Chapter 630
Every person present had an eagerness in their eyes, almost unanimously asking, “Miss Harriet, who do you plan to sell this piece of jewel to?”
The price of that exquisite piece of jewel had now escalated beyond 9 million and reached over 10 million in the never-ending bidding war, with an upward trend still visible. The truth was that 10 million dollars were almost equivalent to the annual income of many company bosses.
And here was Harriet, a young girl who had earned it in less than an hour.
Even they were envious of Harriet’s luck!
They weren’t at all worried that Harriet wouldn’t be able to sell this exquisite piece of jewel!
With a fortune of 10 million close at hand, who wouldn’t take it?
But the next second, Harriet’s response shocked everyone present.
Harriet nonchalantly took the jewel from Delbert’s hand, her lips parting slightly to utter a few words that instantly drove everyone into a frenzy, “Sorry, I’m not selling this jewel!”
Not selling?
What was all their earlier eager bidding for?
What did their earlier actions mean when they humiliated Lily and offended the Lynch family just to please Harriet?
They were complete clowns!
Seeing the crowd’s collapse around her, Harriet spread her hands with a helpless look on her face.
She didn’t say she would sell the jewel.
She wasn’t short on money. Not to mention that her eight brothers would transfer money to her bank account from time to time, casually adding up to millions, making her wealth surpass that of most of the big bosses in Imperium.
Moreover, she was planning to keep this piece of jewel as a gift for her eight brothers.
But seeing the pitiful state of the crowd around her, she couldn’t help but feel a little sorry for them.
She sighed helplessly and continued, “I have another use for this jewel stone. After this period is over, I’ll come here again. By then, the jewel I get may possibly be sold to others.”
Upon hearing Harriet’s words, the onlookers slightly reined in their disappointed expressions.
Although they were internally falling apart, they still expressed understanding for Harriet’s decision to keep the exceptional piece of jewel.
After all, Harriet was the beloved sister of the eight tycoons of Imperium.
After getting such a piece of exceptional jewel, she would surely take it back to report to her brothers, using it to strengthen her own influence and carve out a share of the Bass family’s assets.
These assets were far more valuable than mere numbers in a bank account.
If Harriet could hear the thoughts of those present, she would probably die laughing.
To carve out more assets?
To strengthen her influence?
She didn’t know when the family of her eight brothers became such a den of intrigue?
The imagination of these onlookers was simply too wild!
Seeing that the crowd had no intention of pestering her, Harriet breathed a sigh of relief.
After giving a few instructions to Lewis, she once again entered the stones area, ready to pick out a few more rough stones.
After cutting them open, she planned to take them along with the piece of jewel she already had.
The crowd, which had been ready to disperse, paused their departure upon seeing Harriet head towards the stones area and stayed to watch.
They were curious whether Harriet’s ability to produce exceptional jewel was due to sheer luck or solid skill.
But it wasn’t long before the onlookers were stunned again!
