Lucy tugged at Matthew’s sleeve as she watched Matthew frown. He wanted to continue bidding. She stopped him from raising his bidding paddle.
“Wait, Matthew. I don’t particularly like this piece of jewelry that much. If that lady wants it, let her have it. Stop bidding for it.”
Matthew looked blankly at his wife. Was she someone who changed her mind very quickly?
She liked it a lot before. “Are you sure you don’t want it?”
Matthew frowned and asked with slight doubt, “I’ll get it for you if you want it. It’s just a jewel.”
Lucy sighed. That was not what she meant. “Does your money grow on trees, Matthew?”
“That jewel is worth far less than 50 million, and you’re actually planning on bidding higher for it.”
The look in Matthew’s eyes softened. Lucy was worried for him.
He smiled softly and said to Lucy, “It’s fine. Someone has estimated for me before that I make a profit of about 12 billion every hour.”
This was just a jewel. If his wife liked it, he would buy it for him no matter how much it cost.
“Don’t worry about me going bankrupt.”
He got the wrong idea again. Lucy could not help rolling her eyes, but she did not say it out loud. She sighed and said to Matthew, “I don’t really like this sapphire necklace. There are more items up for bidding later, right?”
