Female Novel
Chapter 276 Sure to Win?
Maximilian’s words made Victoria blush. She gave him a stare, but meanwhile, anxiety watered down
the uprush of shyness inside her just now.
Victoria looked silently at Maximilian and didn’t stop him again. Instead, she decided that if something
happened, she would take the responsibility with him.
In an empty room beside the auction hall, a huge stone cutting machine was ready. Connor and Wyatt
were standing beside it, talking in whispers.
"Connor, are you going to just look at it? That Mr. Lee has bought the worst raw stone. He is sure to
lose."
Connor smiled and thought to himself. The one who was able to defeat the Young Master of the
Dragon Sect hadn’t been born yet.
"Do you believe in miracle, Wyatt?" Connor asked in a low voice.
"Miracle? I would only believe in luck at most, let alone miracles. Do you think that a miracle will
happen to Mr. Lee? You must be joking."
Wyatt was a sophisticated man and had experienced various bizarre incidents. But those bizarre
incidents had nothing to do with luck, and most of them were artificial.
Therefore, when Connor asked him if he believed in miracles, Wyatt didn’t believe them at all.
However, Wyatt couldn’t just spit it out for fear of hurting Connor’s feelings.
"Later, it will be the time to witness the miracle. Mr. Lee is not some ordinary man." Connor said with a
smile.
Wyatt said nothing. He thought to himself. If he wasn’t an ordinary man, could it be that he was a god?
But there was no god in this world. The so-called "god" or "master" were all frauds. Could it be that
Connor had been brainwashed and fooled by this young man?
Leon came with a bunch of people. They stood in front of Connor and Wyatt.
Leon didn’t set eyes on Connor. Since he had fallen out with him, he didn’t have to care about Connor’s
feelings.
Leon cupped his hand in the other before his chest and said loudly, "Mr. Owen , please bear witness to
this for us. You are an expert on jade identification, and I trust in your expertise. You won’t take sides."
Wyatt nodded. "I will definitely be fair, and I won’t distort the facts for the sake of Connor. Who wants to
cut his stone first?"
"Of course me. I will let that loser see how superior my raw stone is."
After that, Leon waved his hand. The staff moved the raw stone on the cart onto the stone cutting
machine.
When the stone cutter secured the raw stone, he started the machine to cut it.
Everyone kept their eyes fixed on that rumbling machine nervously. Since the protection cover was
shut, the situation inside was still unclear.
Before long, the machine finished cutting. Leon’s raw stone was cut straight down the middle.
The stone cutter put the raw stones apart, revealing its cross profile.
A green band greeted them. It was a raw stone with jadeite in it.
"My gosh, such a wide color band, and it’s totally contained in the raw stone. If one peels off the outer
shell along the edges, maybe a few jadeite pendants can be made out of it. The owner has made a
killing!"
"For waxy jade, its quality is quite decent, but it’s not icy jade. If it were, this cut raw stone could have
easily been sold at the price of tens of millions of yuan. But now, it can also be sold at the price of tens
of millions of yuan easily."novelbin
"Leon has it all. Not only has he won a great bargain, but he will also win the bet later. In my opinion,
we don’t have to cut the second raw stone anymore. That nobody can just kowtow to Leon and admit
defeat."
The onlookers commented and pointed to Maximilian.
Zakariya and the others stared scornfully at Maximilian, thinking that he must lose this time.
"Loser, you’re amazed, right? Have you ever seen such jadeite? Such a big piece of jadeite is a real
eye-opener to you. Be ready to kneel down and call Leon daddy."
"He should have called Leon daddy just now. Now he should kneel and call him granddad. This loser
actually dared to make a bet with Leon. How dare he?"
"Loser, put your stone on the machine now. When it’s cut open later, you will know the vast difference
between people. You need to learn to grovel in the future."
Wyatt shook his head. He glanced at the raw stone held by Maximilian, believing that he must lose this
time.
"Connor, you’ve seen that. These experts know raw stones very well. Now that this stone was cut
open, it has totally confirmed their speculations, while none of the experts is confident about the raw
stone held by Mr. Lee. They all believe that it’s just a pure stone."
Something flashed across Connor’s face. He nodded without saying a word.
There was no point saying anything at this moment. Connor just believed in Maximilian by instinct,
thinking that he wouldn’t lose.
Maximilian walked towards the stone cutting machine with the stone. Victoria covered her face with her
hands, not daring to see what was going to happen next.
Humphrey walked behind Victoria and said, "Victoria, Maximilian is certain to lose. Don’t be foolish in a
while. I will try my best to protect you. Do you hear me?"
"Don’t bother." Victoria said with disgust, "Are you behind all this? You don’t have to deny it. I knew it."
Humphrey remained silent for a moment before saying with his head lowered, "I did everything for your
good. I don’t want to see this loser drag you down. Leon should have some feelings for you. I will
protect you at the cost of all my connections. Please believe me."
"Well, Maximilian will protect me." A flicker of tenderness flashed across Victoria’s eyes.
Humphrey’s cheek twitched. "I will just see how a loser like him will protect you."
Maximilian had already put his raw stone on the stone cutting machine. When the stone cutter secured
the raw stone, he started the machine again.
The machine rumbled for a while, and everyone was smiling with disdain. They felt it unnecessary to
have Maximilian’s raw stone cut.
"What are we expecting? Those experts have said that it’s just a pure stone. Even if it’s cut open, it’s
still a stone. What a fool he is to compare his 100-yuan stone with Leon’s."
"Maybe he thinks that Luck Fairy is on his side. A loser always believes that fortune smiles on him. He
is a hopeless case, and can only be educated by reality."
"Let’s wait and see him call Leon granddad. He will have no way out but kneel and beg in a while."
Maximilian had been sentenced to death by the onlookers. Everyone believed he was sure to lose.
Leon raised his head complacently, as if he was bound to win.
"Loser, you’re at death’s door. I’ve prepared the knife for you, rookie."
Teddy took out a silver white metal box and opened it in front of everyone, exposing a dagger.
The dagger had a fuller on its blade, as well as a jagged spine. It gave a cold gleam, as if it was telling
people that it was made for killing.
Leon’s fingers brushed against the blade. He said with a smile, "Loser, you’re blessed to stab yourself
with this knife."
"Is this Shura Sword?"
