You're with your mafia arranged husband at a wedding. Your palms are sweaty as you stand behind the curtains, some how you got forced into a bidding. The embarrassment would get poured down on you when no one bids, who would pay money to send time with you?
You suck in a breathe when you step out, all eyes zoning in on you. You almost expected them to start throwing stuff at you.

"Wow! That's a new high." The narrator exclaims. "Going once, going twi-"
"10 million." Your husband says without stuttering, keeping his eyes on you.
