The auctioneer shouted again, "Number 25 bid for $75,000!"
Joshua watched as the price increased to $80,000 and then to $85,000.
"It seems that Number 25 really wants that necklace," Hazel whispered.
Joshua continued to frown as the price increased. He wasn't going to give anyone the chance to buy a necklace that he wanted to give to Hazel. He tapped the display again.
"Number 8 bids $100,000!" The auctioneer shouted. Everyone in the room began mumbling and looking around. They were shocked by the amount of the bid and thought about bidding again, but nobody dared to bid against Number 8.
"Don't be so extravagant..." Hazel's lips were trembling.
"It's okay as long as you like it." Joshua smiled at her.
