Chapter 33
“Aren’t you the daughter of the Murray family, the wealthiest family in Jubilife? How could you not have 87 million dollars? Are you an Imposter?”
The shop assistant’s sarcastic remark further embarrassed Yasmin. Still, she couldn’t produce 87 million dollars on the spot. Grinding her teeth, she took out her emerald pendant from her pocket.
“I forgot to bring my card with me today. I’ll leave my emerald pendant here and have my household staff bring the money later,” Yasmin said.
“It’s 87 m
million dollars, and you’re giving me an emerald pendant…” The shop assistant, who had been impatient moments ago, suddenly changed her attitude when she saw the emerald pendant. She became respectful and said, “Please wait a moment. I’ll contact our manager.”
Noticing the sudden change in the shop assistant’s behavior, Yasmin was puzzled, but she immediately realized that the emerald pendant seemed to have significant value.
Her initial unease dissipated entirely. It was replaced by a triumphant gleam in her eyes as she tightly clutched the emerald pendant.
“Haha, I’ve hit the jackpot!” she thought.
“Mr. Quinn, we’ve just received news that Mrs. Quinn Senior’s emerald pendant has been found,” Samuel reported respectfully to Wilson seated in the main position.
Wilson narrowed his eyes at the news. His voice was cold as he instructed, “Prepare the car. I need to pay a visit.”
Martha always talked about thanking her life savior. Even if it was just a formality, he had to go. Otherwise, Martha would nag him again.
Besides, the lady did save Martha’s life, so it was only right for the Quinn family to repay her.
“Okay, Mr. Quinn. I’ll make the arrangements now.” Samuel then added, “Oh, Mr. Quinn, there’s another matter I need to inform you about. Elixirs Apothecary still refuses to sell the Nirvaroot to us.”
The Nirvaroot had excellent effects in treating Martha’s heart disease, so Wilson had been searching for it. He finally learned that Elixirs Apothecary had one, but they refused to sell it, even when he offered 100 million dollars.
A layer of frost formed on Wilson’s handsome face. He emanated an air of chilling hostility that sent shivers down Samuel’s spine. “If they won’t sell it, then we’ll take it by force.”
This was Wilson’s usual modus operandi. Samuel thought this to himself before promptly replying, “Understood, Mr. Quinn.”
Back at the mall, the shop assistant’s attitude toward Yasmin changed dramatically. She became exceedingly polite. “Please come with me, Ms. Murray. Mr. Quinn has requested your presence.”
This announcement shocked and excited everyone presept.
“What? Mr. Quinn is here?”
“Oh my God, Mr. Quinn is actually here! And he’s specifically asking for Yas
“This is so enviable!” NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Hearing these remarks greatly satisfied Yasmin’s vanity, and she felt a surge of pride.
‘But wasn’t Mr. Quinn indifferent to Vas at last night’s banquer?”
This sudden statement caused Yasmin’s expression to darken instantly. Noticing the change in her expression, the other socialites fell silent
at once.
Yasmin clutched the emerald pendant tightly. Although the words were harsh, they were true. Despite Wilson’s cold demeanor toward her at the banquet last night, he now suddenly wanted to see her.
Could it be because of the emerald pendant in her hand?
The shop assistant led Yasmin to the lounge, where she saw the cold and elegant man seated in the main seat.
