Chapter 601
“I…” The boy was shy, and when she questioned him like this, he was like a child who did something wrong. “I’m
sorry, I…
I’ll go buy you a present.” He got up and ran quickly. Meredith laughed while looking at his embarrassed
appearance. She smiled, but tears started to flow. One boy was not enough to erase the memory of her motherly
instincts. She was still very sad!
Feeling sad and awful, she leaned on the sofa and fell asleep.
Inside the auction room. Josiah looked at the items in the booklet. Almost all the items that were supposed to be on
stage appeared, but the emerald hairpin, which was supposed to be the finale, was long gone. He leaned over and
asked the manager of the organizer next to him impatiently, “Why haven’t the emerald hairpins been released?”
The manager of the organizer hurriedly said, “Mister Josiah, are you waiting for that emerald hairpin? I’ll go check

to see when it will be released.”
The manager came back not long after he left, and said with an unpleasant expression, “I’m really sorry, Mister
Josiah, the hairpin you wanted has been bought privately.” “What did you say?” Josiah’s face sank slightly. He stared
at the manager and asked, “Who bought it?”
“Well…” The manager shook his head. “This is confidential, and I don’t know.” Josiah got up from the sofa and said
angrily, “I don’t care how you do it, get me the hairpin immediately!”
This was the VIP room in the attic, and the manager shivered. He bowed to Josiah embarrassedly and said, “Mister
Josiah, I really can’t do this, it is said that the other party bought it at several times the expected price. It seems
that this person also places great importance on this hairpin…” Josiah said flatly, “No matter what the price, I want
it.” In the past, the manager would be overjoyed to be serving such a prolific person, but right now… It was really
difficult!
“I…I’m going to ask the other party if he is willing to sell.” The manager walked away helplessly, and shortly after,
he returned.

He said apologetically, “I’m sorry, Mister Josiah… I couldn’t get hold of him.”
In fact, he could not even get in touch with the buyer, and he did not even have a chance to ask him if he would sell
it.
“Why don’t you look at other items, Mister Josiah?” The manager pointed at a bracelet on the pamphlet and said,
“If Mister Josiah is giving it to Mrs. Shelby, this is also very beautiful and fits Mrs. Shelby’s temperament very well,
and…”
“Get out of here!” Josiah kicked the chair beside his feet angrily and said, “You made me wait here all night just to
tell me that I have nothing left? Now you’re asking me to buy something else?”
“I am sorry.” “What’s the use of being sorry? Can you get me the hairpin back?!” Josiah was furious not because he
had to wait here all night, but that the hairpin was gone! What was there in this world that Josiah could not buy? It
just did not make sense! In the lounge.

Charlie held his face with his hand as he stared at the woman. He had been staring at her for more than half an
hour.
When he went in, Meredith had already fallen asleep on the sofa. He could not bear to wake her up, so he had no
choice but to wait quietly. He watched quietly by the side, and when he saw the scars that she could not cover up
even with a mask, he could not help but feel a little distressed.

It was no wonder that every time he saw her, she seemed to have a story to tell. It turned out that that it was all
true.
His cell phone rang.
In order to avoid waking Meredith, he quickly picked up the call. On the other end of the phone, his teammate had
an urgent tone, telling him to hurry over and prepare to perform on stage soon.
Charlie glanced at the time, the auction was about to end soon. It was indeed time for him to perform on stage.
Still reluctant to wake her up, Charlie sighed softly.
He lowered his head and took the emerald hairpin out of the box, and pinned it carefully on Meredith’s bun.
The pure-colored emerald hairpin was pinned to her jet-black bun. It was chic and beautiful, and it really suited her
very well. No wonder she liked it.
