Chapter 1971
ine had two sets of standards for measuring the value of items.
The first set was how much money this item could be exchanged for.
The second set was how much face she could gain through this item.
In her eyes, everything in this world, all-inclusive, ultimately came down to money and face in the
final analysis.
For instance, when Charlie gave her the set of top-notch caviar skincare products, which was
bought at a purchase price of nearly four hundred thousand dors, she knew that it could be resold
for at least three hundred thousand dors. So, ine could clearly feel the weight and value of the
three hundred thousand dors. This was in line with her first set of standards because it was
valuable!
Another example was the Hermes bag that was worth a few hundred thousand dors. ine would
not only be able to resell the bag for one hundred thousand dors, but she could envy and hatred
of others. ine could feel the weight and value of the bag that was worth a few hundred thousand
dors and also gain a lot of face from carrying it at the same time. This was in line with her second
set of standards - face value.
At this time, ine looked at the blue and white porcin vase as she thought to herself with ack
of interest, ''If this item could not be exchanged for money and if I cannot bring it out of the house to
show it off to others, then how valuable could it be? This blue and white elephant ears porcin
vase looks like it is very valuable indeed, but I cannot sell it off, and I cannot bring it out to show off
to anyone at all. So, in my eyes, this item is nothing but a worthless piece of garbage.'' s
''Unless... I secretly bring it out and sell it someday; I could probably sell it for a few hundred
thousand dors.'' 1
However, ine quickly changed her mind again as she thought, ''No, I cannot do that! Charlie
already gave this set of antiques to Jacob. It does not matter if Jacob gets angry if I secretly sold it
off, but it will be very difficult for me to handle Charlie if he gets angry.’ 2
As she thought about this, ine could only give up having any ideas about the pair of blue and
white elephant ears porcin vase with a dragon pattern on it. 2
At this time, Albert continued reading the gift list. 1
Graham gave an emerald gemstone worth fifty million dors, and Zeke also gave a pink diamond
of a simr value.
Both of them were rtively simr, and they also shared a very good rtionship. During thest
auto show, the two men coincidentally gave Charlie two super sportscars. So, this time, they
discussed it in advance, and they decided to give him a set of valuable gemstones instead.
Although both the gemstones were of simr values, they were of different varieties. So, Graham
and Zeke did not need to worry about shing over giving the same gift.
At this time, Aurora and Kevin were both holding a gift box in their hands as they disyed the
respective gemstones ced inside them. 1
The green and pink gemstones reflected colorful colors under the light, and their appearance was
really extraordinarily perfect.
ine was so interested in these two gemstones that her eyeballs were about to pop out. She could
not help but think of the jade bracelet that Graham had given t o Charlie before.
That bracelet was worth several millions of dors. Charlie gave it to ire, but ine stole it and
wore it herself. After wearing it, she treated it as her own, but i t identally broke it when she was
set up by Hannah thest time. This had always been a pain and regret in ine''s heart that she
did not want to be reminded of. Moreover, ine did not have any jewelry of her own that she could
use to show off anymore. 5
Therefore, when sheid her eyes on these two gemstones, she suddenly felt very tempted. She
wished that she could make a ne with those two gemstones so that she could wear it on her
neck and go out to parade herself ostentatiously and show off. 5

However, ine only dared to think about it. If Charlie did not say that he would give it to her, she
would never dare to steal it.
After the gemstones were disyed, Albert continued reading, "Mr. Travis Lane is giving Master
Wade an EC145 helicopter produced by a European helicopterpany!" 1
As soon as these words came out, the audience were all deeply shocked!
