The staff guided Jenna into the banquet hall. The charity auction was scheduled to start at 8:30 p.m., which was about two and a half hours away. It will be held in the conference hall on the second floor of the banquet hall. Until then, guests could eat and mingle around. The European-style long table in the banquet hall was filled with all sorts of wonderful food. Inside, the atmosphere was very lively. When Jenna stepped in through the main entrance, she immediately drew a lot of eyes in her direction. Part of it was because of her great beauty, the other was because she was Quinn's wife. She surveyed the banquet hall with a sweeping glance and immediately recognized the faces of several executives from other companies. She went to collect a glass of champagne before heading over to greet them. The executives were very polite with her, just as they would be with Quinn. Meanwhile, some of the noble ladies became bothered when they saw Jenna’s beautiful gown and b

Jenna found herself growing speechless. Nonetheless, she joined Jacob. Jacob clicked his tongue when he observed the flashy gown Jenna wore and commented, “Looks like Quinn isn’t with you. That’s the only way you would’ve gotten to dress up so beautifully.” “Even if he did come, I would still dress the same.” Jenna said with a scoff, “If I let him police what I can and cannot wear, I’ll only have a handful of outfits left.” Jacob responded with a thumbs up. “Now that’s a modern woman. I fully agree with everything you said!” Jenna noticed a plate of pistachios set on a table next to the chair. She grabbed a few and ate them. “What’s a doctor doing here?” “Weren’t you aware?” Jacob said with a raised eyebrow, “My dad was the one who found East Mill Pharmaceutical. Since he’s on a business trip, I’m here, in his place, to donate some money to the charity.” East Mill Pharmaceutical was the largest medical company in the country. They dominated the pharmaceutical marke

The person with the placard number twenty-two was sitting in the corner. It was a dimly lit section, and the people seated with the person obstructed Jenna’s sight. So she could not tell what the person looked like. “I think so.” Jenna glanced at the person before leaning back in the chair. “It's up to two hundred million. Are you still bidding?” “Of course! I bet he won’t raise it to three hundred million.” When the person who caught their attention kept upping the bid, Jacob was left interested. He decided to raise the bid again. Soon enough, the price of the Victorian crown had gone up to three hundred million. Once again, it broke the highest price record. Even the auctioneer's hand holding the hammer was beginning to tremble at the notion of such a tremendous price. “The bid is now at three hundred and ten million. Are there any other bidders?” At last, the final price was sealed with a thump of the hammer. “Congratulations to bidder number twenty-two!” After the

Carina was so angry she nearly threw her teacup at Quinn.“So what if I don’t have a boyfriend? I’m just being cautious!” Carina harrumphed. “I don’t want to end up like Jen, who has such a controlling husband like you who likes to make himself look pitiful, President Forester! It’s terrifying!”“Right?” Jacob agreed and said smilingly, “Doll, you said what I wanted to say.”He placed the peeled crab meat on Carina's plate, then wiped his fingers with a hot towel.“Jen baby, tell me if you ever divorce Quinn one day. I’ll marry you! I’m much more considerate than he is.”Quinn looked up at him and said darkly, “You want to die, don’t you?”“You can’t control his mouth—people will say whatever they want to say.” Carina sighed. “Look at you, President Forester. You’re not just controlling, but you also threaten people willy-nilly.”Jacob put one hand on Carina’s shoulder and sighed. “Do you see how much I suffer being friends with him?”“A lot. Indeed, a lot.” Carina pitied him b

Quinn was busy with work in the living area.Sam called him, “Sir, have you seen the news?”“Do you think I’m very idle?” Quinn frowned and said unhappily, “You can deal with it as you see fit.”“This is something I can’t handle myself. It’s about the missus.”The moment Sam was done speaking, Quinn immediately opened Twitter and flipped through the photos of Jenna on the red carpet of the charity auction last night.The photos were all high definition without any filters and were close-ups of Jenna’s face.Jenna looked good no matter from which angle the photos were taken.Quinn only realized when he got to the last few photos that the sequined dress Jenna had been wearing last night was backless and the snow-white skin of her back was exposed.A vein throbbed in Quinn’s forehead.He secretly saved those photos and then instructed Sam via text to deal with Jenna’s red carpet photos.Then, he reopened Twitter and continued scrolling, until he stumbled upon the photos that had
