Chapter 264
Betrayal At the Altar by Dolores Delia
Chapter 265 The Sexy And Charming Redhead The highly anticipated queenâs crown finally appeared as the auction items were sold quickly and smoothly.
The originally noisy hall instantly became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Everyone looked at Seth, the auctioneer, and listened to him patiently and attentively as he explained a few details about the queenâs crown.
However, Seth only explained the appearance of the queenâs crown without saying anything about its origins or historical background.
It was not that he deliberately hid it, but the owner of the queenâs crown had never mentioned it.
Even so, it successfully piqued everyoneâs curiosity.
âTonightâs last auction item is the queenâs crown in imitation of the Ming Dynasty. The starting price is 12 million dollars, and the bidding begins now!â
As Seth finished speaking, the people present began to bid, not giving in to each other.
The price of the queenâs crown soared to 30 million dollars.
Sitting in the back row, Darcy looked at the people who raised their signs to bid before him. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.
He did not expect the queenâs crown to be so hotly contested as this As Darcy pondered, the price of the queenâs crown continued to soar.
Seth, who was standing on the stage, was sweating profusely.
The current bid for the queenâs crown was 40 million dollars, well above their initial estimate.
He calmly looked at the crowd below the stage, and his gaze finally landed on Darcy.
No matter how much the people present competed, they could not win against Darcy.
After all, these were only intermediate members. They were not worth mentioning in front of a topâtier member.
After five minutes of competition, most people had no choice but to lose.
Only three people were still competing with each other.
Someone shouted, â62 million dollars!â
â64 million dollars!â
â70 million dollars!â
His words caused an uproar in the surroundings.
Louis and the others sitting below the stage could not help but be curious.
âThe queenâs crown doesnât look very valuable. Are these people stupid and rich?â Jane muttered in confusion.
Oliviaâs expression was calm. There was a light smile on her face the entire time. She looked innocent and harmless.
At the Fujiby auction, there was never a shortage of news, nor was there a shortage of rich and willful people.
However, it was unheard of for the unidentified queenâs crown to be called out at a skyâhigh price of 70 million dollars.
Whether it was the extremely rare blue diamond from before or the pair of 19thâcentury butterfly diamond necklaces that appeared later, there was a lot of room for value addition.
Louis looked at Olivia. âWhat exactly is the origin of the queenâs crown?â
Olivia shook her head gently. âNo matter what its origin is, the topâtier members have not bid on it so far. From this, it can be seen that the queenâs crown has no room for value.â
Her voice was neither loud nor soft, and the others around her heard her.
The surrounding people immediately felt that it made sense and nodded in agreement.
At the Fujiby auction, if a topâtier member were to bid on it, it would be equivalent to admitting that the item was a rare treasure.
If not, it meant it wasnât worth a single cent.
Thinking of it, everyone could not help but show some gloating smiles, waiting to watch the show.
Seth, standing on the stage, looked around at everyone. He raised his small hammer and repeated the bid just now. â76 million dollars going once...â
â100 million dollars!â A charming voice sounded faint.
Everyone could not help but gasp and turn to look at the woman.
The woman had fiery red hair and looked sexy and charming in a tube top dress. She was completely different from the other topâtier membersâ auction butlers.
Everyone could not help but be curious. Who the hell was the woman?
