Chapter 665 – Embarrassing her in front of the public
“It’s been a long time!” Nydia smiled and nodded her head.
After a brief greeting, she turned back, after all, it wasn’t comfortable to keep craning her neck.
She looked at Jesse with a puzzled look, it was too much of a coincidence how Sara happened to be sitting behind them.
Jesse shook his head, he was not quite sure what the seating arrangement was in accordance with, but it should not be a coincidence.
Now that Sara is sitting behind them, they have no way to communicate, otherwise it would be easy for Sara to hear them.
Not long after, Vincent came over and sat down beside them.
“It’s good that we made it in time, otherwise it would be too embarrassing to be late.”
“So many people have come, elites from all walks of life are here.” Vincent saw Sara sitting in the back row, “Dr. Duncan.”
“Dr. Wallaker.”
One is a surgeon, one is a psychologist, different fields, but both sides are famous, naturally they know each other, plus before Jesse’s mental illness are Sara is treating, two people are familiar with each other.
“How much money did you bring? We’re definitely going to get wool pulled over our eyes today.” Jesse spoke in a low voice to Vincent.
“I … don’t have to pull my wool over my eyes, I’m a poor man compared to you big bosses, okay? I just came over to get a laugh.”
He looked around, “Today’s big bosses can be a lot of ah, tonight no a 10 billion volume to say it.”
“That’s easy for you to say!”
Ten billion in volume means a hundred bosses would have to pay a hundred million each, which is not realistic.
In Jesse’s opinion, about 20 to 30 million is about right.
While we were talking, Vultuulf and her mother, Jesse’s aunt, arrived, and they were on the invitation list.
“Hello Dr. Wallaker, remember me?” Vultuulf, a lively and cheerful girl, greeted Vincent with enthusiasm.
“I remember.” Vincent said with a smile.
Nydia’s position was already next to Vultuulf, and it was easy to talk, “Vultuulf, we are betting to see how much the auction will be sold at tonight, and whoever loses buys a nightcap.”
“I’m guessing two hundred and ninety million.” Vultuulf was the first to say.
“I think it’s 2. 2 billion.” Nydia’s thoughts.
Jesse thought it should be around three billion four hundred million.
Only Vincent felt that they had a small frame, “I think it has to be at least four hundred and eighty million.”
“Then this way, whoever is the least close to the final amount is buying, okay?”
“Okay, no problem.”
Sibley didn’t come because of something today, but there were still a lot of people on the scene who knew each other, and they were all familiar faces.
Like the Wagners family, the Neil’s, the Zane’s, the Albi’s, and actually saw Jasper.
Jasper was looking around when he met Jesse’s eyes and was so scared that he immediately turned his head to look away, never again while daring to turn around.
“What exactly did you do to Jasper? Make him so afraid of you?” Nydia thought it was more frightening than a mouse seeing a cat.
Jesse shook his head, “I didn’t do anything.”
“But there are many people who are afraid of me, and you are the only one who is not afraid of me and always teasing me.”
Nydia wanted to make a face, but at this time she was wearing delicate makeup, thought better of it.
The image of her own reborn back to tease him, now think how much is a bit shameful, and at that time, Jesse pure can not, not moving, blushing ears red, but now is simply an old sex embryo!
Not at all as cute as it was before!
The evening began with a singing, dancing and singing performance.
The stars that can appear tonight are more or less a little weighty, or recently very hot, as a guarantee of curiosity.
Ebenezer and Dominik sang the theme song of the web series, male and female duet, evoking the memories of many people who have seen the web series.
Oswald, on the other hand, presented their work with his own team members, and the atmosphere was great as there were many fans sitting on the stage, screaming for them.
After the opening performance, the organizer came on stage to speak, all very official words, nothing more than to thank everyone for coming today, but also on behalf of the Foundation to thank everyone for their generosity next, probably means one: spend your money later!
The auction has begun.
There were a lot of good things on the auction stage, one of the famous painting has been shot to a price of 20 million.
“Jesse, Nydia, are you two not interested in this painting?” Sara’s voice rang out.
“I don’t have much appreciation for paintings, so I won’t get involved in raising the price, let the person who likes it get it.” Nydia smiled, “Dr. Duncan can compete if he’s interested.”
Sara sighed, “This has been bid up to twenty million, I can’t afford it, if it was over two million I could still bite the bullet.”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“There’s no way for me as a doctor to compare with you guys.”
“…” There is no way to compare with us then don’t talk to us! The tea is very!
Nydia did not continue to talk to her, she felt that Sara this person, sometimes green tea, sometimes white lotus flower, and sometimes like a rose with thorns, many changes, let people can not understand her mind.
The next auction is an antique vase, extremely delicate, a look is worth a lot of money.
The host first praised this vase, and then a professional introduced this vase, which has a market value of about twelve million.
“When I see this vase I think of a person, as exquisite as this vase, and permeated with solitude.”
“Do you know who the person I am talking about is?”
A vase? Says who?
And a person should not be too happy to be compared like a vase, right?
Someone in the crowd shouted, “This vase is so beautiful, it has to be heavenly to resemble it, and it has to be fragile and soft, so who is the host talking about? Let’s have an appreciation.”
“Don’t you think Mr. Pascall’s wife, Ms Nydia, looks like this vase? Delicate, soft, lonely, fragile, yet with its own value!”
The faces of Jesse and Nydia suddenly appeared on the big screen, and Nydia looked bewildered.
Shit!
Who bought this promotion for her? It’s purely to blacken her!
Then other pictures of her appeared on the screen, with different styles and temperaments, looking very beautiful indeed.
The eyes of the crowd fell on her, which made her incredibly embarrassed.
Jesse reached out and took her hand, smiled at her and calmed her down who wanted to curse.
Someone came over and handed the microphone to Nydia.
“Ms Nydia, what do you think?”
“Does it even matter what I think?” Nydia coldly asked in return, “If I lose my temper with you and say that you are messing around with metaphors, and you say that your wording is all good and that I am the one who can’t afford to play, if I accept the metaphor, won’t I just admit in public that I am a vase and have to be auctioned off? You, the host, are not very good at professional skills, but you are very good at provoking things!”
Her direct dislike made the host on stage look embarrassed, and he didn’t know how to respond for a while.
Because her words blocked all his possible responses.
But he quickly apologized, “I’m sorry Ms Nydia, I offended you, I shouldn’t have used such a metaphor, it was my self-righteous humor that hurt you, except that I truly recognize your beauty and wisdom.”
“Is it enough for you to make a casual joke and then apologize? If I don’t take a picture of this vase tonight, then whoever sees this vase in the future will think of me, and how will you compensate for my spiritual damage?”
