Chapter 405
As Mr. Anderson left, Vivian and Charlotte stared intently at Sarah's retreating figure, unable to believe how
thoroughly they'd been played.
"Stop right there!"
Just as Sarah and Melvin were about to leave, Vivian called out loudly, "Sarah!"
"What else does Miss Wilson want to say? The auction is over."
"lI don't need you to remindthat the auction is over. What surprisesis how calculating you are. I'm
impressed by how well you played me. But | want to know who told you about Pine Mist Island. Was it Zachary?"

"You betrayed me?" Vivian narrowed her eyes.
Charlotte backed away nervously as Vivian approached step by step, cornering her.
As Charlotte tried to escape, Vivian suddenly raised her hand and struck her hard. With a sharp crack, Charlotte
felt her cheek burning with pain.
She held her cheek in disbelief, staring at the cold-eyed Vivian as tears streamed down her face. "You hit me?
