Chapter 203 What exactly is Robert's identity?
Jocelyn returned the smile and whispered, "Yeah ......"
Having spent 50 million over its original value on this object, it is strange that Archie would not be
angry.
Immediately afterwards, a collection that Allie wanted was pushed up.
After a flurry of introductions by the auctioneer, the crowd began to raise their bids.
The starting price of 10 million was raised to 20 million.
Still with the raise becoming less, Jocelyn held up her sign, "Twenty-one million ......"
Many people have chosen to give up, and in the end, this collection, successfully, was pocketed by
Jocelyn.
Jocelyn was content.
Immediately afterwards, another item from the collection that Allie wanted, a 1950's F Country
Supreme sapphire necklace was pushed up ......
When the gemstone necklace was pushed onto the stage, the countless ladies in the audience, one
after another, were in awe.
This necklace, despite its age, still shines.
The chain part of the necklace, which is joined by a single round sapphire, is chased below by a big
sapphire in the shape of a teardrop of magnificent beauty.
Jocelyn was completely amazed by the necklace in front of her.
It is just too good to look at.
After carefully introducing the necklace, the auctioneer gave the starting price, 20 million ......
The people in the auction room began to scramble to raise their bids.
Jocelyn did not rush and chose to wait and see.
By the time the necklace had been bid up to fifty million, with few bids raised, Jocelyn raised her card
and offered fifty-one million.
After a small round of competition and a small increase in the price, Jocelyn finally won the necklace
for 55 million.
Jocelyn, who had won a number of antiques in a row, was once again the focus of everyone's attention,
like a dazzling diamond in this auction hall, shining brightly enough to overshadow everyone else.
Under the gaze of the crowd, Jocelyn calmly, eating melon seeds and drinking tea, continued to watch
the auction ......
At this time, there was a sudden commotion at the stairway not far from her.
Naturally, Jocelyn's eyes were drawn to it.
Only Robert and Zoe, surrounded by a group of people, came up and sat directly two tables away from
her.
The attendants in the auction room were extraordinarily respectful when they saw him.
The two, with their eyes on the auction stage the whole time, completely missed out on Jocelyn ......
Robert lazily wrapped his arms around Zoe and sat together at the rosewood table, crossing his legs
and looking intently at the pink diamond jewellery set that had just been brought up on the auction
stage.
They were seated on the same side, and when they sat down, they left only two perfect and intimate
backs to Jocelyn.
Jocelyn was completely stunned, her gaze full of disbelief.
How did Robert end up in a place like this?
It is reasonable to say that he, a gangster, is not even qualified to enter this door tonight.
Not to mention coming upstairs to the elegant seats and even being worshipped like a god by the
waiters.
Soon, the crowd started bidding on the pink diamond jewellery set.
In the end, Robert captured the attention of the room by winning the rare item for 300 million.
Ruby was totally unaware that Robert had come up because she had been staring at the jewellery
when he came up.
At this moment, Robert was again with his back to herself, and she could not see his face at all, so she
only gave him and Zoe's back a faint glance before placing her eyes back on the auction stage.
And Jocelyn was even more shocked.
Using a sky-high price of 300 million to auction off a set of jewellery is completely unlike something
someone of Robert's stature could do.
At this moment, looking at Robert and Zoe's back, Jocelyn's heart flashed with too many doubts, what
was all this about?
Is Robert's identity actually not as simple as she understands it to be at all?
Could it be that he was the son of some supreme powerhouse?
If that was true, then why did he always look lower than Noah when he was in his presence?
Noah is just a guy who works in the underworld.
What could he do to make the son of the most powerful man treat him with respect and dignity?
Or maybe Noah is actually a step above Robert?
Could it be that Noah is not a gangster, but a very powerful character of some kind?
But she thought it was unlikely. If Noah was really a big shot, then there was no way he would agree to
help play her fake husband.
How could they have the time to cooperate with her on such matters?
But if Noah is not a big shot, then what the hell is all this about?
For a moment, she wondered. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
After Robert finished buying the pink diamond jewellery set, he walked away with his arm around Zoe,
the two of them not noticing Jocelyn and Ruby the whole time.
After the two had gone, Jocelyn's doubts continued.
Her concentration was also completely disturbed by Robert's appearance.
Or maybe Robert was here to help his own boss?
After thinking about it, she felt that this was the only reason, and the only one, that made more sense.
Once she had figured it out, she returned her attention to the auction table.
Suddenly there was some desire to go to the washroom, so Jocelyn stood up and looked at Ruby
beside her and said, "Ruby, I'll go to the washroom first."
Ruby took Jocelyn's hand affectionately, "Do you need me to keep you company?"
Jocelyn shook her head, "No need."
Afterwards, she patted the back of Ruby's hand and walked towards the bathroom with modest steps.
Once inside, she heard the sound of two women discussing.
"Robert is really generous ...... three hundred million auctioned that set of jewellery, actually directly to
his female partner to wear ......"
"Who did you hear that from?"
"I heard from the waiter. He went to pay the money and put the jewellery on the woman straight away."
"It is indeed generous, that woman is making a fortune, even if she is dumped in the end, she will not
lose out, this set of jewellery will guarantee her a lifetime of good food and drink."
The two of them were discussing it while propping their hands on the sink and leaning slightly over the
mirror to touch up their lipstick.
Hearing their words, Jocelyn instantly dismissed the idea that she had already been sure of.
Robert could casually give a set of three hundred million of jewellery, directly to Zoe, that means, he is
really of an extraordinary status.
Unable to hold down the curiosity in her heart, Jocelyn looked at the two noblewomen and asked,
"What is Robert status?"
Two noblewomen looked at her through the mirror, and once they saw her face, one stopped applying
lipstick and said enthusiastically, "Don't you even know that?"
