Tangled in His Obsession (Seraphina)

Chapter 344

This ruby ring was his New Year’s gift to Sandra.

Back then, she had a spat with him over Tania and some other stuff, seemed to have made up her mind to leave

him and went to Velvetwood alone. After not seeing him for a long time, she returned to Sunburst City for the

wedding of Seraphina and Leandro.

Eventually, they patched things up, and on Valentine’s Day, he gave her this ruby ring

She was really over the moon then, even though she always said she had no occasion to wear it, her eyes were full

of joy.

In fact, she really had no opportunity to wear such a ring, and later, the ring was often left in the drawer of her

vanity.

But now, the ring has appeared at the auction.

Seraphina held the ring box in her hand, showing the pure and clear ruby to the HD camera on the spot, her smile

was elegant and composed.

Such a ring with large carats is a treasure in itself, plus it was brought out by Seraphina herself, so the atmosphere

on the scene boiled up again.

*600,000!”

“650,000!”

“700,000!”

“800,000!”

People were bidding fiercely, and in a blink of an eye, the bidding had exceeded one million.

“Is this ring really worth that much?” Tania whispered, “It’s not just because Seraphina brought it out, and these

people are blindly bidding, right?”

Bowen lit a cigarette without answering.

In fact, of course, it’s worth the price.

He originally bought this ring for 1.7 million, and the current bid is far from its actual value.

But soon, the bidding broke through 2 million.

After 2 million, there were obviously fewer bidders.

After 2.5 million, only two people were bidding.

“2.7 million!”

“Mr. Benjamin Morton bids 2.7 million.” The host announced, “Any higher bids?”

There was no bid for a while, and all eyes turned to where Benjamin was.

Bowen also glanced back.

Benjamin was sitting way back, obviously showing his low status in Sunburst City, but when Bowen saw the man

clearly, he immediately recognized him.

He was a billionaire he had met, originally named Bob Morton, but after making his fortune he changed his name to

Benjamin. Despite changing his name, he was still very vulgar, liked to show off his money and power. The woman

next to him was heavily made up. Her already very exaggerated figure paired with a flashy low-cut evening dress

made people uncomfortable to look at.

When she heard Benjamin’s bid, she couldn’t help but grin happily. In public, in front of everyone, she kept moving

closer to Benjamin, her actions were very ambiguous.

“What kind of person is it?” Tania muttered quietly, “It’s disgusting.”

Bowen silently turned his head back, his gaze falling back on the stage.

“2.7 million for the first time!”

“2.7 million for the second time!”

“2.7 million for the third time!”

Just as the host was about to strike the hammer, Bowen suddenly raised his hand and said lightly, “3 million.”

‘Mr. Bowen bids 3 million! Can anyone bid higher than 3 million?” The host shouted excitedly.

Some people looked at Bowen, some at Benjamin, they were all expectant, seemingly wanting to see a good show.

Benjamin, with his high bid just now, had repeatedly defeated his opponents. But just when he was about to win,

Bowen’s challenge suddenly appeared, which troubled him, so his face reddened a bit. He thought to himself, 3

million is not a huge number, he was about to raise the price again, but suddenly realized that this 3 million is just

for buying a ring.

He hesitated for a moment, thinking that he had already had the opportunity to show off his wealth in front of

Seraphina, why bother to waste that 3 million to really buy the ring?

So, Benjamin ignored the gazes around him and the coquetry of the woman beside him, and did not continue to

bid.

In the end, Bowen won the ring for 3 million…

Tania was both happy and distressed, and couldn’t help but say, “I don’t really like that ring that much, why did you

spend so much money to buy it?” Amidst the applause, Seraphina picked up her skirt and walked down from the

stage, smiling as she returned to her seat next to Bowen.

“Bowen, you’ve spent a lot of money this time.” Seraphina said.

Bowen smiled faintly and said slowly, “I’m doing good deeds, it doesn’t matter.”

“Right.” Seraphina said, “I’ll thank you on behalf of the blind first.”

Bowen took a puff of his cigarette, then turned to look at her again, “There’s another auction item on your auction

list that hasn’t been made public, what is it?”

“You’ll know in a while.” Seraphina said slowly, “But Bowen, you’ve already won two items tonight, give others a

chance to do charity.”

Bowen was about to say something, but looked up to see Leandro walking over slowly with Keen and a few staff

members.

Because the auction was in progress, Leandro walked over from the side aisle, but he still attracted most people’s

attention.

Most people came for him, seeing that half of the charity evening had passed, most people were a bit nervous.

Now seeing Leandro finally showing up, most people’s mood gradually settled down.

Leandro sat down next to Seraphina, those sitting at the same table were all his friends. As soon as he sat down,

Leandro was immediately teased by everyone.

“Your wife’s charity event, you show up just now, that’s inappropriate, right?” John Garcia joked.

“Not just inappropriate.” Edgar Lamont said, “Coming up when it’s almost over, neither the money nor the people

showed up, really stingy.”

Victor Farris couldn’t help but laugh. “That’s a good one. I should learn from it.”

Before Leandro could respond, Seraphina defended him. “Anyone who donates less than my husband tonight has

no right to complain about him!”

Upon hearing this, Leandro instinctively turned to look at her.

Edgar clearly wasn’t convinced. “Well, how much did your husband donate then?”

Seraphina hooked her arm around Leandro’s and said, “You’ll find out in a bit, won’t you?”

Leandro gave a wan smile, and turned his head to see Bowen’s expression.

“Mr. Reynolds, you seem to have been quite busy recently?” Bowen asked.

“I’m doing alright,” Leandro answered nonchalantly.

Bowen chuckled. “Being busy is good, keeps you occupied.”

Seraphina glanced at him, then told Leandro, “I won’t defend you against Bowen’s words. After all, he’s the biggest

donor tonight so far, having already donated 3.3

million!”

Hearing this, Leandro turned to Bowen, “Mr. Smith, you’re truly generous.”

Bowen’s lips still held a smile as he looked at Seraphina, “I’m waiting for your final auction item.”

“Don’t worry,” Seraphina replied with a smile, “I won’t disappoint you.”

Bowen shifted his gaze back to the stage, his eyes becoming more intense.

After seventeen rounds of auctioning, Seraphina once again tbok to the stage.

“Our final item tonight is a painting by the internationally renowned master, Malcom,” she said. “We all know of

Master Malcom’s skill, and his works are among the most influential and valuable in the contemporary art market.

In recent years, Mr. Malcom has been focusing on his research and hasn’t created any new works for five years.

Tonight, we bring you the latest work by Master Malcom – Romance in Bloom.”

As the red curtain on the stage’s painting frame slowly fell, it revealed a lifelike portrait of a young girl named

Farrah.
