A Cue for Love novel Chapter 189

Chapter 189 Increasing Bid

The bid of the painting kept increasing even though it had far exceeded the amount it was worth.

To Natalie’s surprise, more and more people raised their bidding paddles as the auctioneer called out the prices in high spirits.

Natalie went back to her seat beside Yandel and pushed her glasses up her nose lightly, looking like a young man.

“One hundred and fifty million!”

“One hundred and sixty million!”

The corner of Natalie’s lips twitched when she heard the numbers. This is ridiculous!

Yandel did not miss the change in expression on her face as he whispered, “Boss, you and that lady are amazing! The bid for the painting rises to a great extent because of your performance. There is a chance that it will become the item that is sold at the highest price in today’s auction!”

“I wore a veil. You still recognize me?” Natalie frowned.

She did not wear the veil to cover her freckles. Instead, it was because she did not want anyone to find out who she was.

“Well, I could still see your eyes. Even the dancer was not as calm as you were on the stage.” Yandel paused for a second before continuing, “I’ve known you for years and I’m used to seeing you in the hyper-realistic mask, so I can recognize you just by looking at your eyes. That said, that doesn’t mean that other people would be able to recognize you just now.”

Natalie nodded in response.

The bid was still increasing as seconds ticked by.

“Five hundred and eighty million going once!”

“Five hundred and eighty million going twice!”

“Five hundred and eighty million going thrice!”

As the gavel fell, the painting, The Flying Goddess, was sold at a price ten times its original value.

Yandel was not shocked at all at the price it was auctioned off.

Meanwhile, Natalie had a plan in her mind and said, “Yandel, I need you to do something for me.”

“Three hundred and ten million!”

“Three hundred and twenty million!”

“Three hundred and thirty million!”

The competition for the dragonblood fruit was even fiercer than The Flying Goddess.

Only people who understood its value knew it was indeed a worthy treasure.

Meanwhile, Natalie was unfazed as she watched on. She did not even touch her bidding paddle, not to mention raising it.

When Yandel was back, he saw her sitting there, looking as though she was about to give up.

Why does Boss not worry at all?

He was totally dumbfounded. “Boss, isn’t this dragonblood fruit your target in today’s auction? Why aren’t you raising your paddle? Is it because you have some secret plans to make sure you get it in the end?”
