“I am ready to buy them right now.” Smith replied with a smile.“So am I! Mr. Sam, I will take them.” Ivy immediately agreed to the transaction.Kevin shook his head,“What a shame!” He thought to himselfA real string of Pearls like these would be worth a couple of hundred thousand dollars.“Ma’am, are you trying to snatch these away from me?”Smith asked.Then he turned around and looked at Sam,“I will tell you what, I’ll give you seventy- five thousand dollars.”Ivy was a little un-nerve,“Mr. Sam, you came in here with a valuable item. I just said that we are buying the Prose and now you are saying you want to sell it to this man? Don’t you have any integrity?”The on-lookers all nodded their heads in agreement.Smith’s behavior was not the way reputable people did business.One of the on-lookers said to him,“This is not an honest way to handle things. You came in here for President Anderson.”They were all on Ivy’s side in this.After all, the family has a good reputation in t

It wasn’t really their faults, the Gold sun-burst Pearl was very rare and valuable.They probably have never seen the real one in their entire lives.“You had better find proof, otherwise I am calling the police” Sam continued.“Wow… you really are stubborn.”Kevin turned around and looked at Ivy and said,“I am sure you have some equipment in your lab. Go ahead and check them out, I’m sure these are fake prose maybe even made out of plastic that had been chemically treated to fool the eye.”Ivy handed them the broken prose and said,“Go and examine it, quickly.”“Yes president, right away.”Mr. Gilbert quickly picked up the string of pearls and headed to the lab.“But how will I know if you won’t switch them with fakes?”Sam shouted out loudly.“Don’t worry, we will never do such a despicable thing.” Ivy answered shortly.She was no longer offended, she definitely felt lucky.If Kevin had not been there, her reputation would have been tarnished.Mr. Gilbert returned quickly and whisp

“In any case, I owe you my thanks. I will treat you to dinner some other day.”After Officer Helene said this, she headed out towards Squad car and left.The owners of the neighboring antique shops also left.Ivy slowly walked to Kevin and said very sincerely, “Thank you.”“No need to thank me, it was my pleasure.” Kevin said with a smile.When Ivy heard him say this, a faint smile appeared on her face.“By the way, I could tell through your discussion of the pearls that you know a lot about this subject. Have you had any old training in antique appraisal?”Kevin thought for a second and said,“I used to know an old gentleman who thought me a lot about antiques.”What Kevin didn’t expect was that Ivy would be so curious and excited to hear this.She asked him,“Are you still in touch with him? Do you know his name and address?”Ivy gave Kevin a hopeful look. She wondered how he had been able to see through the deception at a single glance.He obviously knew things that she didn’t.Ivy

A little over an hour later, the four staff members who had screwed Kate’s show entered the CEO’s office and saw Collins Coke sitting in the office’s chair.“Why are you still staying with the Jones family?”“I have my reasons mate, let’s just drop this subject for now.”Kevin answered.After a few more minutes of small talks, Kevin asked Miss. Johnson to walk Collins back to the elevator.Then he let her know that if Williams Media needed hotel in the future, they should put Whitefield hotel on the top of the list.After Collins left, Kevin’s phone rang.Martha’s voice glazed Kevin’s ears,“You are a real piece of work, you haven’t been home in days. Do you have any idea what just happened? Hurry up and meet us in the Jones mansion!”Actually, Martha didn’t want to see Kevin. It was Grandma Jones who ordered everyone in the Jones family to come right away.She was furious.“Alright, I will be right there.” Kevin responded.Then he hung up the phone and rushed over to the Jones mansio

He quickly sneered and said confidently, “What right do you have to question my involvement?”“Then how can you be so sure that this is my wife’s responsibility?”Kevin noticed something in Drake’s reaction and said,“Could it be that all these is your fault?”Drake looked at Kevin awkwardly.Just as he was about to attack Kevin physically, he remembered what had happened at Grandma Jones’s birthday party and he lost his nerve.Kevin took advantage of Drake’s hesitation and said,“I don’t care who caused the troubles at Kate’s show. All I know is my wife Lily, is innocent.”Kevin’s intent was obvious and they all knew what he meantHowever, nobody was willing to agree without some solid evidence.“I think you are deliberately trying to cause trouble. Who do you think you are to say all this nonsense?”Drake clenched his fist.“Remember, you are not a true member of the Jones family and you have no say here.”“I didn’t say you did it Drake. Why are you getting so worked up?”Kevin repl

