The bidding event continued after Kayla and Christian left, and close to the end, Ashley excused herself to use the restroom.
She found it amusing, if not slightly annoying that she'd lost the Van Gogh's Starry Night painting, which she had planned to buy for her grandpa, to none other than Lorenzo.

In the end, they both lost to him at $26 million. Since then, Lorenzo had been grinning like he'd just won the lottery. Ashley couldn't deny he was a little infuriating. He'd also bought the diamond ring Christian had made a fuss over, and she couldn't help but wonder what he planned to do with it. Lorenzo Grey was the true definition of petty.
