Zara Woods curled her lip, convinced that Xaviera had lost her mind. In her eyes, money was just a number, and she would get this violin at any cost! In that case, she would raise the price one last time, pushing Xaviera to the brink and then withdraw.
If Xaviera said she didn’t want it later, she would be disrespecting charity and would be laughed at by the entire upper class in Libanan, unable to hold her head high.
If Xaviera was smart, she would have to swallow her pride and pay the huge sum obediently.

But she remained silent, sitting quietly, ignoring the burning gaze of the people.
Everyone grew restless. Why didn’t Miss Evans raise her card? Zara Woods’ heart sank, feeling like she was falling into an icy abyss.
She observed Xaviera’s carefree demeanor, her heart filled with anxiety.
After a while, Xaviera still didn’t speak up.

But Xaviera’s next words made the hairs on her neck stand on end! “But the price is too high. I... I'm out of money.” Xaviera seemed regretful and sighed: “I've already spent a lot of money, and I've only brought this amount withtoday. | can’t bring out more than three hundred million dollars. | thought I'd try to take it at 200 million dollars, but who knew Miss Woods would go straight to three hundred million dollars!” “I can see that Miss Woods really wants this violin, so I'll just let Miss Woods have it.” Zara Woods felt her head go blank in an instant.
She kept echoing one sentence in her brain: She’s not bidding anymore? If Xaviera really stopped bidding, Zara would have to spend three hundred million dollars on this violin! That's three hundred million dollars! The Woods family was already on the verge of collapse, unable to afford three hundred million dollars. Even if they could pay, the family would be severely impacted.

No! They can’t take this three hundred million dollars out!

Miss Woods is the role model among wealthy family’s daughters! | hope everyone could be as selfless as Miss Woods!” She even kicked Yigol, telling him to “Quickly clap!” Yigol immediately stood up and shouted loudly: “That's right!
