No one planned to stop at this point. For many people, the price had already risen above the maximum levels, so only entrepreneurs with excessive taste continued bidding.
Like Mark.
The price suddenly approached dangerously close to 10 million...
"9.8 million!" shouted one of the entrepreneurs.
Mark, angry, raised his number again to bid while banging on the table.
"20 million!"
Even though he was the Young Master of the Nevilles and had a lot of money, spending so much on a hat didn't feel right at all.
It was above the price a hat should cost, no matter how exclusive it was!
And after his number, no one could say anything else.
Silence reigned in the room. Although one or two bidders and regular auction buyers were about to raise the price, in the end they decided not to.
Money didn't grow on trees for them, unlike the noble houses, let alone compete with the Nevilles in terms of wealth.
