A stranger? The price he bid was sky-high! It was obvious that he was interested in the woman on the stage. Frederick was immediately irked.
In an instant, the audience burst into an uproar and the supporters were so shocked that their jaws dropped. After all, Hannah was a star who had millions of fans. Yet, the item she chose was only sold at one hundred thousand dollars.
This unknown woman almost overtook her in a short time. It was really surprising! The light was focused on Alicia. On the big screen behind her, her stunning appearance was shown on screen, which took every audiences' breath away.
"She's so beautiful! She can definitely compete with Hannah! I should have voted for her just now..." "If only she was shown more on the screen!" "F*ck! She is extremely hot! It's definitely worth it to be able to dance and hug her! Who knows, one might be able to develop further feelings with her!" "Stop dreaming! Maybe she's a new fling from sbig company's boss! There are so many prominent figures here, don't embarrass yourself! Have you seen her before? Who is she?" "I don't know." There was a heated discussion going around and the veins on Frederick's hands began to throb violently. At the stime, the price was raised to two hundred thousand dollars in the blink of an eye.
"Two hundred and fifty thousand!" As soon as Jeremy spoke, there was another outburst.
"Two hundred and sixty thousand!" Similarly, although Marshall Clark was frowning, he was very interested in Alicia and this opportunity.

Looking down at the stage, Alicia did not expect Jeremy to compete with the man who flirted with her earlier. However, her face remained emotionless.
No matter who bid higher, it was just the sfor her! She was unwilling to sell the tie to neither of these men! However, the situation seemed to have settled. She guessed that it would eventually be sold to one of them! She pursed her lower lip slightly as she was unhappy.
On the other side, looking at Alicia on the stage, Frederick was so enraged that he even had the impulse to kill those two men on the spot. Hannah was also shocked too as she didn't expect a newbie to steal her thunder.
Carson was even more dumbstruck. He muttered, "Frederick, Alicia's charm is extraordinary! She really drove these men crazy!" Nonetheless, she was already taken! As Carson was silently abominating those men, he felt a sharp pain on his feet.
"Ugh..." With a grunt, he lowered his head and noticed that Frederick's leather loafer was stepping on his feet. "Frederick?" "Shut your d*mned mouth!" Only then did he notice that Frederick's tone was unusual. Pursing his lips, Carson held back the pain without saying anything.
He felt wronged and pitied himself.
In the end, Jeremy bought the tie at the price of 300,000 dollars.
On the stage, Alicia took out the tie personally and placed it on his neck. In an instant, she felt that her heart skipped a beat and her breath seemed to have stopped. Her hands were trembling and she didn't even dare to look at him! As for Jeremy, he had his gaze fixed on her.
She had helped him put on his tie in the past, but it was a distant memory, which made his heart ache.
It took her a lot of effort to tie it for him, then Alicia tidied it up for him very responsibly.
It was just a small movement, but Jeremy, who was distressed, held his breath. He couldn't help but hold her hands tightly...
Alicia paused and looked at him subconsciously. Their eyes met and the force of his hands increased a little. They stared at each other for quite stime. It was so deep and affectionate that they were like a pair of long-lost lovers.
At this moment, Frederick's face was gloomy and dull. Carson noticed that something was off, thus he asked, "Were they..." Lovers in the past? He had always thought that this man had been chasing after Alicia one-sidedly, but at this instant, Carson felt that both of them seemed to have feelings for each other. No wonder he didn't mind paying 300,000 dollars just for a tie. What was going on? Although he hadn't finished his words, Frederick knew what he was trying to ask and turned his head to look at him. His gaze was extremely fierce as if he was about to cut him into tiny little pieces. When Carson cto his senses, he slapped his mouth and forced a smile.

On the wide dance floor, the two of them danced slowly yet gracefully. The auction on the stage continued, but Carson's eyes were looking at the direction of where Frederick was glaring at. What on earth was going on with those two people? Frederick glanced at the man with a cold and serious look on his face. Carson felt that someone was going to get into trouble soon. Was Frederick interested in a beauty that was already taken and that he wanted to snatch her away? No way! Frederick had always hated women the most, hadn't he? Carson returned his gaze to Alicia, who was extremely charming and sexy. Her movements flowed with a dazzling grace, taking away Carson's breath.
Was it true that every hero loved beauty? Why did he feel that this woman could cause trouble? Hem ability to attractimen attractable? was incredible, making them look like bees that were attracted to a flower! A man was dancing with her while the other one was still coveting her! Carson felt anxious for Frederick and he couldn't help shaking his head! Alicia was not an easy target, it must be tough to get her heart! No wonder Frederick was in such a hurry to tie the knot with her! Alicia and Jeremy embraced the music and danced on the dance floor, but none of them said anything. Both of them had heavy hearts at the stime.
She had dreamed about such a Uschanse scene in the past. At present, she really had the chance to be close to him as she used to be. However, she suddenly felt that there seemed to be a barrier between them. They could never turn back time. She really wanted to ask him "why", but until the end of the dance, Alicia did not say anything.
No matter what he did to hurt her, he was her first love after all. She had put six years' worth of effort into him and the relationship. She always felt that maybe she could still keep sbeautiful memories with him for herself. She was afraid that she would be disappointed and break the harmony they had at the moment. She would end up wanting to seek justice and revenge.
Similarly, at this moment, Jeremy was debating in his heart. The sweet memories that they used to have and the desire in his heart, were like a volcano that was ready to erupt anytime.
As the music gradually cto an end, he grabbed her hand tightly the moment Alicia pulled her hand away from him. "Ally..." X Their gazes met. The next second, he had pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly before she realized it! "Wow..." Below the stage, there was a sudden cry of surprise. Frederick's face fell even more. Carson immediately grabbed his arm as Frederick was about to rush towards them.
