"How can the heir to Sunrigal be short of money?” "So don't worry. Any of the cars in my garage can be exchanged for a few of bags like this." Scarlett laughed. "Alexander, did Raymond say that it's quite easy to cheat you out of your money?" Alexander was stunned for a moment." Then what are you going to do?" "Let's wait and see." The bag was being auctioned.
The reserve price was 1.5 million dollars. As soon as it was brought out, speople raised their paddles, but they still bid 1.5 million dollars.
Probably because not many people were competing for it and they didn't quickly raise the price, more and more people raised their paddles.

Scarlett thought for a while and said, "We can pay 2 to 2.2 million dollars for it. Stop bidding if the price is higher than that." Alexander feared that Scarlett would say that he was stupid, so he didn't raise his paddle in a hurry and obediently followed the process.
As the price reached 2 million dollars, only a woman was bidding against him.
Alexander finally bought the bag for 2.3 million dollars. After the hammer cdown, he subconsciously looked at Scarlett. "The bag is worth the price, right?" Scarlett chuckled. "I'm not the one who will pay for the loss anyway." Alexander touched his nose with embarrassment. It sounded as if he were a rich fool.
Since they got the bag, they didn't pay attention to other items at the auction.
Alexander asked Scarlett a lot about Raymond's life abroad. Scarlett answered one by one.
"He lost his memory. Then how did he get to know you?" Scarlett froze. She was surprised that Alexander asked such a good question.
Scarlett recalled that Raymond whispered " erotic dreams" in her ear that day. That made her feel awkward.

Alexander looked at her. "Did | say anything wrong?" "He's the sas before." "If so, how could he pay attention to you?" For the first time, Scarlett found that Alexander was smart. "I just told him my name. | didn't pester him." Alexander stared at Scarlett for a while. " Then you're just his type." Scarlett raised her eyebrows. "I'm lucky. Alexander remembered the past and tutted. "Well, after Raymond and you got married, | asked him if he liked you. Do you know what he said?" Scarlett didn't know what Raymond had thought during the three years of their marriage. She didn't have the opportunity to know it.
Alexander was close to Raymond. She thought Raymond might have mentioned her to Alexander.
Scarlett was interested, blinking. "What did he say?" "He said that you are good-looking but too ambitious." Scarlett knew it was not praise.
Seeing her fall silent, Alexander was worried that he had inadvertently cast in a bone between Scarlett and Raymond. Thus, Alexander hurriedly added, "Don't be angry. Raymond is just too proud. He is sometimes unwilling to tell his true feelings. | can see that in those three years, he had feelings for you. Otherwise, he wouldn't have let you stay in the Shaw Residence for so long. Yet he is very stubborn. If you hadn't divorced him, | think he would play it cool for a decade." Scarlett raised her eyebrows. "How do you know this?"
