Chapter 23
The staff moved quickly, took the bracelet during the break, and stood aside waiting for Madeleine to write a check.
Everyone stated which company they were from at the auction. If they tried to leave without paying, they would be sued by the auction house.
Madeleine could only sign the check with her hands shaking.
At the back of meet such an idiot today.”
e auction house, Dillan smiled and said, “I’m so lucky to
The bracelet was only worth 60 thousand dollars at most. When the jeweler deceived Dillan into spending an extra 40 thousand dollars to buy it for his mother, Dillan didn’t expect his mother to dislike it, so he took it to the auction.
But now, he fixed his eyes on the beautiful woman, Gilda.
Everyone loved beauty, not to mention such an intriguing beauty.
Dillan’s curiosity was triggered by Gilda.
“Why do I think she looks familiar? Who is it?” Dillan asked the boss of HB Corporation next to him.
“I heard her name is Gilda.”
“Gilda?” “Dillan repeated the name, and the daughter of the Lynch family, whose face was full of acne, flashed into his mind. He immediately got goosebumps all over.
He inadvertently thought, ‘No way… It shouldn’t be!”
Dillan rubbed his eyes and looked at Gilda’s beautiful side face again. He was quite sure. “It’s definitely not the same person. It’s just the same name.”
The next item was brought onto the stage.
The auctioneer said, “Antique pocket watch. The starting price is 1 million dollars!”
Seeing that the pocket watch was the one Patrick ordered, Gilda raised her hand and bid for it. “1.2 million dollars!”
“1.3 million dollars!” said someone.
Without Madeleine’s interference, the auction went very smoothly. Gilda finally won the pocket watch with 1.4 million dollars.
Madeleine was depressed, angry, and resentful, but she didn’t dare to bid against Gilda anymore for fear that Gilda would use that trick again.
She really didn’t have enough money in her account.

Her voice was still gentle. Jensen, we haven’t seen Ms. Lynch for days, and she is impressive now

“When she divorced you, she didn’t take any money from you. How could she be so generous and buy an expensive pocket watch without hesitation?”
Madeleine noticed Jensen’s expression as she said, “She became the assistant to the CEO of the Glory Corporation. That is a high–level position with shares and power second only to those of the CEO.
“I heard that Mr. Lynch gave her all the important projects and let her handle them as she sees fit. Just like the job she did for you…
When Jensen heard this, his face was gloomy. He frowned and felt annoyed.
He wondered, Just like the job she did for me?
Is Gilda also going to marry Patrick?”
Madeleine wanted to continue but was interrupted by Jensen in a cold voice. “Is there anything else you want to see? If not, let’s go.”
Seeing that Jensen was already angry, Madeleine immediately pretended to be innocent. “I talked too much. Jensen, don’t be angry.”
Jensen said, “It’s okay. Let’s go now.”
The Glory Corporation was the majority shareholder of Christie’s auction. There was no need to pay for the auction items separately, so Gilda was invited to a separate lounge to confirm the auction items.
After signing the confirmation form, the staff put down the pocket watch and left to let Gilda rest for a while.
Gilda put the watch into the box and saw Jensen coming in when she looked up.
She said coldly, “What are you doing here?”
Jensen stood by the door with gloomy eyes. He asked questioningly, “What is the relationship between you. and Patrick?”
He asked Madeleine to wait in the car now, and he went here with the excuse of going to the bathroom just so that he could know the answer from Gilda.
