Chapter 1477

Debbie patted his hand and said, “Hey, watch your manners.”

“It’s not my— Okay, okay. I’ll watch my manners.” He changed his tone immediately when he saw the

glare in her eyes.

Damon was astounded when he saw how obedient the bossy CEO was with his wife. He looked at her

sincerely, holding the box out to her in both his hands, and said, “Debbie, please accept this gift. From

now on,

I’LL be siding with you.”

Debbie glanced at the expensive red sandalwood box, and guessed that whatever was inside must be

very expensive too. Without taking the gift, she said, “It’s okay. Let bygones be bygones. I’m living a

good life now. You didn’t cause me any harm. You were fooled by them just as many others had been.

Since you’re Carlos’ buddy, you don’t need to be so formal with me either. You didn’t need to buy me a

gift.”

When she didn’t accept the gift, Damon felt awkward and became anxious.

He placed the box into her hands and said, “You must take it. Thanks to your husband, I’ve made a lot

of money. It can be said that I bought the gift with his money. So please, just take it and don’t feel shy.”

“But it’s still your money. You earned it. Besides, you have two children now. It’ll cost you a Large sum

Debbie reasoned, about to give the box back to him.

“Tomboy, just take it. If you don’t take it, he’ll spend the money in another way,” Jared chimed in.

Damon glared at Jared.

Curtis chuckled, “Debbie, take it. Damon will need your husband’s help in the future.”

And that was when Debbie realized that they were being nice to her because of Carlos.

Since they were urging her to take the gift, she decided to accept it.

She took the sandalwood box and said, “Thank you, Damon. We’re good.”

Damon grinned, “Open it.”

Worried that she might be tired from standing too long, Carlos put his hands on her shoulder gently,

indicating she should sit down. Slowly, she opened the red sandalwood box, revealing a piece of jade

inside. It was fine, glossy, and flawless

Debbie took the stone from the box. It was the size of an adult’s thumb. She thought it looked familiar,

but she wasn’t sure.

“Is this

White Jade?” she asked.

An image was carved into the White Jade-a Buddha holding a lifelike lotus.

Rubbing his chin as he nodded, Damon explained, “It’s the best kind of jade. In ancient times, only

emperors and generals and ministers could wear them. But this is not just any White Jade. It’s a

historic treasure from the Song Dynasty, during Tiansheng’s reign.”

‘Tiansheng! That means this thing’s nearly a thousand years old. It’s priceless!”

Debbie gaped in shock.

Curtis had seen the item before Damon gave it to Debbie. He thought about it for a moment and stated,

“In Buddhism, the blooming of the blue lotus flower stands for enlightenment. If a Buddhist follower

acquires the wisdom and realm of the blue lotus flower, they find
