Chapter 471 A Pricey Request
1/4
“There’s something I really like at tonight’s auction. But as you know, I’m not really up for crowds these days.”
Anne handed the auction invitation to Meryl. “Meryl, could you go for me?”
Another auction… Meryl had a hunch.
She opened the invitation. As expected, it was hosted by the Powell family.
“What have you set your sights on?”
“A bracelet. I’m due in two months… It’s a gift for myself.” Anne touched her prominently rounded belly.
Meryl nodded. Anne had always been someone who valued rituals.
Childbirth was a tough endeavor. It was only fair for her to reward herself with some jewelry..
However, when she learned that the bracelet was valued at fifty million dollars, she was taken aback.
What kind of bracelet could be worth fifty million dollars?
It was practically highway robbery!
“Don’t be so surprised just yet.”

Meryl, please make sure you get it for me, please!”
Meryl took the card, thinking, “Anne must have received a substantial settlement after divorcing Dante, to be spending so freely. Buy it! There’s nothing more important in life than happiness. Besides, money is meant to be spent!”

Anne said, “It’s just an auction, but it’s attended by the elite. Is Chandler free to go with you? Dress to impress him!”
Anne had heard quite a few rumors around Kingsdom.
As Meryl’s best friend, she was genuinely concerned that Chandler and Meryl’s relationship might be affected.
Chandler…
Meryl’s heart sank, and she didn’t respond.
Apparently, Anne had been idle at home lately. She was even more excited to bring in a styling team to dress Meryl up, treating her like a Barbie doll.
The stylists first gave her a complete body beauty treatment and then applied beautiful makeup. Meryl cooperated, sitting in front of the mirror as the stylists dressed her up.
Finally, after careful selection, the stylist brought out an exquisite pure white satin dress and placed it in front of her.
It looked like tailor–made for Meryl, perfectly matching her temperament.
“Kevin is my chief stylist from my modeling days! Many stars

actors love his styles, and it’s hard to get an appántment with him. He just happened to be off today, and 1 dragged him here, Trust me. Kevin will definitely make you shine and darde everyone’s eyes!”
Looking at the dress in front of her, Meryl couldn’t help but wonder if she was going to an auction or a beauty pageant.
However, dressing up beautifully did lift her spirits.
At least, she had forgotten entirely about what happened at Galaxy Holdings Group at noon.
Meryl was only recently pregnant, and her stomach was still flat. She didn’t look like a pregnant woman at all.
The dress made her look elegant and noble.
Anne’s eyes brightened. Meryl rarely dressed up so grandly. Even as a woman, she felt a bit envious. Chandler would definitely be captivated by her!
Handing Meryl the clutch, Anne gestured for her to call Chandler to pick her up.
Meryl hesitated and then dialed Chandler’s number.
No one answered. Meryl felt a bit downcast as she lowered her
eyes.
She put away her phone and said casually, “Forget it. I’ll take a taxi. He must be busy with something.”
Meryl vaguely remembered Chandler mentioning he had an
