Jovana’s heart skipped a beat, and she looked over.
Juliette was hugging Armando’s neck and kissing his cheek.“Mando, you’re so nice to me!”
Armando pinched Juliette’s little nose lovingly and smirked, “You’re my sweetheart. If I’m not nice to you, who else would I be nice to?”
His doting voice hit Jovana’s ears and pained her heart.
She could still remember how, back then, Armando spent a fortune just to get her that piece of jewelry because she liked it.
Someone online even sighed about this, commenting:“I’ve always heard about some rich guys spending a fortune just to let their beloved smile. Now I’ve really seen a real case of it.”
At that time, Jovana was totally moved.
Now, Armando had completely forgotten about it, and he even took away the thing she cared about just to make his mistress happy.
“That’s so awful! Doesn’t Armando know you like this piece of jewelry? He actually bought it for that bitch?” Latisha shouted angrily.“What a jerk!
“It’s okay,” Jovana said lightly. It didn’t matter to her anymore.
She could go after the things she liked herself.
She raised the bidding paddle.“350 thousand dollars!”
*450 thousand dollars!”
Armando’s loud voice caused a stir around him.
The value of 150 thousand dollars tripled.
This was already way over Jovana’s budget, and she couldn’t afford it.
Latisha felt bad and picked up the bidding paddle, wanting to give it another shot.
But Jovana quickly held Latisha’s hand down and said, “Forget it.”
Armando was clearly determined to get that piece of jewelry for Juliette.
Jovana knew she and Latisha couldn’t beat him at all.
In the end, that pink diamond jewelry ended up with Armando for 450 thousand dollars.
Jovana looked over.
Juliette happily snuggled into Armando’s arms and acted cute, and Armando just looked at her with affection and patted her head gently.
Latisha was really pissed off.“Sooner or later, Armando will regret it!”
Armando won the bid for the next two items as well, making people around him so jealous.
Jovana watched as Armando openly favored Juliette and felt so hurt in her heart.
It turned out that true love really didn’t exist.
Soon, the set of jade jewelry that Jovana wanted was pushed onto the stage.
“Starting price,350 thousand dollars!” the auctioneer announced.
*450 thousand dollars!” Armando raised it by 100 thousand in one go.
The auctioneer smiled and teased, “It’s you again, sir. Buying it for your wife? You really love your wife!”
Jovana gritted her teeth when she heard it. She raised her bidding paddle.“530 thousand dollars.”
And Armando also kept offering a higher price.
Jovana bit the bullet and raised the price to 680 thousand dollars.
And she was still very nervous.
She looked at the two people not far away.

Juliette was turning her head, whispering something private to Armando.
Armando laughed brightly, put his hand on Juliette’s waist, and raised the bidding paddle.
820 thousand dollars!”
This was way over Jovana’s budget.
Jovana’s face turned pale, and her hand holding the bidding paddle kept tightening.
Jovana saw that Armando held Juliette’s hand and kept her close, not letting anyone else get near her.
Jovana suddenly felt like crying.
And Latisha got a bit furious, snapping, “Armando is such a jerk! That woman isn’t any better. She’s a total homewrecker!”
Jovana let go of the bidding paddle, and there was already a red mark on her palm.
She numbly pulled Latisha up by the hand, saying flatly, “Let’s go.”
“What about that set of jewelry?”
“It’s okay. I’ll just buy another set.”

Jovana appeared not to care, but Latisha knew that she’d been wanting this jade jewelry set for over three months. How could Jovana just give it up like that?
Latisha sighed helplessly.
After leaving the auction house, Jovana didn’t let Latisha accompany her and took a cab home by herself.
After she got home and saw the scene in the living room, she was stunned for a moment.
