Chapter 261: The Presence of Others
The value of the emeralds in Bruce's bag was $33,000. The raw stones they cut after the fourth stone contained emeralds. "I just said that I bought this for you. Of course, this emerald is yours now." Bruce looked at Emma and smiled. "Anyway, I heard your conversation at the shop earlier. It seems like you ran out of stock recently," Bruce continued. Emma hesitated for a moment and looked at the emerald in the bag. The woman shook her head and then responded, "It's fine. These emeralds are just a very small amount to me." "So what if the amount is so small? It's still worth something, no matter how small the amount is. Think of it as my investment in you. If you don't want it, I'll throw it away." With that, Bruce raised his hand to throw away the bag in his hand. Seeing Bruce's earnest expression, Emma feared that Bruce would throw away the precious emerald if she didn't agree. "Wait." Emma quickly stopped him. In the end, Emma receives the emeralds from Bruce, although Emma tel

Chapter 262: Wanting to Look Great
"Hello." Bruce politely extended his hand, but Quinton only glanced at it before walking into the building with his hands behind his back. Quinton's student, Alden, also shot Bruce a disdainful look. "My master is quite busy at the moment, Miss Agnesia. We specifically took the time to meet with you in honour of your father. We should hurry up and get down to business." Alden grinned at Emma, but his gaze remained fixed on Emma's feet. Bruce secretly sneered as he thought, "Mr Morrison is too arrogant, and he underestimated me. This student doesn't seem like a good person either. Just look at his expression. This guy must be thinking of something obscene." "Okay. Then let's go in." However, Emma did not notice Alden's gaze. Emma followed Quinton into the courtyard while Bruce and Alden walked behind them. "This time, I'm counting on you too, Mr Morrison. You will benefit from this, too, so don't worry." As an entrepreneur, Emma knew to

Chapter 263: Feeling Suspicious
Quinton even spoke carefully in a low voice as if he was afraid of others eavesdropping. The man's face was serious as he pointed at the seemingly ordinary raw rock before him.Indeed, the rock Quinton pointed to had a darker area with a dragon-like shape."Miss Agnesia, honestly, I would have bought this for myself if not for my lack of funds and the sake of my friendship with your father. I am 80% sure this stone contains top-quality red jade." Quinton was so excited during his explanation that even his ears turned red.Emma was surprised. As Emma studied the stone before her eyes, she said softly, "Ah, is there a top-quality red jade inside?""That's right. We will record the quantity of these raw stones and buy them at the auction tomorrow," Quinton said."Okay," Emma replied, nodding in agreement as she stared at the stone intently.There will be hope for Emma if the stone contains top-quality red jade.Although Emma lacks raw ma

Chapter 264: Taking Care of Emma
After asking a drunk Emma where the address was, Bruce drove off and soon arrived at his destination.It was a housing estate made up of luxurious houses.When Bruce arrived at Emma's residence, he knocked on the door."Donna, I've taken your sister home," Bruce shouted.However, no one responded to Bruce, even after he shouted several times.Meanwhile, Emma, whom he was carrying, muttered, "Shut up! Let me tell you, Bruce, don't mess with my sister! L-fight me if you want."While talking, Emma also began to squirm on Bruce's body. Her warm breath and the friction between their skin made Bruce feel warm."Fight me!" Emma shouted."Could Donna still be practising her violin at the instrument shop? But it's past 7 pm now," Bruce mused aloud.Later, Bruce started looking for the house key in Emma's bag and unlocked the door before entering.The two-storey residence was pitch black as no one was home.Bruce swi

Chapter 265: Confusion and Panic
While wearing a serious expression, Bruce touched Emma's body, and the piercing cold made Bruce shudder.Emma's body temperature must have been around minus 30 degrees Celsius.Had it been an ordinary person, they would have been frozen to death. However, Bruce could feel that the woman's vital signs were normal, besides her pulse and blood pressure dropping."Emma has what disease?" Frowning, Bruce looked at Emma, whose face was contorted in pain. Emma's body temperature was still dropping, falling drastically by at least ten degrees Celsius in a minute.When Bruce touched Emma's body earlier, at that time, he only assumed that Emma had a condition that caused her body temperature to drop.Despite having medical knowledge at the time, Bruce could not find a condition that could cause such symptoms even after racking his brain. It is no exaggeration to call this an unprecedented disease."Mmh... Mmh..." Over time, Emma seemed to be in even m

