Chapter 1400: At that moment, the auctioneer's voice rang through the hall. “Now, for tonight's grand finale. Introducing the Dreamlike Blue!" The Dreamlike Blue wasn't just any accessory-it was a legendary pair of sapphire cufflinks, renowned for both rarity and history. Each gem was one of a kind, unmatched anywhere in the world. Centuries ago, they had graced a king's wrists, then vanished for a thousand years. Now they had resurfaced under the auction lights, drawing every eye in the room.
Leaning toward Nikolas, Carol whispered, “Daniela is here tonight for those cufflinks." Nikolas's eyebrows shot up. "Daniela? She's into cufflinks? That's oddly specific-aren't they more of a guy thing?" If anyone knew cufflinks, it was Hamilton. He had spent decades obsessively curating a private collection of the rarest pairs. He had even bought an entire villa just to display them. At one auction, a powerful tycoon drove the bidding a thousand times above the starting price, yet Hamilton remained unfazed and claimed the prize. In Oiscoll, everyone knew of his extravagant obsession.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNikolas narrowed his eyes. Was Daniela trying to provoke his father? That would be a disaster. He clearly intended to win them tonight-and he wouldn't back down.
Carol gave him a sly smile. "Not quite. Cedric's the one who wants them." Nikolas blinked, caught off guard.
Carol continued, "Cedric collects cufflinks too. Daniela always spoils him, so tonight things are about to get very interesting." Chaos never bothered Carol. In fact, she seemed to thrive on it, watching everything unfold like her own private show.
Unlike her, Nikolas recognized the brutal patterns of Hamilton's mind-cold control wrapped in charm, masked behind expensive suits and power plays.
Turning to Daniela, he murmured, "I don't think it's a good idea to compete for the cufflinks. I don't care how valuable they are—they're still just accessories. My father is not the type to let something go if it's caught his eye. He'll burn everything down to claim it." With a slow tilt of her head, Daniela gave him a soft, unreadable smile. Her gaze drifted toward the velvet display box beneath the auction lights. "And what makes you so sure that I'm any different?" Nikolas blinked, momentarily thrown. "What are you talking about?" Daniela finally turned fully toward him, eyes unwavering. "You're afraid of your father, aren't you? You think no one can challenge him. But tonight, you'll see it for yourself. Whoever stands across from me-him included- won't win." Up on stage, the auctioneer was still building anticipation, listing the cufflinks' origin and craftsmanship. Meanwhile, Nikolas couldn't take his eyes off Daniela.
Even after she looked away, the impression she left lingered. Something in the way she carried herself-so unshaken, so certain-rendered him speechless.
In that single moment, Daniela becblinding. He could barely stand to look at her, yet couldn't look away.
