NovelBookChapter 392 Chapter 392 The crowd turned in shock at the sound of the new voice.
They had been expecting a wealthy heir from Saintornia, but instead, a young man stood before them-someone they didn't recognize. Murmurs rippled through the room.

She whispered, "Gabriel, are you crazy? Where are you getting that kind of money?" "Don't worry. If I'm making an offer, I can afford it," Gabriel replied confidently.
Damon glanced over his shoulder at Gabriel, his eyes narrowing dangerously.
Their gazes locked, and for a brief moment, the air between them crackled with unspoken tension.
Valarie, equally stunned, quickly turned to Nyla. "Nyla, your brother's been abroad for years. When did he get so rich? I should've gone abroad too." Nyla was at a loss for words. She was just as shocked by Gabriel's sudden bid. After all, he'd only been renting a place since returning from abroad. He didn't seem to possess such vast wealth. Could he be trying to outbid Damon to get back at him for dumping her? But if Damon stopped bidding, Gabriel would be on the hook for 20,000,000 dollars. How would he cup with that kind of money? Damon raised his paddle once more. "30,000,000 dollars!" Without hesitation, Gabriel countered, "40,000,000 dollars!" "50,000,000 dollars!" "60,000,000 dollars!" "100,000,000 dollars!" When Gabriel shouted this final figure, the room fell as silent as a tomb. No piece of jewelry was worth that much.
The bidding war between Gabriel and Damon had spiraled into madness, driving the price to an astronomical 100,000,000 dollars! Valarie glanced at the jewelry and then at the current bidding price, feeling that the piece seemed ordinary in comparison. What couldn't she do with that kind of money? Unable to contain herself, she turned to Nyla and whispered, "Is your brother insane? Even if he sold himself, he couldn't cup with that kind of money!" Gabriel had only been studying abroad for a few years-how could he possibly have that much money? Nyla shook her head. "I don't know." In truth, she also thought Gabriel had lost his mind. She couldn't believe he could amass so much money. Was he really willing to jeopardize his future over a moment of anger? en Seeing Damon still intent on bidding, Rebecca subconsciously grabbed his hand and whispered, "Damon, don't bid any higher. This jewelry is worth at most 10,000,000 dollars, and it's already far beyond its value. But seeing you bid so much for me, I'm really touched..." Without a word, Damon pulled his hand away and raised his paddle. "200,000,000 dollars!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe auctioneer was nearly incoherent with excitement. He had never m anticipated the price reaching such heights. This was a career-defining moment for him! "200,000,000 dollars, going once! Any more bids?!" "200,000,000 dollars, going twice!" Finally, the auctioneer's gavel cdown with a decisive thud.
"200,000,000 dollars, going three times! Congratulations to No. 28 for winning the auction at 200,000,000 dollars!" As the final word echoed through the room, the atmosphere erupted into lively chatter.
"Oh my god! My heart almost stopped. 200,000,000 dollars! All this for just a smile from Rebecca! Why am I not Damon's girlfriend?"
"This is the most expensive auction I've ever seen. Damon must really adore Rebecca to spend 200,000,000 dollars without a second thought."
"I don't see what's so special about Rebecca. How did she manage to get Damon, to spend 200,000,000 dollars on a piece of jewelry just because she said she liked it?" The surrounding conversations all focused on Damon and Rebecca.
Overwhelmed with emotion, Rebecca smiled and looked at Damon with a mix of excitement and admiration.
