While Rachel Grey did not necessarily need the painter’s brush, the thought of pairing this brush with her ivory pocket watch from the 1800s was too tempting to resist. The intricate patterns of this painter’s brush pair beautifully with cravings of the sea, clouds, and dragon on her pocket watch.

However, Rachel changed her mind after she noticed Olivia’s efforts to obstruct her.

“Well, the thrill in the game of cats and mice isn’t in capturing the prey but in the process of toying with it.” Rachel thought.

Hearing Olivia’s bid, Rachel Grey smirked. With a confident voice, she counteroffered, “200 thousand dollars!”

All eyes turned to Rachel as she raised the bid from 120 thousand dollars to a (stagg ering) 200 thousand dollars.

Everyone had assumed that Rachel was determined to obtain the necklace. Little did they know, she was setting up a trap for Olivia.

Olivia raised the bid, “280 thousand dollars!”

Unsurprisingly, she won the bid and became the new owner of the emerald necklace.

As Rachel observed the confident and smug stance of Olivia, a hint of sarcasm crept onto her lips.

“How many perks did the organizers give you to be the bait?” David asked Rachel with fondness in his
