Chapter 767


    Selena gave a bitter smile. "Ma, Fane already told me about this," she said." Actually, I''ve been fired as


    well. No—I quit. I didn''t want to do it anymore!”


    "What!"


    The smile on Fiona''s face immediately froze. “Fane had been fired forshing against Young Master


    Drake, and he hadshed out because of the ten billion bucks i n the first ce," she said, stupefied.


    "This i spletely understandable, but why did you quit? This is an entirely different matter."

    Selena flicked her gaze between Fane and Fiona. "It''s nothing. I just don''t want to continue doing that


    job any longer," she lied, fearing that her mother would fret for


    her. "It’s pointless to me. More importantly, my subordinates don’t cooperate with me, and they even


    talk about me behind my back!"


    "You’re out of your mind, Selena. Fane doesn’t have a job now, and neither do you. Plus, your sry


    was so high!"


    Andrew shook his head and took a sip of wine. "But it doesn''t matter now. You’ve already quit, so now


    we’ll just have to be wise with the money we have. It should be enough."


    "You''re right, Dad," Ben chipped in, grinning. "We only need enough money to live on. We can''t be like


    Ma, who only has eyes for money. We should always be satisfied with whatever we have!"


    "What are you saying, you brat? What sane person would give up their chances of getting more


    money? Why shouldn''t we want more, knowing that we could have more?"


    Fiona red at her son. "Besides, ten billion isn’t a lot either. It all depends on how you spend it. I


    heard that a jeweler in Middle Province has recently crafted an extremely expensive ne. It''s


    entirelyid with diamonds, and more importantly, it''s one of its kind in the entire world.


    There’s also a huge ruby as its main jewel. It''s absolutely gorgeous! It''s called ''Heart of the Abyss'', or


    something like that anyway!''


    "Really? It’s just a ne though. No way that it''s worth more than a hundred million!"


    Ben smiled and spoke nonchntly. He raised his ss of wine and took a sip from it. "The taste of this


    red wine is splendid, and it cost over twenty thousand bucks. This is a luxury to me already!" "You’re so


    narrow-minded. They say that that ne is worth more than 900 million bucks—almost up to a


    billion!"


    Fiona continued, "There’s only one of its kind in the world. But more importantly, this ne is the


    jeweler''s true treasure. They don''t have any intentions of selling it off. They''re just putting it on


    exhibition at a critical moment!"


    "Pfft!"


    Ben spat some of his wine out. "What the f* ck. That’s way too expensive!"


    "What are you saying? Of course, the ne is expensive!"


    Fiona rolled her eyes at him. "If only I could afford something like that!"


    Fane was surprised as well when he heard that. He took a sip of wine. "Such an expensive ne


    would definitely look good on Selena. Ruby...I remember that you like red!"


    Selena shed a bitter smile. "What use is there to like it? No way I can wear something like that.


    Besides, they won''t sell it even if we want to buy it!"
