Chapter 138

138 She Won’t Sell It

Wallace was about to say something when Sharon shook her head. I have already gotten used to it and will let these people say whatever they want. After all, not everyone has the taste of digging for treasure. I just want to end this quickly and go to the hospital to see Uncle Smith.

“It’s okay, Paul, Fred. The two of you can take a look together. Many people don’t have good taste now, and they’re not sure if the antiques are real or fake. Instead of that, it’s better for the two of you to take a look together. If they are fake, I have other ways,” Sharon said calmly. Even if it is real, who knows if the Harris family would replace them in secret? These people might really do it.

Hearing Sharon say that he had no taste, Louis immediately became irritable. However, he didn’t expect his father to glare at him fiercely, as if blaming him for speaking nonsense.

Only then did Louis clench his fists and pray in his heart that Sharon’s music box was definitely a fake!

Paul and Fred walked to the bottom of the stage. Their eyes were filled with disregard and contempt for each other.

“Amazing! Really amazing!” After a while, Paul’s face turned red from excitement. He rushed to Sharon and asked humbly, “How much did you spend to buy this thing, Miss Sharon?”

Sharon casually made up a number because she really didn’t know how much the music box was. She had asked Tommy to buy it.

“Everyone! Listen to me, everyone. This thing is really a treasure! Although I know that this is a birthday present for Miss Nicole, we can also tell from what Crystal said that Nicole doesn’t seem to like this music box. Therefore, why don’t you give up your love and sell it to me? I’m willing to offer 1.7 million!”

Everyone gasped when they heard this. If today was the birthday of a Harris family elder or a close friend, it would be fine if Sharon took out something so expensive. Who knew that she would spend so much money on the youngest child of the Harris family?

Zachary looked at Fred, indicating that he could speak.

However, the latter remained calm as if he had no intention of speaking. Anyone with eyes would know that this isn’t an occasion for me to talk nonsense. If I were alone today, our plan to malign Sharon would’ve succeeded. But Paul is here, and he has taken the initiative. I’ve already lost face once because of May’s vase. If I were to make another mistake now, nobody would be willing to invite me to such a gathering in the future.

Hearing Paul’s words, Madam Harris raised her eyebrows calmly. I didn’t expect Sharon to find such a treasure this time. If he can offer 1.7 million, he can offer two million. With such a large sum of money, our Harris family will definitely be able to resolve our current crisis.

At that thought, Madam Harris glanced at Paul and secretly scolded him for being an old fox. On the surface, he is a cultural relic worker. But in essence, he is a businessman.

“This is my birthday present to Nicole. Whether she wants it or not is up to her. Since I’ve already given it away, this thing naturally doesn’t belong to me. It has already proven its authenticity. Whether or not she wants to sell it depends on her.” Sharon directly gave the choice to Nicole.

At this moment, Crystal and Louis were determined to get it. They believed that with Nicole’s disgust for Sharon, she would definitely sell this thing.

Unexpectedly, Nicole took the music box and subconsciously twisted the lever. She listened to the melody coming from inside and looked at Sharon seriously. “Thank you... Sharon... I won’t sell this music box. No matter how much it’s worth, I won’t sell it.”

Everyone was stunned-especially Crystal and Louis, who had been smug just now. The two of them stood in their spots and now realized that compared to Sharon, they were like clowns.

“Since you’ve given me your gifts, I won’t disturb you anymore. I hope you all have fun. I still have to go to work, so I won’t be staying for long.” Sharon didn’t want to see the hypocritical family members for the sake of some benefits. She didn’t say anything else and walked straight to the door.

Wallace wanted to follow her, but June stopped him with a look.

Seeing the confused looks on everyone’s faces, Wallace slowly said, “Do you think this music box is nothing to Nicole? The music in it is the original tune of the last song recorded before Third Aunt passed away. It’s normal for a daughter to keep her mother’s things.”
