Chapter 82
The main gemstone was ten carats, with additional diamonds of over one carat each as accents. A style worthy of collection.
Nina glanced back and caught Miranda's gaze, noticing the smirk and subtle challenge in her eyes. Indeed, Miranda, had every reason to flaunt.
After marrying into the York family, Nina couldn't recall a single occasion when Sally had bought her anything.
Finally, Sally bid six million without any hesitation. The gemstone was placed in front of Miranda. With so many people watching, it gave Miranda plenty of fa Nina had never seen him so determined before. She couldn't help but look over and saw it was
a green emerald bracelet.
The bracelet was crystal clear, emitting a green light, extremely rare.
This was a charity auction, so the starting price had to be lower than the market price, but how high the bidding would go depended on competitiveness. "Fourteen million!"
"Twenty million!" Nash shouted.
This immediately caused a stir among those present. The person who had been bidding against Nash didn't continue bidding-
The auctioneer tapped the gavel and said cheerfully, "Congratulations to Mr. York for winning this item with twenty million!" Applause erupted.
The green emerald bracelet was now in Nash's hands.
Nina was surprised. When the green emerald bracelet was in Nash's hands, she saw the satisfaction and reassurance in his eyes. Perhaps he really liked it. However, she had never seen him collect emerald before.
After the event, Sally pulled Miranda's hand and intentionally said, "Miranda, you saw it. Nash won the emerald bracelet. You just mentioned before the auction that you liked this bracelet, and he bought it. It shows that he still values you."
Miranda was slightly pleased and admitted, "I didn't expect him to bid such a high price."ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Nina heard this and smiled bitterly. So that's how it was.
It was Miranda who liked it.
She had thought Nash suddenly developed a liking for emerald.
After the event ended completely, the guests dispersed, and Yvonne bid her farewell. Nina escorted her out, then was called by Quincy, "Nina, Mr. York wants to see you inside, he said there's something urgent."
"Oh." Nina responded and hurriedly went in.
At this moment, both Sally and Miranda were present.
Miranda's eyes glanced at Nash with a hint of expectation, but her gaze was fixed on the box placed on the table.

ce, making her very happy. "It's so beautiful, Sally, you have such good taste."
Sally's indulgent look: "As long as you like it, everything is worth it.”
As Miranda held it, bystanders looked on with envy, and one person quickly remarked, " Miranda seems to be quite favored by Sally, treating her like her daughter."
"Her daughter? Clearly, she's being treated like her daughter-in-law."
"But didn't Nash mention he's married? How could she be her daughter-in-law?"
"Well, Nash hasn't revealed who his wife is. Sally publicly stated that Miranda is the future daughter-in-law. It's quite complicated. Miranda aims to enter the entertainment industry, and she relies heavily on Nash's assistance. Their relationship appears somewhat unusual. Unless Nash's wife appears, Sally won't know for sure if Miranda is the one. Don't you "You're right. Based on what we see, the probability of Miranda is quite high!"
Nina overheard this idle gossip.
The auction was coming to a close, and the final item was presented. Nina hadn't paid attention until Nash called out, "Three million!"
"Four million!"
Someone else countered his bid.
Nash declared directly, "Ten million!"
This bidding was several times higher.
The other party didn't back down either, shouting, "Eleven million!"
Nash immediately countered, "Twelve million!"
