Chapter 115


    Chapter 115 Eight Hundred Million


    Osborne had grown ustomed to Wesley’s frequent blood–spitting,


    He said coolly to Ophelia, “He must be suffering from some sort of illness. You’d better take him to


    see a good doctor. Otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll be a widow before long.”


    Ophelia’s face darkened, but she didn’t argue.


    Inside, she felt a pang of disappointment. Wesley, as the heir to the Ashford family, should have


    shown more resilience. At a time like this, he should be holding it together, no matter how tough


    things got.


    Byparison, Osborne had a much stronger constitution


    In the three years he spent with the Caldwell family, he endured humiliation, torture, and pressures


    that most people couldn’t even imagine. Even she thought Osborne was a bit of a pushover, but he


    neverined or faltered.


    Thinking about this, Ophelia felt a moment of distraction.


    She took a deep breath and turned to Austin. “Ms. Montague, hello I’m Ophelia, the heir to the


    Caldwell family. We’re in the business of jewelry design and sales. We’d like to buy some of these


    high–quality diamonds from you at a price 10% above market value. What do you think?”


    Ophelia looked at Austin with hopeful eyes


    She was under immense pressure.


    The Caldwell Group’s rival, Luna Jewelry, had gained ess to a substantial amount of top–grade


    diamonds thanks to Osborne. With Alison’s handling, Luna Jewelry had quickly made a name for


    itself, squeezing the Caldwell Group’s presence in the high–end jewelry market


    Many of the Caldwell Group’s high–end clients had recently turned to Luna Jewelry for their custom


    orders.


    The Wise Order of the Caldwell family had harshly criticized Ophelia for the situation, demanding


    she find a way to turn things around. quickly

    To do that, she needed a significant supply of top–grade diamonds, which were limited.


    Although the Ashford familyad provided some support, it was far from sufficient. She had to


    figure out a solution on her own. Now, seeing Austin cut out arge quantity of high–quality


    diamonds, Ophelia was eager to buy a portion, even at a premium. She believed this was a


    reasonable request


    “Ms. Montague, what do you say? If you think the price isn’t right, we can negotiate further.”


    Austin gave her a dismissive nce. Tm definitely nning to sell these diamonds, but I can’t


    decide who buys them. You’ll need to talk to Osborne about that. If he agrees to sell to you, then


    fine by me.”


    Ophelia was taken aback


    She thought, “I need Osborne’s approval?


    Isn’t he just a sycophant hanging on Austin’s coattails? He’s only good at picking uncut diamonds,


    how can he decide who gets to buy the diamonds?”


    Her brows furrowed as she considered asking Osborne to sell the diamonds to her


    Chapter 115 Eight Hundred Milion


    It was a difficult pill to swallow, but given the criticism from the Wise Order and the current situation


    of the Caldwell Group, she had to push through her difort.


    “Osborne, 1…”


    Before Ophelia could finish her sentence, Osborne interrupted with a wave of his hand, “Ophelia,


    don’t even bother. I won’t be selling any diamonds to you.


    “If you need diamonds, try asking Wesley”


    With that, Osborne turned to contact Alison, instructing her toe and take over.


    There was no way he’d sell these diamonds to Ophelia.


    He hadn’t forgotten what she’d done to him.


    Besides, Luna Jewelry was hispany.


    Osborne was looking forward to the day Luna Jewelry would surpass the Caldwell Group and relish


    the sight of Ophelia’s and the Caldwell family’s dismay.


    So, even though these diamonds weren’t as top–notch as the previous batch and mostly just high–


    quality, they were still going to Luna Jewelry.


    Soon enough, Alison arrived with her team.


    Watching the scene unfold, Ophelia bit her lip, her face a storm of anger and envy as she red at


    Alison.


    Unfortunately, no one cared about her feelings.


    “Ms. Montague, Mr. Radcliffe, the appraisals for all the diamonds areplete. The totales to


    960 million dors. I can round it up to a nice round number–one billion. What do you think?”


    Austin and Barlyn’s faces lit up with surprise.


    This figure was considerably higher than their own estimate. How could they not be pleased?


    Yet, they remained silent and looked at Osborne.


    Alison also turned to Osborne and said, “Boss, what do you think of this price? If we handle the


    deal well, we could still make quite a profit!”


    Osborne smiled, “Agreed.”


    Austin, however, was taken aback “Boss? Osborne, you’re the owner of Luna Jewelry? Why didn’t


    you mention it earlier? Since it’s your ownpany, the price shouldn’t be this high! I think 500


    million is more than enough


    “Right, Barlyn?”


    Barlyn nodded in agreement. “Exactly! 500 million is more than fair. If it weren’t for Osborne


    bringing us into this, these diamonds wouldn’t have had anything to do with us.”


    Osborne shook his head. “It’s not the same. We had an agreement, and these diamonds would


    fetch at least 800 to 900 million anywhere else.”


    “That’s not the point!”


    The group huddled together, debating the price. Eventually, theypromised at 800 millio


    Luna Jewelry would still make a substantial profit, and Barlyn and Austin would not lose out much