Chapter 266: Clarifying the Situation
The next morning, a knock came from outside the room, followed by a girl's cries."Come out for breakfast!"Emma rubbed her eyes. "I slept so well yesterday. It felt like I was hugging a big heating pad," the woman thought."Mmm," Emma's sigh sounded.Suddenly, Emma felt something in her arms, like she was hugging an item. The sensation made Emma open her eyes, and in the next moment, she felt as if her heart would stop beating.A man's chest was right in front of her. Emma's arms were wrapped around a bloke, while Emma's long, slender legs were pressed against his thighs."Ah!" Emma cried out in surprise. At that moment, her eyes focused, and she recognised that the man was Bruce.Shocked by Emma's deafening scream, Bruce moved but only waved his hand lazily without opening his eyes fully."Shut up. Last night was excruciating, and I only fell asleep at dawn," Bruce said."Last night? Excruciating?" As Emma echoed those

Chapter 267: Suspicious Feelings
The morning sun shines on Bruce's smiling lips as he mocks himself for his current situation."I now owe more than 100 Expertise Points. If that amount isn't repaid in one day, I'll have to collect another 20 Expertise Points as interest," Bruce thought.At that time, Bruce recalled the high-quality glass jade he saw in the tower on Jade Street.Bruce's eyes lit up as an idea came to his mind. "It's almost impossible for me to pay off this huge debt bit by bit by waiting for the System to give me an assignment. I have no choice but to take the risk now," Bruce mused.High-quality glass jade was the only solution Bruce could reach for. Although Bruce was still determining the number of Expertise Points he could absorb from it, it was still worth a try."Whatever. We're going to the auction today, so I'll take advantage of the opportunity to try and think of a way to buy that piece of glass jade. If I can't, I have no choice but to take a shortcut,"

Chapter 268: Facing the Assassin
Before Bruce could catch his breath on the bed, Liam jumped up to attack him with a dagger.At that time, the difference between armed and unarmed people became clear.Bruce's fighting skills were on par with Liam's, but it was clear that Liam had more experience in combat. All the moves Liam made were deadly, and he was clearly in an advantageous position with his dagger.While Bruce was dodging Liam's punches, he heard footsteps from the stairs. Instantly his expression changed."Are Emma and Donna coming? Shit! They will be in great danger if they enter the room at this time. Liam is a c-class criminal fugitive. I'm not even a match for him to begin with. If I have to protect them, my position will be even worse," Bruce thought.But if Bruce shouted to stop them from going upstairs, normally, people would be more likely to rush upstairs. They would rush in out of curiosity."Don't switch your mind when you're fighting."After that

Chapter 269: Trying to Hide
Liam looked at Bruce, who was sliding towards him. Liam's right leg might have been injured, but it didn't affect Liam's ability much. Their abilities were still evenly matched, just like before. Their battle zone slowly moved right until they were by the side of the dressing table. Bruce's eyes lit up when an idea came to his mind. Suddenly, Liam felt like his trousers were caught on something. Liam's trousers somehow pulled down, exposing almost his entire bum. "Oh? So even murderers like to wear cartoon underpants." Bruce was dumbfounded when he saw Liam's underwear. They were blue underpants with pictures of cartoon characters posing. Although Liam was slightly surprised by Bruce's interruption regarding his favourites, Liam's attack did not seem hesitant. Liam ended up getting very angry. Liam did not even have time to pull his trousers back up. However, the crotch of Liam's trousers affects his movements. The sound of ripping fabric rang throughout the room as she furiously

Chapter 270: Congratulations
The wardrobe was messy, but Donna didn't find anything strange.Emma breathed a sigh of relief. "What are you looking for? Tell me. I'll help you find it."Emma's tone at that moment sounded like she was back to being an older sister like before.Donna frowned slightly as if wondering why there was nothing in the room. When she looked around again, a cylindrical object under the blanket suddenly caught her attention.Donna lifted the blanket, only to find a curling iron for women.It is common to see such an object in a woman's room. However, Dona noticed that there were some liquid stains on it.A hint of curiosity flashed in Donna's eyes before she looked at her brother meaningfully. "Hmm, I know it might be hard not having a boyfriend, but... you don't need to use this. I-I think my stuff should be in my room. Let me go back there and look for it. I'm already a tomb, and I'll be out shortly."After saying that, Donna ran out of Emm
