Chapter 51 Throwing Her Necklace Away
Although this necklace was important, it was worth far less than 11.2 million dollars.
Alexa clenched her hands. She wasn’t expecting this at all.
As soon as Kieran bid, Terrence bid again without hesitation.
“20 million dollars.”
“Terrence…”
Brynlee turned around in shock. Jealousy washed over her.
In the beginning, Brynlee only wanted to take things that Alexa cherished away from her, but
Brynlee didn’t expect this piece of trash to reach such a high price.
That was fucking 20 million dollars!
Terrence actually said it out without blinking!
“Mr. Powell, forget it,” Alexa said nervously. “This necklace is not worth this much.”
Kieran smiled and said gently, “Money is only paper, but things that are worth protecting are priceless.”
Alexa was stunned, and Kieran bid a higher price.
“25 million dollars.”
The coldness on Terrence’s face grew thicker, and he wished he could drag that hateful woman over
and teach her to be grateful.
She indeed got something. She actually was able to persuade the young master of the Powell family
to help her.
But what of it?
The more Alexa cherished something, the more he wanted to take it away and then destroy it to her
face!
Terrence gritted his teeth, and the hostility around him gradually increased.
“38 million dollars.”
The price got increasingly ridiculous, and the hall became quieter and quieter.
From beginning to end, no one dared to join the battle.
In the public’s eyes, the Ramsey family and the Powell family were old friends. And they had been
helping and supporting each other to get where they were now.
However, what Terrence and Kieran were doing right now was not what friends would do.
Although they sounded calm, everyone could feel the tension in the air.
Terrence would not give up, and Kieran also would not take a step back.
Brynlee was frightened by Terrence’s look and put her hand on his arm, feeling both jealous and scared.
“Terrence, forget it,” Brynlee said weakly. “Actually, I don’t really want this necklace.”
“Why not?” Terrence said with a cold smile.
“56 million dollars.”
Kieran behind him continued to bid. Terrence felt he was losing control of his emotions and even
his cruelty.
Alexa, you are so arrogant and ungrateful
He gave Alexa all the valuable things, but Alexa did not even look at them. And she turned to
someone else.
“165 million dollars.”
It instantly caused an uproar.
No one expected this to happen.
Was this about a woman?
People spontaneously turned to look at Alexa, who was beside Kieran, with either surprise or
disdain in their eyes.
This woman was only moderately pretty. Was she Kieran’s new girlfriend?
“165 million dollars first!”
“165 million dollars second!”
Kieran turned to look at Alexa, whose expression was surprisingly calm. And Alexa nodded at him
very gratefully
“Mr. Powell, thank you.”
“165 million dollars third!” the host said emotionally. “Mr. Terrence has got this unique emerald
necklace for a price of 165 million dollars!”
The audience broke into loud applause Although Brynlee was very unhappy, she nodded at people
very proudly
Terrence actually spent 165 million dollars to get this necklace for her.
Alexa, you’re no match for me.
Brynlee’s heart was filled with complacency. But Terrence looked emotionless, and the coldness on his face didn’t clear at all.
“Terrence, what’s wrong?” Brynlee forced a smile. “Are you unhappy?”
“I have something to do. I have to go now.”
After saying this, Terrence got up without hesitation and went after Alexa.
Outside the door, Alexa slowly stopped.
“Mr. Powell, thank you for what you said just now.” Alexa smiled in relief. “If my mother heard it, she would be very happy.”
“I’m sorry,” Kieran said apologetically. “I hope what I did just now didn’t bother you.”
“It didn’t.” Alexa immediately shook her head. “Anyway, thank you very much.”
“Do you need me to send you back?”
As soon as Kieran finished, Alexa saw Terrence slowly appear at the door.
Was Terrence here to settle accounts with her?
Alexa didn’t want to get Kieran into trouble.
“Mr. Powell, don’t mind me. I will wait for the driver to pick me up.”
“Okay.” Kieran nodded. “See you then.”
After Kieran’s car left, Alexa turned back, and Terrence happened to have walked up to her.
With a long face, Terrence stood near her and said sarcastically.
“Kieran can’t buy you that necklace and can’t even send you home?”
“Don’t take it wrong.”
“Alexa, is that all you can say?” Terrence tilted his head and looked at her expression with cold eyes. “Do you think you can get away with everything with that sentence?”
“165 million dollars. Mr Ramsey is so generous.”
“So what? It is not for you.”
“Terrence, do you know that is my mother’s necklace?” Alexa said weakly and clenched her hands
nervously.
“Do you want me to give it to you?” Terrence chuckled. “Alexa, are you crazy? I’ve paid a lot for it.”
“Yes, I know,” Alexa said softly. “So did you give it to Brynlee?”
“That’s mine. It’s none of your business how I will deal with it.”
“Please give the necklace back to me. And I’ll pay for it no matter how much it costs.”
Before Alexa could finish, Terrence could not help but sneer and interrupt her.
“Alexa, do you think you are worth 165 million dollars? How are you going to get the money? Who
the hell do you think you are?”
Alexa bit her lower lip and stood there with a pale face as if she would fall any minute.
Terrence’s pupils shrank as he looked at her red-rimmed eyes as if he was looking at a delicate and fragile piece of art.
“I’ve thrown it away.” Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
“Thrown it away?”
Alexa murmured these words and looked up at him in disbelief.
Tears came out of her dry eyes. Alexa kept wiping them off, but in the end, she broke down.
Terrence had just thrown away the only thing her mother had left behind.
Terrence looked coldly at her actions and was not moved at all.
“Go home,” Terrence ordered indifferently before he raised his head and walked away.
After walking some distance, Terrence turned around impatiently.
As expected, Alexa was still standing there and getting farther and farther away from him.
“Alexa, are you deaf?”
Alexa wiped her face gracelessly and then walked in another direction.
“Where are you going?”
“None of your business,” Alexa growled in a low voice.
Terrence’s body tensed up, and he walked toward Alexa in anger.
Alexa subconsciously ducked aside. But Terrence did not say anything more to her. He simply bent
over and lifted her into his arms.
