Chapter 338: Chapter 338: Face-Slapping, Pursuing True Love
Sharon Langley lowered her head in thought, and finally raised her head resolutely.
"Alright, Ivy, I’m willing to give it a try."
At the Celestian auction at this moment.
Ivy Kensington and Sharon Langley slipped in as the auction had already started.
Isaac Eastwood and the Chambers heiress were seated just a row ahead of them.
"Mr. Eastwood, I heard you’re preparing to shoot a new film. What genre is it?"
Renee Chambers looked at Isaac Eastwood with admiration.
Isaac Eastwood wasn’t someone who amazed at first glance; he was the type whose looks grew on you over time, and besides that, he was quite capable.
Although he didn’t inherit the family business, the films he made often won awards, gaining him great renown.
Renee Chambers was very satisfied with Isaac Eastwood.
Isaac Eastwood’s face remained indifferent as he simply said, "It’s an industry secret; can’t be revealed."
"Alright then."
Renee Chambers had to withdraw her gaze.
Just then, a pair of Ming Dynasty jade pearl earrings appeared on the auction stage, and Renee Chambers felt a pang in her heart; she immediately raised a paddle: "One million."
Sharon Langley’s voice immediately rang out: "One million one hundred thousand."
She raised a paddle, but her gaze fell on Isaac Eastwood.
In fact, she didn’t truly like the earrings; she just wanted to test Isaac Eastwood’s attitude. If he ultimately bid and won them for Renee Chambers, it would mean he truly intended to marry her. If not...
Sharon thought she would be brave for once.
Renee Chambers turned her head and saw Sharon Langley, knowing she was Isaac Eastwood’s once defiled former fiancée.
With a glance of disdain, Renee Chambers raised her paddle again: "One million two hundred thousand."
Sharon Langley chased right after: "One million three hundred thousand."
After several rounds, the price of the pearl earrings was raised to five million.
Renee Chambers coquettishly said to Isaac Eastwood, "Az, I really like this. Could you bid and gift it to me?"
After speaking, she glanced disdainfully in Sharon Langley’s direction.
Hmph, I can’t be bothered to compete; Az will help me.
Isaac Eastwood seemed persuaded by Renee Chambers and raised a paddle, bringing the price directly to eight million.
Eight million...
Sharon Langley’s gaze dimmed; she actually could place another bid since she wasn’t short on money, but she didn’t want to compete with Isaac Eastwood since he was buying it for Renee Chambers. Winning it wouldn’t make sense.
"Ivy, let’s go."
Sharon Langley softly spoke to Ivy Kensington, realizing some people were just missed opportunities.
Renee Chambers watched Sharon Langley’s crestfallen back as she stood to leave, a smug smile curling up her lips.
An already defiled harlot, trying to marry—just saying it out loud is a disgrace!
The jade pearl earrings were sent down, and Renee Chambers intentionally raised her voice: "Az, thank you for bidding this gift for me; I really like it."
Sharon Langley’s calm departing figure couldn’t help but pause.
With reddened eyes, indeed, it was simply wishful thinking...
Ivy Kensington also felt discomfort; this Isaac Eastwood was truly adept at pretending—worthy of making films. He used to act so affectionate toward Sharon Langley, but now it seemed he was just like that scoundrel Sebastian Blackwood!
"Sharon, don’t bother about them."
Ivy Kensington pulled Sharon Langley, eager to quickly leave this place.
But then—
"Sharon, you don’t want these pearl earrings anymore?"
Not far away, Isaac Eastwood was holding the pair of earrings, his deep gaze piercing through the crowd looking at Sharon Langley.
Standing beside him was Renee Chambers, awkwardly reaching out her hand!
