Coldness flashed through Jacob’s eyes as he averted his attention from the crowd and said to Heidi
lovingly, “Do you find it boring here? Shall we go out?”
Heidi stood up straight immediately and gasped, “Yes, please!”
A smile rested on Jacob’s lips. “Call me dad and I’ll bring you out to play.”
Moira’s blood boiled when she heard that from the side. This man is doing all he can to reunite with
Heidi! In your dreams, Jacob!
The resentment that had accumulated over the past six years made Moira instantly forget the great
blow that she had suffered tonight.
She stared daggers at Jacob before changing her expression immediately and turning to talk to Heidi
with a smile. “It’s getting late, Heidi. We should go home.”
Hmph, so what if you’re rich? Stop us from leaving if you’re so capable. Moira threw out her chest.

The latter gave Jacob an affirmative gaze and waved in a specific direction.
Soon, Moira’s phone rang.
Moira glanced at the phone and quickly answered the call. “Hi Boss… Yeah, I’m seated at another
table… Alright, I’ll be there right away.”
After waiting for the other party to hang up the call, she said to Jacob with a sulky face, “Help me look
after Heidi for a while. I have some matters to attend to in the office.”
“See you.” His gaze fixed on Heidi, Jacob waved his hand without even glancing at Moira.
Damn it, you jerk!
Moira gritted her teeth in anger. Nevertheless, an ambitious woman like her wouldn’t want to turn the
boss down, especially when she had found favor with her boss.
“Let’s go to check out the game room.” After watching Moira leave, Jacob stretched out his hands to
Heidi.
Heidi’s eyes lit up at once at the mention of the game room. She reached out her hands to Jacob
excitedly.
Jacob stood up in satisfaction while carrying Heidi and said to Jerry, “I’ll leave the jade to you.”
“Sure, Boss. Don’t worry about that.” Jerry thumped his chest.
In no time, there were only two men left at Table No.12.
Jonah shrugged uncomfortably and mumbled, “Uhmm… My family is over there. I’ll go over and join
them.”
Jerry didn’t bother looking at Jonah and raised his hand and yelled, “Fifty million.”
Jonah was rendered speechless when Jerry shouted out a price that was twenty million higher than the
last bid.
“Hmph! What’s so great about being wealthy?” he grumbled sourly after returning to Table No.17.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJonah’s father, a middle-aged businessman who ran a business that earned an annual profit of more
than ten million, asked solemnly, “What were you doing at Table No.12?”
Moments later, he hummed, “Stay away from those people at Table No.12.”
“Alright.” Jonah hummed gloomily.
Seated at Table No.2, Yuna curled her lips and nudged her husband’s arm. “Did you see that? That guy
is gone!”
Charlie glanced backward and saw Jacob leaving with Heidi in his hands.
He averted his gaze to look at Yuna with a thoughtful look. “What do you want?”
Yuna drew close to Charlie’s ear and hissed softly with a wicked look, “Rather than wait until the
auction is over, why don’t we get those men to teach him a lesson now!”
“That doesn’t sound good…” Charlie murmured in a quandary.
