Mistress Framed Her, Now the Mafia Princess Wants Blood

That evening, Hugo arrived first. When Kiara showed up, she realized Dorothy was there as well.

Hugo held Dorothy’s hand. “Dorothy will be the mother of my child in the future. There will be many events like this going forward, so I brought her to get used to the setting beforehand.”

Kiara no longer paid any attention. Without replying, she walked straight inside.

After sitting down, the first lot presented was a gentleman’s brooch that had once belonged to the British royal family.

Kiara lifted her paddle. “One million.”

A subtle smile appeared on Hugo’s face. He thought Kiara intended to purchase it as a way to reconcile with him.

However, in the next second, Dorothy lifted her paddle as well. “Two million.”

Kiara frowned and bid again. “Three million.”

Dorothy did not have much money and looked at Kiara with a pitiful look. “Sister Kiara, I really like this brooch. Could you let me have it?”

Kiara mocked. “Now you remember to talk about giving way? Where was that attitude when you were taking what belonged to me? If you’re capable, add money and purchase it yourself.”

Dorothy’s eyes immediately turned red with grievance as she glanced toward Hugo.

Hugo’s expression hardened, and he lifted the paddle on Dorothy’s behalf. “Five million.”

Kiara bit down hard. “Eight million.”

“Ten million.”

Ten million for a brooch was indeed overpriced, and that was all the cash she currently had, so Kiara could only stop bidding.

In the end, Hugo won the brooch at ten million.

For every lot afterward, whenever Kiara showed interest, Dorothy would step in and take it.

Hugo thought naming prices was a waste of time. If Dorothy wanted something, he would send up a sky lantern right away.

Until the last item, it was a top-quality herb that could help her father’s heart problem.

Kiara bid again. When she saw Hugo about to send up another sky lantern, she could not stay quiet anymore.

“Hugo, are you going to take everything and leave nothing for anyone else?”

“Remember, that’s our shared marital property you’re using!”

He looked at her coldly. “If you understand that, then don’t compete. That way, I do not need to release another lantern.”

Compete?

Who was truly fighting over the items?

Every time she liked something, Hugo had taken it first. Because of that, she had not won a single thing.

And now he claimed she was the one fighting for it?

Kiara had her own pride. She lifted her chin and said, “This herb belongs to me this time!”

She directly offered ten million; it was every bit of her savings.

Hugo had just planned to continue lighting the sky lantern, but he learned there wasn’t enough money in his auction account.

In the end, the item went to Kiara for ten million.

Dorothy was so angry that her teeth clenched, and she began stirring up trouble from the side.

“Brother Hugo, all the cash in this house is yours. Sister being able to take out that much money is also because you make a lot.”

“So this herb should belong to you as well.”

Kiara had met shameless people before, but never anyone this shameless.

“This cash is entirely mine. It has nothing to do with Hugo, not even a single cent.”

“Hugo, if you are still a man, you should not be eyeing a woman’s money.”

After saying that, Kiara picked up her things and was ready to leave, but Hugo blocked her. “Hand the item to Dorothy. I will buy you something else later.”

Kiara said, “What if I refuse?”

Hugo’s eyebrows drew together. “Kiara, I am not asking you.”

As his voice dropped, Hugo directly told the bodyguards to snatch the item from Kiara’s hands and hand it over to Dorothy.

“Kiara, why can you never learn to behave?”

“Since you are like this, then go back and cool off properly.”

The bodyguards forcefully dragged Kiara back to the house and shut her inside.

Kiara was scared of darkness, so Hugo purposely locked her in the cellar to make her remember the warning.

She shook without control again and again in the dark, but did not plead with Hugo for forgiveness.

Just hold on a little longer. The next day, she would be able to receive the divorce certificate. At that time, she would fully settle every score with Hugo.

But before she could wait for the divorce certificate, she first faced Hugo’s blame.

Early in the morning, Hugo rushed over in anger.

“Kiara, what did you do to that herb last night? Dorothy lost the baby because she touched the herb you purchased!”

“Kiara, you hurt her!”
