Chapter 148 Tossed About in the Wind Brittany subconsciously believed that Jessica would inevitably marry Andrew-it was just a matter of time. Thus, in her mind, if Daniel lost the twenty million to Andrew, it would eventually end up back with Jessica anyway, and so it wasn't really a loss. Plus, if Daniel lost, he would becthe laughingstock of everyone. Not only would he dishonor himself, but he would also disgrace Jessica and The Matthews Organization. As soon as he lost, Brittany planned to exaggerate the situation to Jessica, escalate it, and thereby drive this country boy away from Jessica's side once and for all.

"Heh!" Then he jeered at Daniel in a disdainful voice. "Country boy, were you part of svillage acrobatics troupe before? That little magic trick isn't bad! But that sort of thing is only good for deceiving unworldly villagers, not New Yorkers. And you're trying to dupe Henry! Florida's top appraiser, Henry! Henry has seen the world; he won't spend twenty million on your Blood Jade just because you made it burn!" Turning to Henry, Andrew urged, "Henry, expose this country boy's little trick!" Henry hadn't paid attention to what Andrew was saying; instead, he was repeatedly shaking his head in amazement, muttering, "Impossible! This absolutely can't be!" Daniel extended his hand, still holding the burning Blood Jade, towards Henry. "Just looking with your eyes won't reveal much, Henry. If you want to truly understand the real quality of this Blood Jade, you'll need to feel it with your hands." "Yes! Yes! To really grasp the condition of this Blood Jade, I do need to touch it." Anxious, Henry stretched out his hand to take the Blood Jade that Daniel was offering.
"It's real! This is truly Ice and Fire Blood Jade! I'll buy it for twenty million! I'll pay you right now!" Chapter 148 Tossed About in the Wind Henry didn't want to delay a moment longer such a kind of Blood Jade was priceless! Even if he spent twenty million to acquire it, it would still be a profitable investment.
Everyone was shocked, staring at Henry in disbelief. Henry, however, didn't care about their stares and quickly paid the twenty million to acquire the ice and Fire Blood Jade. Once he had it in his possession, he treasured it like an excited child, "Continue with your game, Andrew, I must leave now, I need to properly examine this Ice and Fire Blood Jade!" exclaimed Henry, clutching the Jade tightly as he ran off. It was a treasure of inestimable value, and he needed to stash it away quickly before anyone could steal it.

Andrew's disbelief was palpable. The Henry he'd paid a million dollars to bring to the Jade Gambling just ran off like that? Andrew was dumbfounded! As he watched Henry's retreating figure, he stood there, frozen.
Daniel flaunted his phone screen in front of Andrew, showing a om transaction receipt for the twenty million, transferred by Henry,
"Andrew, Henry has bought my Blood Jade for twenty million. You've lost, and you owetwenty million now. Isn't it tto make good on your bet?"
