Chasing the deck of her CHAPTER 70
I was not a pushover."Listen up. Lydia and I are sworn enemies from now on! If I fail to keep my word, I'll be smashed into bits like this bracelet." I gritted my teeth and opened my palm slowly.Kalus Mike was momentarily choked. He saw that my palms and the fragments of the jade bracelet were stained with blood.He realized that I liked to wear the bracelet. That is why I was holding it stubbornly in my hands even though it was broken. I probably did not even notice that my hand was injured.Kalus Mike had a turmoil of emotions within his heart. He gazed for a long time at my angry face. His eyes were dark, and a crack in his heart appeared to form."Ms. Kol! Your hands are bleeding!"Ryan shouted and rummaged through all his pockets to find a handkerchief or a tissue to use to bind my injury. But Ryan couldn't find any.Kalus Mike also had a handkerchief in his breast pocket. He closed his eyelids and clenched his fingers, but he found that he couldn't muster the courage to pull i

Zera pretended to be concerned and nervously asked, "Rose, what happened to your hand?""Rose, don't be afraid. Just tell us what happened. We won't let anyone bully you!" Bethany pretended to take justice for Lydia."I… I bumped into Ms. Kol in the bathroom…"Lydia faintly gasped in Kalus Mike's arms and resentfully looked at me. "I know Ms. Kol doesn't like me, so I made the first move to greet her and be nicer so that we can forget the past… But Ms. Kol wasn't receptive to my attempt. Somehow, we started quarreling."I crossed my arms, tilted my head to one side, and laughed.Mike Kalus raised his head and scowled when he saw my grinning face."When I attempted to make a break for it, Ms. Kol caught me and wouldn't release me… During a panic attack, I unintentionally yanked off her bracelet, which fell to the ground and broke. Ms. Kol was distressed that the bracelet broke and did not wish to hear my apology and thus…"Lydia stopped talking and left everybody to their own imaginati

I was a well-educated and refined young woman. I had been indulged by the Denz family, so these tactics were not required of me to have my way. Marriage and subsequent divorce from Kalus Mike provided me with all kinds of schemes swimming in my brain.I recalled how Kalus Mike's eyes fell apart when "The Flaming Heart" was walked onto the stage. At that moment, I felt like I went too far. I could have simply pretended not to see the necklace. Kalus Mike did not have to be publicly embarrassed to that extent by auctioning it.But I was petty and indignant. I wasn't indignant about the divorce. I resigned myself to my destiny, aware that the love for which I had been waiting for thirteen years was gone. I just seethed with anger because so bright a man as Kalus Mike couldn't see that the woman he loved was an evil woman."I've gone too far. I won't do this again."I ached and smiled bitterly. This was the last time I was ever going to side with Kalus Mike and Lydia's affair.The bathroo

This mysterious beauty was arrogant. She raised the bid price to astronomical levels."Mom, did I hear right?"Bethany was stunned. "Did that country bumpkin really bid $60 million? How could she do that? Is she faking it?"Zera remained silent, but her cold eyes rested on my back.Suddenly, Zera remembered something. She rolled her eyes and looked in the direction of Mila, who was Wyatt Denz’s second wife.Zera sneered and thought, ‘Does that bitch Amara think that she can marry into the Denz family? We’ll see about that!’“$70 million.”Kalus Mike opened his thin lips and raised his chiseled hand step by step. The sun was shining brightly on his good-looking face, and his face was shining brightly like a street light. A lot of women could not help but stop looking at him.He raised the price to a new level, so some bidders had no choice but to give up in frustration."$75 million."My face was still peaceful as I raised my paddle again without hesitation.Everyone was shocked.Ryan,

