The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 42

The young lad who came from Lin City was Leo White. Due to a family member suffering from cancer, he wished to sell off the family treasure for money.

A few other store owners nearby were also there after hearing about it.

After Peter explained the background story to Yvonne, he introduced her, “This is our lady boss, Ms. Yvonne.”

Leo nodded honestly and said, “If you as the lady boss is unable to decide, I will have to go to another store.”

After saying that, he opened the box.

In the box was a blood-colored jade pendant.

With an antique carving, the surface was round and moist. The most unique part was that there was some red tear-like pattern inside.

Yvonne could not stop talking after she set her eyes on it. “Blood tear jade?”

The few other antique store owners took deep breaths and were all in awe.

“Hey, it’s really a blood tear jade.”

“Look at the color, it’s top quality.”

The few antique store owners were chatting among each other, and were amazed. Leo felt proud and nodded with pride to Yvonne. Then, he said, “You’re really the lady boss. With just one look you can identify that it is a blood tear jade. Did you see the word carvings on the surface? It belongs to the Eastern Jin Dynasty.”

The blood tear jade was a type of an ancient jade. The blood jade was formed by mixing the blood of ancestors. This particular kind of jade with a tear-like pattern inside, was known as the blood tear jade.

As such, it was extremely rare.

After hearing Leo’s words, all the other antique store owners became emotional.

“It’s really from the Eastern Jin Dynasty!”

“That’s right, look at the carving on the surface. It is definitely from that era.”

Yvonne asked Leo after admiring it for a moment, “How much money do you want for it?”

Although that was the first time Yvonne had seen a blood tear jade, she had seen plenty of materials about the blood jade. The one Leo had was the same as what she knew. Hence, Yvonne was very certain it was a real blood tear jade.

Hearing the comments from the other few antique store owners, she was more confident with her judgement.

However, the moment Yvonne asked Leo about the price, Darryl silently shook his head.

Others might not know about the blood jade, but Darryl was an expert. Darryl’s grandpa had one. He used to play with it when he was little. Hence, at first sight, he knew Leo’s was a fake.

The young lad really had the guts to cheat the Young family.

Yvonne was still young and inexperienced. Thus, it was a given that she could not identify the scam. However, even the other few antique store owners joined in? It seems like they were only carried along in the conversation. It was humiliating indeed.

Thinking of that, Darryl had no intention of revealing the scam yet. He was just observing how things progressed.

At that moment, Leo waved his hands and said, “150 million bucks!”

Yvonne nodded and bit her lips.
