At that moment, the auctioneer introduced the pendant, starting the bidding at 1.2 million.

The pendant was exceptional, featuring a striking purplish-pink conch shell at its center, surrounded by small diamonds dazzling Like stars in the sky, creating a fascinating vibe.

As the bids began, someone offered 1.3 million, but Edwin quickly upped it to 1.5 million. That bidder countered with 1.8 million, likely motivated by his wife's admiration for the piece.

Edwin, who typically would have stepped back in such situations, surprisingly bid 3 million this time.

The auctioneer was thrilled. Designer pieces often fetched high prices, and they had only expected 2 million at most for this piece.
