At that moment, bidder number 12 stopped bidding, and bidder number 17 continued to raise the price to 4.8 million dollars.

Naomi feigned regret and persuaded, “Malcolm, it’s just a bracelet. It’s not worth more than 4 million dollars. Why don’t we stop bidding?”

Malcolm didn’t seem to hear her. With an aloof expression, he immediately raised the price to 6 million dollars.

At that moment, hushed gasps and whispers sounded from each room. They were all discussing bidder number one’s generous bids.

Naomi’s back straightened, and she was overjoyed.

Chadwick looked at her in confusion. “Don’t you like Lone Star’s Tear very much?”

Tabitha smiled faintly. “It’s not easy for Grandpa Alaric to make money. Even though he loves me, I can’t splurge money like this.”

However, she wondered which bidder was Colette. ‘Is she number one or number seventeen?‘ she mused.

Tabitha deserved the best things in the world no matter the cost.
