In an instant, Liana felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Her face turned pale.
Rosaline was also startled, and her entire body froze.
“Mom! W–What’s going on?!” Liana stuttered. “Didn’t you sell this necklace? Why is it in the auction?”
“I did sell it! This is impossible!” Rosaline murmured in astonishment.
“What do we do now? Jasper is sitting right there. How do you think he’ll feel seeing the gift he gave me being put up for auction? He’ll definitely be mad at me!” Liana was filled with resentment and almost on the verge of tears.
“It’s alright! There can’t be only one of these necklaces in the world. Maybe it’s an exact replica
“But there isn’t another! The auctioneer just introduced it. It’s the same one Jasper gave me! No
Planation will fool him!”
Both of them racked their brains to figure things out. Liana was thinking about her explanation to Jasper. While Rosaline was wondering why the necklace she sold was auctioned under the name of the KS Group.
A thought crossed her mind. She jerked up from her seat, drawing disdainful glances from the people around. Did the Taylor family also own a pawnshop business?
The pawnshop dealt with many items daily, but the Taylor family chose to donate this unremarkable necklace to the charity auction. It couldn’t be a coincidence.
Her mind ran wild as she realized this, and her gaze at Alyssa turned vicious. She was certain that wicked woman had pulled some strings.
Only she would know that the ‘Crimson Heart‘ was a token of love Jasper gave to Liana. She must. be resentful because she couldn’t obtain Jasper’s love. So, she used the Taylor family to donate the necklace to seek revenge.
Meanwhile, Jasper’s striking face turned gloomy and ice cold. His chest was heaving, and cold
sweat trickled down his forehead.
“Jasper? Are you alright?” Landon was frightened by his unusual demeanor. But he couldn’t understand what was happening.
Jasper had poured his sincere feelings into the “Crimson Heart,” from the design to the material selection. Then, it was personally carved by a renowned designer. It was the most meticulous effort he made in his lifetime for a woman.

Now, his love was shamelessly put up for auction. It was like being stripped naked and nailed to
the pillar of shame, subjected to public humiliation!
“Representatives from the KS Group expressed that this ‘Crimson Heart‘ is a token of deep
affection given by a man to his lover, with extraordinary significance. Sincere love cannot be
priced. So, this item is being showcased last because of its unique bidding process. We will follow the company’s advice and auction this necklacé without a starting price!”
Liana collapsed onto the chair, her vision turning black.
Everyone’s interest was piqued. The hall was livelier than when the Antique Rosewood Chair was
auctioned.
Jasper couldn’t stand it any longer. His eyes turned bloodshot as he clenched his teeth.
“Stop it,” he said.
“What?”
“Stop the auction immediately. That belongs to me!”
Landon’s eyes widened in astonishment, and his mouth was agape.
At that moment, Jasper noticed Jonah’s seat was empty, and Alice had disappeared. He clenched his fists. The anger radiating from him made Landon shudder.
Jasper cursed Alice for making such a devious move. He wondered if she was satisfied with his humiliation. 1
Alyssa had carefully planned for the scene to unfold, but she lost interest in the middle of it and left early. In the restroom, she sighed softly while looking at herself in the mirror.
