Fulfilling the Bet
The General Manager of the jewelry store, Jack, came after hearing the news. It had been several years since the stone gambling store had cut opened such a top-grade raw jade, which would be a very good publicity gimmick for the company.
Jack first looked at the material before loudly congratulating Vivian. “Miss Vivian, congratulations!”
“Thank you, I’m just getting some luck from your jewelry business.” Vivian replied with a low-profile smile.
Jack was naturally happy to hear Vivian’s words. He then revealed the purpose of his trip. “Miss Vivian, on behalf of our jewelry store, I would like to buy this piece of Jade for 60 million Yuan. Are you willing to part with it? ”
Jack’s price was very fair, but top-grade goods were hard to come by, and there was no lack of rich people present who didn’t want to miss it. Almost as soon as Jack opened his mouth, some people couldn’t wait to start bidding.
“I bid 62 million!”
“63 million!”
“64 million!”
“I���ll pay 65 million!”
…
“To show my sincerity to Miss Vivian, I’ll offer 68 million!” Jack shouted.
The company had just received a huge order of 200 million Yuan. The head of the Roth Family and the eldest daughter of the Weiss Family were going to get married in half a year’s time. The eldest daughter was also a person who loved Jade. One of the two sets of jewelry to be used on the wedding day was all Jade. Jack was worried about this matter, but this Jade came at the right time!
So no matter what, Jack would not miss this piece of Imperial Green Jadeite!
It became the highest price in the auction, and the Jade was successfully won by Jack.
Pierre’s face turned green when he saw this. At this time, Vivian turned around and looked at him with a smile. “Mr. Pierre, please fulfill your bet.”
Seeing the smile on Vivian’s face, Pierre was so angry that the corner of his eyes twitched. “Miss Vivian, the more friends you have, the more paths you can take. There’s no need to make things too ugly. Being on good terms with the Smith Family is a great opportunity for people like you.”
Pierre’s words were full of threats.
Vivian’s lips were still smiling, but her eyes had turned cold. He wanted to use his family’s power to force her to lower her head and erase the bet, but she just didn’t want to do as he wished.
From the moment she escaped, she had already offended that madman Bruno. Why would she be afraid of adding him to her list of enemies? Besides, she didn’t intend to stay here. So what if she had offended him?
Vivian sneered. “You’ve said so much just now. Are you trying to go back on your word? Or am I ignorant? is this the Smith Family’s tradition of making friends?”
As soon as he said that, the people around him looked at Pierre with a strange look. Those who were not afraid even laughed out loud. There was even a rival of the Smith family who shouted, “The future heir of the Smith Family can’t even afford to lose. He’s going back on his word for a small bet and even wants to threaten this beautiful lady. He’s really shameless!”
To put it lightly, it was because he couldn’t afford to lose, but to put it seriously, it was because he had a problem with his character. If the heir of a family had a problem with his character, who would want to work with such a family?
As expected, after hearing this, the crowd’s discussion grew louder. Pierre even heard someone in the crowd say, “I didn’t expect the heir of the Smith Family to be like this. It seems like we need to reconsider our cooperation with the Smith Family.”
Seeing that this small matter was about to affect the Smith Family’s business and threaten his position as the heir, Pierre panicked.
He looked at Vivian in the crowd, his eyes filled with anger and hatred, but he had to say loudly, “You’ve misunderstood. I’ll naturally fulfill the bet. The Smith Family won’t go back on their word! I’ll be paying for all the expenses tonight!”
Pierre’s promise brought about a wave of cheers from the crowd, but it also made his face turn ashen. This was the entire crowd’s expense, at least 200 million Yuan. This was not just scraping his skin, but digging out his heart.
“Are you satisfied now?” Pierre gritted his teeth and said fiercely.
It was all because of this woman. If it wasn’t for her, he wouldn’t have lost so much!
“Sir, you still owe me an apology.” Vivian said calmly, unafraid of Pierre’s piercing gaze.
“What did you just say?” Pierre couldn’t believe his ears. This woman had caused him so much trouble, and she still dared to ask for more?
