If the market price went beyond its intrinsic value, no true collector would touch it. Therefore, the highest this silky emerald could go for was 5 million. Compared to hers, it fell far short.
Even Julian couldn’t believe it; he never thought that stone would actually reveal a silky emerald.
With all his years of experience, he figured it’d just be some ordinary emerald, nothing rare. He really didn’t expect it to turn out this impressive.
He thought, Just this one piece of silky emerald is already worth 5 million. How is Nina, who has never dealt with gems at all, supposed to win?’
Julian laughed. “Why bother with the rest? Nina, just this one piece puts me miles ahead of you. It doesn’t matter how many you open. You won’t even come close. Just admit defeat and get ready for that striptease.”
Nina lounged back in her chair, arms crossed. “5 million, huh? That’s still junk in my book. Why are you so excited about it?”
Julian’s face turned stormy. Before he could get a word out, Lydi yanked him aside.
She said madly, “I’m down with you, Nina. What are you so smu about? You’re nobody, and the Swanson family let you stay for a few days. Do you think you’re some pampered heiress now
“If it weren’t for Martin, you wouldn’t even be allowed near my brother, let alone gamble on gems with him. That gem he just opened is worth 5 million. Do you even get what that means
“You could sleep with every guy in town and still never see that kind of cash. How dare you call an emerald like that ‘junk’? Who the hell do you think you are?”
Lydia glared at Nina like she wanted to tear her apart.
She and Julian hadn’t come to the Gemstone Exchange by chance today. Lily had told them Nina was here, so they came straight over.
Lydia had never met Nina before, but she already couldn’t stand her.
The Mercer family and the Swanson family were supposed to meet and talk about when Lydia and Martin would get engaged two weeks ago, but then, Martin got beaten up.
Martin was only in the hospital for two days, but his injured leg ragged on for two weeks before he could move comfortably again.
During this time, whenever Lydia brought up the engagement aain, Martin showed zero interest. He was constantly stressed and overwhelmed.
When Lydia asked him what was wrong, Martin just clammed up and wouldn’t say a word.
Lydia was getting desperate, so she went straight to Lily to find out what was going on. That was when she found out the truth-Lily wasn’t actually the Swanson family’s heiress. She’d been switched at birth.
The real Swanson heiress was raised by a nightclub girl, and she was a total brat. Ever since the real heiress reunited with the Swanson family, she’d been making Lily’s life miserable.
Martin tried to stand up for Lily, but Nina hit him.
Lydia was stunned speechless after hearing that. She’d never see a so-called heiress act this way-hitting her own brother right after she was just barely back in the family.

Lydia was fuming. She swore she’d get back at Nina for messing with Martin, so she had Lily keep tabs on her. Whenever Nina left the house, they’d show up immediately.
The moment Lydia saw Nina, she was itching to give her a serious beating. However, Julian told her to chill, saying he had a better way to get Nina thrown out of the Swanson family. That was why she held back and kept quiet.
However, seeing Nina shrug off 5 million like it was nothing. Lydia was absolutely fuming.
The moment Lydia finished speaking, someone kicked her hard, sending her flying.
Elaine ripped off her mask and hat, and before anyone could react, she grabbed Lydia by the hair and slammed her head onto the ground. She said in a chilling voice, “What did you just say?”
