Marvin was also taken aback. “What? William is competing with you for the bid? Why would a manlike him be interested in purchasing a butterfly necklace?”

Millie didn’t respond. She considered it normal for someone like William, who indulged in one–nightstands, to purchase a pricey necklace for a woman. She was confident that he must be quite a hitwith women in Musbane.

Millie couldn’t help but smirk as William placed his bid. Without hesitation, she raised the price evenhigher. “20 million.”

William continued, “21 million.”

Millie was amused. “22 million.”

William called out again, “25 million.”

No one in the auction hall was bidding anymore. All eyes turned to room three and room six, wherea blond man and a charming woman engaged in a fierce battle over a butterfly necklace. It wasfascinating.

Millie glared at William and scoffed. “He can have it.”

It was absolutely not worth spending 25 million on this necklace. The scoundrel got the short end ofthe

stick.

Marvin gave Millie a thumbs up, silently showing approval. “With 25 million, we could even buy acustom- made necklace.”

Millie stopped bidding. William calmly grinned, waiting to win the necklace.

“25 million going once.”

“25 million going twice.”

With a firm grip on the hammer, the auctioneer was ready to make the third call. William wasdrinking red wine, thinking he had secured the deal. Then, the auctioneer announced, “Someone bid30 million, the

ceiling price.”

The auction hall was filled with shocked silence. The ceiling price for the item was set at 30 million,meaning whoever bid that amount would win. Spending 30 million on a necklace was incredibly

extravagant.

However, the most frustrated person in the hall was William. He nearly secured the bid at 25 million,but someone ended up outbidding him.

William glanced out as the auctioneer’s voice rang out once more, declaring, “This item belongs toroom nine.”

Everyone was searching for room nine. Millie glanced up to see room number nine. Wasn’t it theroom across from hers? Was it the man smoking outside the bathroom?

Marvin sighed. “30 million for a butterfly necklace? It’s good to be rich.”

Millie remained silent, her gaze locked onto the man across the room. Behind her mask, herexpression

betrayed a profound intensity. “Marvin, take note of this man. We’ll purchase that necklace from himlater.”

Marvin quickly nodded. “Okay.”

William gazed at room nine furiously. “Who is in room nine?”

“Mr. Pearson, it’s Mr. Greer.” William’s assistant reminded him.

William got angry and put down the glass. He exclaimed coldly in Encerian, “What’s Winstonthinking? Doesn’t he know I’m buying this necklace for a woman? How dare he snatch it away? Thisis too much!”

At that moment, Winston gazed at William, raising his glass as a gesture of apology. He decided topurchase this necklace. Winston drank his red wine and noticed William’s anger, but he secretlysneered. William was annoyed and didn’t bother to respond to him. He just patted the sofa.

The assistant reassured him, saying, “Please, Mr. Pearson, don’t be upset. Aspher is currently upfor auction. Mr. Greer brought it here specifically because he knew how much you liked the herb.”

William felt calmer after hearing that and crossed his arms. “Hmm, really? Seems like he still has agood head on his shoulder.”

He had been searching for Yerwick’s rare medicinal herb, Aspher, for years but couldn’t replace it.
