Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 317

Clara also secretly asked herself in her heart, Was that really just her saying goodbye to the past? If that was the reason, why auction off the wedding ring in front of Horace? And why when she saw Horace's anger, she felt joy in her heart?

Not daring to dig deep into her mind, Clara turned her head and looked at the ring on the display stand.

Were there any regrets? Sure.

She used to love it. She was wearing it day and night, even in her showers. She used to hate it. She took it off and locked it up in a drawer, without looking at it for five years. All her feelings for Horace seemed to be concentrated in this small ring.

For Clara, this small, silvery ring represented what they have been through in the past. For five years, she dared not look at it, for fear that the sweetness and pain of the past would overwhelm her, completely suffocate and destroy her.

Before returning from abroad, she mustered up the courage to take it out. Holding the ring tightly in her hand, Clara told herself that she had to come back, and face what she didn't have the courage to face five years ago.

When she decided to auction the ring, it was heartbreaking for Clara. It felt as if the ring was not handed over from her hand, but was cut out from her heart, draping with blood. She was trembling because of the pain.

But she knew if she wanted to recover from the injuries, she had to endure the pain when the her wounds were being washed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, quiet, quiet please..." The auctioneer first signaled the people in the audience to be quiet and then told the origin of the ring.

"The owner of this lot is Miss Clara Hutchinson from the Hutchinson Group. This ring has a special meaning to her. Now, please welcome Miss Hutchinson to come up to the stage and give us an introduction to this beautiful object."

Under the strange eyes of the audience, Clara got up and walked to the stage. Seeing Clara walking towards the booth, Horace felt that she was moving away from him at the same time.

"Hello ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this auction. My name is Clara Hutchinson, the owner of this ring. As the auctioneer said just now, this ring has a special meaning to me. Now I want to send a word to the next owner of this ring, as long as you are willing to give up, you can start your life again. Thank you."

She gently bowed to the audience, turned around, walked off the exhibition stand, and returned to her seat.

Clara Selman… No, it should be Clara Hutchinson now. Horace thought to himself and gave a bitter smile.

Although "Miss Hutchinson" never looked at him the whole time, he felt that what she said was for himself.

Give up? Did she want to cut off her relationship with him? Impossible! He would never allow it!

"Thank you, Miss Hutchinson. Let's start the auction now. At the request of Miss Hutchinson, the starting price of this ring is zero, and the audience can bid at will."

"20,000."

"30,000."

"50,000."

...

Although everyone sneered at this ordinary ring of which the appearance and material were nothing to write home about, still it was the property of the Hutchinson family, so they started bidding for the sake of this family name.

It was nothing to lose a few tens of thousands of dollars, but Logan and Clara would definitely remember the faces that played along. They were bidding for a future opportunity to do business with the family, and that opportunity was priceless.

Moreover, since this auction was sponsored by the Hutchinson Group, and people who came mostly were their business partners and friends.

"100,000."
