Caleb’s ego took a blow.


    The question was–why was he the victim?


    Caleb had nothing to do with Mia and Ginger. Only Mia, ording to the men’s guess, might he


    something to do with Timothy.


    Caleb’s frustrated expression lightened Mia’s mood.


    Ginger tiptoed and witnessed how Mia taught her irresponsible “father” a lesson.


    Nice job, Mommy! This shouldn’t be the end of it. There should be a part two!” she cheered.


    “He’s not that stupid to take the bait twice.” Mia had no intention of fooling Caleb again


    either.


    Calebpletely lost his mood. His spirits were low for the rest of the auction. Nothing seemed to


    pique his interest anymore.


    Mia’s spending habit provoked jealousy in Luna. Compared to Mia, who could spend as much as


    millions so easily, Luna couldn’t even spend 100 thousand dors at the auction.


    Luna spoke to Caleb, who was sitting in front of her, “Caleb, why don’t you clear things up with thedy


    on the second floor? What if she keeps picking on you? That won’t do.”


    “You think I haven’t done that yet? It’ll only work if she believes me!”


    “Why does she think that you’re the father of the kid?” She couldn’t figure out the answer to the


    question.


    He sighed, “Who knows? I’ll ask her again after the auction.”


    He could never take the me for anything. If Ginger was really his daughter, he would surely take


    responsibility.


    The official auction ended. Now, it was time for the additional items for the second round


    auction


    From the second floor, Mia scanned the additional items for bidding. Her eyes fixated on the reishi


    mushrooms. “That’s up for bidding too? No wonder so many people stay after the


    official auction.”


    The second round was generally a private auction, in which the host wouldn’t be responsible


    for any shams found.


    Therefore, fewer people would join the second round.


    Mia looked at the two men on the first floor. They hadn’t left.


    Were theying after the reishi mushrooms as well?


    Ginger climbed onto a stool to take a view of the first floor. “Mommy, Mister hasn’t gone


    “Yup. The auction is ending, Ginger. If you don’t have anything to buy, you’ll waste your apology gift.”


    Even if Ginger were to buy shams, Mia wanted Thanner to suffer a huge loss.


    “But I haven’t seen anything that I like.”


    Mia suggested, “Buy the most expensive one then.”


    Then, the second round began.


    Not many peoplepeted for the first few items. When the reishi mushrooms were taken onstage,


    many people began to pay attention.


    The auctioneer introduced the item, “These are precious reishi mushrooms. The initial bid price is one


    million dors.”


    “1.5 million dors.”


    “Two million dors.”


    The bidding soon reached up to a staggering five million dors.

    Right then, Timothy raised his number. “10 million dors.”


    The bid price stunned everyone.


    That was two times the previous bid price! It was mind–blowing to see someone bid such a high price.


    Mia was amused when he bid that much. “He really came here for the reishi mushrooms.”


    “Mommy, is his family sick?”


    “I’m sure, but that is possible.” People mostly purchased rreishi mushrooms to treat an illness.


    Ginger frowned, “Mommy, this seems to be the most expensive item. But should Ipete with Mister?


    Mia looked at her daughter. An idea shed across her mind. “Ginger, do you know how you can leave


    a deep impression on him?”
