The True Lady Strikes Back novel (Cecilia and Christopher)

Chapter

34

The auction was held in Prime Auction House.

The auction house categorized the items and arranged them into various special sessions. An auction would be held almost every day.

However, the Elite Auction was only held once a month, and there would be some unique items that a person would miss if he did not attend the auction. Therefore, there were many people on this day of the month.

When Cecilia and Christopher arrived, the auction house was full of luxury cars.

Although the journalists could not enter the auction hall, they could take some photos of celebrities outside.

On both sides of the red carpet, there were journalists with

cameras.

The flashing lights kept flickering, making people dizzy.

Cecilia did not want to be noticed. She asked Christopher, "Christopher, can you avoid the journalists and enter the auction hall?"

Christopher had always avoided the journalists when he came.

Therefore, only a few people knew what he looked like even though he held great power and influence in Quilton.

The people who knew Christopher's appearance dared not to say anything after hearing his warning.

Today, he did not want to avoid the journalists and wanted to label Cecilia on him.

However, Cecilia did not give him a chance.

Christopher smiled dotingly. "Just call me Chris and I will avoid the journalists."

Cecilia looked at Christopher speechlessly and felt that he was a cu**ing person who narrowed the distance between them step by step. Christopher smiled at Cecilia and said, “Faster make a decision. The journalists are coming."

"Chris."

"Good girl, that's what you will call me from now on."

After Christopher finished speaking, he asked the driver to go. straight to the office area through the internal passageway. There was only one car parked in the huge backyard. A handsome man in a white suit leaned against the domineering Hu**er. He had a cigarette in his mouth and there was an affectionate look in his beautiful eyes.

Matthias threw the unburned cigarette end on the ground and crushed it with his feet.

He got up and walked to Christopher's car, staring at the rear door calmly.

Cecilia was about to open the door but stopped her hand at the handle when she saw Matthias outside.

She turned to look at Christopher and asked, "Who is he?"

"My best friend, Matthias Quinn. He is also the boss of the auction house."

Hearing this, Cecilia got out of the car and thanked Matthias, "Mr. Quigley, thanks for your help in temporarily adding my herb plantation to the auction list."

Matthias smiled and said, "You don't have to thank me. I am doing it for the sake of Christopher."

As he spoke, he sized Cecilia up.

Matthias thought, "No wonder the indifferent Christopher was moved. Her appearance and figure are perfect. It is rare to see someone have a clean aura when she is dressed so se*y." The The Lady Strikes Back

Christopher stepped forward and stood in front of Cecilia, blocking her, as he looked at Matthias unhappily.

"Control yourself. Don't scare her."

"I'm already controlling myself. If it weren't you who brought her, I would have jumped on her."

Matthias' voice was not low, which made Cecilia embarrassed.

"Mr. Quinn, can I tell you more about the herb plantation now?"

When it came to business, Matthias immediately put away his playful look and said, "Let's talk in my office, Miss..."

Under Christopher's threatening gaze, he changed the way called Cecilia.

he

Cecilia did not like the title. "Mr. Quinn, just call me by my name."

"Okay, Ms. Yancey."

Then, Matthias turned around and entered the office building..

After entering the CEO's private elevator, he found that

Christopher was carrying the hem of the dress for Cecilia. He was shocked.

Matthias secretly took a photo and sent it to their group chat. AdmireOfBeauty: [Tsk, I didn't expect that Christopher who dislikes women would have such a day!] Calvin quickly replied.

Cal: [Matthias, did you just get online?]

After saying that, he sent the photos on the campus forum to the group chat.

EtchedInMyBones: [Holy cr*p. Why are you doing something. big while I'm not in Quilton?]

AdmireOfBeauty: [Christopher is in love. Quickly come back to assist him.]

Looking at the dessert class program that he still had a month to finish, Marcus Hdl wanted to vomit blood.

The group chat was very lively, but Christopher did not know

it

He thought the three of them were talking too much, so he had already blocked the group message.

Christopher only texted a few words when he thought of it occasionally,

When they arrived at the CEO's office, Matthias put his phone back in his pocket and listened carefully to Cecilia about ber herb plantation.

After Cecilia finished speaking, he said, "Ms. Yancey, although Elite Auction has no precedent of failure in auctioning, your herb plantation is an unpopular item and was not promoted in the auction catalog, first. It may not be sold"

Although Matthias did not think such a thing would happen, he still gave Cecilia an advanced reminder.

Cecilia understood and was men**lly prepared,

"I know. It doesn't matter if it can't be sold. I just want to give it a try"

In fact, Cecilia knew many people who were engaged in the business of herbs. If she sold them in small batches, the price would be much higher, and the herbs alone could sell for 1 billion dollars. However, it was time-consuming, Cecilia needed money and she could not wait for that long,

Matthias said, "Ms. Yancey, don't worry. For the sake of

Christopher, I will ask the commentator to talk more about it. What is your expected price?"

To sell the auction items at a higher price and also to heat the

auction, it was a hidden rule to secretly raise the price of the auction items.

Cecilia did not dare to think too much now and said with a smile, "As long as it can be sold."

"Okay, I got it. There are 20 minutes before the auction. You can go to the lounge to eat something. The duration of the auction is a bit long."

Christopher nodded and took Cecilia downstairs to the lounge of the auction hall.

As soon as they entered, they became the focus of attention.

Cecilia did not like being noticed, so she said to Christopher, "Go and socialize. I'll find a place to sit down."

"Okay, I'll go and greet some friends. I'll see you later."

Cecilia nodded and sat down in the corner of the lounge.

She was s*xy, cool, and particularly charming. Many pl****oys were interested in her.

However, Christopher's identity was spread before they could do anything to Cecilia.

Cecilia was brought by Christopher. Of course, no one dared to have bad intentions or even get close to her.

Cecilia was happy to be able to be alone.

After sitting for a while, she felt hungry and signaled a waiter. "Please give me a glass of orange juice and a piece of black forest cake."

As soon as she finished speaking, her arm was grabbed.

Jonathan looked at Cecilia in se*y clothes and roared, "Cecilia, come here!"

Then, he pulled Cecilia up from the chair.

Cecilia was caught off guard. She wore high heels and lost her balance under her feet, almost falling down.

The waiter was startled and hurriedly said, "Sir, please let go of this lady!"

After saying that, he was about to call someone over.

After standing firmly, Cecilia broke free from Jonathan's grip and wrapped his arm back behind him. Then, she pressed his face against the table.

If it were not for the gown that caused her to have difficulty in making big movements, Cecilia would have thrown Jonathan over his shoulder and made him land on his face! She was the focus of attention after all. After making such a big noise, more people looked at her.
