Chapter 72
Chapter 72 Ironic
Quincy saw that heartless woman sitting next to Owen, and it was really annoying.
Ha, he just found it very ironic.
I originally wanted her to explain why she was having dinner alone with Owen, but she actually hung up the phone. Was she afraid of being found out by her new target?
The man had a dark expression, his gaze unfriendly.
Morris was trembling on the side, wondering what on earth was going on. The boss had come to the auction in high spirits today, intending to buy the emerald he had set his eyes on, fortunately to give it to his wife as a surprise for their wedding anniversary next month.
As a result, the car flipped over too quickly.
***
The auction started quickly, with the host introducing the auctioned collectibles.
Renee was desperately focusing on the host on stage, ignoring the jerk over there. After all, they were divorced, she didn’t need to explain to him who she was with.
She hadn’t even confronted him about sending someone to follow her yet.
Suddenly, Owen beside her spoke, “Ms. Braun, help me hold the sign later.”
“Me?”
Renee held the number plate, feeling as if she was carrying a box of Renminbi.
“Yes, if I were the one to shoot, they would think this thing is very valuable and would compete with me. If you were to shoot, it would be easier.”
She looked over in surprise, “Mr. Morton is rich and arrogant, he’s also short of this little money?”
“After all, I was a businessman, I didn’t do deals that lost money.”
Owen blinked, a bit mischievous, making it hard for Renee to refuse. When she held the number plate, her mood was a bit, well, quite excited.
Today, she finally understood what it felt like to spend money like water.
But the next second, she felt a scrutinizing gaze. She looked up to meet the man’s narrow, indifferent eyes. Her expression froze for a moment, and she immediately turned her head to look straight ahead, not giving him a single glance.
Quincy squinted slightly, asking in a low voice, “What’s the next item up for auction?”
“Sir, this was the old emerald we came to photograph this time.”
Ha, a hint of mockery flashed in the man’s eyes. No wonder Renee was so eager to latch onto other men, she had brought her to buy the old emerald so quickly!
Ha, isn’t it just a broken stone? Couldn’t he afford it?
Quincy spoke without any change in his expression, “Double the funds from the finance department.”
Morris was speechless.

Boss, you needed to stay calm.
You bought it just to give it to your wife, why bother driving up the price, letting the auction house earn this money?
Jealous men often lack rationality.
Soon, it was time for the next auction item.
The host began to introduce the origin, material, and luster of the emerald, then stated the price: “Starting bid at five million!”
“Six million.”
“Seven million.”
After someone had called out two prices, Renee heard Owen’s voice in her ear: “Ten million.”
She paused for breath, raising the sign and just about to speak, when a deep voice sounded from the other side: “Ten million.”
Renee looked back, did this man do it on purpose?
Recently, the group’s main product was diamonds, why did he come to buy emeralds?
“Eleven million.”
Renee’s wrist was grabbed, and she was made to raise a sign to bid. She looked at Owen in surprise. Hadn’t he just said that the price of this stone wouldn’t exceed ten million?
How could he still offer a high price?
Owen whispered, “This is a contest between men, don’t interfere.”

The next second, Quincy spoke, “Fifteen million.”
He directly added four million, instantly igniting the auction venue, all eyes were on Quincy over there.
This was a big move.
Renee stood still, listening to the two men beside her bidding, which directly rose to twenty million.
The host was completely stunned, he had not anticipated this scene at all.
Quincy bid twenty million, then looked up, his gaze calm and deep, making it impossible to read his emotions. Yet, Renee could sense it, he was serious.
The Owen beside her spoke up, “Ms. Braun, do you think it’s still necessary to make him bleed?”
“Forget it.”
Renee also realized later that Owen had deliberately bid up the price with the sleazy man, then let him be the sucker to buy the jade at a high price.
Owen didn’t speak, but lifted his hand to tidy the stray hairs by her ear. From a distance, their actions seemed quite intimate.
Quincy watched the scene impassively, snapping the number tag in his hand.
At that moment, the auctioneer excitedly hammered down, “Twenty million for the third time, sold!”
Applause erupted from below the stage, and admiring glances were cast in succession.
However, Quincy himself had a cold expression, showing no signs of joy. Not long after, the auction ended. He watched as Renee left the auction

site with Owen.
The man’s expression was inscrutable, sitting motionless in the chair, his profile still incredibly handsome.
Soon, a lady couldn’t help but step forward: “Mr. Patel, I…”
“Get out!”
Without lifting his head, Quincy coldly threw out this word.
Morris stepped forward bravely, holding the auction list in his hand, “Sir, I need your signature.”
Oh God, kill him.
This was too difficult.
I really wished to vanish from the face of the earth!
