Chapter 1389

“Don’t listen to Nigel’s nonsense, Uncle Damian! This is a piece of valuable Four–Colored Jadeite, not some counterfeit stone like what he claims,” Leon explained.

“Four–Colored Jadeite?”

“This jadeite statue does indeed have four different colors–could this indeed be the Four–Colored Jadeite that represents happiness, wealth, and longevity?”

The audience was all shocked to hear this, exchanging glances of uncertainty and doubt.

Although any jadeite that possessed more than three colors was hard to come by, because the Four–

Colored Jadeite had such a meaningful symbolism to it, many of the rich and powerful heard a thing or two about this remarkable stone!

However, since they were not professional jewelers after all, none of them could tell whether the jadeite statue before them was indeed the priceless Four–Colored Jadeite or just a cheap dupe!

“What nonsense is this? Any priceless jadeite that has three or more colors would be made into small accessories, and I’ve never once heard of such a humongous Four–Colored Jadeite! Even if you wanted to lie your way out of this, Leon, you’d better get your story straight first!” Nigel said, sneering.

He was certain that the gift Leon brought was just a cheap counterfeit, and no matter what Leon said, he refused to believe that this was the legendary Four–Colored Jadeite!

“Yes, Master Nigel is correct! This jadeite statue is so big, it doesn’t seem to be made out of the valuable Four -Colored Jadeite!” the audience agreed with Nigel’s statement and all thought that Leon was lying!

“Leon isn’t lying! I can vouch for him—this jadeite is indeed the Four–Colored Jadeite!” Penny stepped forward all of a sudden.

“Vouch for him? how are you going to do that?” Nigel froze, then glanced at Penny. Patrick and the audience all turned to gaze at Penny with puzzled looks.

“Grandpa, Leon gambled for this stone a few days ago at the Westwoods‘ store–Andy and I were there, and we saw everything. It turned out that the stone was indeed a rare Four–Colored Jadeite, and I swear that this isn’t a counterfeit product at all,” Penny declared confidently.

“What?”

“How’s this possible?” Nigel and the rest were stunned to hear this. They all thought Leon was lying, and never once did they think that the jadeite statue Leon was gifting Patrick would turn out to be a piece of priceless treasure!

Even Patrick and Damian were stunned by this.

“Penny, are you telling the truth?” Damian asked.

“Yes, nothing but the truth! Not only that, but when Leon got his hands on this Four–Colored Jadeite, some jeweler tried to buy it for forty–three million dollars, but Leon turned down his offer so that he could sculpt it into this statue as Grandpa’s birthday present,” Penny explained, nodding.
