Chapter 160
Her words were like a wakeup call for Selena, and she immediately regained herposure. “I have to
find out who the other person is.”
Thereafter, she stood up and went out. Chasing after her, Linda said, “President Yard, this is against
the regtions. If the organizers of the Royal Auction finds out about this, we’ll be cklisted.”
“I can’t be bothered about that. I have to find out who bought my mother’s jade bracelet so that I can
negotiate with that person after this. Or else, I’ll lose track of the bracelet again.”
Leading Linda to the washroom next to room number one, she first pretended to use the washroom
before secretly spying on the movements in the next room.
While they waited anxiously for the person in room number one to leave the room, someone suddenly
came out from the male washroom next to them.
“Ms. Yard? What a coincidence.”
Spinning her head around, Selena saw that it was Niall who had greeted her.
“What are you doing here, Niall?” she asked, startled.
With a pained look on his face, he replied, “Don’t bring it up, Ms. Yard. I’m here on an errand for
President Fowler.”
Eyeing him suspiciously, she knew that he had to be here to buy something as an errand since this was
an auction. “What kind of errand?”
As he already knew that she was in a rtionship with Pierre, Niall didn’t think it would be a problem if
he told her the truth. Moreover, this wasn’t considered a secret, either.
“I’m here to bid for a bracelet on his behalf. This is a very pricey bracelet, and I had to bid for it with one
hundred and ten million. My goodness, I didn’t expect so many to fight for it with me, and I almost
couldn’tplete my task.” Sighing, he continued, “Do you know who are the people in room number
eighteen and number three? The one in number eighteen is especially aggressive!”
Linda took a step forward, but was immediately pulled back by Selena. After ncing at Selena, she bit
her lips and held back her words.
“I don’t know anything about that since the Royal Auction kept it a secret.”
Nodding in agreement, Niall said, “That’s true. By the way, what brought you here, Ms. Yard?”
“Me? I, um… I’m just here to watch the show,” she answered with a tight smile. “President Fowler…
What does Pierre want with a bracelet?”
“That’s all because of Me—” Niall stopped himself mid-sentence and smiled sheepishly. I shouldn’t be
telling this to Selena, he thought. No woman will be able to ept it if I told her that President Fowler is
bidding this for Meredith.
However, Selena already understood who he meant at the sound of the first syble. It’s for Meredith.

She must have asked for his help to bid this bracelet for her, which was why Pierre was willing to pay
such a high price for it.
“I’m not too sure, either. Ms. Yard, I have to rush back with the bracelet now, so I’m taking my leave
first,” Niall said and left hastily.
Coming next to Selena, Linda asked, “Why didn’t you let me say anything, President Yard? Maybe
Pierre will let you have the bracelet if they knew that we’re here for it today! This is an unnecessary
misunderstanding between the both of you! If we had known this, we wouldn’t have raised the bid so
high!”
Shaking her head, Selena asked, “Didn’t you hear what Niall said? Pierre is bidding this bracelet for
Meredith.”
“What?”
“Meredith must also know that I’m asking for this bracelet in return for helping the family through the
crisis, so she went to beg Pierre to help her win the bid for her,” she borated in a gloomy voice,
feeling like she had never felt so depressed in her life before. In fact, she was feeling more depressed
than not winning the bid over the bracelet.
“Is Meredith sick? Why didn’t she ask Pierre for a direct fund transfer into the Yard Family? Wouldn’t
that have solved the problem directly?” Linda asked, unable to figure out the logic.
