GoodRead"It's okay. That won't cost much. I'll just buy it for you." Alexander thought Scarlett was embarrassed, so he hastened to add those words.
Scarlett tilted her head and gave him a look. "You just did one thing wrong and you have apologized to me. Just buyone handbag, and that's enough. I'll buy the other one myself." Scarlett said, grunting. "Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to explain to Ray either." Alexander felt speechless.
He saw Scarlett show PDA in front of him for no reason.
Alexander didn't dare to insist any more. He withdrew his gaze. Looking at the auctioneer in front of him, he planned to offer a high price as soon as the handbag was presented.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe reserve price of this handbag was one million eight hundred thousand dollars. He directly offered to give two and a half million dollars at that time. He raised the price by seven hundred thousand dollars in one go. Even if someone wanted to make a bid, one would have to think about it first.
However, Alexander underestimated the attractiveness of the handbag to women. Although he offered 2.5 million dollars, he didn’t expect anyone to raise the price. And that person raised the price to 2.6 million dollars.
Alexander frowned for a moment and shouted directly, "Three million dollars." Scarlett, who was sitting next to Alexander, moved a little. She looked at the bidder who was not far away.
Coincidentally, the woman who was fighting with Alexander to buy the handbag was actually the one Scarlett had caught them bad-mouthing her at the hotel at noon today.
The auctioneer had already called for the second time. Just as the auctioneer was about to call a third time, the woman raised her bidding paddle again.
The auctioneer stopped the hammer that he was about to raise for the third time. " Three million one hundred thousand dollars. The lady is bidding three million one hundred thousand dollars." Alexander was unwilling to wait any longer. Then, he raised his hand and was ready to raise his bid to three and a half million dollars. He was held down by Scarlett before he could raise his bidding paddle.
Alexander froze for a moment. "What's wrong? Three million dollars is that much. | can afford it." Scarlett tsked. "Mr. Smith, you're so damn rich. A handbag only cost a million and a half dollars when it went on sale for the first time. Now, this handbag is out of print. It's being auctioned for one million eight hundred thousand dollars. And its price is already very high at two and a half million dollars. Now, the price has been raised to three million dollars. If you keep raising the bid price, you'll lose a million dollars." And the price of the handbag wasn't worth 3.5 million dollars.
"It's all right. | buy a handbag to make you happy. | said I'd hit the bid for you. Even if it's offered for 30 million dollars, I'll hit the bid for you." Scarlett was amused by Alexander. "Mr. Smith, you want to be a fool, but | don't want to." If she spent 3.5 million dollars on a handbag and wanted to sell it later, she didn't know if she could sell it for 2 million dollars.
Scarlett was used to being a businesswoman. Although she wanted to surprise Alexis to make her happy, even if she wanted to, that didn't mean she was going to be a fool.
"Don't you like it? " "| prefer money.” As the two of them spoke, the auctioneer had already closed the deal. The handbag was sold to the woman.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlexander wanted to raise his bid price again, but he could do nothing about it.
"It's sold." Scarlett pointed to the other handbag." Then you can bid for this one for me." "Okay. Don't worry. No matter how much this handbag costs, I'll get it for you!" Alexander knew that a designer handbag could make a woman put all worries behind her. And he sincerely wanted to apologize to Scarlett, so no matter how much he paid for the handbag, he didn't care.
Scarlett looked at Alexander with a halfsmile. "Mr. Smith, is that what do you do when you negotiate with your business partners?" Scarlett thought, 'If that's the case, isn't the Sunrigal Corporation going bankrupt? "It's not the same. Going to an auction is about buying items that you like. One should spend the money after earning it. Don't worry. Though I'm not as rich as Ray, | still can spend millions of dollars to buy a handbag." Alexander thought Scarlett might have smisunderstanding about his wealth. He thought, 'Does | usually look too stingy?” After thinking about it, Alexander took out his phone and operated it for a while before handing it to Scarlett.
"This is the balance of the bank card | use a lot." Scarlett was also a bit overwhelmed by Alexander's behavior.
She froze for a second. "Mr. Smith, what do you mean by that?" "Don't worry. I'm not short of money." Scarlett finally knew why Ray liked being friends with Alexander so much.
Alexander did seem to make sense when he was being seriously stupid.
