Chapter 203

Dahlia chuckled lightly. “I used to feel that jade bracelets were inconvenient because they would crash into things. But, now that I am older, the more I feel that jade can help nurture people. However, these things require fate. Even if I like it, I wouldn’t be able to bid for it.”

Mrs. Chapman then said, “The bracelet costs twenty million dollars. The ones here who like jade and can spend that amount of money on it are only a selected few. The probability is still quite high.”

One had to admit that Mrs. Chapman’s skill in speaking was highly proficient. Just a single sentence enlightened the few madams present who were interested. The other madams were not stupid. The grading of the bracelet, regardless of the Venerable Raphael Morghen’s blessing, would make the jade cost at least twenty million dollars on the market. Hence, the blessing from the Venerable Raphael Morghen made the jade’s price at least thirty or forty million dollars. One could say that buying the jade bracelet would guarantee that it would be worth it. Not only would it help earn money, but it would also help distinguish yourself.

However, Dahlia currently wanted it. If they got it first, that would definitely offend Dahlia. The Kane family’s business was widespread. The companies of every madam there had connections with the Kane corporation. The involved projects were not as simple as just a few million, so there was no need to offend Dahlia for the sake of distinguishing yourself.

Dahlia smiled and spoke no further, but her eyes were filled with a spark of determination. Irene held onto Cordelia and said softly, “How is it? Does it suit your tastes?”

Cordelia smiled affectionately. “If the item was terrible, would you have poured in so much effort?”

Irene smiled and said, “I was merely helping a friend. He was also desperate to get the bracelet off his hands. At the same time, I had a jewelry exhibition, so he sent it over. I am only earning the fees for the exhibit unit.”

Stella listened by the side and did not say a word. The bracelet was bought by Xianna using thirty million dollars. With the current grand gesture, it was only sold for twenty-three million dollars. It might have been undervalued by Irene.

However, Stella still did not understand, ‘Now that she was helping the Anne family sell the bracelet, why did she purposely undervalue the price?’

After the host had introduced the bracelet, he called for anyone interested in buying it to come and get their numbers. The madams had a game plan in mind, and they all did not move forward. After a long while, only three people went up to get their numbers. Two were unfamiliar with the Kane family, and the other was Vermont.

The corner of Stella’s eyes twitched, and she thought, ‘He sold it for thirty million and planned to repurchase it for twenty million only to resell it again. This guy…’

Irene was also puzzled. “Vermont, why are you joining in the crowd? Come down and don’t affect the other madams from getting their numbers.”

Vermont smiled and said, “Aunt Irene, the Venerable Raphael Morghen didn’t say that the fated person had to be male or female. Maybe I might be the fated one.”

Irene was filled with resignation. “This is a woman’s bracelet. If you are the prophesied person, then the Venerable Raphael Morghen’s name will be tarnished.”

Vermont twitched his lips to a smile. “Wouldn’t it prove that his predictions are accurate?”

Irene could not persuade him and could only let him be. Dahlia watched for a long time. After she made sure that no one would be going up, she raised her feet to go up. Stella was shocked and quickly called for her. “Mom.”

Everyone was stunned and turned around to look at her. Keegan was also surprised.

Stella’s heart was anxious, but she knew the trap set up today was for Dahlia. She made the Anne family pay for it previously, and they wanted revenge on the Kane family. Once Dahlia bought this and knew the origins of the bracelet in the future, she would definitely remember this incident. So, Stella decided not to let Dahlia bid for it.

Dahlia furrowed her brows and looked at Stella with an unhappy expression. However, her tone was patient. “What’s wrong?”

Stella pursed her lips and softly said, “Keegan said that you were interested in jade, so I picked a bracelet for you just now. You should see if you like it.”
