Chapter 184

“How dare you! I gave you so many things, yet I don’t see you keeping those properly. You don’t even wear the jade bracelet. It’s such a waste of space, so why keep it?” Helen asked angrily.

“How can you compare it that way? I still keep what you’ve given me. Moreover, this jade bracelet was given from my adoptive mother, and it’s a family heirloom, passed on for generations at that. If I’m the one who loses it, wouldn’t I be a sinner?” said Sasha.

Helen pursed her lips. “Bullsh*t! It is just a piece of trash, and you’re making such a big fuss! The Cunningham Family is well known and has power in Eastcliff. Don’t lower yourself over a mere jade bracelet.”

Sasha waved her hands around. “Forget it, you just won’t see sense. Tell me where you sold it, and I will go get it back!””

However, Helen simply ignored her.

Sasha insisted on knowing the name of the shop. Only after a long while was she able to find out which shop it was. Hurrying downstairs, she ran to the jade shop, and to her dismay, it was closed.

Sasha dialed the phone number on the signboard, but it had been turned off.

She then asked the shop next door, but they too were surprised.

The jade shop usually closed around eight o’clock in the evening. It was now only slightly after six, which was unusual.

Having a bad feeling about it, Sasha quickly called Matthew and told him everything.

Matthew had just left work and was on his way home.

After hearing her out, he did not dare to make any assumptions.

He inherited the family’s ability of appreciating antiques, and he knew a thing or two about them.

At that time, he knew that the jade bracelet was not as simple as it looked.

He even reminded Sasha to keep it well.

He did not expect that Helen would actually make a scene and sell the jade bracelet.

On one hand, he comforted Sasha and asked her to return home first.

On the other hand, he hastily called Tiger and asked him to deal with the matter.

The jade shop was located in South Street, which was Tiger’s territory. Thus, it seemed best to let him handle it.

As expected, Tiger was indeed efficient.

Before Matthew could even reach home, he received a call from Tiger.

The owner and his family had left hurriedly in the morning, and were no longer in Eastcliff.

Matthew frowned; no doubt the owner must have known the true value of the jade bracelet.

Afraid that someone would eventually come knocking, the owner immediately left with the jade bracelet.

Matthew then ordered Tiger to have people start looking for the owner immediately. They had to get the jade bracelet back, no matter what.

Worse comes to worse, they could turn to Billy Newman and Timothy Wayne for assistance.

Tiger was shocked when he received Matthew’s order.

He knew that Billy Newman looked up to Matthew Larson, but he did not expect that Matthew could even mobilize Timothy Wayne’s people.

It seemed that Matthew’s power went far beyond his imagination!

Tiger agreed readily, then personally led a team to hunt down the owner and his family.

As soon as Matthew returned home, Sasha ran up to him.

“Matthew, how is the situation?”

Helen pursed her lips. “How serious can it be? Sasha, you’re overreacting! It’s just a jade bracelet! The jade in that shop is probably worth a hundred times more.

Do you think he would really run away with that measly jade bracelet of yours? Besides, why do you still want that cheap jade bracelet?”

Matthew sighed and said in a low voice, “The owner seems to have taken off…”

“What?” Sasha staggered back, nearly falling down.

Helen was also a little stunned. “Run away? What are you talking about? Is it necessary to run off just for that jade bracelet? Matthew Larson, are you trying to scare me? If you’re lying, I won’t let you go so easily!”
