Chapter 294 Not a Match
Chapter 294 Not a Match
She had an accident and was in a coma for the past year. And the ring had been kept in Robert's villa.
However, she didn't expect Robert to put the ring up for auction now.
Georgia felt very sad and could not stay here any longer.
People around her were bidding.
5 million yuan... 8 million yuan... 10 million yuan...
Suddenly, Riley raised his hand.
"50 million yuan!"
At this moment, the people at the auction were shocked, because that one diamond ring was not worth so much money. However, this Mr. Prince actually offered 50 million to buy this ring.
The host asked a few more times, and then no one offered a higher price. He simply settled the deal.
"Congratulations! Mr. Price, you have bought this diamond ring."
Riley smiled at the host.
"My partner loves this diamond ring, so I'm going to buy it and give it to her."
When Riley finished this sentence, Georgia's eyes showed a surprised look. Riley deliberately tilted her head to Georgia's ear, which made the two look particularly intimate.
"I can see that you care about this ring, so I bought it for you."
And there were many people around her who were looking at them. Georgia had mixed feelings in her heart. Georgia didn't want to show a rude expression on her face, so she could only keep smiling.
The auction went on like that. After the auction was over, Georgia and Riley planned to leave. However, the two of them ran into Robert and Sierra again directly.
They looked at each other. And Georgia suddenly stepped forward and spoke to Robert and Sierra.
"Robert, you once gave me some gifts. Now those gifts should be in your villa. Since you gave me those gifts, don't I have the right to get them back?"
Robert instantly thought of the familiar ring he had seen at the auction. He always thought he had seen that ring somewhere. Then Georgia mentioned this ring in front of him again.
"You put out the ring you used to propose to me for auction. Robert, you must at least get my permission to auction the gift you gave me. I'm here to ask you whether the gifts you gave me still belong to me. If those gifts belong to me, please pack them and return them to me. If those things do not belong to me, then I will never question you about those gifts again."
Robert was shocked that the ring was the same ring he had used to propose to Georgia. And then he looked at Sierra subconsciously and experienced an emotional upheaval.
In the end, Robert did not say anything to Sierra. Then he spoke to Georgia.
"I will have the housekeeper pack those things and return them to you. Since those are my gifts to you, those gifts naturally belong to you."
Georgia forced a laugh, then turned right around and took Riley's hand. She never looked back at Robert again, but she wanted to leave that place immediately with a straight face.
When she got to the hotel door, the car was already here. And Georgia could have gotten in and left at any time, but Riley smiled at Georgia and said, "You take the ring first. Isn't this the ring that you wore when he proposed to you? I already bought it, so I'm going to give you this ring."
Riley handed Georgia the ring his assistant had just brought over. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Georgia opened the velvet box, and the diamond ring inside looked so familiar to her.
Her eyes turned red, but she took the ring away.
Even though Robert had done something to break her heart today, she still couldn't let go of the ring.
"Thank you very much for what you've done for me. I'm going to get in the car now and go home. I'll see you later."
After Georgia said that, she got in the car.
Only she didn't expect Riley to take the opportunity to sit in her car as well.
"My assistant just told me that my car broke down. Miss Lane, please give me a ride home."
Georgia smiled a little as she watched the way Riley was telling lies in front of her. She felt in a better mood for a while and then told the driver to drive straight away.
When the reporters outside the hotel saw Riley and Georgia getting into the same car, they became more gossip and enthusiastic about their affair. It seemed that these two were not acting, but they were really dating each other.
After Sierra and Robert got in the car, Robert asked Sierra who sat next to him.
"What was that one ring all about?"
Robert was well aware that the item he had donated was an antique painting. And the ring was not a charity item that he donated. And this one ring was inside his villa, so the only person who could have done this was Sierra.
