My Wife is a Hacker novel Chapter 187

Chapter 187

The diamond got so much attention for no other reason than its extreme beauty.

The crystal-clear diamond, internally flawless, reflected a pale pink light.

Anyone in the know would instantly recognize it at a glance.

The blonde looked at the covetous faces of the audience with delight.

She raised the auction hammer in the air and proclaimed loudly, “The Moon House has set this pink diamond reserved price at fifty-million dollars.”

There was an instant uproar.

But those who came here are not ordinary people.

Most of them were nonchalant at hearing the reserved price.

After all, it was a ten-carat, flawless pink diamond, and it had not been named yet.

The reserved price could be said to be very fair.

Soon someone held up a sign and said, “Fifty-one million.”

Zeke looked at the beautiful diamond and struggled internally.

He was contemplating bidding for it first and asked the old man for money later!

Nicole read his expression and asked, “You want it?”

Zeke looked at her and hesitated to tell her he wanted to give it to her.

But still, nodded at last.

Just as the two were talking, the price had been raised to sixty-five million dollars.

Nicole squinted at the pink diamond, and before she could hit the button, someone next door had raised the bid.

Every private box had a wide-screen display showing the bidding prices, and people could place their bids from the private box.

Every time the price was raised, a bell would ring.

Whenever people inside the private box placed their bids, the smaller bidders basically knew they had lost the bid for the item.

Fortunately, so far, the bidders in the private boxes had only intervened a few times.

Hearing the eighty-million-dollar price tag, Chloe, who unabashedly followed Jared into the Box One, gritted her teeth.

Her entire net worth was almost only eighty million dollars.

If the bid increments only a couple of millions, she might still have hope.

But the other bidders raised the bid by ten million dollars each time.

She really could not afford it.

Chloe looked with pleading eyes at Jared, who was sitting listlessly in the box.

He squinted, looking not too happy as he gazed at the auction floor.
