Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Chapter 68

At the auction.

Valeria followed Hackett to the inner venue of the auction. The auction today was no small matter. Those who could enter this place were either rich or noble.

Valeria sat beside Hackett, but her mind was elsewhere.

The first item up for auction was an emerald bracelet, exquisitely designed with a touch of mystery, originating from Celestic.

The commentator at the auction was explaining the origin of this bracelet, saying. "The designer of this bracelet is a renowned jewelry master from Silverbrook. She spent three years crafting this piece and gave it the prestigious name 'Unparalleled, symbolizing perfect love. Moreover, if given to the most beloved person, it promises happiness and fulfillment. Bidding starts at 14 million dollars.

14 million dollars?

The commentator spoke a lot, but Valeria did not listen to a single word. She only listened to the number 14 million dollars

This was too expensive. It was crazy to spend 14 million dollars to buy such a bracelet.

Hackett's dark eyes were fixed on the bracelet in the display case as if he were staring at his prey.

Hackett lowered his eyes and glanced at Valeria's wrist. It seemed to be missing a bracelet as an accessory.

Valeria only wanted to get through this boring auction as soon as possible. She could not stay any longer.

Unexpectedly, the man beside Valeria suddenly raised his bidder's paddle, catching the auctioneer's attention immediately "Very well! The gentleman at Table 6 has bid, starting at 14 million dollars. Do we have any further bids!"

Valeria was stunned. She looked at Hackett's handsome side profile. "Are you crazy? Why are you bidding on this?"

Was Hackett going to give is to Valeria?

Valeria did not know why she had such a thought.

Then, Hackett said coldly. "It's none of your business. It's not for you anyway."

"That's good." Valeria still felt relieved.
