"Alright, let it be so. Later, I will take the gifts and personally deliver them to Dulcie’s parents." Layla decisively stated: "There are things us adults can discuss more easily amongst ourselves." Dulcie didn't know what to say. She felt somewhat unhappy, yet there was nothing she could do about it. With Layla's support, Maynard's expression slightly improved. At this moment, the collectors' gathering at another section of the hall officially began. The group, led by Maynard, moved towards the center of the Treasure House hall, with Theophilus following behind Dulcie. The Treasure House hall was brightly lit, with long antique tables and redwood chairs arranged throughout. Talented individuals gathered, sitting down and engaging in lively conversations. On each long table, precious items like jade ceramics or calligraphy paintings were displayed. The entire grand hall was decorated in an ancient style, giving the impression of stepping into the mansion of a noble family from

"Whose antique is this? Could you please come forward to verify?" Maynard said, momentarily unsure of what to believe. "Mr. Jones, could it be as he said? How could this worthless man recognize it, or is he just guessing?" Reginald asked incredulously. "How can a freeloader like him recognize it so quickly, and even talk as if he knows a lot? I'm sure he's just guessing." Rowan said mockingly, dismissive. "Reginald, if you don't understand this field, don't make baseless comments. This is an item I collected, and it is indeed a Ming Dynasty plate." a young man sternly said to Reginald, then turned his doubtful gaze to assess Theophilus. To authenticate this valuable item, it took him several months, consulting no less than ten experts, all of whom initially declined, before finally determining the true origin of the item. "The exquisitely crafted Qing Dynasty bronze censer is mine." said a bespectacled elderly expert, looking somewhat awkwardly at Theophilus. Previously, he had mo

"Hmm..." After observing the long red wooden table for a while, Maynard looked thoughtfully at Theophilus: "Expert Jake, why don't you come over and take a look? Do you have any opinions on this famous painting?" "That's right, Expert Jake, aren't you an expert? None of the guests here dare to comment on these two collectibles; this is a perfect opportunity for you to showcase your expertise! Share your opinion!" As soon as Maynard spoke, Reginald immediately echoed, addressing Theophilus with a peculiar tone. "It's an original work by Xu Wei from the Ming Dynasty." Theophilus replied nonchalantly, succinct and to the point. "All of us have examined it closely for a long time and still couldn't come to a unanimous conclusion. He makes a judgment from a distance? He's bluffing too much, isn't he?" An elderly expert expressed dissatisfaction, as if Theophilus's demeanor was insulting experts like him. "Huh, what kind of level is this? Who doesn’t know it’s a Xu Wei painting?" Maynard

"Spot on, wonderfully articulated! Mr. Jones' knowledge is not to be underestimated. I've been in this field for thirty years and have never seen anyone with such precise and discerning judgment." an expert with glasses exclaimed in awe. "Mr. Jones' thought process aligns with ours, but we didn't have the courage to conclude as he did!" another senior expert remarked. "Excellent insight! To see such a high-class collectible at today's gathering, this trip has been worthwhile." a master from another family expressed. "Cheng Hua Doucai porcelain is already valuable, but a rare matching pair, and originating from the House of Xu? Its significance and value are truly exceptional!" another master enthusiastically added: "With Master Roy's contribution, it indeed broadens our horizons! Mr. Jones' judgment also elevates our understanding substantially!" Maynard eyed the pair of porcelain vases with a burning gaze. He turned to Clement and asserted firmly: "Master Roy, for these vases, I b

Theophilus stood up, walked over to the wooden table, and picked up a piece of the shattered porcelain. "When porcelain is fired to its final shape, natural lines will form, but the lines on this porcelain are too perfect. This is enough to prove it's a counterfeit." Theophilus calmly said. After speaking, he threw the piece he was holding at Maynard. Maynard, both shocked and skeptical, picked up the fragment to examine it, then his face darkened, looking as if he was choking, his complexion turning the color of liver. The distinguished guests present, still in shock, suddenly hearing these words from Theophilus, hurriedly stabilized their emotions and quickly rushed to the wooden table, their expressions serious, beginning to inspect the fragments of the two porcelain vases. "Mr. Jake is absolutely right, from this fragment it's easy to distinguish. The refinement, shine, thickness, and other aspects of the lines inside this porcelain are too perfect! Ancient porcelain was handc

Elsewhere, Theophilus and Dulcie went downstairs, where Barrett was already waiting in the car by the main road. "Theophilus, how did you know it was a fake, and why do you have such deep knowledge about antiques?" Dulcie couldn't help but ask curiously. She had never expected Theophilus, known to her as her husband for years, to have such an exceptional understanding of antiques, leaving her speechless. Yet, even many renowned antique collectors at Treasure House admire him to the ground, even inviting him as an honorary guest of the company? Is this still the ordinary Theophilus that she had no particular impression of? Theophilus laughed and said: "This is a secret." "Hmm." Dulcie cast a disdainful glance but then her expression also settled down, Theophilus becoming increasingly mysterious in her heart… “But, things won’t be that simple, right? You’ve humiliated them, made them a laughing stock in front of everyone; they surely won’t let it slide." Dulcie worriedly said: "Tha

