Chapter 44


Chapter 44:

“Fifty million!” The auctioneer’s voice rang out. “Mr. Eric Watson has placed a bid of fifty million for the necklace. Is there anyone here willing to outbid him?”

The auctioneer said, “Ladies and gentlemen, brace yourselves, for this necklace is not just a piece of jewelry — it’s a legend. Crafted by a master jeweler over years, it boasts the finest diamonds and the rarest gemstones, a testament to unparalleled artistry. Its history is rich, having adorned royalty at some of the most significant events, symbolizing an era of regal power and timeless grace.”

The crowd hung on every word, eyes glowing with desire. A woman gasped, unable to contain herself. “This is unreal! Imagine owning such a treasure—what a dream!” Another woman breathed in sharply, her gaze locked on the necklace. “It’s captivating. How extraordinary it would feel to wear it, to have it draped around my neck.”

“Sloane is lucky to have Eric. A future filled with unimaginable wealth and luxury awaits her.”

As murmurs of admiration and jealousy filled the air, Sloane smiled, her chin lifted high. Every move she made to win Eric, every calculated effort to make him her fiancé, had been for this very moment—a moment that fed her vanity like nothing else could. Her eyes were already dancing with anticipation, planning how she would claim the spotlight once the necklace was hers.

The auctioneer continued calling out bids.
