Mia Ashworth listened to the escalating bids with a slight sigh of relief. Thankfully, she came

well–prepared this time. Otherwise, facing this pack of wolves, she couldn’t have secured the Tears

of the Rose. Her grip tightened around the bidding paddle, and then, with a firm yet unassertive

She feared someone might further escalate the bidding. Her worries materialized when a middle–aged

Mia bit her lip, refusing to back down, “Four hundred million!”

Those who had contemplated vying for the Tears of the Rose shook their heads in resignation as the price soared to four hundred million, with no signs of stopping. They turned their heads, now keenly interested in the bidding war between Mia Ashworth and the middle–aged man.
