Chapter 227: Chapter 227: Why Don’t You Give It a Try?
"Whose figure is better, his or mine?"
As July Quinn tried hard to banish a certain eye-popping image from her mind, she heard Kyle Keaton’s voice beside her again.
July Quinn couldn’t help but glance Kyle Keaton up and down.
She didn’t say anything, but the look on her face seemed to suggest, "I didn’t expect you, Kyle Keaton, to look rather abstinent, yet care so much about your figure!"
But then, Kyle Keaton suddenly grasped her waist, and his face lowered down.
This stance made July Quinn briefly think he was infuriated and embarrassed because she didn’t acknowledge his physique.
So she hurriedly conceded, "Of course, yours."
She didn’t want to perform a restricted scene in public, even though they were married.
"Really?" Kyle Keaton did not move his extremely close face away; he just slightly raised an eyebrow.
As he spoke, his masculine pheromones sprayed onto July Quinn’s face, stimulating her sensory nerves, making her feel the heat turning red on her cheeks grow worse.
Even without looking in a mirror, she knew she must be blushing like a pig.
She didn’t want others to see her embarrassment, so she had to concede again.
"Really, really, you have all the abs, the Adonis belt, and the washboard abs any man would envy!"
So what if she admitted his figure was better than Justin Callahan’s?
What’s so hard about that?
Besides, he did indeed have a tall and upright physique, one in a million.
Yet July Quinn never expected, even after she admitted Kyle Keaton’s physique, this guy still wouldn’t let him off.
"Since my figure is so great, why don’t you give it a try?"
When the man said this, the large hand on July Quinn’s waist suddenly tightened considerably.
July Quinn could easily deduce from his actions that the so-called "give it a try" meant intimacy.
Yet it seemed if her heart was already willing, her body might not bear it. Trying it might lead to doom!
In the future, not only would Kyle Keaton have a tight grip on her, but she’d also lead a pitiful life of "He could do without me, but I couldn’t do without him."
But July Quinn dared not reveal her thoughts, so she simply said, "I’m just not ready yet."
But this clumsy excuse, Kyle Keaton saw through immediately.
"It’s not that you’re not ready, you’re just afraid."
July Quinn glared at him, "It’s not fear, it’s being cautious."
The two were so busy competing that they hardly noticed Nina Quinn and Justin Callahan had been focused on them all along.
Justin Callahan was frustrated how July Quinn could stir him up so much while also flirting with other men, letting him foolishly expose his vulnerability, and he was also puzzled by how familiar this Assistant Keaton seemed, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
But it was baffling, as he tried hard to recall the itinerary in Westmarch over the past few days, and he hadn’t interacted with this person at all, leaving him clueless where this sense of familiarity came from.
As for Nina Quinn, she really didn’t want to get involved with July Quinn today.
The key issue was Justin Callahan had been embarrassed again and again by July Quinn and still kept staring in her direction.
Completely disregarding her as his date, how could she stand it?
Luckily, just as Nina Quinn was nearing her limit of such grievance, the auction finally started.
Holly Houston, indeed worthy of being from hosting and broadcasting, stirred the mood right from the start of the auction, quickly introducing the first item on auction for today.
To kick off the auction well, the first item was a raw diamond stone capable of being cut into over 30 carats, with remarkable clarity, so the starting bid was twenty million.
Soon, bidders who were eyeing this diamond stone began raising their paddles one after another...
