It seems Mr. Sullivan truly likes the Beloved. The host smiled awkwardly and looked at Roger.
Mr. Jimenez, would you like to continue
Roger didnt say anything, but he glanced at Rachel. Victor noticed it and deliberately leaned forward to block Rogers view.

Thank you.
Roger stared at the two words and pursed his thin Lips.
He had lost count of how many times she had said these words to him.
Every time she said them, he felt more and more estranged. He knew she sent the message because she didnt want him to keep bidding for the necklace.

Suddenly, Victor grabbed her wrist.
Rachel wanted to shake his hand off, but when she looked into his eyes, she stopped. Confused, she asked, Whats wrong?
Victor didnt answer but just opened the jewelry box and took out the necklace. He went closer to her and leaned over.
The skin on her neck felt a cool touch.
Victor was putting the necklace on for her, and his fingertips brushed her skin from time to time. Perhaps because his fingers were cold or because of her subconscious resistance, Rachels body stiffened.
When she couldnt take it any longer, Victor let go of her. He straightened, looked down at her, and ordered in a deep voice
