Mr. CEO Your Wife Has Wanted a Divorce for a Long Time (by Zora Pradeep) novel Chapter 378

Chapter 378

As soon as Maggie spoke, it wasn’t just Janice, Lauren, Rex, and Levi were all nned.

Lauren was speechless, that went without saying.

Rex had done a bit of research on Maggie before and knew that her family background was relatively average. While the Miller family’s business had improved this year, it still seemed unlikely that they could casually pull out several hundred million to buy a single diamond

Levi believed he understood Maggie’s situation inside and out.

With the Miller family’s current financial standing, even pulling out one hundred million in cash would be a stretch, let alone five hundred million.

Sure, Franklin had once prepaid twenty billion to Maggie as a thank you, allowing her to use it for the Miller family’s cash flow.

And yes, the family business had picked up since, and Maggie likely still had a substantial amount of that money left.

But still, casually dropping that kind of money on a diamond? That felt… insang

With that thought, Levi immediately pulled out his phone and fired off a message to Franklin:

[When I first saw your wife enter the venue, I was wondering what she was doing here. Now I get it… This diamond up for auction, you know the one? Starting bid was 400 million. She just bumped it straight to 500 million. She’s really trying to win this?! My god, she’s lost her–1

Levi was still frantically typing when someone else raised the bid to 550 million.

But before he could finish his message, Maggie calmly raised her paddle again

“Seven hundred million.”

Levi: “……”

He didn’t even bother finishing his sentence and just hit send.

Though everyone attending tonight’s auction had guessed the final bid for the rare diamond wouldn’t be under a billion, Maggie’s bidding style, raising by 100 or even 150 million at a time, was so aggressive that in just three rounds, the price had jumped to 700 million.

It wasn’t just Janice, Lauren, and Levi who were shocked, now even others in the room were turning to look at her.

The audience was packed with the wives and daughters of the world’s wealthiest families.

Even if they didn’t know each other personally, most of them recognized one another by reputation.

But Maggie looked unfamiliar. And with the way she was throwing around money like it was nothing, people around her began whispering:

“Who is she?”

“Do you know her?”

“Where did she come from?”

The bidding continued.

Maggie followed nearly every new offer without hesitation.

When she raised her paddle once more, the bid jumped to one billion.

At that moment, Janice finally understood, Maggie really intended to win this diamond.

Her lips tightened into a thin, red line.

Levi also caught on.

To be honest, he was in a bit of a dare.

Franklin still hadn’t responded to any of his messages.

But Levi couldn’t resist. Once he snapped out of his shock, he messaged Franklin again:

[Your wife just pushed the bid to one billion. Holy crap, she’s seriously going for it! She actually loves diamonds this much?!)
