“This has always been the motivation behind Alexa’s jewelry design. Being a loyal fan of her work, Iplan
to follow in her footsteps this way.
“I hope this gesture also maximizes the kindness Ms. Betty has shown me by giving me such aprecious gift,” stated Ada.novelbin
Betty couldn’t publicly deny that any longer. All she wanted was for a hole to open up in the ground andswallow her up.
“Madam Ada has decided that, on account of the meaning and gravitas of this piece crafted by Alexa
herself, there will be no minimum bidding amount!” the auctioneer announced.
“30 million,” a clear voice rang out. Jameson raised his paddle, a smile on his face.
30 million?
That was the highest starting bid of the night so far!
Were they planning to go up to billions?
Alexa’s creations were indeed worth that price, but it was still an exorbitant amount.
“50 million.” Jasper slowly raised his paddle, his expression calm save for a glint of ferocity in his eyes.
The crowd was shocked by his bid.
A 20 million jump?
Was Jasper in the line of money-printing or something?
Some potential bidders instantly deflated, giving up their bids.
Jameson raised his paddle again. “70 million.”
It was clear now that he was going head-to-head with Jasper.
“90 million.”
“100 million.”
A wave of gasps and cries rang throughout the hall. It became apparent to them that the Schmidtfamily.
was in the money-printing fine, too. It was as clear as day.
Alyssa’s lips were stretched thin as she quietly watched everything transpire. Her eyes were dark.
“I don’t think these two intend to bid. They seem more like they’re in some silent duel,” Yves pointedout.
“Yeah, do they think we’re some sort of Wild West highway showdown at high noon?”
Alyssa really wanted to stand up and teach the two a lesson right now.
Meanwhile, Sophia was in utter shock.
“Didn’t you say Jameson Schmidt was useless in his family, never getting a single cent? He bid one
hundred million!” Betty asked. All the blood had left her cheeks.
Sophia was truly at a loss for words.
Had she been wrong this whole time?
Was Jameson’s background all an elaborate lie?
“120 million,” Jasper retorted flatly. He needed to get one of Alexa’s creations no matter what.
“150.” Alyssa’s voice rang out loud in the hall as she raised her paddle.
