Chapter 185 Stepping Hard on Gavyn
He was still right there, and yet Aylin dared to flirt with this pretty boy right in front of him, acting all lovey-dovey. Did she think he was invisible or something?
Gavyn didn’t even realize that something was off. In fact, he was already her ex-husband, and he had long ceased to have any connection with Aylin. It wasn’t his place to be jealous anymore.
Feeling displeased, Gavyn wanted to do something about it. He immediately raised his sign and sald calmly, “30,000 dollars.”
The auctioneer was delighted, “Great! This gentleman has offered a higher bid. Anyone else interested? 30,000 dollars going once!”
Aylin clenched her teeth and turned to look at Gavyn. This jerk, he didn’t bid on any of the previous jewelry items, but now he’s here to compete with her?
Gavyn crossed his hands in front of him, leaning back in his chair, exuding an air of leisure and
relaxation.
Aylin couldn’t help but feel annoyed as she watched.
Gavyn doesn’t wear jewelry, and considering this is a youthful design, it’s not hard to imagine who Gavyn might have bought it for as a gift.
It’s most likely a gift for his pretentious woman, Laila!
Aylin felt heartbroken about this necklace, as putting it on Laila’s neck seemed like the worst possible fate for it.
She raised her hand to bid, but someone was even quicker. A man’s clear and bright voice carried the unrestrained air of a young scion, “45,000 dollars!”
“45,000 dollars for one time!”
As the host’s voice echoed, Aylin spotted Waylon not far away. His slightly raised peach blossom eyes and the shape of his smiling lips caught her attention. “Do you like it? Should I take a picture and give it to you?”
Aylin was rendered speechless.
One problem hasn’t been solved yet, and here comes another one to make things even messier!
Aylin waved her hand, indicating that she didn’t have time to deal with Waylon any further.
Upon seeing Waylon raise the bid, Gavyn’s face immediately turned even more sour. Almost instantly, he lifted his sign and shouted, “75,000 dollars!”
In one breath, he added 30,000 dollars, causing the organizers to cast sidelong glances.
Get Bo
Aylin clenched her teeth and took a deep breath, annoyed that Gavyn was opposing her. In a show of defiance, she raised her sign and declared loudly,
220,000 dollars!”
Other guests at the scene had also taken a liking to this necklace. However, upon witnessing this situation, they were all left in awe.
The price is way too high!
Waylon wanted to add a little more money to win a smile from the beauty, but after being warned by Aylin, he wisely put down the sign.
And so, the silent battle between Aylin and Gavyn began. Gavyn raised his sign once more, “105
thousand dollars!”
Aylin said, “120 thousand dollars!”
In an instant, the two of them became the center of attention for everyone present.
Even the organizers themselves were astonished. There’s no doubt that the necklace was beautiful
and luxurious, but the value of diamonds couldn’t hold a candle to that of gold.
They had internally estimated the psychological price to be at most about 95,000 dollars, but they never expected it to be auctioned off at such a high price by the two of them!
Aylin sat in the chair with her arms crossed, her lips tightly pressed together and her face full of displeasure. Gavyn had better know when to stop, or else….
Unfortunately, Gavyn just happens to be someone who doesn’t know how to take a hint.
It was as if he didn’t notice Aylin’s displeasure. His slender fingers brushed over the sign, and he
raised it again, “135 thousand dollars.”
She was dumbfounded.
Many people present had families involved in the jewelry business, and even if they weren’t, they
still had some knowledge of the industry. The necklace on Ryker, even considering the brand effect and impulse buying, was not worth that much.
Although everyone present was not short of money, Gavyn seemed eager to give money to the organizers!
Why?
Under the puzzled gazes of everyone, Aylin’s face had already turned cold. Had Gavyn taken the wrong medicine, coming here just to make her unhappy?
“150 thousand dollars!”
The woman’s voice was not loud, but it was incredibly resolute, standing out prominently in the
Det Bont
silent conference hall.
In the next moment, the entire room erupted in an uproar!
The host’s voice unconsciously grew louder, exclaiming excitedly, “150 thousand dollars in one go!”
This necklace actually sold for a six-figure sum! You know, the auction had just started not too long ago!
“Wow, it’s trending! This necklace must be really lucky to fetch such a high price!”
“Ms. Koch is really generous…”
Whispers arose, but Aylin paid no heed. She intently watched Gavyn’s movements, thinking that he
should finally back down now!
However, Gavyn seemed to be unsatisfied, tapping his fingers lightly on the sign. Aylin knew that it
meant he still wanted to raise the stakes.
On stage, the auctioneer’s voice was filled with excitement, “150 thousand dollars for the first time, 150 thousand dollars for the second time, is there anyone else who wants to raise the bid?”
“Seeing that the matter was about to be settled, Aylin became anxious and couldn’t help but speak up, “Gavyn, did you take the wrong medicine today? Why are you insisting on competing with me?”
“Unfortunately,” Gavyn said with a calm expression, “I also like this necklace.”
She was rendered speechless.
What the heck, why don’t you take it with you when you go out!
Seeing Gavyn’s fingers move, Aylin couldn’t help but feel annoyed. Without thinking too much, slightly shifted her body and fiercely stomped on his leather shoe!
Stepping on your foot with a stiletto heel is no joke.
she
Gavyn’s hand trembled slightly as he held up the sign, causing it to fall onto his lap. At that moment, the auctioneer struck the gavel for the last time, announcing, “150 thousand dollars for the third time, sold!”
The venue was filled with colorful ribbons cascading down at just the right moment. The host clapped and cheered, “I announce that this necklace has been sold for 150 thousand dollars and now belongs
to Aylin Koch, Ms. Koch!”
Ryker’s face was a mix of joy and emotion, while Aylin temporarily suppressed her anger, smiling as they exchanged glances.
It’s hard to express how unhappy she felt inside.
Get Bonus
Although she didn’t really need the money, Gavyn had managed to waste about 50,000 dollars that she shouldn’t have had to spend in the first place!
She must get even with Gavyn for this!
From Waylon’s perspective, he could clearly see Aylin’s expression. He raised an eyebrow, deep in thought about this farce.
Upon seeing Gavyn’s face, which was embarrassingly dark, Waylon couldn’t help but want to laugh,
as Gavyn had blindly tried to steal his spot.
Well, they had it coming!

Waylon took out his phone and texted Gavyn: [You know, sometimes you can’t be too arrogant.
There’s always a trade-off, whether it’s a necklace or a position.]
He replied: [Speak up, or people will think you’re mute!]
Gavyn endured the pain in his foot and coldly raised his eyes, giving a warning glance.