Kevin couldn’t really understand what Grandma Jones was thinking.How could she refuse to believe Kate and these four men?“We are telling the truth.”The fourth employee blurted out.“I still have the receipt of the bank transfer. I have not removed a cent out of the money he gave me.”As he spoke, one of his partners took out his phone and shouted,“I’ve got proof too!”“Don’t try to put all the blame on us.”Said the other one as he tried to pull out his phone.They knew what kind of man Drake was but however, they decided that they would rather face Drake’s wrath than to explain themselves to Collins Coke.Drake was furious.He stared at them as they were holding up their phones.“Drake, are you really responsible for all this?”Grandma Jones looked really upset.Drake didn’t know what to say to her.Suddenly, Kevin nudged to Lily’s shoulder and asked her mischievously,“How are you doing? Do you feel any better now?”“Shut up!”Lily scowled but she was definitely relieved.After

Without looking at the caller ID, Kevin didn’t answer right away.“It must be my boss looking for me, I have to go back to work now. Take care of yourself Lily.”Kevin didn’t give Lily a chance to ask him any further questions, he just turned around and left.He walked pretty far from the Jones Mansion before he took out his phone.He checked his call logs and saw that it was Ivy that called him earlier.Slightly confused, Kevin dialed the number.“Sorry, I wasn’t able to pick the call earlier. Is there anything I can do to help you?”Kevin asked.“Kevin, I really need your help. Do you have the time?” Ivy sounded anxious.“I think I can pull away from work for a while. Where are you?”Kevin asked straight-forwardly.“I’m at the store, I’ll be waiting for you at the door when you get here.” Ivy replied.She wanted to make sure that Kevin had a better welcome than last time.After hanging up, Kevin waved down a taxi and got to Anderson Antiques in less than an hour.As he got off the t

Kevin turned around and looked at Ivy. He asked,“How much did he ask for it?”Before she replied, the man said hurriedly“Two hundred thousand.”“That sounds about right.” Kevin nodded slightly.The rude on-lookers said loudly,“Who does he think he is? It is not even worth fifty bucks. Mr. Anderson already said it was a fake.”Tony was disappointed to see this.Looking at his daughter Ivy, he asked calmly“So, this is your expert?”If there hadn’t been so many people around, he would have scolded his daughter.She was actually paying this guy a hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year? Sure, they could afford it but he still didn’t like to waste his money.When Ivy heard this, she thought to herself.How could Kevin come up to a decision that quickly?Did he even know anything?She was starting to her doubts.Tony looked directly at Kevin and asked him warmly,“Can you tell me why this thing is worth two hundred thousand dollars?”Kevin thought the painting deserved ten times that

After about five days, she would be like any other normal person, and she wouldn't be able to use medicinal herbs to regain what she had lost. I can't believe that this pill can do all that, Kevin marveled. His thoughts were interrupted by an unfamiliar ringtone. For a second, he wondered if there was a burglar in the house, but then he realized that the sound was coming from his pocket.Who would be making a video call to Penny in the middle of the night? Could it be her boyfriend? Kevin wondered. By reflex, he answered the call. A moment later, he saw a beautiful woman standing in front of her closet picking out clothes. Oops, didn't mean to see that, Kevin thought to himself.She looked very familiar to him, but he just couldn't place her. While he was looking at her, trying to figure out who she was, the woman turned around to see why nobody was talking yet. When she saw Kevin, she screamed and disconnected the call.That's when Kevin realized that she was the young woman whose gr

"How much do you want?" His father asked him, as expected, Wyatt started to freak out. Mike said, "You think money grows on trees? Didn't I just give you that much a few days ago?" How could Wyatt Tripp not go ballistic? He'd worked his entire life to build up his business and now his son was just giving his money away. Mike was frustrated by his father's response. He'd only gotten in this situation because he was trying to get elected student leader.If his father wasn't willing to help, he might have to tell his classmates the truth. "What are you talking about, Dad? School’s going great. And my teachers are fantastic." Mike told his father, laying it on thick. "It's definitely a serious program."“What the hell are you talking about? When did I ask you about school?" Wyatt shouted into his phone. I don't give a crap if you like the place or not. "Don't worry, Dad, I'm doing great." He continued. "But it would really help if you could transfer some money into my account.""I'll tra

"It wouldn't be a great idea to trick her like that." He really didn't want to make a bad impression on Penny. "No problem, Mike." Luther continued. "If Penny helps you pay the bill, you can use it as an excuse to get closer to her. You could even connect with her online to arrange to repay her and to get to know her better." Mike got really excited by this idea.He slapped Luther on the back and said, "I like the way you think. It's a good thing I brought you two guys along." When Kevin heard this, he quickly headed back to the VIP room. As he got to the door, Penny was walking out. Kevin came up with a plan of his own. As Penny brushed against him, he used the light touch that he'd learned about in the secret guide and took her phone and wallet.Let's see what Mike does now. Kevin smirked as he slipped the items into his jacket. With all his posturing, he isn't really that strong. Let's see him show his true colors. When Kevin returned to his seat and sat down, Mike and his two budd

