    A Cue for Love Chapter 461


    This Is Supposed To Be Hers


    After that, Yandel went to see to it that Natalie’s order was carried out.


    He and Thomas ced their respective orders for about ten pieces of jade stones each.


    The seller weighed the items and named the price. Yandel readily took out about a few million and


    made his payment, but as for Thomas, his expression betrayed his reluctance. What a waste of money.


    It will all go to the drain if there’s no jade at all.


    I’d rather buy a handbag than stones that do not even promise any returns.


    Thomas thought the whole thing was purely a gamble of fate, but he could not go back on his word


    since that would be too shameful for him. Besides, Yeva was constantly sweet-talking to him, so he had


    no other choice but to proceed with the n.


    Now that they made the payment, the final step would be to reveal the results.


    “Mr. Nichols,” Natalie said, “there is only one machine to carve out the stone. What about I go first?”


    “Why not?” Thomas replied, so Natalie went ahead and picked one stone and asked two of the workers


    to carry it over.

    First, they ran some water over the raw stone to bring down its temperature. Then, they used a sharp


    and spinning handsaw de to cut through it.


    Everyone awaited the oue anxiously as the workers set to work. Usually, the chances of having


    jade in raw stones were rare.


    About ten years ago, Natalie saved an ouw’s wife.


    In return for her kindness, he taught her all the tricks he knew about stone-gambling. That was how


    Natalie came to know about this craft and the ways to go about swaying luck to her side.


    Within a few minutes, Natalie’s stones were all processed, but to her dismay, her endeavor was


    fruitless.


    Eight out of them turned out to be just regr stones, while the other three were small yellow jades.


    Their colors did not look promising and could only be sold for about tens of thousands in the market.


    Yandel spent millions on the pile, but only wed back tens of thousands of returns. They were running


    a huge loss.


    Yandel was startled when he found out about the result. He had no idea what Natalie was trying to do


    since given her capability, there was no way she would make such a ring mistake.


    Natalie looked over at him andined, “What are you looking at? I thought you said you’d do


    anything to make me happy just now? Don’t tell me you’re regretting spending the money now. I’m


    buying more! I just don’t believe I can’t have luck on my side today.”


    Yandel was not in the position to stop her.


    “Sure. Go ahead.”


    Natalie looked at him with confidence. “Just you wait and see. I will make sure I bring some real good


    jade home today,” she promised, patting his shoulder.


    When Thomas saw that Yandel had made a fool out of himself when he lost the best, he came over


    and talked smugly. “It seems like your lover is running low on luck today. I hope things get better for


    both of you in theter round.”


    What an *sshole. Yandel cursed at the old man in his heart, but for courtesy’s sake, he still smiled at


    him. “Thanks, I hope so.”


    After Yandel’s stones were all checked, it was time to move on to Thomas and Yeva’s stones.


    Since this was Yeva’s first stone-gambling experience, she was so nervous she held on to Thomas’


    hand.


    Likewise, the man was equally fidgety. He was afraid that things would turn out just like what happened


    to Yandel. If that happened, it meant that he had invested a fortune in some trash.


    The first six jade stones were disappointing.


    Four of them were just regr stones, and the other two were studded with yellow jade. Even so, the


    color was worse than Natalie’s, and could only be sold for a negligible amount of money.


    When Thomas and Yeva saw the workers hauling the seventh stone over to the machine, they prayed


    earnestly in their hearts that there would be jade in it.


    They held their breath as the workers cut through the crust of the stone. When they saw what they had


    been waiting for so far, the seller looked up, crying out, “There is jade in this one!”


    A streak of bell rings followed immediately.


    When Yeva heard the bells, the was so excited she shrieked in joy. “Honey! We got it! I told you we


    would get lucky today!”


    “You’re so smart, Honey!” Thomas was over the moon as well. He hugged Yeva and gave her a big


    sloppy kiss on the cheek. “You’re my lucky star!”


    Thomas had already given up on unrealistic expectations when the first six stones turned out to be just


    rock. He harbored no hope of ever recovering his loss, but when he found out that the impossible just


    happened, he was exhrated beyond measure.


    Meanwhile, Yandel was disgruntled when the result was announced.


    No one knew better than him that the seventh stone belonged to Natalie.


    The jade expert went on the stage to talk about the piece of jade.


    ording to his observation, he said that it was premium jade despite the uneven color of the jade.


    However, given that there were impureposites on the side of the jade, that would be a big setback


    for asking for a higher selling price in the market, yet despite all this, this single piece was worth tens of


    millions.


    Thomas took the jade over, rubbing its surface with a victorious and greedy grin on his face.
