Victory in Life
Chapter 167
The pink diamond glowed gently under the light, but its brilliance seemed to blind the eyes of everyone within the hall.
Zane was made speechless in shock. He stared at the pink diamond in Anna's hand in great disbelief.
At that moment, Zane felt his scalp numb.
"How did this happen?"
"How could the worn-out accessory that Jasper bought without much thought could be a priceless treasure?!"
Although she was not from the jewelry industry, as someone from a wealthy family, Zane had seen more precious items than ordinary people.
Thus, he could easily tell when something was valuable.
This pink diamond is definitely not something of low value!
It felt like countless invisible slaps were directed at his face and hit him until he was reddish and swollen.
Zane gritted his teeth while his eyes turned red. He was so jealous that he lost it.
Right now, he looked like a fool who had just been busy consoling himself by hurling insults and insulting words at Jasper.
"Angel's heart really comes with a secret?"
Mitch Langdon muttered loudly. He found this situation amazing as well.
His words represented the minds of everyone present in the event hall
The host had told them that there was a secret in the Heart of Angels. Mrs Shannon White has even been examining the jewelry for over a decade just to find out the secret. Everyone thought it was just a trick.
Perhaps Shannon White had been deceived by her own.
After all, no one would take such a myth seriously.
However, the turning point of the incident came to them like a loud slap in their face.
"What if it's a pink diamond? You spent 100 million Dollars Harbor on that. Even if this pink diamond was worth more than 100 million Dollar Harbor? Aren't you just as used?"
Mitch sneered mockingly.
He really could not bear to see Jasper acting tall and mighty in front of everyone.
Jasper's free and easy attitude was like a constant stab to his heart.
"Fright! You're exploited!" Zane shouted loudly.
Pouting loudly, Mitch continued to add fuel to the fire. "What makes you so proud? A village hick from the Mainland will always be a village hick. See how happy he is for such a cheap bargain."
Jasper said calmly, "This is only 100 million Dollar Harbor. Anyway, I bought it using your check, Mr. Langdon. I don't mind at all."
Mitch's face reddened in anger after hearing what he said.
Mitch hummed in response to everyone's curious gazes and expressions reflecting their longing for gossip. He remained silent after that.
He was afraid the previous scandal would be revealed.
It would really embarrass his whole family.
"Miss Law, can you let me see this pink diamond? In the chaos, the chairman of Chadstone Jewelry walked to their side without anyone noticing."
He then asked Anna this while staring at the pink diamond in his hand with an obsessive look.
Anna glanced at Jasper. After he nodded, he handed the pink diamond to the chairman.
Receiving the pink diamond with both hands, the chairman of Chadstone Jewelry exclaimed happily, "In the past, the largest pink diamond auctioned at a public auction was an 18.96-carat pink diamond, the one that has been auctioned off at Christie's Auction House."
Just five minutes after the auction, the diamond sold for 360 million Harbor Dollars.
"Although this pink diamond is not as big as that one, it has a better color level and seems to be much clearer. It will be considered as the highest quality diamond. Gems like this are truly a rare sight in this world."
"Sorry, Mr. Laine. I want to ask you something. If possible, I'd like to buy this pink diamond from you for 300 million Dollar Harbor."
Although many of the people present here were richer than the chairman of Chadstone Jewelry, no one could match him in terms of authority in the jewelry industry.
His words caused everyone's expressions to change.
Especially Mitch Langdon and Zane Lancaster.
They mocked Jasper for spending 100 million Dollar Harbor with great difficulty a few seconds ago. Just a split second later, everything backfired for them.
"300 million Dollars Harbor!"
It could be sold for a colossal price of 300 million Dollars in Harbor City
