After that, it was the second generation's turn, which included Penny, Iris, and Leon.

"Grandpa, Andy, and I would like to gift you this painting in the symbolism of great health and longevity," Penny and

Andy offered their gifts.

Soon, it was Iris and Leon's turn.

"Grandpa, Leon, and I have prepared a priceless jadeite statue for your birthday. We hope that it will bring you a

lifetime of health and prosperity," Iris said as she and Leon opened the gift box and handed the exquisite statue to

Patrick.

"A jadeite statue?" the color drained from Nigel's face when he saw this.

Coincidentally, he also prepared the same thing as his grandfather's birthday present, but unfortunately, his was far

smaller in size compared to Leon's.

Now that Leon already offered this gift, it would be humiliating if he did the same, with a smaller one, no less!

"Rats! Did that bastard do this on purpose?" Nigel was fuming at this. He met Leon for the first time when he and

Iris came to meet the Scammells, and at that time, Mister Umair, who was a cousin of Nigel's, got into a fight with

them over a misunderstanding.

Therefore, Nigel liked Leon it! Now, the fact that Leon prepared the same gift as he made Nigel think he was doing

this on purpose to embarrass him!

He could not help growing even more resentful of Leon at this realization!

"This statue is sparkling and multifaceted; I wonder what jadeite it's made out of."

"It seems like a cream-clear, but its clarity is much lesser than that of a cream-clear. I'm guessing it's a cloudy-clear

jade!"

The audience erupted into murmurs, their interest piqued by the jadeite statue Leon and Iris gifted. Most of the

guests at the party were socialites or members of the elite society in the Southern region, so naturally, they knew a

thing or two about antiques.

Most of them could tell that the jadeite statue was of a higher class, but because the orange jadeite was of a lower

clarity than the others, it made it appear as though the entire piece was of a lesser quality than its true character!

"What do you mean, cloudy-clear jade? The whole jadeite seems to be mottled in color and translucency. It's clear

that this is just a cheap, man made jadeite!" Nigel scoffed.

Nigel's statement made the entire room erupt into a flurry of activity.

"Yes, that sounds about right!"

"This jadeite statue is so colorful that it doesn't seem natural, and appears to be like a man-made jewel instead!"

Everyone was stunned to realize this.

The jadeite industry was a challenging one, and it was not uncommon to see poorly made, synthetic jadeites

interspersed with natural, genuine stones.

The jadeite before them was so colorful and so large that one could not help wondering if it were a piece of poor-

quality synthetic jadeite instead!

Not only that, but Four-Colored Jadeites were so rare that none of the audience could recognize this as a piece of

treasure, considering they were not professionals in this area at all. All of them thought that Leon bought this gift

off a black market that sold counterfeit stones!
