At this time, Claire took the bracelet in her hand before she asked, "Charlie, you made this yourself, right?” 4
"Yes."
Charlie nodded before he replied, "This pearl and clam shard necklace has the effect of calming the nerves and it will help you to sleep well at night. If you wear i t often, it will also help you to ward off evil. It was a little too rushed today that is why the workmanship is a little rough. I promise to make you a more beautiful bracelet when I have the opportunity to do so in the future." 2
Before he could even finish his sentence, Claire smiled and said, "Thank you, Charlie. I like it very much." 4
"I am glad that you like it."
Charlie heaved a huge sigh of relief at this time. 2
The jade bracelet that he gave to Claire before this was in fact very precious and valuable. However, Claire did not wear it much.
In fact, Claire was a very simple and casual person. She did not care much about gold or silver jewelry and she did not like to wear anything that is too showy. 3
However, Charlie could tell that Claire really seemed t
o like this handmade bracelet.
When Elaine saw that Claire was really impressed and in love with the broken handmade bracelet, she muttered under her breath, "It is not even gold or jade. It is just a bracelet made out of worthless shells and pearls. What is the use?” 3
Charlie smiled because he did not want to argue with her. 1
Moreover, it was fine even if Claire did not know the value of the bracelet. If Claire were to find out that this was a magic bracelet that the rich would bid at least a billion dollar for, then she would not want to wear it at all. 3
After giving the bracelet to Claire, Charlie went out to look for a courier in the city in order to mail the stun talisman and return the black card to Graham.
This way, he would at least have a satisfactory explanation for Graham.
At the Quinton family mansion, Jack was sitting on the sofa in the living room at this time and he had a very gloomy expression on his face. He had not said a single word since he entered the house. 6
His main purpose in making this trip to Aurous Hill was simply to get this treasure. He knew that the Holy Pearls of the Ocean was embedded in the clam and he knew that if he used the clam to make magical artifacts, he would be able to make a lot of money out o f it. The value of the treasure was immeasurable!
