Chapter 27 He Won It
The crowd exclaimed in astonishment. Osborne’s bid of ten million dollars shocked Wesley and those big shots in Mayby
City.
That was ten million dollars, not one thousand dollars!
Even a wealthy family like the Caldwell family only had about 100 or 200 million dollars in cash, and most wealthy families would be reluctant to give out 10 million dollars for charity.
However, Osborne, an ordinary person, calmly bid ten million dollars.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Even Clarissa, who was sitting at the front, couldn’t help but turn her head slightly to glance at Osborne.
Wesley was dumbfounded. His eyes were bloodshot, and he was utterly enraged. He immediately wanted to raise the bidding peddle to retort to Osborne.
But suddenly, Ophelia stopped him.
She said, “Wesley, forget it!
“In fact, Osborne extorted 20 million dollars from my family not long ago. It’s too embarrassing, so I didn’t tell you this.

“Osborne has gone crazy. If you continue to pit against him, he will definitely spend all the 20 million dollars. I know you don’t care about the money, but there’s no need to do that for a worthless painting.”
Ophelia’s words calmed Wesley down.
He had money, but was it really necessary to spend more than 20 million dollars to buy a useless painting just to surpass Osborne?
Many people would probably think he was a fool.
After figuring it out, Wesley snorted coldly, “Osborne, just wait and see! The crappy painting is yours. Only a fool like you would spend ten million dollars to buy such a painting.”
After saying that, he sat down.
Osborne sneered, “You are really shameless. The way you defeat is unique. Loser.”
“Fuck you!”

Wesley clenched his fists angrily, but in the end, he suppressed his anger and dared not cause trouble.

Everyone was looking forward to it.
Ophelia spent one million dollars to buy two items, and she was looking forward to the result.
Debbe finally spoke.
“Thank you all for your generosity and support for charity. Now, I announce that the mysterious item provided by Ms. Radcliffe
is…
“Wait a moment. I’ll reveal it later.”

friends.

“You are welcome to put forward your views.”
Everyone was impatient, but they dared not urge Debbe, so they could only respond.
“For Ms. Radcliffe’s safety, it’s necessary.”
“Ms. Radcliffe even allows the person to bring two friends. She is so considerate.”
“Reveal the answer quickly.”
