Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 1202

Sonia found it absurd as she facepalmed and said, "My bad. I just realized that you might think hundreds of millions is a small amount of money since you are filthy rich. That's why you would say that this box is only somewhat valuable."

To him, having a few dollars is equivalent to having hundreds of millions. However, this is an enormous amount for me, she thought.

Hearing her words, Toby averted his gaze and looked at the screen again. "Do you like this box?" he asked.

"No." Sonia shook her head hastily. "Although this box is quite valuable to me, it also scares me."

"It scares you?" Toby raised his eyebrow, unsure why she would be afraid of a box.

Hence, Sonia explained to him. "This box has been in the world for quite some time, and by the looks of the carvings, it seems mysterious. Looking at it, I can't help but recall specific scenes from horror movies. There are many antique objects like this in horror movies. It gives me an eerie feeling, so I don't like it."

When Toby heard her words, he laughed because he didn't expect this to be the reason she was afraid. Only now did he know that she was scared of this.

"I was just thinking of giving it to you if you like it." He chuckled deeply. "It looks like I can't do that now."

Hearing his words, Sonia quickly declined and said, "Don't give it to me. I think I'm going to have nightmares from having it. Why don't you just keep it?"

"I won't give it to you if you dislike it," said Toby as he nodded.

Only then did Sonia sigh a breath of relief. Then, she looked at the box curiously and asked, "That's great. What's in the box, though?"

When Tom heard her words, he placed his phone on a stand. Then, he held the box with one hand and opened it with another. At that moment, the thing inside the box was revealed and exposed under the camera. It was an emerald jade without any impurities. No wonder it was being kept in such an expensive box. After all, the jade was more expensive than the box.

When Sonia saw the jade, she couldn't help but exclaim as she covered her mouth, "It's beautiful."

The jade was carved into the shape of a plum, and the petals and buds of the plum were ethereal. If it weren't an emerald green jade, it looked just like a real plum, which was mesmerizing enough.

Although Sonia had no knowledge about jade, she also knew it would be pricey. Not only that, even someone as amateur as her could tell that an expert did the carving. When such top-level carving and rare jade were combined, the price of the jade would be exorbitant. If she guessed it correctly, the jade's price would be a few thousand million.

Unlike Sonia, who was astonished by the jade, Toby frowned when he looked at it. There was a hint of shock flashed across his eyes. "I can't believe this is the relic," he said.

When Sonia heard his words, she looked at him curiously and asked, "Do you recognize this jade? No, that can't be it. This jade was given to Connor by your mother when they were dating. How would you recognize it when you hadn't even been born yet?"

When Valerie was dating Connor, she was not married to Homer yet. Thus, Toby was not born. That meant that he shouldn't have known about the existence of the jade. As a woman, Sonia didn't feel that Valerie would tell Homer and Toby about something she had given to her first love.
