The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 100

"Boss, I think I must have brought the wrong wine bottle out since I rushed out of the house in a hurry today."

"So, you brought the wrong bottle out today?" Charlie smiled as he picked up another wine bottle that was covered in mud. He wiped the mud off with his hand before looking at it under the sun. After inspecting it, Charlie said, "What about this bottle, then? It seems as though this wine bottle was made in Suzhou."

Sure enough, there was a row of small characters written below the bottle.

"Made by Suzhou Craft Factory."

“I don’t know what is written on it since I am illiterate," The owner of the stall smirked as he replied. After that, he rubbed the sole of his feet against the oil paper, making it seem as though he was not interested in doing business with them at all.

Jacob became angry and annoyed when he saw that h e had been fooled.

Grabbing hold of the owner of the stall, he shouted angrily at him.

"You liar! Give me back my money!"

"What money are you talking about?! I have never seen you before in my life!" The owner of the stall shouted

back as he struggled to set himself free. Just then, the fake copper coins and jade horses that he had put on display fell to the ground.

However, when the jade horse fell to the ground, it did not break at all! In fact, it seemed to be made out of hardened plastic.

"I will call the police if you refuse to return my money t o me!" Jacob yelled as he exploded in anger.

Both of them continued struggling, and during their tussle, something fell from the owner's sleeve.

Charlie frowned when he saw the fallen item.

Staring at it, it turned out to be a fist-sized white pebble that looked just like any regular pebble that could be found by the river or beach.

However, the only difference was the fact that there were a few words carved on the pebble-Peace and Wealth!

The font was very crude, and at first glance, it was evident that these words had been manually carved onto the pebble.

This kind of pebbles with engravings could be found anywhere in the city, therefore, it was usually not worth any money at all. It was no wonder why the owner of the stall did not display the pebble along with the other items.

Charlie walked up to the pebble before picking it up. A s soon as he touched the pebble, he could feel the

blood boiling within his body.
