Unrepairable Love
Chapter 365
“Alright, folks, grab a seat. The auction’s kicking off!”
The robot zipped over to Elizabeth.
That bracelet looked way better in person than in the pics.
Elizabeth was totally into it.
But, bummer, she had a budget tonight. Otherwise, she would’ve snagged it for Rose.
For the first item, Elizabeth just chilled, resting her chin on her hand.
Pretty much every dude with a lady friend was throwing bids at this thing.
In no time, the price hit $2.5 million.
Elizabeth thought, “This has gotta be the cap. If they know what’s up, it should stop here; going higher is just dumb.‘
Sure enough, everyone knew the deal, and it sold for $2.5 million.
“Next up, the second item.”
This one was a hit too. After all, it was a necklace from the First Lady.
They showed it on the big screen, and Elizabeth felt a little flutter in her chest.
She hadn’t been that into it from the description, but seeing it now, it hit different. It was a butterfly necklace.

Butterfly pendants are everywhere, but this one had each clasp as a Butterfly. Super unique. The designer really put in the work!
Plus, Elizabeth had a thing for necklaces.
“So pretty,” Felix said.
Elizabeth glanced at Felix.
Felix smiled at her. “You like it?”
Elizabeth nodded without a second thought; she did like it. But she knew tonight’s mission was to get the SerenityLeaf for Grant.
Even if she liked it, she had to keep it cool.
They just didn’t have the cash for it tonight!
No biggie. Just bid for fun,” Felix told her.
Elizabeth shook her head. what if she actually won?
The bidding kicked off soon enough.
The robot next to them kept updating the prices.

Elizabeth watched it climb from $2.5 million to $5 million.
Everyone was really into this necklace.
Elizabeth bit her lip, feeling the itch to bid.
$6 million,” she blurted out,
Not for any other reason, just so this fancy piece wouldn’t go for cheap.
It deserved more.
Felix looked at her, surprised and thought, ‘Dang, she just upped it by a mil?‘
Elizabeth didn’t notice the guy across from her sneaking glances.
The price hit $6.5 million.
Elizabeth frowned and went, “$7.5 million.”
People kept bidding, up to $9 million!
Elizabeth didn’t dare go higher.
She was scared she’d win and couldn’t pay up. But she really wanted that necklace.
*$9 million, going once.”
Elizabeth bit her lip and looked around to see who was in Room 6.
She spotted Louis!
Louis looked back, raised his wine glass, and nodded at her.
Elizabeth was speechless.