Sierra had an answer ready, so she immediately said to Robert, "When I received the invitation, I saw that the invitation said that the people who attended this charity dinner would donate a charity item to be auctioned off. Robert, I don't want to donate what you gave me. And I don't have any money myself, so I asked Anaya what to do. And Anaya told me that you have some places inside your villa where you keep a lot of jewelry. Then Anaya asked me to ask you if I could wear those jewels. I remember asking you a while ago who the jewels belonged to, and then you said I could wear them all. I picked out a ring and donated it. I'm sorry. I didn't know it was a memory between you and Georgia. I made a mistake."
Sierra told him guiltily. Then Robert sighed.
"Just forget it. I don't blame you for this either. I wasn't paying attention to those things, and I didn't know those jewels belonged to Georgia. I'll return those jewels to her. And Sierra, I'll prepare a credit card for you. If you want to buy anything in the future, you can use the card to buy stuff."
Sierra had refused the black card that Robert had offered her before, but she just looked down and was silent this time.
"Do you think I'm useless? I have nothing to do every day. And I don't make any money at home, so I have to use your money."
Sierra asked Robert while her eyes were turning red.
"Do you think I'm doing this on purpose? Do you think I deliberately take your and Miss Lane's ring for auction? It's really a coincidence."
Robert didn't want to read Sierra's mind. Even if Sierra did know the ring was Georgia's and did it on purpose, and even if Sierra was a little disgusted and jealous of Georgia, Robert thought it was reasonable for her to do so.
"You're already my fiancée, so you're going to be my wife. We're family, so it would have made sense for you to use the card I gave you. Thus, don't ever refuse to accept it again. And you're going to attend a lot of dinner parties and buy jewelry and clothes you like, so you can't always wear a dress someone gave you like you did today."
After Sierra listened to Robert's persuasion, she bowed her head and thanked him. Then she didn't continue to refuse him.
And in the hotel, after seeing off all the guests, Travis walked up to Sarah.
"Well? Did your plan work out?"
"I've got Sierra's hair, but I haven't finished what I wanted to do with Robert tonight. Therefore, I can only finish the identification of Sierra's hair first. I still have to figure out a way to implement the plan at Robert's. Do you want Georgia to do something about Robert? Because we outsiders can't get close to Robert, it's very difficult for me to get hair from him."
After Sarah asked Travis that question, Travis began to think about it.
"I'll think about it. It also depends on whether Georgia agrees to do it."
The charity auction ended that evening.
Jasper also participated in that charity auction this evening. And he bought an emerald necklace for his sister. Before he got home, Jasper got a phone call out of the blue.
It was a phone call from the hospital. Then Jasper thought of the match result at once, so he got on the phone.
"Mr. Holland, your bone marrow is not a match."
"I know. I've got a lot of people continuing to work on the bone marrow match. If there is a suitable bone marrow match, please call me right away and let me know."
Jason and Robert had both agreed to help Jasper. And Jasper had asked employees in his company to go for the match. If someone's bone marrow was a match, and that person wanted to donate the bone marrow voluntarily in the end, he would give that person a generous reward. But he hadn't heard any news about it yet.
As the uncle of his sister's child, Jasper was a little sad and disappointed that his bone marrow was not matched with his nephew's.
He looked a little depressed after getting out of the car. Then he went back to the Holland family's living room. His sister was holding his nephew and playing with him.
Jasper walked over to Selena, and she smiled in surprise.
"Brother, you're back! Are you hungry? Do you want me to order the chef to heat some food for you?"
Jasper shook his head. Then he just picked up his nephew and looked at the child with loving eyes.
He and his sister had talked privately and planned to keep this from his parents for now.
But his bone marrow was not a match for his nephew. If he continued to hide this from his parents, he didn't think there would be any progress in searching for a bone marrow match. Jasper told his sister, "I just got a call from the hospital saying that my bone marrow is not a match. So what are we going to do now?"
When she heard Jasper say this, Selena's face turned pale.
If even her brother's bone marrow was not a match, then she would have to search for a suitable bone marrow match in a sea of people. But she didn't know if they could find a match.
Selena's hands were shaking, and she didn't know what to do. Then she suddenly heard Elliot's voice.
"What bone marrow matching are you talking about? What the heck is going on here?"
