“Alright. I don’t have the energy to argue with you. Let me show you some real evidence.” Ethan was tired of arguing with the woman, knowing in forever. “Wait a moment.”
I would go on
With that, he hurried back to his house next door and rummaged through the burlap bag he had brought to find a genuine bloodstone the size of half a palm. “Here. Take a look at what real bloodstone looks like,”
bue. The veins were visible down to the finest detail,
As soon as he presented the piece of bloodstone, the light in the room was subtly tinted with a faint crimson ba and the overall flow of the veins appeared incredibly natural,
Even an untrained eye could immediately tell this was exceptional compared to the other two pieces.
At that moment,
everyone in the room was stunned and silent.
Even the sales manager who had delivered the gemstone couldn’t help but feel that the gemstone she brought might have been fake. But her rational mind reminded her that the company couldn’t possibly sell counterfeit goods. Perhaps the bloodstone Ethan brought was just of a better quality.
“Alesia, how about this? if you’re still unsure, we can invite an appraiser to authenticate it on the spot.
“That’s fine, but I’d like to invite Mr. Newman. Are you okay with that?” Alexia replied,
“I’m fine with it, but Mr. Newman’s fees aren’t cheap, are they?
Xavier Newman was one of the top appraisers in silverbank City. Whether it was antiques, paintings, or jewelry, there was nothing he couldn’t authenticate. He was the authority in this field.
Even the chief appraiser from Gems Galore was his apprentice. It was clear that inviting him to authenticate the gemstones would come at a hefty price.
“It’s simple. If the bloodstones you provided are real, I’ll cover all the costs. But if they tum out to be fake, Gems Galore will be responsible for the costs and will need to give me a satisfactory explanation”
After seeing the gemstone Ethan had brought, Jayce and Alexia were completely convinced by his words. That was why they suggested calling in Shawn for authentication
“I’m not in a position to make that decision: I need to consult our manager,” said the sales manager.
“Do ahead and ask then.”
The woman left nervously, and within a few minutes, she hurried back. “My manager has agreed to it Alexia. You can invite Shawn now.”
She had received approval from the relevant person in charge. If the gemstones were proven to be authentic, they could turn the situation around and cause trouble for the Bennett family. They might even use this to get the Bennett family to spend more, benetining the company.
It all came down to their high confidence in the quality of their goods.
Soon, with Jayce’s personal call, an elderly m man with graying hair arrived at the Bermett residence, accompanied by others.
In the appraiser’s Eine of work, people would either bring items to him or he would go to them, as long as the payment was secuted.
He charged a 1% fee for each appraisal according to his usual rules. Given that the bloodstone was worth a million dollars, his tee for this visit would be a hundred thousand dollars, which was well worth his time
“Sorry to make you come out so late. Mr. Newman.”
“It’s no trouble at all. I just finished dinner, and it’s perfect timing for me to come out and stretch my legs.”
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, be immediately looked at the threr bloodstones on the table.
