Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason)
Chapter 152

Chapter 152 How Will Mr. Koen Reward Me?

When the fourth auction item came out, all the ladies gasped. No one would dislike diamonds, especially since this one was a purple diamond.

No one among the ladies present would not know the value of colored diamonds. The largest known purple diamond in the world was 7 carats, and this one was 6.5 carats. Kaliyah looked at it with bright eyes. Kaitlin's eyes also straightened, and she shook Cason's arm back and forth. "Brother, this diamond is so beautiful. You should get it for

me."

Kaliyah pinched the corner of her skirt and pursed her lips.

Irene, who sat in the front row, also saw this necklace, and she excitedly said to Manuel, "Manuel, this necklace will look good on me, right?"

He thought of the pink diamonds he bought at the last auction. The purple diamond shown today was from the same designer as the pink diamond, and both were very famous pieces.

He nodded as he agreed.

Ainsley touched her neck, and luckily she didn't bring the necklace Manuel gave her.

"This necklace is an extremely rare purple diamond necklace, and the starting price is

two million."

Matteo held up the sign, "Four million."

Ainsley looked up at Matteo, but he said, "A gift for you."

Immediately afterward, Cason held up a sign, "Five million."

The next second, Irene held up the sign, "Eight million!"

A blue diamond from a top jewelry designer sold for a high price of twelve million for

only five carats, so this was not expensive.

The corner of Matteo's mouth rose slightly, "Ten million!"

The price had been increased by six million from four million to ten million, which had

reached the limit of the value of the purple diamond. If anyone continued to increase, it

would be a loss.

But for someone like Irene, the price was never her consideration, so she directly raised the sign, "Twelve million."

"Twelve million? Miss Wade is really bold. The two million was thrown down abruptly."

"The wealth of the Wade family is enough for her to squander. She has just returned. Of course, Mr. Cody Wade will dote on her vigorously. Besides, there is Mr. Gage." "These two are childhood sweethearts and grew up together."

Kaitlin looked at Cason anxiously, and even Kaliyah secretly smacked her lips. The current assets of the Baldry family could not withstand such a big squandering. It was fine before. After the suppression of the Gage family last time, it was impossible for the Baldry family to act the same as before.

Kaitlin pestered Cason for a while, seeing him not plan to give in, so she had to let go.

Matteo still wanted to hold up the sign, but Ainsley tugged at his cuff and whispered, "Matteo, give it to her."

She could see that Irene really wanted it, and Manuel really didn't care.

It was just that she didn't know if he still remembered the feeling of giving her the pink diamond that day at the auction.

The mood of eagerly wanting to gift someone, including those two bracelets.

She watched Irene take the purple diamond with stinging eyes. The person who gave her the pink diamond was no longer there, and he was with the person who took the purple

diamond.

Cason was sitting in the row behind Ainsley. He looked through the crowd and saw her staring in the direction of Manuel in a daze.

Ainsley was no longer in the mood to pay attention to the following auction items. She only knew that her cousin bought a brooch for her in the end, which was an antique worn by a royal princess in the 17th century. It was noble and gorgeous, but she always. felt it was not hers. Maybe it was suitable for the stunning Irene, who stood beside

Manuel and talked well with many people.

The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't sit still, so she handed the sign in her hand to Matteo, patted Serina's hand, and said softly, "Serina, wait for me here for a while. I'm going to the washroom."

She went to the washroom and used ice-cold water to bring back a shred of reason. No matter what she told herself subconsciously, she still couldn't forget the scene of Manuel and Irene talking and laughing. Her eyes were full of jealousy.

Why were men always like this? Cason was, and so was Manuel.

After leaving the washroom, she leaned against the wall next to the gate of the auction venue, not wanting to go in.

As long as she sat down, she could see how intimate Irene was with him.

"Why don't you go in?" Cason suddenly appeared.

Ainsley never expected to meet him, so she smiled wryly, "Catch some fresh air."

"What's the matter with Manuel?" He still couldn't hold back.

She shook her head, "Exactly what it looks like."

Even Cason saw something was wrong, let alone Kaliyah and Kaitlin.

"Did you two break up?" Cason asked again.

She looked at him confused and said, "Mr. Baldry, this has nothing to do with you, right? Your wife should be inside, and it's not good for her to see us together. I don't want to hear any rumor again."

Cason was a little angry and ashamed. Then, he gave her the handkerchief, "I know you are very sad. Even if we divorced, we could still be friends, so call me if you need me."

She pushed back the handkerchief and said coldly, "I don't think I will ever need

you."

After she finished speaking, she turned and walked into the auction venue.

Cason looked at her back and sighed for a while. He couldn't tell what mood he was in.

He always felt a little dazed and couldn't help caring, even though he knew that he no

longer had any identity to say such things. Thinking Kaliyah was also here, he immediately walked into the venue.

When he left, a person walked out of the washroom door. Kaliyah looked at his disappearing back with red eyes. After all, he couldn't forget Ainsley, so he couldn't say goodbye to her completely.

She understood that Cason didn't love her as much as before. Even though they had been married for three years, he still came to pick her up immediately on the day she came back, but now she couldn't see this selfless enthusiasm.

She picked up her phone, looked at the photos she had just secretly taken, and sent them anonymously to someone.

At the end of the auction, the last three items were the most valuable.

The antepenultimate collection was a work of a calligraphy master. The works of this master had sold for nearly twenty million. This time, Cason and Irene were the ones who snatched up this work.

"Manuel, Mr. Koen likes this work the most, so I must get it."

Many people came here for this painting. The starting price was ten million, and it reached sixteen million in just a few minutes, but the price did not stop and continued to

rise.

When Zenith Enterprise bid eighteen million, Irene directly raised the price to twenty

million.

Cason gave up, the price was no longer what he could afford, and now it was the magnates' fight.

Obviously, Irene didn't care about the price, and she still bid calmly.

When the price reached forty million, the audience was finally quiet. No one dared to raise the sign anymore. She looked around calmly, and no one even dared to look at her. In the end, this work went to Irene, and she looked at Manuel happily, "Manuel, how will

Mr. Koen reward me?"

Manuel said seriously, "I don't know."