Mike's expression became somber. His lips were thin as he pondered, 'If Amara was willing to spend $9 million on this painting, $10 million is not a problem either. Amara backed off suddenly, not because she couldn't pay, but because she just gave up. She has done it intentionally!'But Kalus Mike had nothing to comment on it. After all, no one forced Lydia to respond to Amara's invitation to bid for this painting. Lydia did it on her own.I remained calm and did not bid on the other articles being auctioned.Kalus Mike was keen to bid only for the antique rosewood chair and thus he kept quiet.The second lot was two pieces of jadeite stones donated by Zera on behalf of Salvador Corporation. The initial bid was $2 million.I snorted in disdain and shook my head in derision. I would put money in the replica earlier than buy these two moronic stones. Only morons would buy these.Sure enough, there were practically no bidders. The auctioneer tried his best to drive the price up, but in t

My almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly. And then I rolled my eyes.Kalus Mike's handsome face darkened when he saw Ryan flirting with his former wife."Bro, was my performance just now good?"Ryan returned to his seat next to Kalus Mike with a wide grin and elbowed him lightly."Good."Kalus Mike glared at Ryan and added, "If you do that again, I will chop you to pieces.".Ryan looked glum. "Bro, what did I do this time? You're moodier than all my girlfriends combined!"Not long after, the first auction piece was unveiled on stage. It was a Renaissance painting of a landscape. It was ornate, but since the artist wasn't well-known, the bidding began at $1 million.Kalus Mike wasn't interested in historical artifacts, but he knew about them because of the presence of his grandfather. From the moment he saw it, he knew that this painting was identical to the one in his grandfather's studio.Joseph had owned the original painting, so this one here at the Platinum Auction House had to be

I did not wear a thick gown. Instead, I wore my own-designed black suit. I wore a yellow diamond brooch on my chest, created by the top jewel designer, Alexa. I proceeded confidently to my place, well-groomed and outstanding among the elite women.The elite women were mere indulged princesses, but I was an authoritative queen.When Lydia saw that the thorn on her side had now become the center of the spotlight, she was livid.Apart from that, other high-ranking ladies around me gazed at me in wonder and started gossiping about me."OMG! Who is she? She's so poised!""She's actually young. Otherwise, I would have believed that she's the CEO of some conglomerate. Her confidence is unbelievable!""Have you seen her brooch? That's the most intimate collection by Alexa, 'The Twilight God'! Three years back, someone sold it for $100 million. Alexa even scoffed at that price!" "The Twilight God?!"Everybody who's involved in the jewelry trade knows about the famous designer Alexa. Her work

Chapter 63I had my marriage license with me since I was always ready to finalize my divorce from Kalus Mike. On this occasion, the marriage license was proof that Dera Denz and Kalus Mike were married, and it left the crowd in shock.Shannon and Jean were speechless. After all, Dera Denz and Kalus Mike were still legally married at this time. What else could they say? They would just embarrass themselves more if they continued to talk."Now, everyone can judge for themselves who's the third wheel in our relationship."With that, I stashed the marriage license and walked away under the stunned gaze of everyone.Lydia was left behind, angry and embarrassed.The auction was starting in less than five minutes. All the distinguished guests were almost seated. Shannon and Bethany took a seat in the third row. Bethany's eyes were on Ryan from the moment they stepped through the door. "He's so handsome…" "The Hoffmans' charity event is too high-profile. I wasn't able to get them to seat u

The team of high-class women who were around Zera were shocked to hear me utter these words and gazed at Zera. They had no idea that this stunning woman standing before them was the ex-wife of Kalus Mike. They thought that I should hail from a very unique family. Otherwise, I would not have dared offend Zera like this openly.Zera was outraged. She tightened her teeth and snorted. "Hah! Amara, you're really different now that you've climbed to a higher branch. I never knew you were word-smart." I raised my stunning eyebrows and didn't care about Zera's scorn. "I'm just mimicking the way people talk to me. What does climbing have to do with it?"Zera turned red. She was dizzy with anger."Amara! Your mother is older than mine. Why are you so rude?!"" Seeing her mother being humiliated, Bethany rushed over immediately, her face flushed with anger and outrage.I laughed.Bethany had inherited her mother's smart mind but was certainly no more tactful than her mother. I had no desire to s
