Chapter 90
“What?” Yanina was taken aback. It sounded like Cameron had prepared a gift just for her.
Cameron smiled proudly, patiently listening to the host’s explanation, feeling incredibly satisfied inside.
This exhibit was something he had donated, and buying it back for Yanina felt like a win.
It was common practice in their circle for donors to bid on their items. They claimed to have donated, but in reality, it was just a transaction of money.
“The emerald bracelets start at 80 thousand; the auctioneer said
Cameron raised his paddle. “100 thousand
Sophie stared at the emerald bracelets for a moment, not particularly fond of it.
But when she saw Yanina beside Cameron so interested, she couldn’t help but want to snatch it away.
Thinking this, she raised her paddle. 120 thousand.”
Mabel quickly followed suit. “130 thousand.”
Cameron raised his paddle again. “150 thousand.”
Sophie wasn’t going to back down. “170 thousand.”
Mabel wanted to raise her paddle again, but Sebastian held her hand down. “Are you out of your mind, trying to outbid Mr. Foley for bracelets?”
Mabel sheepishly lowered her hand but felt a surge of happiness seeing Cameron still raising his bid.
Not only was he competing with the deputy mayor’s daughter, but he was doing so with such dominance, pushing the price up to 330 thousand.
‘He’s completely disregarding Julian. Trying to impress a wornan like this might just get him into trouble with Julian, Yaning will be pulled into it, too, Mabel thought.
At that moment, Sophie, sitting in the front row, felt her face flush. She didn’t need to think hard to know who Cameron was buying the bracelets for.
Refusing to give up, she lifted her paddle again but was stopped by Julian pressing it down.
“Sophie, I don’t have that much money for you to waste like this, Julian said, frowning deeply.
If it got out that he spent 330 thousand on a pair of bracelets, people would certainly question where he got that kind of
money.
Sophie realized this and
couldn’t let their familracted her hand slightly. In terms of financial power, she didn’t feel inferior to Cameron. But she
wealth be exposed like this.
“Dad, I’m sorry,” Sophie mumbled, but her eyes flickered toward Cameron.
At that moment, Cameron was smiling warmly at Yanina.
She clenched her fists again. I have to make Cameron treat me like he treats that bitch. Everything he has will be mine in the future

Chapter 90
After a few more items were auctioned, Yanina turned her head away, uninterested.
She hated attending these kinds of auctions and wanted to stretch her legs.
Slowly, she stood up. I’m going to the restroom.”
Til go with you, Cameron said, recalling the last time Yanina got locked in a restroom, worried something might happen to
her.
“We’re in Drakonia. I’ll be fine. Yanina rejected him.
Drakonia House was the Zamora family’s territory, so she was naturally safe.
Cameron relaxed and sat back down.
Seeing Yanina stand up, Sophie followed suit, trailing behind her.
When Yanina emerged from the restroom, Sophie was waiting at the door. “It’s really you! I thought I was mistaken.
Due to Sophie’s insistence on swapping Yetta’s hospital room, Yanina didn’t hold a favorable view of her or her family. Seeing Sophie approach her, Yanina didn’t respond warmly.
“Hi, Yanina said before trying to leave.
Since arriving in Yvale, Sophie had become the center of attention wherever she went.
Yanina noticed Sophie’s cold demeanor and felt a surge of irritation, compounded by jealousy from earlier. Her tone turned sharp. “You’re just going to walk away like that? No wonder you’re just a country bumpkin. You really lack manners.”
Yanina frowned, thinking. As expected, this is her true nature, rude and arrogant. She speaks so impolitely, putting herself on a pedestal
She had encountered many girls like her.
“Is there something else you need? Yanina asked politely, not wanting to cause trouble for Cameron.
Sophie forced a smile. “You’re a star under Everbright Group, right? I noticed you have a good relationship with Mr. Zamora. I like him and would like you to introduce us
Yanina understood.
Cameron always attracted the attention of young girls.
She recalled the day in the hospital when Sophie had been eagerly clinging to Cameron.
‘So she’s just jealous of me, Yanina thought.
But it wasn’t her responsibility to shield Cameron from romantic advances.
“Ms. Foley, I’m not with Everbright Group, and my relationship with Cameron is casual. If you like him, you should talk to him directly, not come to me,” she said.
Sophie’s face turned bright red. She knew Cameron, but she could barely hold a conversation with him.
All she wanted was to warn Yanina got to overestimate her worth and that she didn’t match up to Cameron
She hadn’t expected Yanina to be so sharp–tongued, stripping her of any pretense.

“You…” Sophie stammered.
Yanina recalled how friendly she had been with Yetta and the nature of Yetta’s relationship with Zak
It all started to make sense.
“By the way, Yetta is a very innocent person. Don’t try to use her to get close to Cameron. It won’t work,” she added.
“You…” Sophie wanted to say more but was interrupted by a tall figure slowly approaching.
Cameron looked at them and asked, “What are you two talking about?”
“Mr. Zamora? I was just chatting with Ms. Fulbright. She warned me not to get close to you and even threatened me,” Sophie said, playing the victim.
