The Breaking Point of Love or The Zillionaire’s Abandoned Wife Chapter 700
The auction began soon after.
Recently, the Lockets and Shaws had become much more financially stable. So once the auction started, they secured four items in a row, spending around 20 million dollars total.
Their spending was considered extremely generous, and many people in the room looked at them with envy, offering congratulations as they continued winning bids.
Before attending the auction, Matthias had already picked out a few items he was interested in. With Celeste helping him choose, he successfully won a jewelry set worth over ten million dollars.
The Lockets and Shaws had been keeping an eye on Celeste the entire night.
Although Jorge and Xavier weren’t paying close attention, they still glanced over from time to time.
Almost everyone assumed Matthias had bought the jewelry for Celeste.
Xavier couldn’t help saying to Jorge, “Ms. Rodriguez’s relationship with Mr. Fleming is already so complicated, yet Matthias is still this devoted to her, spending that much money without hesitation. He must really love her.
“But honestly, the more I look at her, the prettier she gets. If it were me—”
Jorge frowned slightly.
He knew Xavier wasn’t wrong. But he didn’t want to discuss Celeste, so he said nothing.
Not long ago, the Lockets and Shaws had been worried sick about money. Now that things had stabilized, they had started feeling pretty pleased with themselves.
But the moment they saw Matthias casually spend over ten million dollars on jewelry for Celeste, their expressions immediately darkened.
Linda was practically burning with jealousy.
“He just gave away something worth over ten million dollars like it was nothing? Is Matthias crazy?”
Wynn and Lilian remained silent.
Meanwhile, neither Matthias nor Celeste cared what anyone else thought.
Celeste had only come along to offer advice.
But as the auction neared its finale, something finally caught her attention—the event’s highlight piece, a master-level traditional painting.
The starting bid alone exceeded ten million dollars.
The moment bidding began, Celeste raised her paddle without hesitation.
The Lockets, the Shaws, Jorge, Xavier, and everyone else nearby were stunned.
Linda nearly shot to her feet.
“She’s actually bidding on something that expensive?”
A painting with a starting price above ten million dollars would easily climb to 30 or even 50 million before it was sold.
Yet Celeste had entered the bidding without the slightest hesitation.
Jealousy twisted Linda’s expression instantly.
The rest of the Lockets and Shaws stayed quiet, but the smiles on their faces had completely disappeared.
What Linda didn’t realize was that she had actually underestimated the situation.
Quite a few people had come specifically for this painting.
As the bids climbed higher and higher, Celeste continued following almost every raise without hesitation.
At first, the Lockets, the Shaws, Xavier, Jorge, and the others all assumed the painting was something Matthias wanted.
But after Celeste raised her paddle several more times, people gradually realized that her bidding number was completely different from Matthias’s.
Xavier froze for a second before turning toward Jorge.
“So Ms. Rodriguez is actually buying this painting herself? It’s not a gift from Matthias?”
After all, earlier it had been Matthias who raised the paddle for the jewelry set.
Even Jorge looked visibly surprised.
At that moment, someone nearby suddenly recalled something.
“Wait… isn’t Ms. Rodriguez the mysterious buyer who spent 1.8 billion dollars on that super diamond last year? And I remember hearing she spent nearly another two billion not long ago too.
“Now she’s bidding on a painting like this…
“Just how wealthy is she? What’s her background?”
