Chapter1467FateAndJade


    Adam trembled slightly upon hearing Abel’s warning, as he was secretly afraid of the person. he was


    speaking to on the phone. After all, Abel had always defeated him in countless fights since they were


    young.


    “Alright, I’ll be waiting for you. We need to discuss this anyway,” Adam conceded, although he didn’t


    believe that this was the way things should end.


    You belong with us, Abel, not with Merrell Louise! It’s us roho you should be serving. Zahn and I


    deserve that much more than Emmeline does.


    Later, Adam took a beautiful photo album out of a Carter box and ced one of the wedding photos


    into his luggage.


    Meanwhile, Abel lit a cigarette and resumed driving in the traffic.


    At 1:05 p.m., Brandon’s flight arrived at the airport. At the same time, Abel dialed the number given by


    Emmeline and someone answered the call. “Hello, this is Brandon speaking from Havencrest


    International.”


    “Hello, this is Abel…”


    Five minutester, Brandon emerged from the crowd with confidence, and Abel immediately


    recognized him. While Abel also exuded a strong masculine aura, Brandon was able to recognize him


    at first sight as well. The two men shook hands and greeted each other with a smile, sharing a mutual


    sense of understanding and familiarity.


    At five o’clock in the evening, Brandon arrived at Haway Hotel, which was located in a developing


    area. As soon as Emmeline saw him, she ran towards him and gave him a big hug.


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    “You’re still like a child, aren’t you?” Brandon smiled and patted Emmeline’s back.


    “To you, we’ll always be children. You’re our master, after all, Emmeline smiled back.


    “s! You know what? I really regret taking in the twelve of you as my disciples.” Brandon added, “Why


    do I feel like I’m an old man with gray hair?”


    The staff around himughed in amusement when they heard his words. Due to Brandon’s friendly and


    approachable nature, everyone found him pleasant to be around.


    “So, what do you think about my master, Abel? Isn’t he decent and remarkable?” Emmeline. held


    Abel’s hand and proudly asked.


    “Of course he is!” Abel caressed Emmeline’s head. “I can never hope to match him in that regard.”


    “Give me a break, man.” Brandonughed and added, “Give the rest of us a chance to date, would


    you? You’d be doing all other men a huge favor.”


    As everyone burst intoughter again, the two men’s humorous interaction made them shine.


    By the time the decoration was finished, it was already 8 p.m., just when Vernon and Audrey arrived to


    join the rest of them for dinner. Since there were over twenty people in the group. the dinner was held


    in arge private lounge with two tables. Sitting in the private lounge, Vernon and his wife were greeted


    by Brandon, Dn, Abel, and Emmeline.


    To celebrate Brandon’s return, Vernon brought a limited–edition Whiskey that was used in the military.


    However, Brandon had an early morning ss the next day, so he only took a few sips of it.


    Meanwhile, Dn didn’t dare to touch the bottle at all, thinking it would be inappropriate to drink before


    the president.


    “Don’t refuse, Abel. Because if you do, I’m going to go without alcohol tonight. Vernon turned to Abel.


    “Alright then, I guess it wouldn’t hurt to have a little sip.” Abel smiled, holding the whiskey bottle and


    pouring some into his ss.


    On the other hand, Emmeline’s gaze fell on the emerald bracelet on her wrist. Intrigued, she looked at


    Abel and asked, “Master said this bracelet cost a fortune, and Mr. Chester’s friend. who works in the


    jewelry industry also said the same thing. What’s the story behind this bracelet?”


    “Why are you bringing this up again, girl?” Abel furrowed his eyebrows and asked softly.


    “So, is there a story behind this bracelet?” Emmeline grew even more curious.


    “A story?” Abel rubbed her head. “It wasn’t easy toe by. That’s all.”


    “Can you tell us the story?” Emmeline said, “We’re all curious about it.”


    “Yeah, tell us about it.” Vernon added, “Emma said you bought this jade for 9,700. Is that true?”


    Before Abel could speak, Brandon chimed in. “9,700 is the minimuna it could possibly be.”


    “That’s right,” Emmeline said, “Danny Timbeke from Valoria Jewelry once mentioned that it would


    cost 200 times more than 9,700”


    Dn interrupted and said, “Mr. Wyatt’s father is an expert when ites to jade and gemstones. With


    his knowledge in that area, I doubt he could be wrong about it.”


    “No wonder…” Emmeline said, “Master asked me that question when we first met.”


    “There is no way this jade would be priced at 9,700. Anyone who thinks that ispletely ridiculous.


    This thing is not an antique. It’s not something that one can buy with a few hundred. Brandon replied.


    “You’re indeed knowledgeable, Mr. Wyatt. Abel smiled.


    ssy jadeite is an extremely rare type of jade. Brandon continued. “It’s considered to be very


    valuable and even priceless by some, but I guess it was fate that brought it together with its current


    owner now.”


    Emmeline’s gaze fell on Abel’s face, wondering how he was able to obtain the jade.
