Chapter 626 Competing Auction Items
Eudora's heart skipped a beat. She couldn't help but feel nervous.
Thinking about the conversation she accidentally overheard between Laville and Chasel at the hospital
that day, she suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for Chasel's plight.
"Having a female companion for this event doesn't mean anything."
Eudora didn't care at all.
Chasel and Alva were seated behind Eudora. She sat in front, which made her feel somewhat self-
conscious.
After a while, the event began.
The host talked about the content and details of some charitable activities, and then the first auction
item was presented.
The first item on display was an antique vase, with a starting price of one million dollars, and eventually
sold for four million dollars.
Then came the second item...
The third item...
The fourth item...
The fifth item was a beautiful blue crystal necklace called "Angel's Tear." It was exquisitely crafted and
had the added significance of being associated with a love story. This made the necklace particularly
meaningful.
Eudora looked at the necklace and felt an inexplicable connection with it at just a glance. She even felt
a sudden excitement and an accelerated heartbeat.
"The starting price for this necklace is eight hundred thousand dollars!" The host announced.
Eudora immediately raised her sign. "Eight hundred and thirty thousand dollars."
As soon as she spoke, a voice behind her suddenly sounded. It was Chasel's voice. "Nine hundred
thousand dollars!"
Eudora couldn't help but glance back at Chasel. She saw that he no longer had the wicked smile he
used to have when facing her. Instead, his face displayed coldness and unfamiliarity. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
"Nine hundred and fifty thousand dollars."
Alva also shouted out a bid.
Eudora couldn't help but roll her eyes. These two must have some problem and always seemed to be
against her.
When the previous auction items were being sold, she didn't say anything, and the two people behind
her remained silent. So why, now the two behind her also join in when she spoke up with a bid?
"One million dollars!"
Just as Eudora was preparing to raise her bid, Jayleen increased the price directly to one million
dollars!
Although it was an auction and anyone could bid, she still felt a hint of hostility.
She didn't speak up again.
But people continued to bid...
"One million and thirty thousand dollars."
"One million and fifty thousand dollars."
"I bid one million, two hundred thousand dollars."
...
The price kept soaring, eventually reaching a high bid of seven million and five hundred thousand
dollars, far exceeding the necklace's original price.
Although the necklace was exquisitely crafted, the quality of the sapphire was average.
The bid of five hundred thousand dollars came from Jayleen.
After she bid, no one else raised the price.
The auctioneer announced. "Ms. Farrell has bid five hundred thousand dollars. Is anyone else bidding?
Alright, five hundred thousand dollars going once... Five hundred thousand dollars going twice..."
The host said with a long ending tone as he continued to announce.
Meanwhile, for some reason, Eudora felt like an invisible force was pulling her toward the necklace.
After hesitating for a moment, Eudora, who hadn't bid for a long time, raised her bidding sign. "Sev..."
"Ten million dollars!"
