“You seem to have fully regained your former lively state, Mr. Hunter.”

“Well, it might be slightly impolite to consider me as lively. I’m simply back to my normal self.”

Luke was holding an exquisite shopping bag, though the brand logo was unrecognizable. Perhaps it was from a friend.

The number of connections a jeweler had could often be beyond one’s imagination or expectation. A small–time jeweler like Chloe already had an impressive and unmeasurable network, let alone someone like Luke, who had been in this industry for over a decade.

“Why did you even bring me gifts? You didn’t have to go to such trouble!”

Lake placed the shopping bag on the desk. “Isn’t it customary to bring a gift when visiting a beautiful lady?”

“What is?”

“Open it and take a look yourself.”

Linda put down the pen in her hand and took a box from the bag.

There was a hairpin adorned with a large ruby inside. It was more like a a dangling h

hair ornament.

“Don’t tell me that you’re giving this to me.”

He nodded. “This piece was probably one of my works back in university. I let it in a friend’s shop, and it’s just been sitting there ever since. No one showed any interest in it. I had decided that if someone ever wanted to buy it, I would tell them it’s a shame it never caught anyone’s eye.

“Chloe mentioned recently that you’ve been looking for a dangling hair ornament like this. So, I figured I might just gift it to you since no one wants it. It’s not worth much

Linda was in disbelief. She could tell how valuable it was just by feeling its wright, not to mention the massive ruby in the center. The tassels were colorful gemstones, which were finely crafted.

“Don’t be fooled by the size of that ruby in the center. Its clarity is actually quite low, Despite its size, It is only worth around a hundred thousand dollars. The gemstones on the tassels are in a similar price range.”

He knew Linda wouldn’t believe him, so he explained with utmost sincerity, “Those unfamiliar with it often think that the bigger the gemstone, the higher the value. But clarity matters the most in reality Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Let’s take this by as an example. It’s indeed Veridiania pigeon blood ruby. It makes you think it’s expensive just by hearing the name, right?”

Linda nodded in agreement, Veridiania pigeon blood ruby was indeed highly valuable.

“However, this gemstone isn’t of high clarity. You might not even get around a hundred thousand dollars if you were to sell it on the market now even with the current shortage of gemstones. It won’t be able to fetch a high price with this level of clarity.

“This was a piece that I made back in university. It’s been over a decade since I graduated. Do you truly think I could’ve afforded a high–quality ruby with perfect clarity back then?” Linda didn’t know much about Luke’s background. However, she knew the Hunter family was rich.

“I’m telling you. It’s not worth much. I wouldn’t be getting it to you if it is.”

”

you’ve already given me so many things. It would be quite rude of me to accept anything more from you.”

Barbara entered with lunch boxes at that moment. “Ms. Felix, it’s time for lunch ”

This assistant was a new hire and was unfamiliar with Unda’s preferences. “I wasn’t sure what you like, so I got you two options.”

*Linda nodded

Luke said at the sight of that, “This gemstone truly isn’t worth much. How ab

He replied, “st think of me as a tramp.”
