Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

However, without any concrete evidence, all of this was just Caroline’s own guess. That was why Caroline hid some details when Mr. Hall asked about the situation. She claimed that Vivian appeared and helped her escape from danger.

Caroline’s thoughts were simple. If Vivian’s target was really her, then no matter who was behind Vivian or what her purpose was, Vivian would still try to get close to her.

Now that Joline mentioned the Smith family, she was able to face it calmly.

She patted Caroline’s hand. “You just need to remember one thing. In my heart, only the three of you are the most important.”

In other words, she wanted Caroline to not be too reserved and not care too much about other people’s feelings, even if she was facing the Smith family.

“Alright, let’s go to the auction.”

The auction had already begun. The host’s hammer fell, and he announced that the second item had been successfully bid for at a price of 6.9 million.

Kelly, who was sitting in the second last row, gasped.

She had come to this event with someone else’s invitation card purely to watch the fun. Although both Balor and Austin had sponsored her a sum of money before she left, even so, with the pocket money she had saved, she still could not win such an item.

She didn’t expect there to be so many rich people in this circle, and they spent it without any hesitation.

Kelly flinched and regretted that she could not bring out the things she had brought.

At this moment, there was movement at the banquet hall’s door. She turned around and her gaze froze. She saw Caroline following Joline to the center of the first row and sat down.

Kelly looked at Caroline’s godlike side profile from six or seven rows away. It felt like there was a huge gap between them.

Just a few months ago, Caroline didn’t even have the right to follow her. But now, Caroline had really turned over a new leaf. She had turned from a sparrow into a phoenix!

Kelly’s hand that was holding the number plate convulsed for a moment because she used too much force. She closed her eyes tightly and suppressed her feelings of unwillingness and hatred toward Caroline from her eyes to her heart. She was waiting for the right opportunity to release all of it.

Caroline still did not know that her appearance had made her the target of others. She was listening to the host introducing a pair of pink diamond earrings on stage.

Seeing that she was interested, Joline took the lead and raised her number plate. “1 million.”

It was actually 300,000 more than the previous bidder.

The crowd saw that it was just a pair of earrings and didn’t need to compete with Old Madam Anderson. They kept their number plates and stopped bidding. Joline won the earrings.

Joline whispered into Caroline’s ear proudly, “I knew these earrings would suit you the moment I saw them.”

So, because she looked at the earrings for a second, Joline bought it?

Caroline was a little overwhelmed by the favor and said honestly, “Eva’s birthday is coming soon, so I want to choose a birthday gift for her. She likes pink, so I was thinking if I should bid for this as a gift for her.”

Joline was a little disappointed when she heard that she wanted to give it to someone, but then she thought of Eva’s cute and blessed face and how she would look beautiful with the earrings.

“By the way, what’s the item you’ve prepared?” she asked with concern. Caroline: “I’ve prepared a painting. It’s a work of a pioneer artist.”

Although she was penniless at the beginning and had to rely on reselling jewelry to make a living, things were different now. After extorting a sum of money from Balor, she was left with more than 10 million after buying the house. In addition to the considerable commission from finding the ‘Water Star’, the money in Caroline’s account would be enough to support her, Eva, and Danika for the rest of their lives if it wasn’t for the fact that she had something important to do.

The only troublesome thing was that she was now the future lady of the Anderson family. If she took out something too inferior, it was inevitable that people would say something.

Everyone in the circle knew that she had donated most of her family’s fortune. If she brought out something too good, anyone with eyes would know what was going on. Thus, she decided not to pretend and act within her means..
