Chapter 106 Mega-rich “8 million!” • 54% 14:47 1/5 The auctioneer called out this price with a surprised tone, “Cecelia bid 8 million!” Everyone was shocked and turned their heads to look at Cecelia who was holding up the plate. Gary looked so pis sed off. He made up his mind to do a charity to clear his name, but his daughter was against him? He was so angry! The Shawn family could see that Cecelia was doing it on purpose, and Ophelia hated Cecelia so much. Two rows away, she couldn’t help but ask, “Cecelia, you bid $8 million! Do you have that much money? Don’t boast off without having that ability, okay!” Cynthia said, “Why do you care so much? My brother is not short of money!” The Shawn family also saw Cecelia’s bid for the painting, and Robert thought that Cecelia, like him, really liked Mr. Guston’s work! Winnie and Camelia both snickered, “W TF. Showing off with the Nelson family’s money!” At this point, both Rupert and Sam looked playfully at Cecelia. Both of them felt that Cecelia had something herself! “No one higher than 8 million? Good! 8 million once! 8 million twice! 8 million three times! Deal!” When the auctioneer excitedly dropped the hammer, he also announced that the transaction was successful, which also showed that among the modern paintings, this live work of Mr. Guston broke the record of the auction world. Mr. Guston himself, sitting on the side, was driven crazy though he looked calm on the surface. The auctioneer next invited Cecelia to the stage, “Cecelia must be a great fan of Mr. Guston, or a public

service enthusiast! “Mr. Guston, I’d like to invite you to the stage as well!”

Cecelia stood up and walked to the stage, and Mr. Guston also came up, looking her up and down. BBM 00 AV Chapter 106 Mega-rich 54% 2/5 He was probably gloating, thinking that he was really lucky to have such a beautiful female fan. The auctioneer then interviewed her, “Cocolia, for what purpose did you offer such a high price?” Cecelia took the microphone and said lightly, “I know that Mr. Guston is known as a modern omorging artist and his paintings have a high appreciation potential. “In addition, I think it should be the right thing for each of us to take the opportunity, of this charity auction to make a contribution to public welfare. The auctioneer led the applause, “Good point, Cecelia, you two can shake hands and get to know each other first. Next is the ceremony of handing over the work.” Mr. Guston excitedly reached out to shake hands with Cecelia, but Cecelia didn’t even look at it, which made Mr. Guston feel awkward and could only withdraw his hand resentfully. Soon, the staff brought the agreement for the painting and they signed it on the spot. After Cecelia signed it, the auctioneer saw the name on it and was surprised, “Cecelia, you are donating in the name of Remington, the president of the Nelson Group?” “That’s right, Remington is my husband, and you can call me Mrs. Nelson. “My husband loves charity, and he couldn’t be here today, but he wanted to contribute to this cause. “The $8 million is for the auction of this painting, and in addition, he wants to donate $8 million directly to the Red Cross to help those in need.” After Cecelia finished her words, the audience were shocked.

It turned out that Cecelia was here for Remington. Mr. Nelson was too generous, wasn’t he? He spent $16 million at once! “Oh my G od! What a bounty! How rich he is!” they thought. BBM MN Chapter 106 Mega-rich 3/5 “Thank you and your husband very much. Let’s give a big round of applause to Mr. Nelson and Mrs. Nelson.” The whole room resounded with applause, and those who were reluctant to applaud had to applaud along with them. Rupert and Sam both felt that Cecelia had the charm to be worthy of their big bro, and both men had recorded the scene just now. Fredric, who was wearing a wig to disguise himself, also mixed in the crowd and filmed what happened just now. He couldn’t believe what he saw with his eyes. If he told Mr. Nelson about it; would Mr. Nelson believe it? Mrs. Nelson actually used Mr. Nelson’s name to donate. Her way of spending money was too generous! However, if Mr. Nelson knew that Cecelia bid a painting of Mr. Guston in his name, Mr. Nelson would definitely be pis sed off! After the agreement was completed, the transaction was announced to be completed, and a notary would bring the agreement to Remington to take the money later. The auctioneer happily announced, “Mrs. Nelson, this painting by Mr. Guston is now yours! Would you like us to take a picture of you with Mr. Guston and his work?” According to the usual auction process, a photo with the artist or the work would be taken at the time of

signing and delivery. Cecelia gave Mr. Guston a cold glance with disdain in her eyes, “No, I don’t want to be photographed with someone who is a faker of fame.” The auctioneer and Mr. Guston were both embarrassed and didn’t know what to say. The people on the stage didn’t know why she said that, as just now she spent so much to bid Mr. Guston’s masterpiece, but now she said that he was a fame faker. What was the situation? Cecelia started to look at the painting and commented, “I have seen all of Mr. Guston’s previous works, but I have never seen such a magnificent work. “May I ask Mr. Guston why he has changed his painting style today?” BBM MNO Chapter 106 Mega-rich 54% 14:47 Mr. Guston was stunned by the question, and many people at the scene, including Robert, also wanted to know the reason. 4/5 Mr. Guston calmed his mind and began to explain without panic. “Today I had the pleasure of coming to the Center City, and I was in a good mood, so’l painted with warm colors. It is normal to see some changes in style.” “Is that so? But I think that this style is not Mr. Guston’s style at all!” Cecelia’s words caused the hall to go quiet to the extreme. The audience was silent, all watching the awkward scene on the stage. One moment ago, Mr. Guston was complacent, but now he was being embarrassed by the woman in front of him. The auctioneer also lost control over the scene, and he looked to Jonathan, the curator, for help. Jonathan quickly walked up to the stage, took the microphone and said, “Mrs. Nelson, did you find something wrong?

“Mr. Guston’s painting was created live and everyone witnessed it. What could be wrong with it?” “That’s not right!” Cecelia looked so stern. “I don’t think this is Mr. Guston’s piece! It’s not worth 8 million at all!” After saying these words, Cecelia directly used a hairpin in her hand and cut through the painting. Scratches turned this good work into rags. “Hey you… How can you destroy my work?” Mr. Guston was so furious that he started to shout. This work managed to create a sky-high price of 8 million! This was a good time for him to make a name for himself, and it was all ruined by the woman in front of him! The whole room was shocked again. A $8 million painting was just scratched into pieces. What the hell was Cecelia up to? Everyone was both confused and angry.

Fredric was even more astonished. Cecelia spent 8 million on this to destroy it?
