Chapter 439

Yves' eyes lit up at the thought of Jonah. Alyssa was speechless. She tried to figure out what exactly her

brother had done to make her love him.

"You really did a number, Jonah," Alyssa muttered under her breath.

Jasper had finished three cigarettes outside the venue. Yet, he remained upset and disappointed.

Nonetheless, he still dragged himself to the auction venue when it was time.

While he continued walking, another man approached the scene from the opposite end of the hallway.

The two immediately locked eyes as they stood outside the venue entrance. Tension hung in the air between them, with Jasper's intense glare clashing against Jameson's icy gaze.

The latter pushed his gold-rimmed glasses up, a smirk rising on his lips. "What a coincidence. Are you

here to contribute to charity too?"

Jasper smiled lazily. "Nah. I'm just here to help her in any way I can."

Jameson slowly curled his hands into fists, knowing who Jasper meant.

The charity auction was finally starting.

There were two ways for guests to participate-to donate their jewelry pieces or to bid for the items being.

auctioned.

All proceeds would be directed toward governmental charity trusts. They would be used for various charitable causes with complete transparency on their part.

Being the 15th annual charity event MINT had organized, the guests wondered if KS World Hotel would break the record for the amount accumulated.

There was some commotion when Jasper and Jameson walked into the hall. But knowing not to steal the spotlight from Alyssa tonight, they chose to sit in the very back row so as not to catch attention. Meanwhile, Alyssa had no idea Jameson was here tonight. She was in the front row with Yves, the two occasionally leaning in to chat and giggle with one another.

A few rows behind them, Zoe fumed by herself at the sight.

As the auction began, the auctioneer revealed the first item to be bid. It was encased in a glass specimen case for all to see.

"Our first jewelry piece tonight hails from the personal collection of Madam Lily Schmidt of the Schmidt.

Group. It is an exquisite gold necklace with five Inlaid princess-cut black crystal opals, truly a rare and beautiful marvel."

There came a flurry of gasps from the crowd.

Such an expensive, high-grade specimen to start with the auction? This was truly a sign of respect for Alyssa and the event she was hosting tonight!

Alyssa was just as shocked. She quickly turned around to find Jameson.

The man swiftly met her gaze, raising a hand to give her a wave. Alyssa grinned, waving back.

Meanwhile, Jasper watched the two's silent exchange, his grip on his number paddle tightened. He nearly distorted it.
