Chapter 143 Master Was A Little Girl The solemn sentence “I don’t know him” stunned Jared for a moment. His face sank suddenly, “What’s wrong? That Owen bullied you again? Tell me, I’ll let someone put a sack on him and beat him again!” “No need. You don’t bother him.” Hailey’s expression was calm. “I just hope he lades out of my life right now. as far away from me as possible.” Jared looked at his sister deeply and didn’t think she was talking angrily. “What happened? Don’t you still love him?” Hailey stopped chopping vegetables and looked up at Jared, “Brother Jared, I’ve grown up, and I’m no longer the little girl who used to take affection seriously.” She smiled again, “Now, I love myself more than I love him.” It was really hard to love someone all your life. During this period of busyness, Hailey regained her self-confidence and gave her a new understanding of herself — She may be more suitable for a career than romance. This was the field she was familiar with and good at. Just like the expression of the “Ring to Life” designed by Ada, “If no one favors me as a princess, then I will become my own queen.”
The next morning, Owen went to the Madezew Museum before going to the company. The Madezew Museum was a private museum of Moore. It was semi-open. Mr. Sharman and Old Mr. Moore were old acquaintances. They used to work in the Cultural Relics Bureau, After retirement, they came to help the old friend with the museum affairs. He had watched Owen grow up since he was a child. Although the two had no appellation between master and apprentice, they had a real relationship between master and apprentice, and their relationship was close. Mr. Sharman looked at the rose chair with admiration, and his eyes behind the reading glasses were sparkling, “It’s really good, the rose chair with a legendary dragon pattern carved with . openwork carving and scentedrosewood. Boy, is this yours?” Owen said, “Yeah.” ”You really brought it to show filial respect for me?” Mr. Sharman was a little unbelievable while surprised. Owen said another “Yeah”. Mr. Sharman sat on it, closed his eyes and felt it for a while, shook his head, and said in a suspicious tone, ‘You suddenly try to please me, and you must have a request. If there is anything you need me to help, just say it.” Owen gave the gift and directly stated his intention, “I want to ask you about Master Jade.” “Master Jade… I heard that the news on the TV recently was all about her, and she came out again, didn’t she?” Mr. Sharman was very well informed. Hearing this, Jose felt it was hopeful and asked excitedly, “Do you know the old woman?” “I do not recognize.” Mr. Sharman shook his head first, then frowned, “However, who told you that Master Jade is an old woman?” This time it was Owen’s turn to frown. Jose opened his eyes and asked, “Isn’t that Master an old woman?” “Master means that her accomplishments in a certain field have reached a high level. It’s all about skill, not age.” The rose chair was good, but the backrest was not high. When people sat on it, the top of the backrest just reached their back. After sitting for a long time, they would feel their spine was not very comfortable. Mr. Sharman had enjoyed enough and stood up. Owen raised his hand to help him, and the three of them walked toward the living room. “Mr. Sharman, how much do you know about Master Jade?” Jose was making tea and asked carefully, “You said just now that she is not an old woman. Could it be that she is still a little girl?” Mr. Sharman squinted his eyes and thought for a while, “Let me think about it. When I first knew her, she should be less than ten years old, wasn’t she a little girl. Now… she is fifteen, sixteen, seventeen…” He scratched his fingers and did a little calculation, exclaimed, “Well, it’s been seventeen years, and she should be under thirty this year. Compared with me, of course, she’s still a little girl.” Mr. Sharman said as if it was easy to understand, but it sounded complicated to Owen and Jose. The famous Master Jade was not even 30 years old this year! How could that be??? In the president’s office, Brook asked Hailey as soon as he entered the door, “How are you going to celebrate your twenty-fifth birthday?” Hailey was burying her head in the document, not looking up. “I don’t want to celebrate.” “No way.” Brook walked over, leaning halfway on her desk, “You have to eat a meal and celebrate your birthday. After all, you are close to thirty years old after this birthday!”
What a sad topic. That’s why she didn’t want to celebrate this birthday. Girls, who didn’t want to stay young forever and live forever at the age of eighteen? Hailey raised her head and glared at her little brother coldly, “What’s wrong with being close to thirty? Even if I’m in miy seventies and eighties, I’m younger than you and prettier than you.” “It’s true that you’re younger than us. You’re the last one your mother gave birth to. As for how beautiful you are…” Brook paused deliberately, and under Hailey’s gaze, he reluctantly admitted, raised his hand, and touched her hair, “Okay, you’re the best looking. Even the gods are not as beautiful as you.” Hailey patted his hand in disgust and warned him, “You must not give me any birthday party. I won’t go.” “How can we eat cake if we don’t have a birthday party for you?” Brook answered as a matter of course and smiled with crossed arms, “I’ve already said hello to your brothers, and they’re all coming io Poya to celebrate your birthday. But my brother may not be able to come, and he has to be busy for a while” Hailey hoped that her brothers could come Since the death of their mother, their brothers and sisters had been busy all over the world,
and they had not been fully reunited. She pinched her brows and said weakly, “If you have to have an opportunity to reunite, then let’s do 11.” “That’s right, don’t be afraid. You’re only twenty five years old, and you’re still five years away from thirty.” Brook’s words did not bring any comfort to Hailey She curved her lips at him with a fake smiles, but a lyric arose silently in her heart: You will never understand mny sadness, just like the daytime never understand the darkness of the night… Hailey’s birthday was soll more than a week away, so she didn’t have to worry too much. There was a more important thing right now.
“Your reputation as Master Jade is getting more and more famous. Many people are looking for you in this comeback. Even our Kirkland has a lot of people asking me to buy your works.” Brook changed his joking tone and said seriously, “In today’s Internet age, information is everywhere, and if someone follows the traces and checks it out, he will probably find you. What on earth did you plan to do?” Hailey pondered, “I have no other purpose in doing this except to create momentum for Newman jewelry, mainly to force Grandpa to come out.” “No news about Jason Newman yet?” Hailey shook her head, “The media made such a fuss. Grandpa should have seen it. This is a signal we agreed on. The day Jade comes out is when he goes home. I think it should be soon.”
