The emcee looked at the crowd and announced, "400,000 dors going twice. Do I hear a higher bid?"
Tyler leaned back in his chair, watching the stage calmly. It seemed obvious that no one else would bid.
The emcee thought the same. "400,000 dors going thrice. Sol-"
Before she could finish, someone suddenly raised their bidding card. "420,000 dors."
At that moment, everyone turned to see who it was. Tyler, along with Linda and Naomi, were shocked
to see the new bidder. Olivia turned her head and was surprised to see ude. Her eyes widened,
thinking she must be seeing things.
But ude met everyone''s gaze without flinching.
Tyler slowly turned his head and found ude looking at him. He smiled faintly, acknowledging him
from across the room.
Naomi hadn''t noticed ude earlier and was surprised he was interested in the same item. Her smile
faded a bit as she frowned.
Meanwhile, ude shifted his gaze from Tyler to Olivia. Olivia clenched her hand, sensing tension in
the air.
Then, Tyler turned away and raised his own bidding card. "450,000 dors."
The emcee was taken aback by this unexpected turn of events. She had never seen such ate
challenge in a bidding war, and she thought 400,000 dors was already a high price for a locket. But
then ude raised his bid again, saying, "460,000 dors."
Tyler didn''t hesitate. "480,000 dors."
ude countered. "500,000 dors."
Tyler kept going. "520,000 dors."
ude raised his bid once more. "540,000 dors."
"560,000 dors."
"580,000 dors."
Naomi watched anxiously as ude continued topete. It was clear he was doing this on purpose.
She nced at Tyler.

The crowd got excited, enjoying the unexpected rivalry.
The emceemented, "It seems Mr. Harris and Mr. Pearce really like this locket. Mr. Pearce is Mr.
Harris''s brother-inw. Looks like they might have a little family meeting when this is over." She tried to
keep her tone light to ease the atmosphere.
Naomi looked at Tyler again. She liked the locket, but it didn''t make sense to her to spend so much on
it.
