The blade came down and the first stone was cut open, but there was nothing. The inside was pale, dry, and dead, there was no green glow, no rich line, no wet shine, nothing that could make anyone’s eyes brighten. It was exactly the kind of useless stone the crowd had expected it to be.At once, the mocking started again.“I said it already, this boy knows nothing.”“He really used 6,000 bucks to buy rubbish.”“This is what happens when a fool tries to play in jade street.”Different voices rose one after another, some laughing, some shaking their heads, some already looking at Kael like he had just thrown money into a drain, but Kael’s expression did not change much, he only looked at the stone calmly, then nodded once as if he had accepted the result.The cutting man also shook his head.“There is nothing in it,” he said. “It’s a waste now.”He was about to push the cut piece aside when his eyes suddenly narrowed, then his hand stopped.“Wait.”His voice changed immediately, the cro

Gasp! The whole street was shocked again. “Ten million?” “He really pushed Miss Rothmere up to ten million bucks?” “This boy…” The crowd looked at Kael with new eyes now. Before, they had thought he was only lucky. But now, seeing how he had stood there and forced Seraphine Rothmere herself to raise the price, many people finally began to understand that this young man was not simple at all. He bought the stones for 6000 bucks and had made over one thousand folds. Kael himself was a little stunned too when he heard the final price settle at 10 million bucks. Even though he had forced the number up calmly, hearing it accepted just like that still made something move inside him, because no matter how steady he looked on the outside, ten million bucks was not some small amount a person could hear and just brush aside. At that moment, a thought entered his head. “Who exactly are the Rothmeres?” He looked at Seraphine again, then at the two men standing behind her, then at the May

“I'm sorry dad, I didn't take his contact.” Seraphine responded. “But I gave him my card. If he discovers any valuable jade again, he will contact me.”Meanwhile, Kael had already returned home, the moment he stepped inside, he removed his jacket and sat down calmly on the sofa. Although his expression remained composed, there was still a faint trace of satisfaction in his eyes. After all, he had just earned 10 million bucks in a single morning with almost no effort.He leaned back slightly, thinking quietly.“Well… I now have enough liquid cash to start doing something meaningful,” Kael murmured softly.“Instead of letting the money sit idle, maybe I should try my luck more in the jade market, even if it is only occasionally, it could still become another source of income.”Just then, another matter surfaced in his mind, Celeste. Her tired face from the previous night appeared clearly in his thoughts, along with the words she had said about being forced out of her position.Kael’s ex

That night was finally the night of the long awaited Freshers Party of Valaris Academy. Inside his room, Kael Danaru stood in front of the mirror quietly, he was dressed in the expensive suit he had bought earlier from the store, the Aiden & Cole, the $5,000 bucks suit set that fit his body perfectly. That evening, his beautiful suit rested smoothly on his shoulders, giving him a clean and confident look and looking so handsome.“Looks alright,” he muttered softly as he took a look at himself in the mirror. Right after that, he picked up his phone from the table, slipped it into his pocket, then turned and walked out of the room without hesitation.At that same time, in a private dressing room, a young man was seated on a chair quietly while two assistants stood beside him, helping him adjust his clothes carefully. One of them straightened the sleeve of his suit, while the other carefully fixed the collar to make sure everything looked perfect, from his clothing to his footwear, acce

“Do you know why I’m saying this?” He did not wait for anyone to respond. “Because some time ago, I went to a clothing store to buy some clothes. Unfortunately, I saw this same guy there.” He shook his head as if remembering something unpleasant. “This guy was picking up clothes he clearly could not afford. I was even worried he might try to trick the attendants or do something dishonest.” Some people looked at Kael again, their expressions changing slightly as he explained everything to even talking of how Kael couldn't pay and was kicked out. Right after he was done talking, he gave a small mocking smile. “So now seeing him wearing such a nice suit today, I’m quite sure he either borrowed it… or found some other way to get it.” Soft laughter spread among some people and a few students began whispering quietly to one another as curiosity grew. At that moment, Victor Hale gave a faint sneer. “This guy really can never do something right for once,” He said in a low voice, clear
