Dead at Heart (Ariel and Jayson) novel Chapter 777

Elsie focused on the ring on Ariel's hand and said, "I remember years ago, maybe four years back, I went to an auction in Fiorvell with my dad. This ring was the final highlight of the auction."

Ariel immediately glanced at Jayson sitting beside her. He met her gaze calmly.

Elsie continued, "I loved it at the time, so I remembered many people wanted it. I think the final price was… 110 million dollars."

Ariel almost choked. She looked down at the ring on her hand, then back at Jayson, stunned.

How much was it?

"This ring has quite a history," Elsie went on. "It's a one-of-a-kind piece by a top Fleubian jeweler from a century ago. It was insanely expensive. At the auction, they said it had ended up in a museum.

"The jeweler had designed it in the name of love. It's incredibly meaningful, and a few versions of the story circulated widely back then. It was only a few years ago that it was brought out again, renamed 'Devotion' for auction, and fetched that astronomical price.

Elsie remembered it clearly.

Her family was wealthy, and she traveled all over with her father. Back then, she was just a teenager, at the age when jewelry fascinated her, but the price was far beyond her reach.

After all, very few people would consider spending 110 million dollars on a single diamond ring.

"Mr. Larkin, you're so good to your wife," Alicia said, eyes full of admiration.

Ariel felt her hand growing warm. She looked at Jayson in disbelief. "Really?"

Jayson gave her a quick glance. "Yeah."

He had flown out specifically for that auction a week before they had gone to the city hall to register their marriage.

Ariel was momentarily speechless because Jayson had never mentioned any of this.

Her ring was a one-of-a-kind auction piece. So what about his wedding ring that matched hers perfectly?

Elsie's words left everyone in the room silently impressed.

Jayson was extremely thoughtful.

Alicia glanced at Wade, then at Janice across the table, saying nothing.
