Chapter 19 The Auction
“Thanks,” (hana said with a smile, taking the glass of water

Lately, Benjamin had been hovering around her, and it was pretty clear what he was thinking
Diana didn’t call him out on it and just let his daydream
But she was still very aware that she was a married woman. Other than the usual daily interactions, she would firmly turn down any invites for meals or other soli activities.
Dana, to celebrate you fixing this painting, how about dienen tonight? My treat,” Benjamin asked again, not giving up.
This was the fiftieth time Benjamin had asked her out alone, and it was also the fiftieth time Diana had turned him down.
“No, 1 need to go home and have dinner with my family,” Diana replied with a faint smile,
“Diana, are you going to be with your husband?” Benjanin asked, looking disppointed.
Diana x smile faltered for a moment. The family she mentioned was actually Sophia.
But since she and Howard were married, calling him family was also correct, though mainly she was going to have dinner with Sophia.
Recently, Sophia had been in a good mood and her health was improving, which finally put Diana at ease.
“Mc Getty” At that moment, Joshua walked over happily and said, “Mr. Martin is holding an auction in three days. Are you interested in checking it out?”
“Martion?” Diana caught on quickly. That painting is going to be auctioned, right?”
“Yes.” Joshua nodded. “Mr. Martin will send someone to pick up the painting tomorrow.”
“Alright, I happen to want to see what good items are at Mr. Martin’s auction,” Diana said with a light smile.
“Okay, I’ll make the arrangements,” Joshua said, then turned and left.
Diana didn’t pay any mind to Benjamin’s longing gate. After saying goodbye to him, she quickly walked out of the store and headed towards the Bentley parked by the roadside.
Ever since Howard found out she occasionally worked here, he would come to pick her up every time she was in the area
As soon as Diana got in the car, it sped away.
“There’s an auction at Heritage Auctions in three days. You’re coming with me,” Howard said flatly.
Heritage Auctions? What a coincidence? Diana couldn’t help but think.
Not hearing a response from Diana for a while, Howard glanced at her in surprise,
“What? You don’t want to go?” Howard asked coldly.
“Not trally…” Diana replied.
“Grandma asked me to take you,” Howard interrupted Diana.
Diana felt it was necessary to emphasize that it was Sophia’s order. Somehow, she felt a lamp in her chest, and it was uncomfortable not to say it out lood
She said, “I was pl

Diana pursed her lips and turned to look at the s
street scene flying by outside the car window, saying nothing.
His firm words left no room for refusal.
So, the Bentley stopped in front of a baxuriously decorated styling shop,
Diana came back to her series, blinked, and looked at Howard with a puzzled expression.
Howard got out of the car expressionlessly and then pulled Diana out
He looked Diana up and down, his eyes full of obvious disdain. “If you go to the auction looking like this, I’m afraid they II throw you out thinking you re
Hearing that, Diana thought, What’s wrong with my outfit? A white shirt and casual pants–convenient, clean, and comfortable, but Howard still complains. Besides, I am just going to the auction to see, not to socialize, so why dress so extravagantly!
Ignoring Diana’s thoughts, Howard dragged her into the styling shop, introduced her to a stylist, and had her completely made over from head to toe
Two hours later, Diana stared at her reflection in the mirror, barely recognizing herself.
Besides her hair, Howard had picked out a purple tulle dress adorned with pearls for her. Wearing pure and enchanting, making her stand out..
Howard watched Diana posing in front of the minor, a hint of amazement flashing in his en
From the first time they met. Howard knew Diana was beautiful.
He had seen many beautiful women, but a woman as stunning and unique as Diana was a first.
is dress, paired with pearl jewelry, Diana looked both
Back at the Spencer Villa, Sophia couldn’t stop praising the dress and even complimented Howard’s taste.
Hearing this, Diana just smiled gently.
Since she was going to the auction with Howard, Diana couldn’t go with Joshua
When Benjamin heard this, his disappointment was obvious. He had been hoping to use this opportunity to pursue Diana,
Joshua patted Benjamin’s shoulder helplessly and said softly, “Benjamin, you should give up. Ms. Getty is already married, don’t waste your time on her.
Not Lots of people get divorced because they don’t get along. And I think Diana’s husband is pretty indifferent to her, they don’t look like a couple, so i still have a chance,” Benjamin said stubbornly.
Undoubtedly. Benjamin was quite perceptive at times.
Sering that he couldn’t persuade him, Joshua could only sigh helplessly.
Benjamin was too stubborn, hopefully, he wouldn’t get too hurt in the future.
Three days later, Diana showed up at the Heritage Auctions in the purple tulle dress adorned with pearls, alongside Howard
As soon as Diana made her appearance, she instantly attracted everyone’s attention.
Joshua and Benjamin had arrived at the venue before Diana. Seeing the stunning Diana, Benjamin’s admiration almost overflowed.
Diana kept her eyes straight ahead, ignoring the amazed, jealous, and admiring gazes from the crowd, and followed Howard into a VIP room
As soon as they sat down, the host announced the official start of the auction.
This auction was unprecedented, with countless rare items on display, truly living up to Heritage Auctions reputation.
Diana watched the rare items being auctioned off one by one with great interest, pondering whether to bid on a piece of jewelry for Sophia.
“Didn’t see anything you like?” Howard asked beside her.
Since earlier, Howard’s gaze had been fixed on Diana. Under the enchanting lights of the auction, Diana’s delicate face was hard to look away from
Howard noticed the changing expressions on Diana’s face, indicating her interest in many of the displayed items, yet she hadn’t bid on anything
If Diana liked something, he wouldnt mind helping her bid on it and giving it to
