Ren Jifeng also bid, “$1.5 million.”
Ashley bid, “$1.8 million.”
Tanya,
without
without looking, bid,“$2.5 million. She’d drastically increased the bid
Ashley’s heart continued to sink. She didn’t have much money. Her initial budget was $3 million; the Rong family’s business wasn’t doing well, and they didn’t have much to spare. But now…
Ren Jifeng:“$2.8 million.”
Ashley:“$3 million.”
Her bids were clear, soft, and beautiful. Ren Jifeng looked over, pausing before smiling. Ashley nodded politely.
Tanya bid, “$4 million.” Ashley ignored Ren Jifeng.
Ren Jifeng:“$4.3 million.”
Ashley:“$4.5 million.”
Tanya:“$5 million.”
Ashley’s mind went blank. Her budget was $3 million, but when Tanya started bidding, she’d silently increased it to $5 million. She could afford more; she’d just been given a villa worth two or three million. But the embroidery wasn’t worth $5 million. She could spend it, but… she couldn’t afford to be impulsive. She could use that money for more meaningful things.
She lowered her paddle.
Cindy:“Why don’t you contact Chase?”
Ashley had considered it. Would he make Tanya stop for her? No. Despite knowing it was pointless, she called Chase.
