Priceless The Book Novels & Stories

They went through it. House Prestige, curated by the glamorous Madame Celeste Everhart, was always in the spotlight. Celebrities, heirs of social dynasties, fashion icons, and viral influencers made their home here. Prestige didn’t chase clout—they controlled it. Narrative, image, scandal—they wrote the headlines and starred in them too.

"Urgh! This is disgusting! It tastes like blood! I'm going to puke!" Jack Lacroix patted Sandra Chambers on the head dotingly while looking at her as she sipped the liquid with furrowed brows. "Be good, Sandra. The doctor said that the freshest placentas will help with your period pain. If you take it, your period won't be as painful when you have it." Sandra placed the bowl down and hugged Jack around the waist. She said coquettishly, "Jack, you're the best! But are you sure Whitney won't be mad that you took this from her? The baby hasn't even come to full-term yet."

After his regular job, Elias would sneak off to a construction site to work just to save up enough money to buy me a gift. When he came home, he would hide his blistered hands and force himself to stand straight despite his aching back, hoping I wouldn't notice. On my birthday, he surprised me with a gold bracelet he'd worked so hard to save for. That was when I realized the price he had paid—he ended up with chronic back pain because of it. At the time, I was so moved I thought I could trust my life to a man like him. I never thought love could change so suddenly. He was no longer the man who'd do anything just to make me happy.

He had said I was the most important person in his life and that he would always treat me well. How had he turned out like this? After spending two years pursuing Celine and finally securing her love, he prioritized her now and disregarded our precious bond as mother and son. But then, Celine had tried to kill me! She was practically a murderer in the making! Yet, Shawn seemed to care about nothing but the woman he had chased after for two years. To him, I was now dispensable. I tried to cry out and demand to make a phone call. But my tongue and lips were so damaged that my words were unintelligible.

But Naomi? She was a puzzle with missing pieces, a book with torn-out pages. He had watched her long enough to notice the subtleties—how she never lingered too long in any one conversation, how she deflected compliments with an ease that suggested years of practice. She wasn’t just indifferent to charm; she had built a quiet fortress against it. And that only made him more determined. A Second Attempt

The look in the duchess’ eyes was akin to rapture. “Your Majesty… I’m… I don’t know what to say… is it alright for me to possess such a valuable object?” The invited nobility noticed Duchess’ Saphia’s genuine voice of surprise and raucous happiness. They quickly fixed their expression of disappointment and awkwardly congratulated the duchess for the valuable gift she received. “Congratulations, Duchess Saphia. The gift must’ve sent you to the heavens.” “Yes. Of course. To the duchess, this book has more value than gold or any other valuables she possesses.”

he explained, slowly but surely whetting the appetites of interested buyers. "It was also said that this great Alpha always carried a book around in which he wrote all his training strategies and lifestyle. This book was then named the Scriptures of Alpha Aibek. After the war and the great Alpha died, the book had been lost and was recently found in the depths of the abandoned city… The starting price for this item is one million, and the minimum bid raise is two hundred thousand… Let the bid begin!" Given that the bidding was made online, there was no noise to show the fever of bidding. Instead, the hall maintained decorum, and a drop of a pin could be heard. Every party interested in the b

She turned to her mother, "Mom, we can't lose to them! We have to bid too!" "Understood!" Ximena was determined to get the manuscript tonight, no matter the cost. The bidding hit 10 million, but it didn’t stop there. The price quickly reached 15 million, and Sebastian raised the bid again. "20 million!" Gasps filled the room. The price for half of an old book had reached an astronomical figure. It was beyond most people's comprehension. At the 20 million mark, the number of bidders dwindled significantly. Many people hesitated—this was an amount few could afford to pay, and many didn’t even know how to handle such a rare piece of history.

It piqued Lyra's interest, but one look at the price tag–a staggering three hundred grand–stifled her excitement. “Do you like it?” Nile’s voice came from behind her just as she placed the book back to its slot. Startled by his sudden appearance, Lyra turned around. “I didn't know you were here.” “Have you found anything you want?” he asked her. Lyra looked around. Everything in the shop was so expensive that she hadn't even considered getting anything. She wasn't paying, but she wasn't exactly lining up to receive anything from Nile. Before Lyra could say anything, Crystal pushed past her and reached for the book. “Oh my Goddess, I've been looking for this edition since forever! I'll even p

The ring cost about a hundred thousand dollars, and as I watched the excited, happy expression on Grace’s face, I couldn’t help but smile, especially when I caught the faintest hint of a smile on Liam’s face before it quickly shifted back to his usual stoic expression. Adam, on the other hand, placed a bid on a rare book. The auctioneer had described it as a one-of-a-kind, detailed book that explored philosophy, most especially how to understand the human mind. The author was unknown, since it had been discovered in an ancient tomb recently found, but according to the auctioneer, it was priceless all the same. As soon as Adam heard that, his face had practically lit up, and he ended up spend
