My Secret Billionaire Husband

Chapter 2206: Chapter 2200: Really want to stab a knife into Joanna Lawrence’s heart

The seats of the two were next to each other.

After they took their seats.

The man laughed and asked, "Ms. Kelloway, you’ve attended auctions before, haven’t you?"

Rebecca Kelloway was a bit distracted. After a while, she replied, "Yeah." noveldrama

The man asked again, "At such auctions, what does Ms. Kelloway generally show interest in? I assume women typically are interested in jewelry and nice-looking decorative items, right?"

"As long as it has collection value, I’m quite interested," Rebecca Kelloway did not want the man to see her as a shallow woman, with a slightly curved smile she said, "Calligraphy, jewelry, musical instruments, antique ornaments, I’ve done some research on all of these, and I like them all."

The man was stunned, and then he presented an extremely admiring face: "Unexpectedly, Ms. Kelloway has such a broad range of interests. Indeed, Ms. Kelloway is a well-bred lady, extraordinarily versed. The women I know, they also attend auctions, but apart from jewelry, they have no interest in the rest."

Rebecca Kelloway chuckled: "Young girls generally love these things, liking jewelry isn’t a problem."

"Indeed," the man immediately agreed, "After all, for women, jewelry are adornments that can make them more beautiful. I heard that several jewelry sets will be auctioned at tonight’s auction. One of them is Princess Elena’s favorite necklace and earrings. I wonder if Ms. Kelloway has heard of Princess Elena?"

"The legendary princess, who was so beautiful that the king fell in love with her at first sight, and only married her in his lifetime?"

"Yes, it’s her."

"I have read some of her biographies," Rebecca Kelloway said.

"Does Ms. Kelloway know about that set of jewelry?" the man asked.

Rebecca Kelloway nodded with a smile: "I’ve seen some photographs in her biographies. It’s a very beautiful set of jewelry indeed. But I have never seen the real thing."

"You’ll have a chance to see it tonight." The man glanced at Rebecca Kelloway’s face, then said, "Would Ms. Kelloway consider bidding on it if she likes it?"

"The things I like, don’t necessarily have to be possessed." Rebecca’s eyes were faint, with little desire, "Besides, the auction price for that jewelry set must not be cheap. There are so many competitors tonight, and it’s not easy to win."

The man had already made his decision in his mind, so he didn’t say anything more.

Rebecca Kelloway didn’t feel like continuing the conversation with the man either.

She looked up, her gaze once again falling on Joanna Lawrence and Ashton Heath in the front row. She watched as Ashton’s hand rested on Joanna’s shoulder, his long fingers gently combing through her hair.

Joanna was leaning against him, talking to him about something. He was listening with his head lowered, his visible side profile all aglow with tender affection.

That tenderness and affection felt like a brutal stab at Rebecca’s heart.

She slowly clenched her fists.

If she had a knife in her hand right now, she really wanted to stab it into Joanna’s heart.

The man next to her noticed her suddenly pale face, thinking that she was feeling unwell. He immediately showed his concern and hurriedly asked, "Ms. Kelloway, are you feeling ill? Do you need to see a doctor?"

"No, I’m not feeling unwell anywhere." Rebecca Kelloway gritted her teeth, retracted her gaze, controlled her emotions and said, "Maybe it’s because the air conditioning in the hall is too high."
