Chapter 146


    Hearing this, Maggie was left speechless.


    Leonard, who had never opposed her in the past, actually spoke up for Olivia now! In the past, when


    Olivia argued with others, she would say rude words in disgust, without the supposed demeanor of a


    youngdy from a famous family.


    But now? He actually felt that there was no problem at all and was instead teaching her a lesson.

    Maggie almost flipped out! The sense of crisis in her heart was remarkably serious.


    Turning around, she happened to meet Olivia''s gaze that seemed to look pleased from afar.


    Just like a high and mighty person, Olivia looked down on her, like she was an animal captured under a


    net, destined to fail in escaping the trap.


    Maggie, who had always been arrogant, was so angry that her entire body trembled.


    In an instant, an idea popped into her head.


    While she was having a meal with Leonard, she replied to the countless text messages sent by Isaac.


    [I''m sorry for my sister''s rudeness, I hope you won''t mind.]


    During this period of time, although Maggie hated him, she knew how to use him.


    It was as if the news hasn''t been brought out into the open.


    Therefore, Isaac knew that she was only an outsider who was attached to the Clements.


    It was also revealed that the members of their family were getting more and more ruthless, framing her


    parents.


    So her parents were still wanted due to false charges.


    ‘‘As usual, men, even though there a lot obstacles to face, still won''t care about the consequences of


    their actions”


    Maggie now hoped that Isaac would do something she was truly satisfied with to please her! In the next


    two days, the school was still peaceful.


    However, a big piece of news was spread all over LC City that inside the Treasure Pavilion was a jade


    vein still intact!


    After a few days of excavation, more than 60% of the jade mined was considered as top-grade jade! If


    the number ofter stages was considerable, the initial prediction value of the entity would not be less


    than one billion! When this piece of news came out, a huge ruckus was set off in LC City! Everyone


    praised the Treasure Pavilion as worthy of being called the ‘Treasure’ Pavilion.


    The jade vein was simply a feast for the eyes.


    Everyone was secretly whining how someone else could have such fortune and if only they had


    discovered it themselves then others would be envious of them instead.


    Charles was dumbfounded for a few seconds when he saw the news stating the location where the


    jade veins were dug out, then he nearly threw up a mouthful of blood! His entire body expressed regret


    and sorrow that his stomach churned, his eyelids rolled, and he almost swallowed his anger!


    "A jade vein? There''s an actual jade vein in that ce?!"


    What could be more agonizing than being sold as a cabbage even though Alistair was clearly under


    him? Fortunately, before he saw the news, he was able to take his pills and his health had improved a


    lot, praising the usefulness of it.


    He believed that as long as he continued to take it, it wouldn''t be a problem for him to live for another


    three to five years or more! But now, he realized that the pill in his hand couldn''tpare to the billion-


    worth gem.


    ‘‘It''s a loss, a big loss!’’ Charles was so angry that he pounded his chest and stamped his feet.


    He disappointedly questioned himself, "Why am I so stupid? I actually gave way to let someone have


    such a huge treasure!"


    The butler on his side was also left in awe.


    He never would have thought that such a ce was actually a treasure trove, having that kind of riches


    within its walls.


    But since things havee to this point, he can onlyfort his master.


    "Master, there is nothing more important than your life and health, this is what money can''t buy"


    Even if the jade vein belonged to the Laurens, so what? Would he be able to have the chance to gain


    from it? We should be content and still be grateful for being alive in this world.


    But the undeniable fact was that, if a person was almost near to his death, they longed to enjoy their


    life more.


    Now that Charles was still alive and well, all he wanted was money and riches! He was so angry that


    he couldn''t hold himself back from spatting out blood.


    Back then, North told me not to give the pavilion to others.I scolded her for being unreasonable.It''s my


    fault.I am at fault.North also heard the news and immediately ran downstairs, saying “Dad, leave this


    matter to me.I''ll handle it!".
