My Substitute Wife Is a Bigwig (Lily Brooks and Loid Laurier)

Chapter 221 

Jeanne and Lily kept bidding up the price. 

The current bid was eight million dollars. 

“Ten million dollars!” Joanne was a little frustrated, so she swiftly offered an additional two million dollars. 

Meanwhile, Lily tilted her head and smiled playfully at her. “Ten million dollars? Forget it, that’s too expensive. Tcan’t afford it! 

Then, Joanne frowned and was about to respond when the auctioneer suddenly struck the gavel and declared, “Ten million dollars! Going once, going twice, sold! Congratulations, the earrings have been sold!” 

Joanne could only stare at Lily angrily. “Did you do it on purpose?” 

In the meantime, Lily raised her head calmly. “Weren’t you trying to snatch it away from me on purpose anyway? 

“You” Joanne’s face turned pale and she chatched her chest. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Once the auctioneer passed the earrings to Joanne, everyone else returned to their senses. All of them had interesting reactions. 

“This is definitely the most expensive earrings this year.” 

“It was a fierce battle between the two women.” 

“Have they gone mad?” 

It was foolish to spend ten million dollars on a pair of earrings. 

After that, the auction continued. 

The second item was a curated landscape painting from the Levensons that was sold for 500 grand. 

The third item was a blade of grass. 

A commotion erupted once it was presented to everyone. The people in the box sears also walked out to see it. After staring at that blade of grass, they silently returned to their box 

Meanwhile, in Box No. 2, Augustus stroked his beard and contemplated deeply. 

Jaiden didn’t disturb him and drank his tea instead. After a brief pause, he asked, “What is it, Mr. Jaggemast Senior? Is that Redushil?” 

“It should be Redushil Augustus thought about its appearance and said, “its root looks exactly like a Redushil’s, and the shape of its leat is very similar as well.” 

Then, Finley Castor asked doubtfully, “Will the Weisses really auction off the real Redushill at this moment? 

Augustus hesitated for a while. “Perhaps the Weisses want to catch us off–guard. Layton knows that all of us wouldn’t believe that he’d auction off the real Redushil first, so he’s doing it at the beginning” 

Jaiden nodded. “You’re right, Mr. Jagermaur Senior.” 

“However, we should be careful. Let’s observe the other families first. If we can recognize the Redshil, the other families have probably taken note of it too. If all of them bid for it, we should do so too,” Augustus replied. 

“We’ll do as you say, Mr. Jaggernaut Senior.” After sipping his tea, Jaiden walked out of the box. 

He turned to look at Box No. 1 and narrowed his eyes. 

At the same time, in Box No. 1, Lily was playing a game on her phone. When she heard the auctioneer’s words, she glanced at the blade of grass in the hall briefly. After that, she lowered her gaze and continued playing her game. 

On the other hand, Shaun was anxious. He asked, “Lily, is that Redushil? If it really is Redushil, we must bid for it.” 

“Nope, it isn’t,” Lily replied indifferently. 

Shaun paused. “Are you certain about that?” 

In the meantime, Loid was calmly watching Lily play her game. He even gave her some advice. 

“That’s Yollowall. It looks very similar to Redushil and is quite useful. If it’s made into a pill, it can extend a person’s lifespan by three years!” Lily replied unhurriedly. 

Shaun and Daniel were stunned. “Three years?” 

Meanwhile, Lold was also a little surprised. He looked at the Yollowall thoughtfully.
