Lovely Substitute Bride novel Chapter 83

Harry stood under the light and instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"Everyone, please prepare for the gala to begin soon."

As he said that, he winked at Tiana and called out to the others.

Every year, the Sava Charity Party would invite the most popular celebrity to be the host. Although they were used to seeing big stars, when Harry appeared, everyone's eyes lit up.

Although there weren't many participants from Charity party this time, the amount of funds raised each year far exceeded tens of millions.

The money had been raised by auctioning items donated by the guests. After the party was over, it would be sent to a charity organization for the construction of the primary school.

Conor immediately gave the number plate to Tiana.

Very quickly, an oil painting was placed on the table. It was a painting donated by a celebrity.

Harry held onto the microphone and stood on stage like a fish in water, the atmosphere gradually became lively.

Tiana looked at the price increase of one hundred thousand for every number plate raised by her side. In a few minutes, the price of the painting was raised to one million.

She stared at the painting on the stage, unable to understand how such a painting could be worth so much money.

Conor took note of her gaze.

"You want it?"

Tiana immediately shook her head.

"The creator of this painting is an actor and a painter?"

"No."

Conor smiled, then raised his hand to point at a star in a red dress sitting at the back.

"This is only a show. There aren't many people here who have come for charity. They want reputations."

"To most people, spending a little money to buy a good reputation is worth it."

The corner of his mouth curled up, revealing a trace of a mocking smile.

"What about you?" Tiana looked at him.

Conor spoke indifferently, his tone carrying an incomparably domineering aura.

"People don't offer the reputation."

Very quickly, the oil painting on the stage was bought by someone for a high price of two million, and a second item was brought up.

Tiana observed for a while and realized that the people here did not care about what the auction items were.

The higher the status of the person offering the item, the higher the price.

Very quickly, the auction had reached its conclusion. Even Tina made Adam Hart buy two things.

Tiana did not move until the last item was carefully brought up.

The cloth covering it was removed, and in the white tray, there was a Yellowstone carving paperweight in Qingtian.

The lights came down, shining brightly.

Tiana's eyes lit up. From a distance, this paperweight was already extraordinary.

As expected, as the main attraction of the Charity party, everyone became interested.

Some of those present, who liked to play with antiques, were eager to give it a try.

Tiana was also carefully observing them.

Conor looked at her and saw that Tiana's eyes were shining.

Staring at the paperweight, she was as if a kitten rubbing its claws in her heart.

The others started to bid, but she didn't bid.

In a short while, the price had reached five million.

The number of bidders gradually dwindled. It seemed that the bidding was about to end.

Suddenly, Conor pulled Tiana's hand and raised it up.

Harry's gaze fell on their hands, complex emotions hidden within.

"Six million."

The deep voice raised the price by a million and spoke in a casual tone.

Tiana was shocked, she looked at him in surprise.

Conor moved closer to his.

"Don't you want it?"

Conor continued, "Buy me good reputation."

He slightly curled the corner of his mouth as a trace of a smile flowed out from his eyes.

He moved closer a little and whispered into Tiana's ear.
