Chapter 623: The Arrangement of Fate (4000 words)

All became silent in the square of Notre Dame de Paris in an instant.

The ladies who originally planned to bid for "the first coupon" were all stunned on the spot—Who is this? She's clearly not playing by the rules!

Normally, everyone would raise the bid by one or two thousand, or two or three thousand francs, gradually pushing the atmosphere to a climax. In the end, a few wealthy young ladies, none willing to back down, would turn red-faced in competition, and one, in a moment of heated excitement, would call out a shockingly high price, crushing all opponents...

But at that moment, someone had jumped in by adding more than 30,000, skyrocketing the price to the frightful height of 40,000 francs!

In the square, everyone craned their necks to look towards the direction from where "40,000 francs" had been bid. Most could only see a black and white lace long dress, while those in a closer position saw the beautiful face of the dress's owner that made them forget to breathe.
