Chapter One
Ryan Gregory had pushed the atmosphere to its peak; a fixed price of 700 million had already deterred many, with lesser households that only had tens of millions in assets wanting to join in for the excitement, to try their luck, but they hadn't expected this prince to open the bidding at over a hundred million—astoundingly high prices.
Auctions always started at lower prices, gradually increasing.
However, Ryan Gregory directly raised the price of the "Heart of the Ocean"...
Sofia Hamilton was astonished as she looked at Ryan Gregory, thinking he had gone mad.
Spending 700 million on a necklace?
The host on stage, seeing the silent crowd below, asked with a smile, "Does anyone else wish to bid?"
Still, silence reigned...
"700 million once!"
"700 million twice!"
"800 million!"
Someone wiped the sweat from their forehead and raised their bid card, instantly becoming the focus of the entire venue.
