Chapter 97
Audrey left the residence and went straight to Hollyvale Manor,
When Katherine saw Franklin’s painting, she was excited and happy. Especially since this piece was not an auctioned off by Franklin. It could be said to be a treasure among treasures.
“This painting would probably be priceless if auctioned. It would cost over 20 million dollars.” Katherine looked at the painting in front of her lovingly. “But I can’t accept such an expensive gift.”
“Madam, just accept it. In any case, it’s useless to me. It’s better to give it to someone who knows how to appreciate it. You can treat it as owing me a favor. If I need help in the future, you can help me out.” Audrey was indeed not interested in these paintings.
Katherine smiled when she heard Audrey’s words. “Audrey, what kind of favor is worth so much money? How about this? I do like this painting and I can owe you a favor. I don’t have anything else, but I have some rare treasures. Hold on.”
With that, Katherine went upstairs. After a while, she came down with a box made of gold cedarwood. “I got this by chance. It’s said to have health benefits, but I don’t think it’s of much use. It’s quite pretty. If you like it, take it. If you don’t, I’ll change it to something else.”
As Katherine spoke, she opened the gold cedarwood box. A ray of light appeared.
When Audrey saw what was in the box, her cold eyes gleamed slightly, as if she was surprised. It was Heaven’s Sapphire.
Audrey remembered that in her previous life, she had once seen what the Heaven’s Sapphire looked like in an old text. The gem in front of her was the same as the Heaven’s Sapphire depicted in the ancient text.
Audrey did not know how others felt, but she felt much better when she
got close to it.
It was recorded in the ancient text that Heaven’s Sapphire could cure hundreds of poisons and extend one’s lifespan. It was created naturally.
“Do you know what this is?” Audrey looked at Katherine.
The value of this piece of Heaven’s Sapphire was much more valuable than Franklin’s painting. If one were to say that Franklin’s painting was priceless, Heaven’s Sapphire was many times rarer.
In that case, Heaven’s Sapphire was the only one in the world. It was impossible to find.
Katherine thought Audrey didn’t like it and couldn’t help but say, “I know a little about it. Audrey, do you like it? If you don’t like it, I’ll give you something else.”
“No, this thing is too valuable.” Audrey shook her head and looked at Heaven’s Sapphire.
Katherine smiled. “Some things can’t be judged by monetary value. It’s good that you like it. Otherwise, Lwon’t accept the painting you gave me.”
Audrey was slightly stunned. Then, she chuckled. “Don’t regret it, Madam. Don’t ask for it back in the future.”
Audrey’s mischievous voice amused Katherine and she patted her hand lovingly.

Audrey patted Brian’s head and pushed him away slightly. “Don’t be naughty.”
“Got it.” Brian immediately stood obediently. When he saw the box in Audrey’s hand, he could not help but be curious. “Audrey, what is this?”
“This is Heaven’s Sapphire. I’ll let you wear it after I fix it,” Audrey said.
“I want to grow up faster so that I can protect you. No one can bully you anymore,” Brian said with a serious expression. After saying that, he felt a little disappointed. He was not in good health and could not undergo training like Lucas.
