She's out of Your League Now (Millie and Winston)

League 364

Marvin chuckled. “Indeed.”

Simultaneously, the man across from Millie’s room suddenly sneezed. The person next to him promptly handed him a tissue.

“Ladies and gentlemen, please sit down. The auction will start now.” The robot hurriedly approached

Millie. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

The diamond bracelet was even better than shown in the picture. Millie loved its quality. Sadly, she had limited funds. Otherwise, she would have bid on the bracelet and brought it home as a gift for Julia.

Millie observed the first item without making a bid, while nearly every participant with a female companion placed bids. The bidding for this item quickly escalated to 5 million yewros.

Millie believed that the price should be at its peak, given the item’s true value. If others were aware of its worth, they should stop bidding by now. Any additional bids would only result in financial loss.

Indeed, everyone was aware of the true value of the item, ultimately leading to a successful bid of 5 million.

“We’ll now proceed to auction the second item.”

This item was also popular, as it was a necklace donated by the first lady. The real piece was displayed on the big screen. As Millie looked at it, her heart skipped a beat.

Although she hadn’t cared much when reading the product description earlier, for some reason, she was now genuinely moved. It was all because of the necklace’s butterfly design.

Butterfly pendants were quite common, but this necklace stood out with its unique butterfly pattern, locking each button. It was a testament to the designer’s creativity and attention to detail. Furthermore, Millie had a special fondness for necklaces.

“This is nice,” Marvin complimented.

Millie gazed at Marvin, who returned her gaze with a smile. “Boss, do you like it?”

Millie agreed without hesitation. She loved it, but she knew the goal today was to bid for the Aspher for Arthur. Even though she liked it, she had to keep it to herself because they didn’t have enough funds today.

Marvin reassured Millie. “It’s fine, just place the bid for fun.”

Millie shook her head, dismissing the idea completely. If she did end up winning the bid, she knew she would regret it.

At the auction, the bidders quickly made their bids. The robot beside her kept updating the bid.

Millie saw the price go up from five million to ten million yewros. It appeared that everyone was interested in this necklace. She couldn’t help but feel tempted as she watched the price continue to rise.

Twelve million.” Millie couldn’t resist bidding, if only to ensure that such a luxurious item wasn’t sold for a low price. It deserved a much higher valuation.

Marvin was taken aback when Millie, who had previously stayed quiet, suddenly raised the bid by two

million.

Unbeknownst to Millie, the man in the room across from them sneaked numerous glances in her direction.

The bidding price had been increased to 13 million. Mille frowned and continued to raise the price. “15 million.”

Some people kept bidding and the price went up to 18 million. Millie didn’t dare to bid anymore because she was afraid of winning it. She couldn’t afford it. However, she really liked the necklace.

“18 million going once.”

Millie bit her lip and glanced outside. She wondered who the bidder in room six was. Millie looked up and realized it was William.

William also glanced at Millie, swirling the glass in his hand before raising it in a toast to her.

Millie was rendered speechless.

Winston had recognized Millie and saw her butterfly tattoo in the photo taken by the media. He also found out that William was untrustworthy, so he decided to stop working with him.

After that, William and Millie both bid for the Aspher, but Millie outbid William. However, at that point, Winston abruptly decided not to proceed with the Aspher’s auction. He did it on purpose, as he was aware that Millie was interested in acquiring the herb.
