”Tonight's auction, however, is different from the one yesterday,” he said, while smiling.
”I heard there's a bracelet at tonight's auction, which makes a pair with Aunt Shirley's. These two bracelets are engraved with mandarin duck patterns*”, he revealed.

”Are you sure that the bracelet matches that of Shirley's?” he inquired, slightly curious.
”Hahaha!” Eric gave a loud chuckle.
”Why would I be calling you now if I wasn't sure about the information?” he replied.
