Chapter 354

That diamond, Ashley actually won it.
Even though Ethan had mentally prepared himself, he was still pretty floored when he heard the final result.
It wasn’t until the auction event officially ended and Ashley and Mandy left to finalize the paperwork that he finally snapped out of it and messaged Chase: Ashley spent 1.8 billion on the diamond…]
Chase: [Hm]
Ethan:…”
Something so unbelievably huge, and all he could manage was a casual ‘Hm’?
And another thing…
【What was with that period you just sent me?】
Chase must’ve been busy; his reply came after a moment:”Means you should stop gossiping.
Ethan:”…”
He was just that surprised, wasn’t he?
After all, perhaps to prove she hadn’t schemed to marry Chase just for his money, Ashley had always seemed to dress quite modestly during their marriage.
Vivian and Yonnie were also stunned by Ashley’s lavish spending, and it took them a good while to recover.
Vivian only snapped back to reality when Jeffery got up to leave and greeted her.
Just then, Yonnie seemed to remember something and suddenly said, “That diamond, Ashley must have bid on it for her, right?”
The ‘her’ wasn’t explicitly named by Yonnie, but Vivian knew she was talking about Lucy.
Because they both knew Lucy adored diamonds, and Lucy herself had owned a valuable one back in the day.
But that diamond later…
Thinking back on the past, Vivian cast her eyes down.
After Ashley and Mandy finished the paperwork, they were about to leave.
After witnessing Ashley’s lavish spending, quite a few people wanted to get acquainted with her.
Besides Ethan, Jeffery, and Vivian, there were others at the event who already knew Ashley.
While Ashley was handling the paperwork, many people had already figured out her true background.
For instance, they knew she came from a rather ordinary background, and that she now seemed to be Tim’s girlfriend.
Tim’s family was already well-off, and with Eternal’s current booming success, he was now the new elite in their circle that everyone flocked to, as well as a prime son-in-law candidate for many socialite mothers.
Upon learning Ashley had only acquired that diamond thanks to Tim, many who had initially wanted to connect with her suddenly backed off.
However, those who had worked with Eternal, or wanted to build a good relationship with Tim, still proactively approached Ashley to get acquainted.
Ashley was well aware of everyone’s true intentions.
After she exchanged a few pleasantries, she found an excuse to leave.
Many members of the Holden and Mond Families were actually very interested in the diamond at today’s auction event. They all really wanted to see its splendor with their own eyes.
But there was only one invitation, so they couldn’t go.
Seeing Yonnie and Vivian return, Catherine quickly asked, “Vivian, who bought the diamond? What was the final price?”
When Catherine spoke, Tanya, Mary, and the others all looked towards Vivian.
