Chapter 391 Chapter 391 Rebecca blushed slightly and whispered, "You've already boughtso many pieces of jewelry tonight. You've spent too much money. I just thought this set was pretty. I don't want you to spend any more." Even as she spoke, her gaze kept drifting back to the jewelry on stage, her eyes betraying her unspoken desire.
At that moment, Valarie raised her paddle and, through gritted teeth, said, "9,000,000 dollars!" This was her limit. Any higher, and she wouldn't be able to keep bidding. Her offer was a significant jump from the previous bid, and the room fell into an eerie silence as all eyes turned to her. No one immediately raised their paddles.
Valarie gripped hers tightly, silently praying that no one else would bid.
"9,000,000 dollars, going once!" A few others interested in the jewelry hesitated, unsure if they wanted to raise the stakes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe set was undeniably beautiful, and owning it would make anyone the center of attention at any event. But 9,000,000 dollars? Spending that much on jewelry seemed excessive. "9,000,000 dollars, going twice!" Nervous sweat gathered in Valarie's palms. She was just one call away from winning.
Rebecca bit her lip, her face pale, and her eyes shimmered with frustration. She hadn't expected that, despite her clear hints, Damon would remain unmoved.
In the past, he would have bought her anything she showed the slightest interest in. Now, he wouldn't even buy her a single piece of jewelry, and the money meant nothing to him! The more she thought about it, the more upset she became, tears welling up in her eyes.
Just as the auctioneer raised the gavel to announce, "9,000,000 dollars, going three times!" Damon suddenly raised his paddle.
"15,000,000 dollars!" Damon's bid was like a stone dropped into a calm lake, causing a huge stir.
The room erupted in murmurs.
At the mention of that figure, Valarie's face went pale. She stared in disbelief, hardly able to comprehend what she had just heard. 15,000,000 dollars was far beyond her budget.
Rebecca turned to Damon in shock, not expecting him to raise his bid at the last moment. She knew it he still had feelings for her.
"Damon..." Her eyes sparkled with excitement and joy. The sadness that had nearly brought her to tears moments ago now shifted into tears of happiness.
She could already feel the envious gazes of those around her. After all, no one else would spend so much money just for her.

Valarie clenched her fists, her breathing quickening. She kept her eyes on Damon's back frustration swelling within her. She had no choice but to give up on the jewelry set, as she simply didn't have that kind of money. "15,000,000 dollars, going twice!" the auctioneer called again, his voice now tinged with tension.
