“Stop! Rory, don’t be impulsive!” “Yes, Rory, what are you doing? You should in no way destroy an antique that is worth tens of millions. Put it down!”Casper and Elena shouted nervously. They quickly put their hands under the gift box in Rory’s hand, afraid that Rory would really smash such a valuable blue-and-white porcelain on impulse! Rory didn’t relent. He looked straight at Hellen and asked her to promise to accept it. Under his intense gaze, Hellen lowered her head and then nodded approvingly. A smug smile crept over Rory’s face immediately, and he then cast a glance at Richard who remained silent. He took Richard’s impassive face as a sign of subjection and felt even better. “That’s right. Mr. and Mrs. Travison, I just want to give you a gift. I’ll be very heartbroken if you refuse me.” Rory put down the gift box and said with a smile, “open it and take a look. If you don’t like it, I’ll bring you something more expensive.” James freaked out and broke out in a cold sweat.
Richard’s face darkened. It was okay for his mother-in-law to be so mean. Now even his father-in-law was becoming so snobbish and superficial.Hellen bit her lip. She lowered her head and did not answer.To be honest, her mind was in a mess and her heart was in a mess.She didn’t love Richard, but she had feelings for Richard After all, she had been with himfor four years, day and night. Besides, except for being useless, Richard was really good to her and took good care of her in life.She didn’t say it, but she still remembered it.Especially at the last family dinner, Richard knew Malcolm and stood out for her in front of the Travisons. She was very grateful for it.She couldn’t divorce Richard like this, because she knew that it was cruel for Richard!Besides, she didn’t love Rory either. The person she was fond of and thought in her mind now was the tall and burly figure who wore a clown mask.Chairman of Elliott Inc…However, Rory’s generous gift and passionate wooing did make
Richard smiled. He did not panic at all and spoke calmly.“I have to say, this fake is really well made. The material, texture, cracks all look quite similar to the real one. It’s really hard to tell the difference unless you are a professional.I believe that’s what you count on. You are sure that my father-in-law and mother-in- law can not tell the difference, so you sent it confidently.” Richard said with a smile. His words were full of confidence and his usual cowardice was nowhere to be seen, which made Casper and Elena dazed and felt that Richard was not the one they had been familiar with.Richard continued to speak. He began to talk about the blue and white porcelain, using various technical terms. At this moment, he seemed to be a professional antique expert, and his words seemed very trustworthy.As he continued, Casper gradually became awkward. Although he was not an antique expert, he also knew some common sense about blue and white porcelain antiques. Naturally, he co
Casper was more excited than when he saw Benicio just now, and he completely ignored his manner and walked over quickly, bent down and shook Cal’s hand. “Hello, Mr. Hall. I’m Casper. I’m your big fan!”Richard was also a little surprised. Now he could see that this was the famous Cal in the antique field. He had met Cal before. At that time, his grandpa was not paralyzed, and he knew Cal back then.But he was still young at that time, and now Cal probably didn’t remember him.Cal’s arrival changed the atmosphere in the room.Richard’s anxiety disappeared and he began to secretly rejoice. He was clear about Cal’s righteousness. He was a true man of virtue and skill. He was respected. In addition to his exquisite skills, there was one point very important. He was a man of integrity.Now that he was there, Rory and Benicio, these two drama kings, would probably suffer.Similarly, Rory and Benicio also realized this. They looked horrible. Rory’s face was completely uncontrollably gloomy.
“Mr. Bennett! That’s not what you said just now. You carefully identified it, said it was 100% authentic, and gave Richard a serious lecture! You said that Richard was a layman, didn’t understand antiques, and stained this blue and white porcelain from the Ming dynasty. Why did it become a fake now?” Casper said it in one breath, agitated.Indeed, it was such a setback for him.This would mean that tens of millions of dollars were wasted. The ups and downs were so sudden that his heart couldn’t bear it!Elena also shared the same excitement, “Yes, yes, Mr. Bennett, you have told us this is the treasure. You’re an antique expert. How could you possibly make a mistake? You even used professional equipment to authenticate.”Benicio hated Casper and Elena extremely, who were making things worse! Of course, the person he hated more was Rory. If Rory hadn’t called him over, he wouldn’t have faced such a dilemma! Thinking of this, he glared at Rory.Cal was a smart man. How could he no
When Richard saw Cal’s confused expression, he was shocked. Could Cal really recognize him?! If he was recognized, his plan would be in trouble.To be honest, Richard didn’t want to get involved with the Johnsons now, nor did he want hellen to know that he was a member of the Johnsons.Fortunately, Cal didn’t know him well, and the confusion in his eyes quickly disappeared.Rory was holding back his grievances. Hearing Richard's words, he laughed. “Do you know how valuable the blue and white porcelain of the Ming Dynasty is? How dare you say that!”He didn’t think Richard was showing off but thought he was just being a fool. He dared to say so. He had investigated Richard clearly.He was just a poor man from the countryside. A poor person like Richard could not afford the modern blue and white porcelain, not to mention one of the Ming Dynasty. It was even funnier to say that someone gave it to him as a gift.Richard smiled and said, “I know. Didn’t you just say it was worth more th
A seemingly ridiculous gamble was on, and Ryan and Rory had written it all down.Bath of them looked very confident, but except for Ryan himself, no one thought he would win. They all thought he was trying to make a fool of himself and would ruin himself in the end.Phoebe was furious. If she had known that, she would have listened to her parents and not let Ryan follow her. Now, she would have been humiliated again!And it was in front of outsiders, and she was very nervous and angry at the thought of what would happen next.The point was that if Ryan lost, he would have to divorce her.The word divorce did not appear for the first time. Phoebe had made this request before, but recently, she had no such idea.If that was the case, her divorce from Ryan would be a big joke!AdvertisementAfter setting up the documents, Ryan went down alone to get the Ming Dynasty blueand white porcelain.To be honest, he didn’t expect the Ming Dynasty blue and white porcelain that
In the private room, there was absolute silence, and everyone looked at him.Rory trembled a few times. He wanted to cry.“Impossible! You must be wrong! How could it be blue and white porcelain from Ming Dynasty with this color?” In a hurry, Rory’’s mind was in a mess and he pointed the spear at Cal.Cal’s face immediately turned serious when he heard this. “Rory, are you questioning my ability or my character?”Rory felt Cal’s unhappiness, and he realized that he had said something wrong. However, it was impossible for him to kneel down, kowtow and call Ryan a hundred times grandpa!Therefore, he would rather offend Cal than betray his dignity.That must be a joke to make him knelt down for Ryan. He would rather die if so.So he snorted heavily and said, “I can’t tell. As everyone knows, Ryan is just the uxorialocal son-in-law of the Scotts and a poor boy from the countryside. For so many years, he couldn’t even find a job. He would only stay at the Scotts to re
