Captivation: Want Nothing But You
Chapter 1634

“Upon the concubine’s death, she was posthumously granted the title of empress.

The grieving emperor sealed the hairpin in a wooden box and buried it with her.

Since that day, the emperor never gifted another hairpin to any of his other concubines.

It was rumored that he held a deep love for his deceased concubine.

Whenever he caught sight of the hairpin, it reminded him of her, and he preferred not to be reminded of the pain of her loss.

This hairpin symbolizes the profound connection between the emperor and the empress.

Now, the hairpin reappeared.

We hope the new owner experiences a love story with a happy ending.”

After a brief pause, the host announced, “The starting bid is one million one hundred and twenty thousand.

Each bid will raise the price by one hundred and fifty thousand.” He returned to the small platform, tapped the gavel in his hand, and commenced the hairpin’s auction.

Rachel’s gaze remained fixed on the hairpin.

From her distance, she could still appreciate its intricate craftsmanship and adornments.

Unlike the extravagant hairpins available in the market, this hairpin stood out with its delicate craftsmanship and minimalistic design.

The emperor had gathered thousands of pearls, enlisted hundreds of people to select the finest nine, and added them to the hairpin himself .

It was the epitome of love for his beloved woman.

Of course, Rachel’s interest in the hairpin wasn’t driven by the love story but by its beauty.

As a woman, she appreciated beautiful and meaningful objects.

“Do you like it?” Odin inquired, noticing Rachel’s fascination with the hairpin.

“Yes, I do,” Rachel candidly admitted, not concealing her desire to win the bid.

This surprised Odin.

He expected her to be more reserved.

Although she had rejected him multiple times and without justification, his interest in her only grew.

He couldn’t help but wonder if love was indeed that significant.

If he fell in love with her, could he win her over?

“Do you have money?” Odin asked, raising an eyebrow.

Rachel glanced at him but remained silent.

She had the money.

She could easily purchase the hairpin.

However, she chose to remain silent, not wanting to reveal her financial capability.

In Odin’s eyes, although Shelia held the title of King of Hearts, she hadn’t reclaimed her position within the Red

Hackers.

She was influential, but not wealthy.

Millions weren’t something a hacker, reluctant to work with him, could casually afford.

“I’LL buy it for you.” Seeing that she didn’t say anything, Odin thought she had no money.

“What’s the condition?”

“Be with me.” This marked the fourth time.
