Chapter 176: You’re Despicable
The crowd ran over from the bleachers and surrounded the stone opener.
The stone opener was busy taking out the cut raw stone and kept wiping the
cut surface with his sleeve, as if he couldn’t believe it, he looked at it again and again, and then finally,
still in disbelief, he raised his head to look at ire, “Oh my God, it’s really a ruby.”
Joseph shivered with disbelief as he pushed the man in front of him out of the way, took a few steps up
and reached out to snatch the stone from the stone opener.
The material inside was in pure red, in the light, it was shimmering. It was indeed ruby!
Although it was small, it was the size of a quail egg and just such a small piece was enough to sell for a
sky–high price!
The stone opener was thrilled, “I have been doing this my whole life and it’s the first time I’ve cut open
a ruby! I can brag about it my whole life now!”
Zayn was even more excited that he eximed excitedly, “Ruby! It’s actually ruby!”
Julia rushed over and hugged ire, kissing her on the cheek and saying, “ire, you are amazing! I
will ask for a crown carved and embed the ruby in it! You will be the Queen of raw gemstone
appraising!”
ire was happy, but not quite as over the top as they were.
She gently pushed Julia out of the way and made her way towards Joseph, “Mr. Felix, how long are
you going to hold my ruby?”

“No way… no way…”
Joseph kept shaking his head. Even if the ruby was right in front of his eyes, he couldn’t believe that
ire could get it! It was the best of the best kind!
This one had no impurities and was pure and intense in color.
His orange jadeite was nothingpared to ruby.
ire saw him lost in his own thoughts and raised her voice, “Mr. Felix, are you not going to give me
back my ruby?”
Joseph then snapped back to his senses, he looked at ire with hatred in his eyes, “ire! You’re
despicable!”
“Oh?” ireughed instead of being angry, “How am I despicable?”
Joseph clutched the ruby tightly in his arms with one hand while pointing his other hand at ire in
annoyance, “How could anyone sell raw stones with ruby Not to mention the Jewelry Chamber of
Commerce, the whole raw stone mar won’t put it for sale! No one’s that stupid!”
Yes, but the game was right about luck and vision.
If there was a mine producing rubies, how could anyone sell the stones there, risking their rubies
getting into someone else’s hands?
To put it bluntly, the price of raw stones was not high, how could anyone be so stupid as to sell the
stones potentially with ruby inside for the stone gamblers at low prices? Raw stones were cheap and it
was simply a losing deal.

“Mr. Felix, are you saying that I’ve had this raw ruby ready before I came here?”
“Right!” Joseph was outraged, “You are so young, yet you are so scheming!”
“Joseph, how could you nder someone without any evidence?”
Kira stood beside ire, “This raw stone was given to ire by an old man for free, I saw it with my
own eyes. I was going to grab it from her but the old man just wouldn’t sell it to me.”
Josephughed in anger, looking terrifying, “You got it for free? Do you think that old man was stupid?
Or do you think I am stupid and that I would believe you?”
Kira took an exasperated step forward, “You…”
“Kira, don’t you say another word. I know ire is sent by you, you really expect I would buy you
Summers‘ schemes?”
Kira was stunned for a moment, after the banquet the other day, both the Summers and the Vanderbilts
sent men to block the news. The guests shouldn’t say anything for fear of the Vanderbilts, did anyone
slip his tongue?
Just as Kira was thinking, Pa came over, looked at ire and said kindly, ” ire, congrattions,
you got the best stone today. My father was not wrong about you.”
What…
Seeing the look on Kira’s face and hearing what Pa said, anyone in the room would think ire was
from the Summers family.

It was true that ire was a Summers family member, but things were much moreplicated than
that.
Now ire just couldn’t exin it even if she wanted to.
She looked at Pa with a sneer, it had to be said that Pa was the
smartest person in the whole Summers family!
By making Joseph think she was in cahoots with the Summers, she was forcing her to join forces with
the Summers family.
But she wouldn’t let her n seed.
“ire’s with the Vanderbilt family, not the Summers family.”
Sean walked over with one hand in his pocket, his other arm wrapped around
ire’s shoulder in a domineering and protective manner.
ire inclined her head and looked at the side of his face, her lips curving
up in delight.
She loved it when he looked protective of her.
Although Sean didn’t say a word before and just sat on the bleachers like an outsider and watched
everything, he was just waiting to make an entrance.
“Sir.”
ire called him sweetly.
Sean turned his head to look at her, “Hmm?”

ire crooked her finger at him and he lowered his head down.

ire crooked her finger at him and he lowered his head down.
He thought ire had something to whisper to him, but ire stood up on her tiptoes and kissed him
on the cheek with her tender lips.
Everyone present was out of words.
What were they doing at this intense moment?
Did they want everyone to know they were together in this way?
Joseph’s face turned livid and he suddenly sneered, “I didn’t know that the Vanderbilt family and
Summers family have already joined forces.”
Sean looked at ire and chuckled, he had never been in love before, and whenever he saw a young
couple kissing on the street, he despised them. However, what ire did just now made him really
pleasant.
He loved the way she expressed her feelings for him even in public.

Hearing Joseph’s words, he frowned and looked at him, saying with sarcasm, “The Vanderbilts never
need any ally to crush any enemy.”
Everyone present was stunned. Did he mean he could easily crush Joseph?
