Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 479

Chapter 479 A Miracle Happened

Elise had done a thorough investigation. Back then, the Shaw Family became prosperous through betting on rare stones. However, luck had not been on Tom’s side after the business was passed to him.

In fact, the performance of Shaw’s Jewelry Co. had been hitting new lows since five years ago. With that, the business was on the edge in recent years.

Not only that, the company was also involved in various scandals in the past few years such as trading fake and radioactive jewelry. On the most serious occasion, they were even forced to cease business.

The 40 million that Tom used to purchase the ore today was most probably all the cash flow available in Shaw’s Jewelry Co. But alas, he still failed.

Tom stared at Elise with a complicated look.

Although Elise looked nonchalant, she wore a serious countenance, so Tom could tell that she was definitely not teasing him.

Now that the cash flow was damaged, Shaw’s Jewelry Co. was actually as good as going bankrupt, so of course, Tom would be more than willing to agree to Elise’s acquisition. However, he couldn’t bring himself to pass this doomed business to a sincere girl like Elise because he would not be able to clear his conscience.

As such, Tom sighed and said dejectedly, “To be very honest, Shaw’s Jewelry Co. has been performing terribly these few years and it can go bankrupt anytime. You’ll be pouring money down the drain by acquiring the business.”

“Who knows. There might be a miracle,” Elise answered with a smile.

“A miracle?” Tom laughed in a self-deprecating manner. “Is that even possible?”

Hearing that, Elise still remained calm in a kind manner. “How is it not possible? Mr. Shaw, you of all people should know very well that as much as miracles might rarely occur, they can happen anytime, anywhere, don’t they?”

Tom had taken over Shaw’s Jewelry Co. for more than ten years and had always run the business with discrete and integrity. The brand and product quality were not only famous in Landred City but in the entire country too.

This factor alone had saved Tom the effort of advertising and building the brand image in the process of regaining its former glory. As long as they could secure enough capital and obtain a presentable gem, Shaw’s Jewelry Co. would be able to come back to life.

Of course, Tom knew what Elise was implying, but it was even harder to get a real gem than to earn a fortune. In fact, that was his intention too, but fate had brought him a useless stone. Even fate was not on his side, so what else could he do?

Should he buy one from the others?

Rare things were precious, and even if the others were willing to sell, he would not be able to fork out the money anymore.

Shaw’s Jewelry Co. was doomed!

“Let’s have a gentlemen’s agreement then.” Elise wore a confident smile.

“A gentlemen’s agreement?” Tom asked in confusion.

Elise patted the stone that Danny was carrying. “If a rare gem is extracted from here, you’ll sell your business to me. What do you think?”

Tom looked at the ore and thought it was obviously not one that contained a rare gem.

Nonetheless, Elise’s condition was no harm to him, so there was no reason for him to reject it.

He actually wished to be a nasty person for one time and seize this absolute steal. However, he thought there was no such thing as a free lunch, so he had no other option.

Just then, the sound of exclamation came forth from the crowd which was spectating the mineral extraction process.

“This is an awesome one! Not only is it crystal clear, but it even has an emerald-green color too. This is definitely high-class jadeite. The Anderson Family of Athesea sure has a brilliant daughter with a good eye! ”

“This must be the most perfect jade extracted this time!”

The spectators were all impressed by Faye.

Meanwhile, Faye lifted her chin arrogantly and enjoyed the fawning from the crowd as she thought this was the way she ought to be treated.

“It’s our turn now. Let the show begin!” Elise curled her lips faintly and said to Tom, “Just stay here and wait for me. The miracle is happening soon.”

With that, she pushed her way through the crowd and walked straight up to the table where minerals were extracted.

While the people in Landred City were not aware of the complication between Elise and Faye, they could recognize the former, who spent 4 million buying a useless stone. Seeing Elise walk past them, the crowd wore a disdainful smile unanimously as they were waiting to watch the show.

“Are you only here now because you know what you got is a useless stone? Are you afraid of extracting the mineral in public?” Celina sneered in sarcasm.

“Perhaps I’m just waiting for you guys to extract yours first. After all, we’ll only know how amazing the real gem is when there’s a comparison.” After Elise finished saying that with a half-smile, she gave Danny a look.

Danny immediately understood her meaning and placed the ore on the table.
