Chapter 749 Auction
Rory had been taking care of Bounty in the ward for the past two days. Bounty was still in a coma and had still not woken up.
Annabelle came over to see Bounty. As soon as the door of the ward was opened, the two of them met. In the next second, Alpha arrived, and the situation was established.
Alpha obviously did not believe this explanation. His narrow and gloomy eyes fell on Annabelle’s face, “Why does such a coincidence always happen to you, Annabelle, why did you come to the hospital to see Bounty? Or, did you come to meet someone else?”
“Alpha, you’re unreasonable!” Annabelle replied angrily.
“Annabelle, who did you come to see? Be clear!” Alpha probed.
Rory looked at the two of them, then he said, “Guys…”
“Shut up!” Alpha interrupted him.
“Don’t say anything!” Annabelle also snapped at him.
Rory, who was yelled at by the two of them, was stunned.
Olive let out a sigh. This was probably the love between Alpha and Annabelle. Whether it was painful, pessimistic, or sad, it was all theirs, and no third party could intervene.
Olive stepped forward and said in a clear voice. “Aunty Annabelle, why are you here?”
Annabelle looked up and quickly saw Olive. She immediately tried to withdraw her arm.
Alpha still refused to loosen his grip on her.
Annabelle raised her hand to brush the hair beside her cheeks and said to Alpha in a low voice, “Let
go,
the children are here!”
She and Alpha were no longer young, and they did not want to quarrel in front of the children.
Alpha looked at her uncomfortable expression, he did not force her any further, and he let go of his big hand.
“Olive, I’m here to see Bounty.”
Olive walked over and hugged Annabelle’s arm. “Aunty Annabelle, I’m also here to see Aunty
Bounty.”
“Olive, Bounty has been in a coma for a while. When will she wake up?” Annabelle asked worriedly.
“I plan to take Aunt Bounty to Imperial City to treat her heart disease.”
Immediately Olive’s words were heard, silence instantly clouded the hallway. Imperial City was a place full of past events and memories. No one wanted to touch the deep scars in their hearts.
At this moment, Olive’s bright eyes landed on Alpha’s face, “Uncle Alpha, this trip to Imperial is not just for me, Aunt Annabelle, Aunty Bounty, Rory, and you too will come with me.”
Alpha’s expression was not good-looking. He glanced at Olive, and asked, “Why do you want to take everyone to Imperial City?”
Olive smiled, and said, “Uncle Alpha, you’ll know once we get there.”
Alpha pursed his lips, then he said without hesitation, “I won’t go, you guys can play on your own.” With that, Alpha turned around and left, leaving no room for further negotiation. Annabelle grabbed Olive and whispered, “Olive, you must have reasons for every decision you
make. I can go back to Imperial city with you, but Alpha, it would be a little difficult to convince
him.”
Olive flashed her bright eyes and smiled playfully, “I have to bring Uncle Alpha back this time. There are exceptions to everything, and there are exceptions to Uncle Alpha.”
Annabelle was curious, “What are the exceptions in Alpha’s life?”
Olive smiled and said nothing. The exception in Alpha’s life was definitely Annabelle.
Olive took Annabelle out of the hospital. Because they were heading back, they would definitely see Mrs. Samantha, so Olive and Annabelle went to the auction house to buy some antiques as gift to
Mrs. Samantha.
The moment they arrived at the auction house, Olive saw two people she knew. They were Eleanor and Franklin.
In the past two days, Eleanor and Franklin had flown directly from the slums to heaven. Today, they wore expensive clothes and jewelries.
Elvis gave them his bank card. The money in it could be swiped at will. Eleanor and Franklin had been running around for the past two days. They were thinking about how to spend money.
They had bought enough clothes and jewelry, but they had no idea that the rich would also come to the auction house to play, so they rushed to the biggest auction house to brag about their new found wealth.
They walked around proudly, as they silently informed those who cared to listen, that they were rich.
Eleanor and Franklin came to a luxurious room. The waiter brought them delicate snacks and drinks.
Franklin shouted, “Hello, who’s the owner of this auction house? Call him out, let him introduce us to some interesting things in the auction house. We want to buy them.”
Eleanor ate a piece of cake, and she couldn’t help but feel that the the auction house was really of high-quality. It was indeed top-notch. Even the cake was so delicious.
“What’s the most expensive thing here, we’ll just buy it!” Eleanor added.
The auction house was filled with high-class and successful people, so this was the first time the waiter had seen Eleanor and Franklin.
“Sir, ma’am, our boss can’t come down, despite the numbers of goods that you want to purchase.”
“What?” Franklin muttered in dissatisfaction.
“Look, we’re not short of money,” Franklin patted the bank card in his pocket.
The waiter smiled, and said, “Sorry, our boss isn’t also short of money.”
Franklin couldn’t believe his ear. He wondered who owned the auction house.
The waiter said again, “Sir, ma’am, please rest for a while. The auction will commence later. When you see something you like, you can raise a sign and bid for it. The higher bidder wins.”
With that, the waiter left.
Eleanor and Franklin mumbled in dissatisfaction. At this moment, when they looked up, they saw Olive and Annabelle.