Swoosh! At this moment, an extremely luxurious red Bugatti Veyron shot out from a small alley, its engine roaring loudly. Two men in black coats, with cold expressions, got out of the car and rushed over, raining down a storm of punches and kicks. They beat Maynard's group until they fell to the ground, screaming in pain. Clearly, the skills of these two men in black far surpassed those of the other bodyguards. "Disappear from this street within a minute." the man in black coldly and ruthlessly said. The bodyguards clumsily climbed into the car, immediately driving away from the antique street. "Mr. Jake, you weren't hurt by these useless ones, were you?" The man in black asked very politely, approaching. Theophilus's eyebrows slightly furrowed, glancing at the red Bugatti Veyron worth over two million USD, seemingly with someone sitting in the back seat. He had not arranged for anyone to come to the antique street. The two men in black were clearly not ordinary bodyguards, th
The Noble Son-In-Law Denial Of Inheritance! Chapter 54: Threats And Seduction!
"Theophilus, isn't it a bit rude to treat a lady this way?" Pandora reproachfully said, half pouting: "I kindly helped you deal with the people sent by Maynard. Think about it, if it weren't for my efforts, how could you have made Maynard lose all his dignity today? Now, don’t you even have time for a cup of tea?" The two men in black suits maintained their cold and stern expressions, but there was a slight wavering in their demeanor. In their perception, the young mistress had never been so cheerful and cordial with a man. Given Pandora's character, if Theophilus had refused right away, wouldn't she have immediately become angry, then ordered them to beat Theophilus severely? How could she be so gentle with this good-for-nothing? Theophilus hesitated for a moment, then nodded. The two men in black drove a flamboyant red Bugatti Veyron, with Pandora taking a seat in the back, and Theophilus following suit. In a short while, the car left the antique street, driving on the bustling

"Open for me!"Theophilus's innate energy burst forth wildly, his sword qi continuously clearing the path ahead."Whoosh!"Three minutes later, Theophilus shook himself, darting through the hundred-meter path and out of the reach of the deathly qi, arriving outside the magic array."Finally made it out, the Divine Realm outside couldn't pass through that array; looks like they'll have to leave empty-handed this time."Theophilus chuckled softly.He looked up, and the scene before him resembled the Sword Washing Lake of the Jake family on Jake Wolves Mountain.It was an ancient mountain cave, with a precious sword embedded in the middle of a rock formation. Despite hundreds of years passing, one could still sense the sharp aura from it, next to the sword lay an ancient chest.Theophilus smoothly walked over to the stone platform, unimpeded by any magic formations.He reached out and grasped the long sword."Hum!"The sword seemed sentient, Theophilus could clearly feel its excitement.

Uncle Mark slowly emerged from the shadows. He wasn’t a Human Immortal who took the path of an assassin and had no intention of protecting Keagan, but now, unexpectedly, Keagan regarded him as a lifeline.“This time, we will not get involved!” Snow stepped forward and declared loudly.She was no longer as calm as before. In this Pineview Preparatory secret realm, it wasn’t uncommon for half-step Human Immortals to overpower full Human Immortals. There were always a few in every era, but not like Theophilus, who had Keagan begging for his life after just three moves.Seeing that the unfamiliar Human Immortal didn’t want to intervene, Keagan suddenly stepped back and said to Theophilus: “Theophilus, if you agree to forget our grudges, I am willing to recommend you to the Nichols family. With your talent, you will surely be valued by the Nichols family, and even Earthly Immortal is not far off!”“Ha!”Theophilus gave a cold laugh, stepped closer to Keagan, his sword qi enveloping him, re

Suddenly, everyone's view of Theophilus changed.If Theophilus really belonged to one of those families, then Mr. Perez and those who had surrounded him today were truly unlucky.Old man Perez's head also tingled; he had thought the young man before him was just a talent with some strength, but now it seemed not."Young man, your strength is indeed formidable, but we have been renowned for many years, and we do have our trump cards. Just swear you won't bother us, and the agreement we spoke of earlier will still hold!" Linus said darkly, speaking softly.Theophilus scoffed with disdain. Just moments ago, they had treated him like a mere annoyance, and now they wanted a truce—it was too late!"Give it your all!"Old man Perez shouted, his voice waves growing more intense.Linus and Latham also stirred the vital energy within them, staring intently at Theophilus.Theophilus smiled slightly, ready to make his move.Suddenly, he frowned and looked to the south."A master is coming from th

