Reborn From Ashes novel Chapter 235

"Well said! That's a very inspiring speech! Kid, I've made up my mind. I'll give you 10 million in exchange for the gem. You've earned my respect!" Benjamin said calmly, smirking slightly.

At that point, he was sure the gem would be his, and the Sterlings had lost their chance!

The gem belonged to Hayden because he had ownership. If he refused to hand it over to the Sterlings, they had no way to take it away. Meanwhile, Benjamin would be the final winner in the end.

"Hmph!" Hayden shot a sideward glance at Benjamin, his gaze chilling. He would make Benjamin pay for his actions in the future as well!

Everyone stood in place as the situation came to a standstill.

Suddenly, a voice could be heard coming from outside. "Mr. Schnapp, the president of Stonybrook's Chamber of Commerce, is here!"

When they heard the name, everyone's eyes widened immediately as if they were facing a powerful enemy.

Why would David come here all of a sudden?

Even Benjamin started panicking, his eyes filled with terror.

Very soon, David entered the room, and his gaze fell on Hayden.

"Mr. Schnapp, what brought you here? Is there something that strikes your fancy? I can send my men to deliver it straight to you. You didn't have to come here personally!" Benjamin quickly greeted him in a respectful tone, smiling brightly.

"I'm just browsing. This place is quite lively today!" David stated casually.

"Of course…" Benjamin smiled awkwardly, gesturing to his subordinates through his gaze. They quickly sprang into action.
