Fern was wearing a tiara that was made of pink diamonds. The centerpiece was an 8.8-carat pink diamond. Under the lights, the diamond shone so brightly that it almost blinded everyone’s eyes. After appearing on stage with a diamond tiara on her head, she instantly became the highlight of everyone’s attention. The host introduced the piece that she was wearing. The pink diamond tiara was an extremely rare piece. Therefore, its price was astronomical as well.However, everyone’s attention shifted from the diamond to Fern. “Huh? That model looks like the female celebrity, Fernie!” “She’s not a lookalike. That is her! I didn’t expect her to model here!” “I heard that she’s been banished from the entertainment industry. She must’ve resorted to being a model because she doesn’t have any movies to film.” “Tsk tsk, but she has a pretty nice figure. Men will definitely be attracted to her. It’s no wonder President Eugene couldn’t resist—” “Shh, stop talking. Eugene Newton is si
“Mr. Stewart has made a bid for 100 million dollars. Does anyone have a higher bid?” the host asked. Nobody was bidding anymore. Perhaps they had all conceded to him. Mr. Stewart sneered as he stared at Fern, who was standing on the stage. Without Eugene on her side, he wanted to see just how capable she was. He was waiting for the host to announce him as the owner of the tiara. Nevertheless, the deep voice of a man broke through the silence. “200 million dollars,” Eugene articulated slowly and clearly. Everyone let out an inward exclamation. The Newtons were seriously loaded. He made such a high bid straight away! The smile on Mr. Stewart’s face vanished as he turned around to look at Eugene. A cold glint flashed across his gaze. Damn it, did he intend to compete with him? Eugene did not bother to spare Mr. Stewart a glance. He simply looked at Fern, who was standing on the stage. Perhaps he was looking at the tiara on the crown of her head. “Eugene, the tiara is
Fern was only in charge of wearing the jewelry and doing a catwalk on the stage to show it to everyone. She had fulfilled her responsibilities by personally bringing the tiara to Eugene. How dare he ask her to put it on his date?The staff member standing by the side noticed that Fern was standing there without moving. Her actions showed that she was slightly at odds with Eugene. He told Eugene, “President Eugene, I’ll put it on your date.”“No, I want her to do it.” Eugene pointed at Fern.Fern looked straight into his eyes. That meant that he was doing this on purpose. Did he want to humiliate her in front of so many people?She sneered and said, “President Eugene, since you bought this tiara as a gift for your date, you should personally put it on her to show her just how sincere you are.”“My sincerity isn’t determined by what you say. I want your service right now.” Eugene looked straight at her. He was behaving ruthlessly right now.Fern’s pretty face stiffened as she loo
The audience beneath the stage started bidding. It seemed like this jade bracelet was a hot-selling piece as well. Fern raised her hand on stage to show the bracelet off. Why did it feel like she was being auctioned off instead?She stared at Eugene. Did he intend to purchase this item for Sydney again? She did not expect Mr. Stewart to win the bid! “Congratulations for winning the bid for this jade bracelet at a price of 50 million dollars!” Mr. Stewart got up with a smile on his face amidst the applause from the audience. “Thank you, everyone! You were the ones who let me win!” He then looked at Fern, who was standing on the stage. “You, come over and hand me the bracelet,” he said in a challenging tone. Fern had guessed that he would ask her to do something like that. She thought that she would be able to get her remuneration and leave after modeling this bracelet. She had to do this for the money. She did not say much this time around. She brought the jade bracele
Fern turned around to look at Eugene after registering his words. She did not understand what he meant. He had made things difficult for her and put her in an awkward position just now, but he was now generously paying the compensation on her behalf? Did he feel superior to her because she was having a hard time after leaving him? She felt like picking up that bank card and throwing it at him. She did not need his help! Nevertheless, Mr. Stewart was eyeing her in a hostile manner by the side. She would rather owe money to Eugene than that treacherous beast! Mr. Stewart could tell that Eugene intended to protect Fern. It was meaningless for him to continue making things difficult for her. However, he was unwilling to give in just like that. He suggested something even worse, “This 50 million dollars is for the broken bracelet. The money will be given to the brand. In fact, I’m still making a loss here. Therefore, she should pay me another 50 million dollars.” He looked a
“But I heard that you don’t have any movies or commercials to film recently. Without any income, how are you going to pay me back?” Fern glanced at him coldly. He knew about her current situation. It was no wonder that he was making things hard for her on purpose. “I… This is just temporary. I won’t be out of projects forever.” She firmly believed in this. Eugene narrowed his eyes and stared at her. He let out a mocking laugh and asked, “Where’s Jeremy Ziegler? Why isn’t he helping you out during such a critical point in time? Doesn’t he want to set up an agency with you?” Fern knew that he was mocking her. Her face stiffened as she said, “It’s none of your business.” Eugene nodded and said, “That’s right, I almost forgot about our agreement. We agreed not to contact each other ever again. However, I talked to you a lot today. You won’t complain about it in front of the old master and ask him to break my legs, will you?” His words were full of hostility! Fern glared a
Sharon could not help but be surprised to hear this from Quincy. "You're leaving? Where are you going?"The light in Quincy's eyes vanished as she lowered her eyes. "Before, I was too young and relied on my knowledge of Dayton. I thought of confronting him, thinking that I could easily take back everything from our family from him and avenge my parents. But now I understand that I was too naive."She raised her eyes to look at Sharon and continued, "I'm doing well with my marksmanship now. Next, I want to go and learn more before I have enough leverage to confront him."It was also because she had underestimated Dayton that he was able to take the Night Empire from her parents. He was certainly not a simple person.It was her fault that she grew up with him and thought he was still the same person she knew. She did not expect him to be hiding so much that she could not understand him at all, nor did she expect him to be so ruthless in his methods.Sharon thought she was right, nod
"I think you're just seeking death!""If I really know her whereabouts, no one will know where she is if you kill me," Sharon reminded him. Dayton, who was originally so angry that he could not control the urge to pull the trigger, suddenly calmed down considerably."Young Master, a car was found driving away from the manor’s side gate." His men hurriedly came to report.The first thing that came to mind was that Quincy had escaped again. "Chase after her!" He jumped into a car and went along with his man to chase after her."Hey, you're getting too excited, that's not Quincy!" Sharon shouted at him, but he simply did not listen to her.Sharon shook her head. "Fine, suit yourself."Claude was not at ease. He knew who was driving the car, so he immediately got in his car to give chase."I'll come with you to make sure Dayton won’t do anything to you." She also got into the car.Claude started the car and accelerated.After they all left, Quincy drove the car that Sharon had pr
