Chapter 725
Now, the price of the necklace had exceeded Joseph's budget.
Elizabeth glanced at Joseph and saw that he was gently rubbing the bridge of his nose, looking a little
troubled.She knew he did not want to spend any more money than this.
"6.2 million, calling once, calling twice-"
The bid manager waited for no man, and just as he was about to yell again, Elizabeth couldn't bear it
and raised her paddle.
"7 million!"
She did not believe that anyone would follow her that far.
The young man seemed to have been stunned and was silent.
Just as Elizabeth thought she had won, he called out again, '7.2 million!"
Just like before, the young man only raised another 200,000 dollars.

"Is he doing this on purpose?!' However, she had no idea who he was, so why was he trying to go
against her? Regardless of whether the necklace was worth that much, she was starting to worry if
Joseph would even pay now that it had exceeded the given budget.
With the price of the necklace, everyone's attention was on the two bidders.
Some whispered discussion was heard from the crowd.
"Look at her.Is she afraid now? What is she trying to prove? Does she really think she's a rich man's
wife?"
"Exactly.How arrogant of her.She's just a mistress.That man's money is still under his wife's
control.There's no way she could spend such a big amount."
"She's just a pastime.Does she really think she’s a big shot? A necklace for more than 7 million?
There's no way he'll buy it for her!"
"Haha, what a joke!"
Each word, each sentence, was like a stab to Elizabeth's heart.Her eyes started to turn red, and her
chest puffed out in anger.She determined right then that she was going for the win as if to release all
the pent-up resentment of the years prior.She did not even bother to glance at Joseph as she raised
her paddle without hesitation.
"10 million!"
Instead of bidding a million each time, she decided to take a leap.
A stillness descended over the crowd as soon as she declared her price.
Everyone knew that this price far exceeded the value of the necklace itself.
This necklace wasn't worth 10 million at all.
However, the auctioneer was riled up and shouted in a trembling voice, "10 million! Are any bids higher
than 10 million? The price of this sapphire necklace is now 10 million.The final caller is...Mr.Tanner.Is
there anyone else who'd like to raise this price? 10 million, calling once, calling twice..."
The auctioneer eyed the young man, who was fighting with Elizabeth, seeming a little agitated.

However, the young man did not call for another bid this time.
He bowed his head as if discussing something and perhaps decided it was not worth calling out a
higher offer.
"10 million, sold!"
With this final statement, the necklace was auctioned off at the exorbitant price of 10 million dollars.
The camera lights began to flash, and Elizabeth beamed.
She felt like she had finally released the anger she had been holding in as she waved at the cameras
victoriously.
At this moment, she turned to look at the man who had been going against her just now and found that
he had disappeared.
She had no idea if he had moved or left out of anger.
Whatever the case was, she won this time, and the limelight was on her.
To Elizabeth, this was worth 10 million dollars!
