Chapter 250
All the members of the Brooks family had their eyes wide open as they watched the Emperor Green
emerge from Vivienne s raw stone
“Did Vivienne just hit the jackpot? Asked a shocked Ashley “Is this rock really worth 30 million?”
“Definitely. It s worth way more than that. It’s closer to a billion!” Darren was floored.
Even Carl, who had previously thought of Vivienne as a clueless newbie, was now in disbelief. How
had he failed to see the potential in that stone”
Any small piece cut from it would be snatched up by high–end collectors before it could even hit the
market, let alone be seen by ordinary people
“You lost” Vivienne said to Eddy
Eddy was too stunned to speak. He hadn’t expected Vivienne to be this lucky as to actually reveal an
Emperor Green.
Though his sun green stone could make a number of bracelets, it still fell short in terms of quality and
color.
Calista and Jacob, too, were slowly recovering from their disbelief. They hadn’t expected that the stone
they casually picked out to trick Vivienne would turn out to be an Emperor Green. Not only was it intact,
but it was worth at least thirty times more than what she paid for it.
Their initial plan to make Vivienne lose big time completely backfired
Was it Vivienne’s luck, or did she really know her stone and had been subconsciously playing dumb all
this time?
Calista clenched her fists in frustration
Vivienne’s luck was simply too good.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Jacob said that this black stone could yield an Emperor Green, she thought he was just fooling
her, but it actually did
Vivienne didn’t care about what others thought of her. All she said to Eddy was, “Remember the bet
Although she didn’t really want to see it, others might have been interested.
Eddy’s face turned sour at the reminder. What was he thinking when he made that bet?
“Don’t think about skipping out.” Vivienne said with a light smile “Nobody can avoid paying their debts
to me.”
Her smile was faint, but it was cold and threatening
“I keep my word!” Eddy shot Vivienne a fierce look, intending to have Barret move his stone onto a
truck and leave immediately
But Barret objected, arguing that it was far too dangerous to travel with a gemstone worth millions and
a car full of vulnerable women.
After explaining the risks, Eddy had no choice but to call for a security team to escort them back
Vivienne left in Percival’s car.
Seeing that Vivienne had found an Emperor Green, Percival had already arranged for a security escort.
They were now moving her stone outside.
“Miss Brooks! Can you cut a piece of this stone to sell to me? A man approached her as she was about
to leave.
Just like Eddy’s, Vivienne’s stone was tempting to many, but no one could afford to buy it all on the
spot.
“I’m sorry, but I need this piece for myself.” Vivienne turned them all down.
Paula and Mila, who had been in the VIP room for coffee, were just about to come in when they saw
Thomas and his team moving Vivienne’s stone outside.
“Oh my God, an Emperor Green!” Paula, who had some knowledge about gemstones, recognized its
quality instantly
But when Vivienne and Percival walked past them without even a glance, Paula knew that there was
no chance she could buy it.
As they passed by Jacob, Vivienne said with a gentle laugh, “Thank you for letting me pick out this
wonderful gemstone.” Jacob turned pale and couldn’t speak.
Paula was furious at being ignored, but instead of creating a scene, she wanted to know who the owner
of the stone was. So, she went straight to her son.
“Eddy, who owns that Emperor Green I saw being moved out? I want to buy a piece to make a
pendant.”
“It’s Vivienne’s. Eddy replied darkly.
“What?” Paula exclaimed in disbelief.
Mila glanced at her daughter, Calista, and saw her pale face. She immediately knew they had
miscalculated.
“How much did she pay for it?‘ Paula insisted.
“30 million.” Eddy replied, his mood darker than ever.
Paula and Mila were shocked to hear this
“30 million? If that gemstone is sold, it could be worth a billion!” Paula exclaimed.
That lucky girl!
“Eddy, let’s go home.” Paula said
Eddy was feeling humiliated and didn’t want to hear any more about the stone worth a billion.
He was afraid he might vomit blood.
When they returned to the Brooks Mansion, it was already getting dark
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJudith and Scott, among others, decided to have dinner when they noticed the younger ones were yet
to return.
Just as the housekeeper finished clearing the dining table, several cars pulled up
The first to arrive was the vehicle escorting Eddy and Carl’s gemstones, followed by Percival’s car and
the vehicle summoned to transport the stones
Ashley was the first to disembark. She had a bright smile on her face as she addressed Judith “Granny,
I bought a top–quality gem that can be used to make a pair of bracelets and some jewelry You
promised to reimburse me, don’t forget.”

Chapter 250
Laughing Judith replied “Of course, I won’t forget” She then turned to the others. “It seems like
everyone had a good haul today”
Eddy had asked her for the car, saying he had found a great gem. After looking at the several cars that
had pulled up, it was clear his find must have been substantial. Edly should have been thrilled with the
gem he found However, the thought of Vivienne’s stone, worth a billion, made it impossible for him to
crack a smile.
After seeing Eddy’s sullen face, Ronald came to explain what happened to Judith “Our cousin Eddy
found a stone worth 300 million, and Vivienne found an emperor green worth a billion. Today’s haul
was pretty good”
Judith turned to Vivienne, exclaiming in delight, “A billion? Vivienne, you’re incredible!”
“I should thank Calista for recommending the staff, who zealously suggested this raw stone. I was lucky
that it turned out to be of exceptional quality” Vivienne glanced at Calista with a slightly teasing smile
spread across her face
Ronald and the others tell silent. This wasn’t just pretty good, it was extraordinary!
Who else could be lucky enough to find an emerald of such worth?
