Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover novel Chapter 662

After Claire made her bid, no one else dared to compete. David, barely containing his excitement, brought down the gavel. "Congratulations to Ms. Claire for snagging 'The Queen's Tears' at a cool billion!"

The live stream audience was absolutely floored.

[Are these folks even living on the same planet as us? Why are they throwing around billions like it's pocket change?]

[I’m over here hustling for a three-dollar discount on my morning coffee, and you’re telling me a necklace is a billion-dollar deal?]

[Is there a rich benefactor out there willing to toss a million my way? Might be a moment of whimsy for them, but it'd make my whole life!]

[Please, a million wouldn't even make them blink.]

David invited Claire to the stage. She stood, walking with the kind of grace that made heads turn, right to the center.

Unlike his usual style, David didn’t pluck the jewelry from its display case. Instead, he leaned into the mic, "Ms. Claire is one of our esteemed guests at QUEEN Jewelry. Let's first applaud her for securing her dream piece today. From what I hear, she's been quite a collector of MISSY's masterpieces over the years. So, we've got a little surprise for Ms. Claire."

Curiosity rippled through the crowd.

"MISSY is here with us today, and she’ll be personally handing over this piece to Ms. Claire."

David’s words sent waves through the crowd. MISSY was actually here?

Guests from across the globe buzzed with excitement. QUEEN Jewelry had shot to stardom, thanks to MISSY's distinctive designs and cutting-edge aesthetics. MISSY was practically the soul of the brand. Yet, she was more elusive than the CEO themselves.
