Samantha was shocked that a hairpin can cost more than half a billion dollars, and it was increasing. Alex saw Samantha looking at the hairpin fervently and asked: "Do you want it? I can get it for you."
Samantha, like any girl in the world, loves jewelry. She dreamed that a man would gift jewelry to her without asking. Samantha shook her head: "No need."
Alex felt something was not right, but he ignored it and looked at the auction. The price kept increasing until it reached one billion dollars and only one was left standing.
Mary said: "Going Once, Going Twice, So--"
"Two billion dollars." a cold voice rang at the entrance of the auction house. Everyone looked, and some revealed a shocked expression, and some revealed a confused expression. Mary Walton said: "Mr. Makos, I thought you would not accept our invite."
The man has black hair and yellow eyes. His facial features suit his name because it is flawless like a god. The man is Zeus Makos and was also called Wealth God. Some people say that Zeus was richer and some say that Alex was richer and a fight broke out.
Zeus went straight to the stage, and Mary handed the hairpin in a gift box. Zeus said: "I will hand the money tomorrow."
Mary shook her head and said: "No need to pay, but can I ask what are you going to use the hairpin for?"
Zeus said calmly: "A gift."
"A gift for whom?"
"A gift for a girl I am pursuing,"
Mary said happily: "Then I hope that the woman you are pursuing will accept your love."
Zeus nodded and took out a small piece of paper that has some words written to it and put it inside the box before handing the box back to Mary. He said: Please pass this onto Samantha."
Mary was surprised and said: "But I thought that this is for the girl you are pursuing?"
Alex explained: "Samantha is the one I am pursuing."
Mary was shocked and returned to normal. She called an attendant, and the attendant knocked three times before entering and gave the gift box to the stupefied Samantha. She still can't believe what just happened.
Zeus saw that the gift was successfully given and he headed towards the exit. Samantha looked at the gift box with an incredulous expression. After the diamond ring earlier, now this?
Samantha opened the gift box, and a note greeted her. [Will you marry me now?~Zeus] The letter says. Alex took a glimpse of the message and furrowed his brows. Samantha did not want to wear the diamond ring because it will incur suspicions, but now that the diamond hairpin is given and known by the public, she can wear it.
Samantha placed the hairpin on her hair and took a picture. Alex looked at her and said: "I thought you don't like jewelry?"
Samantha shook her head and said: "Of course I want jewelry, but I learned not to ask for it."
Alex felt like he is learning about Samantha more and more. Alex nodded. Now he knows that Samantha does not like men to ask if she wants it and get it for her.
They went home and saw Alex's father with the sleeping Samuel. Joseph noticed Samantha and stood up from the bed and walked towards them. He said: "I better leave now."
Joseph patted Alex before leaving. Samantha looked at the peaceful Samuel and felt that life now is good. She then felt a big hand hug her.
