Chapter 1045 A Necklace Called Equinox Flowers Pistil (2/2)

She looked at Hunk, noting his wrinkled face and thinning white hair. He was trying his best to protect her, even if it meant opposing the Gu Family.

Everyone present was stunned and several gasps sounded.

”It is the necklace Dad mentioned. Do you like it?”

asked Louis. The moment he finished speaking, Emily nodded her head and stared at Louis with big expectant eyes.

Louis couldn't help but laugh as he responded, ”Dad nailed it. He knew you would like it.”

He was deeply relieved to confirm that Emily loved the necklace. He had worried that nothing would catch her eye at the auction.

The aim was to make Emily relaxed and happy. Since Emily liked the necklace, Louis would buy it for her. Hence, he raised his bidding plate and broke the silence.

”Four million.”

Louis was willing to add one million to that if required.

A few prospective buyers who wanted to buy the necklace looked at one another miserably, and then they all put down their hands.

Obviously, the Ke Family had decided to buy the necklace to please Emily. They didn't want to compete against the Ke Family. They didn't mind doing the Ke Family a favor that would cost them nothing.

However, suddenly, a man said, ”Five million.”

”Jacob, you are so nice to me,”

Michelle said, staring at Jacob's face as a wicked grin formed on her face.