"Ha ha!"Theophilus scoffed, having already discerned the intentions of this group. They were all ruthless and cruel individuals. Although some had been half-stepping into the Human Immortal Realm for a while, their potential had nearly depleted, with no hope of breaking through to the Human Immortal Realm.He wasn't afraid of these people; moreover, he wanted to make a name for himself after this battle. Only then would he have a chance to connect with the truly powerful clans, and only through cultivating with those forces could he hope to break through to the Human Immortal Realm."With just you folks trying to defeat me?" Theophilus mocked."Young man, your strength is indeed impressive. Your sword energy could kill the wolf of the Wolf Lord. I might not stand a chance against you in a duel, but you're too arrogant. Do you really think you can defeat the four of us?" Ludwig said bluntly."One useless person multiplied by four still wants to gang up, huh?" Theophilus replied calmly

The person in front of him was clearly a woman disguised as a man, but her technique was terribly clumsy. Anyone who wasn't blind could see that she was a woman, and moreover, she wasn't very old.Theophilus looked at the person masquerading as a man with a serious gaze. Just now, he had felt a threat emanating from her.The strength of the woman before him hadn't yet surpassed the Late Divine Realm, but she could still make someone on the verge of breaking through to the Human Immortal Realm like him feel threatened."Tsk, tsk!"The woman in disguise looked at Theophilus and the others, then said regretfully: “Your strength is too weak; you definitely won't get anything good. Moreover, the Earthly Immortal treasure opens only once every fifty years, and it has already opened ten times now; there’s nothing good left.""Fifty years for one opening?" Dempsey exclaimed.The woman looked at the three men in surprise: "You don’t know? This Earthly Immortal treasure was discovered decades a

The mysterious elder appeared annoyed, thinking, was he considered a naive toddler? He had never encountered anyone from Meditation so young with such formidable power."Kid, you must understand, I am a guest of the Nichols royal family. You should think carefully before offending me; I might even know your elders!""Based on you alone?" Theophilus looked down disdainfully and said coldly: “The Nichols family invites guests as weak as you? Knowing my elders, are you worthy?"'What a coincidence!'Theophilus couldn't help but marvel internally, not expecting to encounter a guest of the Nichols family so soon after entering this secret realm."You..."The guest of the Nichols family, truly there because of his senior brother's connections, was enraged. If it weren't for having a senior brother in the Human Immortal Realm, the Nichols family wouldn't have bothered with him."Kid, since you refuse the wine I offered and prefer punishment, today I'll send you straight to heaven."The elder

Theophilus flew straight ahead, encountering beasts much larger than those in the outside world, perhaps because this place was at the edge of a mysterious realm, where the concentration of spiritual energy was four to five times higher than outside. Earlier, while flying, he had effortlessly dealt with a snake as thick as a water barrel coiled around a tree that attacked him."Cultivation here is much faster than in the outside world, and according to Malcolm, every major and minor family in this realm has its own sacred ground for cultivation, where the speed of cultivation is ten times faster than in the outside world.” he thought as he flew.About an hour later, Theophilus finally sensed people ahead—more precisely, four men chasing a man and a woman."Wilson, are you sure you want to attack us? Aren't you afraid of my family's Liles' retribution?" Dempsey Liles shouted as he shielded a young woman behind him, staring at Wilson not far away, his eyes filled with hatred. If it hadn

Rafael could not endure any longer; he collapsed to the ground, his voice trembling: "Young Master Alexander, it was my blindness that did not see the mountain; I didn’t know Maegan was your girlfriend, please forgive me this time, Sunset Valley Corporation will do everything possible to make amends to Young Master Alexander.""That's right."Uriah murmured, "The Lippman family is willing to do our utmost to compensate Young Master Alexander and Ms. Brown.""It's not that I can't give you a chance," Theophilus looked at them with a mocking gaze and said, "As long as you do one thing, I might forgive you!""Please state your conditions, Young Master Alexander!" Uriah gritted his teeth, ready to bleed if it meant Theophilus’s forgiveness."It’s simple, you must cancel the contract Maegan just signed, and write a new one without any conditions," Theophilus said calmly."That's no problem," Uriah hurriedly replied, thinking it was going to be a huge deal, only to find it was just this min

The relationship between Magnus and the head of the Radiant Harbor Chamber of Commerce, Isidore, was excellent. Normally, there were many things their company couldn't get past the Chamber of Commerce.Moreover, there were rumors that behind Magnus and Isidore stood another significant figure. No one in all of Empyria dared disrespect that person.The female star, still by his side, whispered softly, "Director Lippman, that Maegan girl really doesn't listen at all. Freeze her out for a while, teach her a good lesson! Can someone else play the lead in Maegan’s next movie?"After speaking, she hugged Uriah's arm and rubbed against it a few times.These past months, Maegan had become very famous, causing many in the entertainment industry to turn green with envy."Slap!"The female star had just finished speaking when Uriah pulled his hand away and slapped her hard."Director Lippman, why did you hit me?"The female star held her face and rolled on the bed, asking in disbelief."If you s
