Chapter 771
The saleswoman before him exchanged a nce with the plump saleswoman who had sneered upon
Fane. They both took sharp intakes of breath.
"Sir, are-are you sure that you said 20 billion? Did I hear wrongly?"
The saleswoman gulped. She suspected that she was hallucinating.

"You didn’t hear wrong. Your boss is a businessman. I don’t care about how big your jewelry business
is, but businessmen are out to make money. I know that you won’t be able to make a decision as big as
this. So why don''t you call your superior and ask about it?"
Fane said after thinking about it.
"All right. I''ll talk to our manager!”
The saleswoman rushed into the office and called the manager out.
Yet the manager was not able to call the shots either. He smiled at Fane. “Sir, we don’t disy the
Heart of the Abyss outside. Instead, we keep it inside for safeguarding. I can''t make the final decision,
but you''re in luck. Our district manager who oversees for the Southwest district, so happens to be here.
Please follow me, sir. I''ll take you to see him."
"All right!”
Fane nodded his head.
He was quickly led into a tunnel by the manager. They wound their way in for a good few meters before
the manager opened a heavy steel door. They entered the room.
A beauty in her thirties was lying on the couch. It was evident she was tired, and she was closing her
eyes and resting.
"Manager Lowe, didn''t I tell you to not disturb me if there isn’t anything going on? We’ll be putting the
Heart of the Abyss on exhibition tomorrow. I''ve been meeting with the media, and I’m tired. I need a
good rest today!”
The middle-aged woman wore a crisp white shirt, and she radiated a powerful aura. After she said that,
she looked at Fane. "Why did you bring a man in?” she asked impatiently.
Fane ignored her. His attention was already pinned onto a ne inside a ss casing that stood in
the middle of the room. A jewel the color of dark blood was its crowning glory, and the other gemstones
sparkling in its circumference made it seem even more otherworldly. It was magnificent.
"So this is the Heart of the Abyss. It''s beautiful. No wonder it''s selling for such a high price!"
Hemented as he walked over and observed it.
"Hey! Who are you? Who told you that you could just waltz in here? Don''t you dare get close to the
Abyss!"
The beauty shot up to her feet and gave Fane a warning re. This was an extremely expensive item.
What if he was u p to no good?
"Manager Lynch, this customer wishes to buy the Heart of the Abyss. That''s why I brought him in!"
Store Manager Lowe exined to the district manager.
Fane also studied Manager Lynch. He could tell that she was no ordinary woman. Judging from her
eyes and her taut, yet rxed position, she was probably a good fighter.
"We''re not selling!”
Manager Lynch rxed a little after she heard that. "Manager Lowe, it’s not like you don’t know that
there''s only one of its kind i n the world. This is our crown jewel, and w e use it specially for publicity.
We''re just bringing it here for an exhibition. I may be the district manager of the Southwest, but even I
can''t do much. Besides, this item is not for sale!"
