me? I really need it."
Seeing that Phoebe was so anxious that she was about to cry, Stanford frowned slightly.
Was Phoebe begging him?
He came with her. No matter how effective the scar-removing cream was, he intended to buy it for her. But now she was so uneasy. Did she not
believe him?
In the past, Phoebe would directly pick up the bidding plate and bid.
Now, she was too unconfident.
Stanford said in a low voice, "No hurry. We can bid when the price is the highest."
They didn't have to shout with others all the time.
Phoebe finally understood Stanford's intention and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
She smiled and said, "I was too
scared. I thought you didn't believe
that the scar-removing cream's effect would be so good, so you didn't intend to buy it at a high price."
Stanford stared deeply at Phoebe.
"As I said, I will give you whatever you want."
Phoebe was stunned for a moment, and her expression changed slightly. She lowered her head and leaned into the arms of Stanford.
"Stanford, you are the best person in the world to me. I love you."
Stanford was stunned. He looked at the little head in his arms with a heavy gaze, but he felt very annoyed.
"I love you."
When he heard his Phoebe say that she liked him, his heart would beat faster, but now...
Why didn't he feel anything?☐☐☐☐☐☐
