I didnt look at Fabians expression .
I hastily finished my milk , grabbed my bag , and left .

Isnt he married ? This is cheating , isnt it ? You dont know , their marriage is just a business alliance .
His real love is with his little sweetheart .
If only she had a better background than that woman … Yeah , that woman broke them up .
She doesnt dare to show her face now .
I lowered my head as I listened to the whispers .
I was the one who ruined Fabian and Julies so called great love .
I couldnt help but let out a self deprecating laugh as I dialed my dads number .
Dad , I cant take it anymore .

No one else bid , and the bracelet was sold to Fabian .
As he had done before , Fabian placed the bracelet on Julies wrist , lifting her hand high as if he had won a battle .
I felt numb .

voice .
Palma , are you really going to divorce me ? The room fell silent instantly .
People started whispering , and Julies smile quickly faded .
This was the first time Fabian had publicly acknowledged me .
I smiled softly , my tone calm .
Mr.
Lyon , please dont interrupt my work .
With that , I continued my presentation .
The crowd had lost interest in the auction , their eyes darting between me and Fabian .
For every item I introduced , Fabian bid five times the starting price , creating a stir in the audience .
Julies face darkened even further with each bid .
Finally , we reached the last item : a diamond brooch .
The bid started at one million dollars , and Fabian bid 10 million dollars , sealing the deal .
He walked up to the stage , picked up the brooch , and pinned it to my collar .
Palma , stop pretending .
You just wanted me to publicly acknowledge you .
Now youve succeeded .
He patted my shoulder before turning to leave .
Julies cold , venomous glare was fixed on me as she hurried after Fabian .
