Chapter 1047 Bringing A Gift To Yvonne (1/2)

”Yvonne, since you like the Equinox Flower's Pistil so much, let's just outbid everyone for it. Don't worry. Although we have only recently returned home, we will never be bullied by others by any means. Don't be afraid. Whatever you want, Father and I will do anything within our power to get it for you!”

Louis thought that the reason why Emily wanted to give up on bidding on the Equinox Flower's Pistil was that Jacob's appearance at the auction had reminded her of some unpleasant things in their past. Believing that, he lowered his eyes and gently patted Emily on her shoulder with his warm and strong hand. His soft eyes sparkled reassuringly and they were as clear as the stars. Hearing Louis's words, Emily suddenly felt at peace once more.

After comforting Emily, Louis wanted to continue to raise his numbered board to counter-bid on the Equinox Flower's Pistil. The hostess of the auction looked at the bidding parties from the platform and sensed the fight brewing between the two groups, so she stood there with an awkward expression. She didn't know whether she should declare that Darren had won the auction or wait for Louis to continue bidding.

After all, the Ke Group was the organizer of this auction, so none of the staff dared to raise any objections. They knew clearly that there were many people in the fast-paced bidding industry who wanted to see them make a grievous mistake such as underbidding a sale, so she was alert enough not to fall into this trap.

”No, it's not like that! Louis, I just lost interest in it all of a sudden,”

Emily said with a firm and decisive voice as she nodded her head gently. She held Louis's hand with gratitude, for she knew that Louis had wanted to fight for her, so she felt a tinge of warmth in her heart.

Turning to the platform, Emily signaled to the hostess of the auction and silently shook her head, declining further bidding, with her lips slightly pursed.

Hunk, who was sitting by Emily's side, lowered his eyes and took a long look at Emily. He could see her resolution on the matter. Then, he took a meaningful look at Darren and raised his hand to stop Louis from bidding further.

Obviously, Hunk was hinting to Louis that he agreed with Emily's request to stop.

After Louis stopped bidding, Jacob, who had been eager to compete with Darren, also reluctantly gave up with his lips curled up mysteriously, as if everything had been settled between them, and then he too put down his bidding card.

”Okay. Twenty million once! Twenty million twice! Twenty million thrice! Sold to Mr. Darren!”

After the hostess of the auction hit the gavel, she set down the hammer, and Dina, who was sitting next to Darren, arched her eyebrows with pride. With her red lips curled up victoriously, a coquettish smile flashed on her beautiful face. She gently leaned against Da
