Chapter 377 Truffle Hunter


    Kelly''s face darkened with displeasure when she saw how the tables had turned.


    “Mr. Leo, thank you for the gown and jewelry you gave me. Many guests praised me for them.” Mnie said, raising her voice


    deliberately.


    Leo smiled, and waved his hand. “You''re the one who entuated their beauty. It’s a mesmerizing scene to


    see stunning jewelry worn by a true beauty!”


    “Jewelry pieces have collection value. I''ll return this set to you after tonight, Mr. York. Since you bid for and purchased it from an


    auction, I’m sure you like it very much. You should be the one keeping it,” Mnie said.


    “Huh? Why would | take back a gift that I’ve given?” Leo said, waving his hands profusely.


    “Alright, then,” Mnie went on with a smile. “I won’t put you on the spot then, Mr. York. Why don’t we make a promise to


    cooperate on the two Unraveling Enigmas perfumes? If the results aren’t ster, I’ll dly return you this jewelry, okay?”


    “You have a deal.”


    Leo’s eyes shone as Mnie reached out her hand. Both of them shook hands as a sign of their agreement.


    Apuse and congrattory greetings surrounded them.


    Mnie shot them all a smile as she turned around, and said, “I’m a little hungry after all that. I''ll go grab


    some food.”


    The crowd started to disperse, but Kelly was still boiling with anger. She refused to leave the scene. Wouldn''t leaving with her tail


    between her legs be implicitly conceding defeat?


    Kelly decided to take that te she put down earlier, and deliberately stood by Mnie’s side while taking


    some food.


    Mnie’s brows furrowed out of surprise over the stubbornness and resilience of the Murray heiress.


    She put down her cutlery, and looked at Kelly’s te.


    “The texture of wagyu beef is great, but you shouldn’t deny the nutritional value and.deliciousness of other cuts of beef just


    because of that. What''s more, the truffle on your te is termed as the ck diamond of the nt kingdom. Ms. Murray, | see


    you''ve taken quite a bit of that. Seems like you enjoy eating expensive things. Do you think that only high-end things are worthy


    of your attention?”


    “What else? Should | degrade myself and think that | am worthy of only cheap things?” Kelly had no choice but


    to grit her teeth and rebut Mnie.


    “| wonder if you consider sows high-end?” Mnie asked.N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    “Of course not!” Kelly looked disgusted.


    “Do you know how truffle hunters find truffles? They rely on little sows in rut who can urately locate where truffles are.”


    Mnie added confidently, “What you consider cheap is actually something that can help you

    “Is what you said true?!” Kelly was utterly embarrassed, and decided to go all out in refuting Mnie’s ims.


    “Do you not believe me, Ms. Murray?”


    Mnie sneered, no longer bothering to hide her disdain. “The reason why sows in rut are able to find truffles is because of the


    effects of androstenone. Go back and read up on the specifics. | don’t want to waste my


    time exining it to you.”


    Kelly was utterly disgraced. Despite that, she refused to admit defeat and wanted to step forward and argue further with Mnie.


    Just then, someone pulled her back and whispered into her ear, “What she said is true. Say more, and you''ll risk embarrassing


    yourself further.”


    That was when Kelly finally gave up and left. With everyst one of them gone, Mnie took her te and left.


    She was enjoying her food, when I walked over and said, “Mnie, you looked brilliant saying what you


    said to Kelly!”


    “She started it first,” Mnie said indifferently.


    “She wanted to marry Leo and was rejectedst year. She’s just trying to vent her anger on you,” I


    exined.


    “I see.”


    Mnie nodded in acknowledgement. She was still wondering when she had offended the Murray heiress.


    While I stood on her side just now and was acting all naive and innocent right now, Mnie knew her true colors, and treated


    her courteously but without sincerity.


    “How beautifull”


    I had no idea what was going through Mnie’s mind, and continued prattling on while surveying Mnie’s gown.


    “Mr. York has such a good eye for clothes! Men, be they straight men or yboys, usually only dare to give clothes in ck,


    white or red colors. But he gave you a dark green gown! You, a fair—-faced beauty!”


    “But I’m sure Mr. York must have secretly taken note of your measurements. The gown is very fitting!” I suddenly smiled


    cheekily amidst her praises. “He really likes you!”


    “Given the environment he grew up in, he has seen many women in his lifetime. I’m sure it’s easy for him to tell at a nce,”


    Mnie said, not wanting I to continue pairing them together.


    “But Mr. York has never had a partner before,” I rebutted.


    Mnie blinked. That was true. Leo had remained single all his life.
