Chapter 766
Still, Bruce was not interested in those auction items until the last one.
It was also the highlight of the day.
A seventeenth-century Ekitian mummy.
In the end, Bruce got it for 6 million dollars.
After the transaction was successful, the auction was coming to an end.
Aria didn’t understand his decision. She couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “Bruce, why are you auctioning a mummy?”
Bruce smiled. “It’s nothing. I want to collect it. I’m personally interested in it.”
Aria was even more puzzled.
Bruce was not an archeologist, much less a collector of special items.
She couldn’t understand why he would pay such a high price to auction off a mummy that was hundreds of years old,
Snap! Snap!
The auction ended.
Bruce and Aria walked out of the venue and were photographed by the media again.
Soon, the photo of the two of them was posted on the media all over the world.
At Sherane Bay Villa, Greyport.
Joanna saw the photo of Bruce and Aria.
Seeing them standing together intimately at the auction, Joanna was instantly stunned.
She… had really overestimated her importance in Bruce’s heart.
She guessed that after the two of them broke up, he would look for Aria to continue their relationship, but she didn’t expect them to progress so quickly.
Still, that was also his usual style.
Giving expensive jewelry to women and capturing their hearts was his usual trick.
There was probably no woman in the world who could resist expensive jewelry. Moreover, such a generous show of love.
Joanna felt a dull pain in her heart.
Her three children surrounded her and Devin and chattered non-stop. “Mommy, where did Daddy go?”
Joanna fell silent.
Lilia said cutely, “Daddy is on a business trip. He told us before he left.”
“Huh? Why didn’t I know?” Irvin was dumbfounded.
“Mommy, when is Daddy coming back?”
Joanna remained silent.
“Hey, Mommy, look. Daddy is on the news again.”
“Mommy, who is this pretty auntie? Why is she so close to Daddy?”
Seeing the news, Davian and Lilia’s faces darkened.
Previously, Roxanne and Jennie had been pestering Daddy.
They were worried that it was another woman with ulterior motives.
“Mommy…”
“Stop watching TV and go to sleep.”
“Oh, oh…”
The children returned gloomily to the bedroom.
Irvin asked dejectedly, “Davian, is Daddy having an affair again?”
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
“Sigh, I’ve said it before. Daddy likes beauties. Look, it’s true.”
“In the media reports, that auntie is really pretty. It’s normal for Daddy to have an affair!”

Davian’s expression changed. “How can you say that about Daddy?”
“Let’s think of a way to matchmake Daddy and Mommy. We can’t let Daddy do anything wrong.”
“It’s not as serious as you think. Daddy has a strong relationship with Mommy and will not fall in love with another woman so easily!”
Irvin was disdainful and said slyly, “That’s hard to say. Don’t you see that Mommy has been very unhappy for the past two days?”
When Davian heard that, he felt especially conflicted.
They did not want their daddy and mommy’s relationship to be in danger again, nor did they want another woman to be their stepmother.
“We’ll ask Mommy tomorrow…”
At a secret research lab in Eighcaster.
“This is the RA-3 virus!”
“We have to find a way to transport it back to the country!”
Bruce frowned. “I’ve already thought of a way.”
“What is it?”
“Disintegrate it and disguise it in the package containing the mummy!”
After all, mummies were ancient corpses. During the transportation process, a large amount of chemicals were needed to protect it from bacteria and prevent it from decaying and drying up.
