"Jade pendants carved with dragon and phoenix? I heard that the Finn family has a pair of ancestral jade pendant carved with dragon and phoenix, made of top quality imperial green jade, back in the day, it was made by the palace craftsmen. I wonder if I can see them today."
"I heard that the Finn family doesn't particularly care about the marriage, probably not the pair."
"What do you know? That jade pendant is not the Finn family's, but the one that Levi's mother brought over with her at the time of her dowry. The Sharp family is a hundred year old family, can the things that come out not be good things? Levi is the only son of Miss Sharp, if he gets married, then it must come out of Miss Sharp's dowry."
Today, the Harold’s came a number of customers, and at this time, listening to the voices upstairs, they all exchanged words.
Many people looked at Spencer with envy on their faces, and Spencer subconsciously straightened his back, full of pride.
After Chester read the gift list, someone carried an ebony box and came down from upstairs, the box in his hand was open, and it was empty, there was nothing inside.
The crowd was slightly stunned at the sight, and Spencer was also stunned for a moment before he reacted, and his face suddenly paled.
Levi had already put down Ruby at this time, the two of them stood at the entrance of the stairs, looking at the person coming down, the corner of Levi's lips hooked, looking at Ruby, asking in a soft voice, "What? Did you take out the jade pendants?"
"I haven't seen it, it's been sitting in my room." Ruby replied indifferently.
Spencer's face was blue at this moment, how proud he was just now, how humiliated he was now.

He felt embarrassed.
But, it wasn't over.
Upstairs Chester was still continuing to read the gift list, as he read one item, someone with an empty box from upstairs down.
Ruby didn’t say anything, but with a smile on her face, she watched as one by one the empty boxes and empty crates were carried down from upstairs.
Levi brought a lot of people over today, and after a group of people came down and put them in the living room downstairs, they went back up to continue.
Soon the living room was filled with dozens of empty boxes.
The entire Harold’s living room, quiet, no one said anything, yet they all looked at Spencer in unison, Spencer's body swayed and almost could not stand still.
This was the most embarrassing moment of his life.
"Dad, if you are in a tight spot and need money, just tell me, how can you ......" Ruby sighed and looked up at Spencer, his face full of helplessness.
Spencer opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but he didn't know how to do so.
His face was on fire at this point, embarrassed and humiliated.
The eyes of those people seemed like knives, desperately plucking at his body.
"Levi, I think my father he is .
