“Let‘s go take a look. Your living room is so empty. I think the children would be happy if you decorated
it with a painting,” Sean suggested to Molly.
Molly agreed, “Sure. We‘ll go take a look, then.”
Even though Molly did not reject Benjamin‘s invitation, he still felt upset because of Sean.
He asked someone to make arrangements before taking Molly and Sean to the auction venue.
Benjamin threw Sean a displeased look and turned around. On the other hand, Sean completely ignore
d him.
The two seemed friendly on the surface, but deep down, they could not stand each other.
After they entered the art exhibition venue, someone led them to their designated seats. Benjamin want
ed to separate Molly and Sean.
However, Sean already knew about his intentions. Sean tugged on Molly‘s hand before Benjamin could
speak.

Molly did not know about the emotions that were happening under their calm expressions, so she
sat down.
Once again, Sean had ruined Benjamin‘s plans. However, Benjamin could not do a thing other
than fume in anger quietly.
They all sat together; Molly was seated in the middle with Benjamin and Sean on each of her sides.
The auction started, and the
workers showed them the paintings that were displayed at the art exhibition.
Benjamin tried to speak to Molly several times. Every time he tried to speak, Sean would stop him
from speaking by talking about the paintings.
Finally, Benjamin got a chance to speak to Molly.
“Molly, do you see anything that you like? I can make a bid for
you.”
“You don‘t have to go through such trouble, Mr. Forts. We can bid for it ourselves if we see something
we like,” Sean said coolly.
He
purposefully mentioned him and Molly collectively, but Molly was too oblivious to notice. She agreed wit
h Sean and struck another blow at Benjamin. “Mr. Anderson is right. You don‘t have to go through
such trouble. We can make a bid ourselves.”
Sean smiled slightly. For the first time, he thought that her obliviousness was cute.
Meanwhile, Benjamin was speechless.
He was hurt and remained silent from then on.
The paintings at the auction were decent. While Molly was interested in a few of the paintings, this was
an auction, after all, so some of them
were bade to exorbitant prices. In the end, Molly lost interest in the paintings after seeing the prices.
‘You‘re asking me to spend millions on a single painting? Do | look like a madman? I don‘t like those pai
ntings enough to want to bid them,‘ Molly thought.
This was why Molly had completely lost interest by the second half of the auction.

“You didn‘t see anything that you like? Why don‘t we go home? I‘ll get Tony to find you some paintings?
”
Sean noticed that Molly had glanced at her watch several times. He could tell that she was getting bore
d.
Throughout the auction, she did not show any interest in any of the drawings.
“Why
don‘t we go for a walk outside and have something to eat? I know a restaurant nearby that‘s pretty goo
d,” Benjamin suggested.
He did not want to be separated from Molly this soon.
Molly hesitated for a moment before she said, “Not
this time, maybe next time. Mr. Anderson has work to do. It‘s also getting pretty late. I need to give med
ical treatment to him and my other two family members tonight.”
‘He can leave first if he has work to do,’ Benjamin thought with annoyance.
However, Sean had no choice but to
agree after hearing that Molly had to treat her family members at night.
