The venue was silent. To everyone’s disappointment, Tristan Beckett faintly withdrew his gaze and did not continue bidding.
‘If she likes it that much, I’ll give it to her.’ Tristan thought. “$2 million sold!” The sound of the hammer finalized the bidding war.
The crowd was a little shocked. ‘Mr. Beckett conceded?’ The show that they were expecting was not that exciting after all.
Joyce coldly snorted and thought, ‘This doesn’t even cost that much. Tristan Beckett raised the bid for no reason just so that I’ll spend an extra million.
He did this on purpose, right? She stood up and went to make the payment. Fabian followed by her side.
None of them noticed that they were being followed Joyce looked at the pair of cufflinks and handed them to Fabian personally.
“It’s for you.” Fabian froze and widened his eyes in shock. “For me?” ‘It’s worth two million dollars, yet Joyce just gave them to me?’ Joyce nodded and smiled. “Thanks for accompanying me to the auction.
It’s a little a gift, so just accept it.” “Thanks for your kindness, Ms. Powell, but I can’t take it.” “But in my opinion, only you are worthy of this pair of cufflinks.” Fabian was someone who could give up everything for his dream, so his heart and passion were very admirable.
They could hear heavy footsteps leaving from outside the door, but Joyce and Fabian did not care.
Fabian still wanted to refuse, so Joyce hesitated for a moment and said, “If you don’t like it, then you can give it to someone else.” Joyce could not take back what she had given. It just so happened that Julie and Kai came in one after the other.
Julie chuckled and said, “I just saw Mr. Beckett leaving in a rage.
Did you guys get into an argument?” Fabian shook his head in confusion. “No… No one came in just now…” Joyce recalled the heavy footsteps she heard earlier and understood in an instant.
However, she was not concerned. Julie went over and took Joyce’s hand. “Let’ s go get something to eat.” Joyce nodded, greeted the rest, and followed Julie out. “It’s really unexpected for Tristan to give way to you.”
Joyce sneered, “You think he’s giving in? He’s clearly just raising the price!” Julie nodded and finally understood.
“That makes sense! Not far away, many young actresses surrounded Ines and flattered her. Ines was the daughter of a showbiz big shot, so naturally, they had to suck up to her.
After all, being banned or being a big hit was just a matter of her words. When Ines saw the oncoming Joyce, she was furious, so she had to mock Joyce.
“Ms. Powell, you’re really willing to spend money on a man. I’m curious… How do you manage to get a different man by your side every time?” Ines was laughing at Joyce’s messy private life.
The surrounding people smiled perfunctorily and did not dare to chime in. They knew of Joyce’s status and knew that she was not someone they could afford to e offend! Joyce laughed.
She was so beautiful and striking. Joyce simply standing there was enough to steal the spotlight from all the actresses around her. She was such a unique beauty that no one could shift their gaze away from her.
“Well… That’s because I’m beautiful. I’m afraid that it’ll be difficult for you to follow in my footsteps though…” Joyce even glanced regretfully at Ines to scrutinize her done-up features.
There was no specialty in Ines’ beauty, like a regular beauty filter When Ines heard this, she immediately exploded in anger. Ines hated it when people talked and laughed about her plastic surgery.
“Joyce, don’t think that I’m afraid of you just because you’re Floyd Powell’s daughter! You’re just an average basic b*tch! Do you think Tristan Beckett would’ve married you three years ago if your face wasn’t bearable?” Joyce hated that name. Julie saw that Joyce’s expression changed and hastily retorted.
“Ines, I remember that you confessed to him three years ago but failed and went to get plastic surgery instead. Could it be because he thought that you were fugly?” Ines’ face turned red while she shook with anger.
She was so vexed as if what Julie said was true. Her eyes that had been operated on were so big that they almost popped out of her sockets when she glared at the ladies.
“That’s nonsense! You’re the fugly one! You both are ugly!” As Ines shouted, she picked up a drink from the side and threw it at Joyce without thinking it through. Unexpectedly, Joyce’s reaction was extremely fast and pulled Julie to the side, perfectly avoiding the splash.
However… A Chorvoe of clothes Mitchell spoke anxiously at the side,” President, are you alright? Do you want to get a change of clothes?”
When Tristan Beckett heard what Joyce said earlier that only Fabian was worthy of those cufflinks, he got so angry that he turned around and left without a word.
He never would have thought that it was such a coincidence to see Joyce surrounded by people amidst an argument. When he walked over, a glass of juice was splashed on him He became collateral damage.
At this moment, everyone, except Joyce, looked at Ines like she was doomed. Ines was stunned and her lips twitched.” Tristan… A-Are you okay?” Tristan’s gaze was cold and dark. His voice was extremely cold.
“I’m not familiar with you. Please call me Mr. Beckett.” After that, he just gently swept a glance at Joyce, who looked unconcerned, then Cort turned around and left.
No one ever dared to make Tristan look so wretched since he was born. Mitchell hurriedly caught up to his boss. Ines had just told everyone that she was on good terms with Tristan Beckett and that their families would most likely have a marriage alliance.
In the blink of an eye, Ines was slapped in the face by the protagonist himself. ‘Not familiar? What a deadly insult!’ Ines thought. She bit her lower lip and stared at Joyce with indignation.
The glass that was already empty was clenched tightly in her hand. Ines just wanted to crush Joyce. Julie even added fuel to the fire from the side. “I’m afraid Tristan Beckett forgot your last name.
Did you introduce yourself?” Joyce could not help but laugh lightly, then she pulled Julie away. ete The rest of the group immediately changed the topic.
They did not want to upset this princess… The dinner was about to begin. Kai was the biggest movie star there, while Fabian was the hottest young actor. The organizers could not afford to invite Kai to make a presence onstage.
Besides, Kai only did whatever he wanted depending on his mood. Thus, the organizers took this opportunity to get the recently popular young actor, Fabian, to go onstage.
Fabian was used to this kind of scene, so he calmly greeted everyone and spoke eloquently However, the host was not willing to give up the opportunity of a hot topic.
“Fabian, now that you’ve already come of age, may I ask, on behalf of your fans, what Ι kind of girls do you like?” Fabian froze for a moment and lowered his head with a smile.
He was not going to te answer this tricky question. Seeing this, the host rephrased his question.
“Among the ladies present, is there a type that you admire?” Everyone waited for Fabian’s answer with bated breath.
Fabian thought about it and spotted Joyce in the middle of the crowd. His smile was innocent and bright, revealing his small protruding cuspid. “I admire ladies like Ms. Powell.”
Everyone cheered and looked at Joyce’s reaction.
Joyce laughed helplessly and waved her hand at Fabian as she thought, ‘What a cute kid… He can be led by the nose with just one question… Is it just because I gave him that pair of cufflinks?’ She was already involved in a lot of scandals, so she did not mind adding a few more to her list.