"That has to be disappointing. You think you're more handsome than me? Everyone knows that just isn't true." Kevin teased him. "What do you mean by that?" Mike retorted as he slammed his fist on the table. "Don't be angry, Mike. This whole thing really isn't worth it." Lionel tried to persuade his friend. Then Luther tried to calm him down. "Relax, Mike. You're absolutely right. Kevin must be jealous of you. That's why I said there's something wrong with this pill.""You still don't understand, do you? Both you and your father were cheated by someone. This isn't an augmentation pill at all. Kevin told them bluntly. An augmentation pill is more of a light blue color. Plus it contains some floral ingredients which gives it a beautiful fragrance. Take another look at the medicinal pill you just gave our professor." Kevin continued."It's obviously the wrong color and has no fragrance at all." They were all stunned to hear him say this. Even Penny reacted and stared keenly at Kevin. Mike
CHAPTER 193
"Don't be so modest, Mike. Who is better qualified to be our class leader?" Luther chimed in. The rest of the students just sat there quietly and watched the show that the three of them were putting on. But they didn't want to seem ungrateful. So they were willing to go along with the idea of electing Mike to the position."Since no one has any objections, then how could I decline? But let's just call it a temporary position. If anyone feels that I'm not carrying my weight, just say so." Mike declared as he raised his glass to toast his classmates.Professor Murdock stayed out of the discussion. And quietly observed her students as they drank their wine and socialized with each other. Meanwhile, Penny just sat quietly by the window nursing her glass to mute. Her classmates were too intimidated by her to go up and talk to her.While this was going on, Mike took Lionel aside and asked him to go down to his car and bring back a red gift box that he'd left in the trunk. Lionel came back a

"Since you think this is just a bus pass, I guess I'll just put it back in my wallet." Kevin said as he started to take it back from the concierge. “Well, since you've already taken it out, why don't we give it a try?" Mike replied. He obviously didn't want to pass up this opportunity to make Kevin look like a fool. So he ran things up and added."Let's see what the hotel staff can do with it." While the crowd was laughing at Kevin, the hotel employees were staring in disbelief. They weren't sure how to defuse the situation. The employee who was holding Kevin's card started to get very nervous when she took a good look at it. During their training, all of the employees of the Whistler Hotel had been required to memorize the appearance of the Supreme VIP card. And that's exactly what Kevin had handed her. Cook had explained to them that there were only five cards like this in all of Veridonia. And they were only given to the hotel's most prestigious clients.The group of students saw t

"Unfortunately, the Whitsler Hotel's largest room was only available to special guests." Mitchell Cook didn't mind if the largest private rooms remained empty most of the time. It was more important to have them available for his wealthiest clients. Since the staff hadn't been alerted by Cook that there would be a VIP group this evening, they assumed that this bunch of students didn't have the proper reservation."What kind of rule is that? I don't have a membership card, and I'm not from around here. All we need is a room. I don't care how much it costs. I'm willing to cover it." Mike said confidently."I'm sorry, sir. Without a VIP membership card, we won't be able to open the room for you." The concierge replied firmly. "Then can I apply for a membership card right now?" Mike asked. You could tell he was extremely disappointed to see his plans fall apart like this."I'm sorry, sir. Our largest private room is only available for our most exclusive members. Als

"Please, just say it. You won't hurt my feelings." Kevin exclaimed as he watched the road. "Just look at what happened in the parking lot. Your classmates were all looking down on you because they thought you didn't have a car. It seems that you invite this kind of ridicule, “she said bluntly."If you're too embarrassed to take anything from your wife, then you really should jump at this opportunity." Professor Murdock told him earnestly. "The School for the Healing Arts is the greatest opportunity in your life. Just work hard and focus. If you have any questions, you can always come to me. This is your chance to make a name for yourself.""I understand what you're saying, Professor. I'll definitely work harder from now on," he replied. Kevin stopped at a crosswalk and said to her very sincerely, "But could you please give me my phone back first? I promise I won't take it out during class."“Haven’t you been listening to me?" she snapped at him
CHAPTER 189
"Mike's absolutely right," Lionel agreed. Kevin, "Professor Murdock really took it easy on you today. That's why you're being allowed to come along to tonight's dinner. Don't put any of your classmates in an embarrassing position. Just take a taxi. If you don't have enough money on you for a cab or to call for a ride on your own, I'll give you a few bucks to cover you. How about $20?" Then he pulled some cash out of his pocket and offered it to Kevin.Everyone around them laughed when they saw him do this. They really thought Kevin was pathetic. Kevin frowned as he looked at the money in Lionel's hand. He wondered what the heck was wrong with these guys. "Aren't you overwhelmed by my generosity?" Lionel grinned as he patted Kevin on the shoulder. "There's no need to thank me. After all, we're classmates.""Did I tell you I needed a ride? “Kevin replied very coolly. "What do you mean? Don't tell me you drove here." Mike sneered."You really drove here, Kevin? Quick, show everyone what
