Goodbye, My Love

The auction went on smoothly after the first sale was closed. All the other items Loraine donated were wheeled in one after the other. Each of them was sold for at least two times its normal price. The bidders tried their best to please Marco.

All the items Loraine donated were sold out. At this moment, other items were wheeled out one after the other.

Curran’s eyes lit up. He rubbed his palms together, getting ready for action.

As an antique collector, he came to the auction to collect valuable items. He itched to have a go as the auction progressed.

A rosewood walking stick caught Curran’s fancy as soon as it was brought out.

It was a sight to behold. The walking stick was carved exquisitely and its head was plated with gold. The redwood shone as if it had been polished with the finest of wood. It was clear that it was of high quality.

“Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars!”

Loraine and Curran placed a bid at the same time.

Loraine hadn’t forgotten the main purpose of this auction. She was here to buy gifts for her family.

She knew that this walking stick was a rare one.

It wasn’t that heavy but highly durable. She could picture her grandpa using it to support himself.

With this thought in mind, Loraine didn’t hesitate to bid for it.

Curran wanted the walking stick so badly. But once he reasoned that

Marco would be displeased if he took it, he didn’t make a higher offer.

The two of them took interest in a small Roman statue shortly after.

Again, Curran gave it up.

But when they took interest in the same item for the third time, Curran became pissed.

“Miss Torres, are you doing this on purpose? How come you are interested in all the items I want?”

Loraine turned a deaf ear to him. Sensing the budding conflict, Vickie seized the opportunity to fan the fire.

“Honey, you shouldn’t lose three times in a row. I think Loraine is going against you because she has someone to support her. Don’t let this slide.”

As those words settled in Curran’s head, he stared at Loraine gloomily.

He decided to teach this arrogant woman a lesson.
