Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect

Chapter 153

Irene's eyes sparkled with a touch of longing as she said, "Tm just thinking if Nathan tossed me that EverPeak contract, we'd be joined at the hip. working together."

Yonas kept his peace, his focus drifting elsewhere. He set his bidding paddle down, barely registering the items up for auction-except for that purple diamond, now Irene's new treasure.

He recalled the time he'd bid on a pink diamond, a masterpiece by the same artist, which he'd given to Yasmine, while Morgan had walked away empty-handed.

The penultimate item, a painting, had been swiftly claimed by Xavier for a cool 20 million. But the grand finale was a stunner: an antique golden crown encrusted with jewels and exquisite craftsmanship.

The auctioneer's pitch was enticing. "Solid gold, adorned with over four hundred precious gems. The starting bid of 38 million was a mere pittance for such a rare gem, even in the exclusive Sayaka Club,

As the bidding began, the price skyrocketed. This was no ordinary crown; it was a historical gem, its age only adding to its mystique.

Already victorious in her previous bids, Irene couldn't resist the allure of this final item. "165 million, she declared, a bid that made the auctioneer blink in surprise.

The worth of a priceless crown in the museum hit a staggering 335 million dollars. Irene thought there was room to drive the auction price even higher, and no one seemed to outbid the last offer. crown resting on her head

In her mind, she was already envisioning herself walking down the aisle toward Yonas with this en

But then, Yonas raised his paddle. "300 million," he said, his voice resonating through the room. Ahush fell over the crowd as Yonas made a staggering leap in the bidding, leaving everyone, including the auctioneer, speechless. Irene's jaw dropped, but no sound escaped her lips. She had a feeling that the crown, regardless of the outcome, was meant to be hers.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

The crown's significance was not lost on the audience. Yonas had been a silent bidder all night, but his voice carried the weight of the Russell family. a force no one could contend with

Just when it seemned Yonas had secured the crown, Morgan threw a wrench in the works. "800 million," he said, a sly grin spreading across his face.

The Sanchez family's unexpected challenge was a shock to everyone. It was no secret that Yasmine had been linked to Yonas, but now Irene was by his side, and Yasmine had returned to her family.

The truth was out. Yasmine was a true blue-blood

Helen's envy was palpable. Irene had already bagged the purple diamond, and now the crown Helen covered was slipping away. She knew Xavier wouldn't part with his fortune for her. The crown seemed destined for Irene, but Helen was puzzled by Morgan's challenge to Yonas.

She shook her head, astonished by Morgan's audacity to challenge the Russell family. Yonas was clearly bidding for Irene, and this move would leave a lasting impact on both families. But then,

just as a bidding war seemed imminent, Yonas sealed the deal with 663 million and Morgan stepped back.

Then Yonas claimed the crown for a staggering 665 million in the end. Without Morgan's interference, he might have saved that extra 165 million. Morgan turned to Yasmine with a smirk and said, "Making him sweat a bit can't hurt Yonas was no fool, he was well aware of Morgan's tactics, but he was willing to pay the price to secure his prize,

As the auction came to a close, Helen accidentally bumped into Yoselin and realized she'd truly lost her marbles. Tricked before, Helen now saw Yoselin for what she was a hopeless case, hiding behind Yasmine, her eyes darting nervously. With a sly smile, Helen recorded Yoshi's frazzled state on her phone, ready to use it as ammunition later.

Aa Yaumine and Morgan prepared to leave, Irene intercepted Yasmine, handing her a business card. "Ms. Sanchez, if you ever need assistance with Yoselia and can't reach Yonas, feel free to call me. I'm here for the long haul and I'm genuinely concerned about Yoselim" Yasmine accepted the card with an awkward smile.

Morgan pulled up to the curb, guided Yasmine into the car, and tossed trene's card back. "Ms. White, Yasmine won't be needing your help. If there's an issue with Yoselin. I'll be the one to contact Yasmine."

Turning to Yonas, he added, "By the way, about Yoselin's kitchen knife incident, Yasmine was injured. Don't forget to cover the medical bills and emotional damages, Mr. Russell. A man of your stature won't haggle over the compensation. My company account will suffice." "Injured? Where?" Yonas frowned, his gaze intense as he examined Yastnine. His eyes, cold and piercing, seemed to notice every detail, even the

strands of Yasmine's hair.

"Not your concern. We won't keep you. Goodbye, Mr. Russell, Ms. White," Morgan replied, his tone clipped.

Yonas watched Yasmine leave, his eyes filled with a mix of confusion and longing. As he slid into the car, Irene joined him in the backseat, and the driver headed towards the Russell Group building.

Irene didn't mention the crown; she was confident it was as good as hers. Instead, she showed Yonas a photo of Yasmine and Xavier on her phone. "Look at them. They're a match made in heaven. What went wrong?" she mused, her words hanging in the air for Yonas to ponder.

Yonas met Irene's gaze in the rearview mirror. "You don't know?"

"I know, of course," Irene replied, her voice heavy with the weight of secrets. "It's just a shame. That's all From the moment she decided to return. she'd left no stone unturned, uncovering every detail about Yonas's world, Yonas a

gave a slow nod or two and said. "Then you should know it wasn't her fault.

"I never said it was her fault, Irene countered, her voice softening. "She's just been unlucky in love. That's all."

But then, a smile played on her lips as she said, Though it seems Xavier's got his eye on her again.

"It's her business." Yonas said, his voice firm.

Irene fell silent, her gaze steady on Yonas. The crown was a foregone conclusion; it would either grace her or Yasmine's head.

Xavier rode back in silence, lost in his own thoughts.

Helen showed Yvette the video she'd taken, whispering, "Yvette, Yoselin's lost her mind. I always had my suspicions, but now it's clear as day." Yvette seized the chance to ask, "Yoselin's therapist is Ms. Sanchez, right? She's been at it for ages, and there's still no progress?"

"Exactly" Helen scoffed. I've always said she's all talk and no walk. Can't even help Yoselin, and she wants to be a psychology consultant at school?

Please!

Yvette pressed on. "Aurelith University doesn't tolerate amateurs. Ms. Sanchez must have the theory down pat. She just needs some practice. I'm Just curious. With so many renowned therapists out there, why did Mr. Russell pick her?" Helen's eyerol

up with realization as she said, "I'm going to expose

her! She's a fake!"

Xavier finally broke his silence. "Helen, have you forgotten Grandpa's words?"

"I haven't forgotten, bro, but why do you always back Yasmine, not me?" Helen clenched her fists, frustration written all over her face.
