Such a Rude and Noisy Woman novel Chapter 198

All the women here were waiting eagerly for the third round, the jewelry.

When the last item of jewelry was brought out and displayed in the middle of the hall, nearly all the women here in the hall cried out. It was a crown.

And not just any crown; it was a crown covered with thousands of small but pure diamonds and with a remarkable blue diamond in the shape of a teardrop set right in the middle. The blue diamond sparkled more brightly than the stars in the night sky, blinding everyone in the hall for a moment.

Of course, its starting price itself was extraordinary, a whooping 80 million!

Hiram turned his head to Chad, and Chad nodded.

"100 million!" Chad raised the paddle in his hand.

All the big shots in the auction hall were exclaiming among themselves about the price Hiram was offering. Was there anyone else who could afford such a price?

They didn't even bother to raise their paddles, and it seemed like the crown would definitely go to Hiram.

"110 million!" shouted the auctioneer excitedly when he saw another paddle raised in the air.

Shocked, people turned their eyes to the new paddle and found that it belonged to none other than Patrick. People began to wonder just how well the Yan Family was doing now that they even dared to challenge the Rong Family. They might have underestimated them before.

Chad raised his paddle again.

"120 million!'

"130 million!"

The auctioneer shouted out one price after another. Rachel shook her head and leaned over to Hiram. "Stop it now! I don't want it at all. Stop bidding."

Hiram didn't reply but turned to Chad, giving him another sign.

"150 million!" the auctioneer screamed out.

"Mr. Rong! I know you have countless priceless treasures at home. Please do me a favor and leave this crown to me! You know I seldom put my eyes on such things!" shouted Patrick, seeing Chad continue to raise the paddle for Hiram, who didn't seem like he would give up.

"Mr. Yan, this is a charity auction, and I believe the higher, the better, right? If you want to catch up with me, let's have dinner together later! But for now, please let our money talk!" Hiram replied suavely before shifting his eyes back to the auctioneer.

The auctioneer got his meaning at once, and exclaimed, "150 million, going once! 150 million, going twice! 150 million..."

"180 million!" Patrick shouted, interrupting the auctioneer.

"200 million, " Hiram spoke out powerfully, and the auctioneer started calling again.

Patrick was about to raise his paddle again when he was stopped by his assistant, who was sitting behind him. His assistant whispered, "We can't bid any more, boss! We have tried our best, but no more!"

"This is the last call! 200 million! Sold!" The hammer in the auctioneer's hand came down. This time, Hiram went over to the table himself to take the crown in his hands, and then he walked back to Rachel and placed the 200-million-dollar crown on her head.

"This is for you, honey! I have been looking for something special for you ever since we got married. Here, it matches you perfectly!" He smiled at Rachel gently, then took her hand and led her to the door.

Everyone watched the couple enviously as they walked outside, but Rachel complained to Hiram with a frown, "It was ridiculous of you to spend 200 million on a crown. I can barely breathe thinking of what's on my head!" Not only that, She also thought it was unpractical because it wasn't something she could wear every day.

Hiram couldn't help laughing at her words, and he explained patiently, "Honey, there's something you don't know. The crown on your head is by no means an ordinary one. Its starting price was lower than its value because this was a charity auction. Look at the blue diamond in the center, it's rare to find. This diamond can be sold for 300 million abroad."

"Really? I can't believe it!" Rachel reached out and touched the crown. She had never given much thought to crowns, since she had never imagined that she would one day wear one on her head. Like Hiram said, they could get a profit of 100 million if they sold it.
