Chapter 89


    89. Very Enthusiastic


    Trantor: Mr Magnate


    “Is he crazy? One hundred million for one ne?” Amanda was dumbstruck.


    “What’s the big deal about one hundred million? My darling can afford that as well,” Luna scoffed as


    she raised her bidding paddle again.


    “Put it down… “ Simon swiftly pulled her hand down and said, “Are you trying to ruin Hector?”


    “Dad, what are you doing… “


    “Listen to your dad. Don’t do anything stupid,” Amanda reprimanded.


    Even though Luna was outraged, she had no choice but to ept her fate.


    “One hundred million going once, one hundred million going twice… “


    “Are you mad? You’re paying one hundred million for one ne?” Charlotte lowered her voice,


    hardly able to calm down. “Don’t you find it a waste of money?”


    “Money is just a number.” The man remained unmoved.


    “But… “


    “And the ruby ne is sold at one hundred million!” The emcee banged the lectern to end the


    bidding.


    A concierge dressed in an evening gown delivered the ruby ne cautiously from the stage to


    Zachary.


    The man took over the ne and handed it to Charlotte at once. “This is for you!”


    She was shocked. He purchased the ruby ne at one hundred million, and he’s giving it to me?


    Is he sure about this?


    There was an uproar among the guests. Most of them were engaged in hushed discussions with their


    families, trying to figure out Charlotte’s identity. They were wondering which rich or influential family the


    woman was from to be chosen by Zachary.


    Most of the guests present did not know who she was, except for three of them.


    Those three people did not dare to make a sound while they turned to look at Amanda, who shot them


    a look, beckoning them to expose Charlotte’s real identity.


    Two of the three guests were hesitant to do that. The other woman was Mary, the wife of Thomas, a


    distant rtive of the Windt family.


    Previously, Thomas had tried to lecture Charlotte at the Whites’ residences but had been retaliated by


    the woman. Thomas and Mary still had not gotten over it yet.


    When Thomas saw Charlotte entering the auction hall earlier that night, he cursed a little under his


    breath before finding an excuse to smoke backstage.


    As such, Mary was left alone in her seat. Initially, she was not keen to stir up any trouble, but Amanda


    rang her cell and kept repeating what had happened at the Whites’ residences that day. All the while


    emphasizing how Charlotte had disrespected them.


    In addition, Amanda had also said, “Mr. Nacht is still kept in the dark. He’spletely oblivious to the


    kind of woman Charlotte is. I’m sure Mr. Nacht will be very appreciative of whoever exposes her now…


    “


    With that thought in mind, Mary stood up and started walking towards the front row…


    Amanda knew that her ploy had seeded when she saw the woman approaching Zachary. The


    corners of her lips curled up into a smug sneer.


    “Mom, what’s Mary doing?” Luna tugged at Amanda’s sleeves and asked, “Is she intending to… “


    “Shh!” Amanda immediately covered her daughter’s mouth with her hands to stop her from talking. She


    gritted her teeth and growled, “Shut your mouth!”


    “Mm, Mm!” Luna nodded continuously, unable to hide the excitement in her eyes.


    “What are you two plotting again?” A crease appeared between Simon’s brows.


    Hector had also noticed the mother-daughter pair behaving strangely but chose not to ask anything. He


    just wanted to look at Charlotte quietly.


    The woman was currently at the center of everyone’s attention, looking just like a shining star.


    It was the dream of countless heiresses to win the favor of Zachary, to marry into the Nacht family and


    be his woman!

    No doubt, that was the greatest aplishment of Charlotte’s life…


    Media was usually not invited to any of Zachary’s functions – there was usually a rule to ban the


    distribution of any photos taken. If that were not the case, that night’s event would have definitely been


    the hottest topic in town.


    Charlotte’s mind was in a state of chaos as she stared at the ruby ne that was worth one


    hundred million.


    She kept crossing and uncrossing her arms in front of her chest, and her breathing became quick and


    uneasy, apanied by an increase in her heart rate…


    “Do you want it or not?” Zachary frowned, looking impatient. “I’m going to throw it away if you’re not


    taking it!”


    As the man spoke, he pretended as though he was about to toss the ruby ne away…


    “I want it! I want it!”


    She snatched the ne from him anxiously, and due to her state of panic, she lost her bnce and


    fell into his arms.


    He smiled and whispered into her ears in an intimate manner, “I like that you’re behaving so


    enthusiastically.”


    “I… I didn’t fall on purpose… “


    She turned red from her cheeks to the tip of her ears as she spoke, but her voice was drowned out by


    the round of apuse which erupted from the guests.
