Bai Mo Chen was stunned for a moment before he replied, "It's very beautiful."

Even though he felt that this necklace was very beautiful, Bai Mojiao did not intend to obtain it.

It was like seeing a beautiful flower. You would feel very beautiful, but you wouldn't reach out and pluck it.

After the auctioneer finished introducing the necklace, he began the bidding.

"The starting price of this necklace is 100 thousand dollars."

The moment the auctioneer finished his sentence, a voice rang out from beside him. Huo Sheng raised the bid, saying in his standard but magnetic English, "Five hundred thousand dollars."

Holt's voice made Bai Mo Lian turn his head to look at him in astonishment. She didn't know why Holt would bid for this, but it didn't seem necessary to him.

By her side, Holt could see the doubt in Bai Mo Chen's clear eyes. "Don't you like it?"

Bai Mo Yan was suddenly enlightened.

Could it be … Was Holsham trying to get the necklace for himself?

As for Holt's voice, it was heard by Yan Haotian, who was sitting diagonally behind them.

Yan Haotian had been staring at Bai Mojiao the entire time. Naturally, he had also seen the stunning appearance of the necklace.

Almost subconsciously, Yan Haotian also raised his own bid, "800 thousand US dollars."

He originally thought that no one would raise the bid again after Holt's bid, but when a familiar voice entered his ears, Bai Moyan couldn't help but turn his head to look at Yan Haotian behind him, his eyes flashing with surprise.

Had he taken a fancy to the necklace as well? Did he want to bid for Cai'Er?

As he thought of this, Bai Mo Chen felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart.

He turned around and lowered his eyes.

However, Cai'Er was incomparably clear that even if she was interested in this necklace, the reason why Yan Haotian wanted to bid for it was because of Bai Mojiao. She naturally discovered that Yan Haotian's eyes were fixated on Bai Mojiao.

Just as Yan Haotian finished his sentence, Holt raised his bid again, "1 million US dollars."

"One million two hundred thousand dollars." Yan Haotian was unwilling to back down as he continued to speak.

He continued to bid, "One million and five hundred thousand dollars."

After all, the original value of this necklace was far from what it could be worth.

Seeing that Yan Haotian wanted to continue bidding, Cai'er grabbed his hand and said, "Haotian, forget it. Since Director Huo likes it, then I'll give it to you."

If Yan Haotian wanted to buy it for her, Cai'Er would be happy. But Yan Haotian wanted to buy it for Bai Moyan. This made Cai'Er even more resentful.

Facing Cai'Er's obstruction, Yan Haotian couldn't help but frown, "Why are you giving it to him?"

The host's voice came again, "One million and five hundred thousand dollars once, one million and five hundred thousand twice …"

Seeing that it was the third time, Cai'Er quickly snatched the bid from Yan Haotian.

"1.5 million going thrice, deal!"

Thus, the necklace was bought by Holt.

Knowing that it was because of him that Holt had bought the necklace, Bai Mojiao did not feel very happy. Instead, he felt pressured.

When the party was over, Holt took the necklace from the auction.

Back to the hotel.

Holt handed the delicate box containing the necklace to Bai Moyan and said, "This is for you."

However, Bai Mojiao did not intend to extend his hand to receive it. He lowered his eyes and refused to look at him, "Director Huo, this gift is too valuable, I cannot accept it."

"If you don't accept it, it won't be of much use to me. Why don't you throw it away?" He reached out and pressed the button beside the doorknob. The window rolled down, and the hand holding the gift box stuck out of the window as if to toss it out.

At this moment, they were crossing a bridge. If they were thrown out, they would probably be thrown into the river.

Upon seeing this, Bai Moyan hurriedly grabbed Holt's hand, "Director Huo, don't be like this."

If he just threw away such a precious necklace like that, it wouldn't be worth it at all.

"And you took it?"

Bai Mo Lian pursed his lips. The way that he was acting now was such that she had no other choice but to accept him. However, Bai Mo Xie could tell that if he didn't accept him, then with his personality, he might really be thrown into the river.

No matter what the original price of the necklace was, it would be worth at least one and a half million dollars now!

Bai Moyan could only nod his head awkwardly, "Thank you, Director Huo."

The corner of his lips curled up in satisfaction as he opened the box. The black pearl was still emitting a low-key and mysterious luster in the dim window.

The slender finger took out the necklace from the box. "I'll help you put it on."

Hearing this, Bai Mo Chen was slightly startled. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded his head. After all, he was very clear that even if he rejected her offer, he would still do as Holt had said in the end.

Holt helped Bai Moyan put the necklace on. "It's very pretty, very suitable for you."

Bai Mojiao lowered his head, embarrassed, "Sorry for making Boss Huo pay."

If he had known that Holt had paid such a high price for liking the necklace, he would have said he didn't like it.

He only said in a calm voice, "It's only right for a man to spend some money to chase after the woman he likes."

When Holt's voice fell into Bai Mo Lian's ears, his heart instantly fell into disorder.

On the other side, Yan Haotian and Wen Cai'er returned to their room.

Because he didn't manage to obtain the necklace, Yan Haotian was in an extremely bad mood.

Thinking about how they would return home tomorrow and end their honeymoon, Cai'er felt that she had to make her move today.

Cai'Er walked into the kitchen, poured two glasses of red wine, took out a packet of paper wrapped powder from her pocket, and poured it into the wine.

Cai'Er brought the red wine into the room.

"Haotian, don't be angry. Drink some wine and calm down."

Cai'Er handed the poisoned wine cup to Yan Haotian.

Yan Haotian was indeed in a bad mood. He accepted the red wine and gulped it down in one gulp.

Seeing Yan Haotian drink all of the red wine, the corners of Cai'Er's lips curved up in a sly smile.

Not too long after, Yan Haotian felt his mind grow increasingly dizzy, his body becoming hotter and hotter, and his vision becoming blurry.

The next day, when Yan Haotian woke up early in the morning, he found himself lying in bed with Cai'er, unclothed. The bruises and purplish bruises on her body were a clear sign of yesterday's passion.
