SIGNING IN: BEING SHOWERED BY HEAVENLY BLESSINGS FOR FIVE YEARS novel Chapter 842

Chapter 842: Chapter 840: THE BLIND AUCTION 2

"Um, what are you looking for?" a man wearing a brown suit and pair of glasses asked curiously as he nudged the woman who was sitting next to him.

The woman who was looking in the direction of the private rooms turned her head to look at the man and smiled at him as she responded, "I just saw an acquaintance."

The man was surprised when he heard that, and his curiosity was further piqued. However, as he was about to ask who the other person was. Someone called his name, making him shift his attention to the other person.

As for the woman, she was Letty, Samantha’s daughter. The one Diamond met in Amber City a while ago and bought pills from Diamond.

Her mother had received the invitation, but she had other things to do and didn’t feel like spending again on another auction, so she transferred the invitation to Letty. Since the invited could bring a plus one, Letty brought her husband.

Although things were a bit tricky between her and him when she went to Amber City back then. After her return, it could be said that things were turning for the better, and her husband was glued to her side all the time.

With how everything was moving, Letty couldn’t help but smile as she gently caressed her flat belly. She should get some good news, right?

In another corner of the hall, someone also sighed as he looked away from the private area.

’Is it her? Where have I seen her? I feel as if I have talked to her and was close to her, but why can’t I seem to remember?’ The man’s mind was aching with all these thoughts.

If Diamond were to see this man, she would be surprised. After all, it was quite unexpected to be in the same place as one of her beloved exes, Kian. It was truly unexpected.

However, he wasn’t the only one present in that place. In another corner, Donald was sitting with his female secretary, and just like others, he happened to catch a glimpse of Diamond.

His face was currently gloomy, and his female secretary pretended like she wasn’t seeing him at all. After all, who would want to bear the brunt of something that she didn’t take part in?

Donald hated Diamond so much at this moment. _{fr\eewebno vel .c(o)m}

She not only blackmailed, threatened and blocked him. But she made his father doubt him, and he even took away some of his authority.

He hated her so much and had always been praying to meet her one day since he couldn’t find where she was staying.

It was completely unexpected that he would come across her tonight. And to meet her in the arms of another man, Donald’s anger spiked high once again.

It was completely uncertain how he would react if he ever met her.

In a private room, three rooms away from where Diamond and the Ace family were, Portia was sulking as she looked at the photos that the JEWELS had posted promoting Diamond.

"Do you want to burn holes looking at the photos?" her father asked teasingly upon seeing how his daughter was reacting.

Portia raised her head and looked sulkily at her father.

"Umph! Dad, she didn’t even tell me that she came. How can I learn of her arrival through the media like this?"

Portia’s father laughed heartily when he heard that. How could his daughter be so cute like that?

To think that there was a moment when Portia didn’t want to hear anything about Diamond, and at some point, he and his wife even wanted to make a move against Diamond, but then later got humbled.

He found his daughter’s reaction quite unexpected and funny.

"Dad!" she aggrievedly called, seeing how much he was having fun with her situation.

He wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and started coaxing his daughter.

"Dear, she might have been busy. Why don’t you call her later or see her after the auction comes to an end? You are friends, right?"

Portia quieted down as she listened to that and found his words quite reassuring.

In the end, she decided to check on Diamond once the auction was done. She didn’t have the face to visit the Ace private room. What if she gets into a verbal fight with those twins?

The thought of losing face to the twins made her body tremble. She couldn’t afford it.

Time quickly flew, and before everyone knew it, the hall was filled with guests and the doors were locked.

It was time for the real deal to appear.

Diamond was looking forward to seeing the person behind this amazing auction. After all, one can’t be a nobody to organize such an auction every year.

Her curiosity was satisfied when a voluptuous lady appeared on the stage, making the hall erupt in cheerful applause.

[Ding! Urgent mission issued!]

[Acquire the painting at all costs!] It mechanically said before disappearing.
