Chapter 548


    “Exactly, Mr. Olson’s loaded, this amount of money is nothing to him, right?”


    But at this moment, Keira said, “Every penny is hard–earned, Lance, you don’t need to splurge on


    me, money should be spent where it’s needed.


    Listening to Keira’s kind and understanding words, Lance felt warmth in his heart, “To me, every


    penny spent on you is worth it.”


    “Oh boy, I’m drowning in your sweet nothings!”


    Everyone chuckled, and both Serene and Keira looked over at Chloe. Their challenging, smug, and


    show–off nces were

    overwhelming.


    Chloe scoffed, her heart filled with a sense of helplessness and sarcasm.


    However, after the auctioneer asked for the third time, the always silent Damon slowly raised his


    paddle, his expression indifferent.


    “Two million.”


    Keira and Lance looked at each other, their faces suddenly changed, and they both turned to look


    at Damon.


    However, Damon didn’t even nce at them. He was sitting there, dignified and elegant, like a


    gentleman.


    Chloe turned her head in surprise to look at Damon, and Jete excitedly shifted in her seat,


    watching the scene unfold with great


    pleasure.


    Chloe looked at Damon’s side profile, smiled slightly, and also slowly raised her paddle.


    Everyone looked at Chloe in surprise, thinking this guy’s got balls, daring topete with the


    people from the Harper Group? Even Damon nced at Chloe.


    Chloe raised her paddle, looking at the auctioneer, and said with a smile. “Two million and one!”


    As soon as Chloe’s words fell, the entire audience was stunned! Two million and one? What a weird


    bid! Even the auctioneer was stunned for a while, he had never encountered such a bidding method


    in his career.


    Chloe turned to look at Damon, her eyes sparkling with a hint of mischief. A chill shed in Damon’s


    eyes as he looked at her, the corne of his mouth slightly raised.


    He looked down at her hand, smiled slightly, and wrapped Chloe’s hand in his. Chloe was surprised


    again, instinctively wanting to avoid him, but Damon’s hand was tightly holding her, making her


    unable to move. She looked around and realized no one noticed this, so she didn’t struggle


    anymore, quietly leaving her hand in his palm.


    Although the audience at the back couldn’t see their subtle moves, the auctioneer at the front was


    stunned. His eyes lingered on their tightly held hands for a while, then he looked back and forth in


    shock between Chloe and Damon’s faces.


    Finally, he looked at Damon’s seemingly indifferent but warning gaze, he swallowed hard, forcing


    himself to refocus on his work.
