I Spy With My Secret Eyes

Chapter 53

The sun was already up and blindingly bright when Oliver woke up.

He rubbed his eyes and felt a headache surging.

He then rubbed his forehead and sat up. When he looked up, he saw three faces staring at him in front of the bed.

“Oh my!”

Oliver was so shocked that he almost fainted. After taking a closer look, he noticed that it was Joanna and her parents.

The three of them sat in front of the bed and stared at him.

Oliver patted his chest and complained, “Dad, Mom, what are you doing? I was so scared, I almost had a heart attack!”

Joanna covered her mouth and didn’t speak. As for Calista, she asked him coldly, “Oliver, be honest with me. I don’t care if you got someone pregnant out of wedlock since I’m satisfied with this daughter-in-law of mine, but how did you get the money? A mansion worth more than 200 million dollars and 120 million dollars in cash? You mustn’t do anything illegal, Oliver!”

Oliver was relieved when he heard that and answered honestly, “Mom, don’t worry about it. My money is clean. Let me tell you something. Manchernius produces emeralds, but the unfinished emeralds look like raw stones, and the emerald is inside the stone. That is what Manchernius is producing. Raw emerald roughs are publicly sold in official auctions. They range from thousands of dollars to a few thousand dollars and to tens of thousands of dollars per stone. This is called stone gambling. Those who have skills depend on their skills, while those who don’t rely on luck. If they win the bet, they might make a fortune overnight!”

Calista knew that Oliver earned 800 thousand dollars from emeralds, but she didn’t know that it was earned in that way. She hesitated and stared at her son, asking, “Isn’t it still considered gambling?”

Oliver smiled and said, “It is gambling, but it’s allowed by the government. Others may consider it as gambling, but it’s easy money for me.”

Jason also listened with interest and curiosity. He leaned over and asked, “Is there a trick to it?”

“Of course!” Oliver admitted without hesitation. “I bought more than twenty pieces of raw stone from Manchernius. Most of them were bought for a few hundred dollars a piece, and I earned 140 to 160 thousand dollars after I got back. Five pieces of old mine material were from Manchernius’s official auction, with each raw stone costing hundreds of thousands of dollars. Not only that, I even earned over 4 million dollars per stone after I came back. There’s also another raw stone that I bought for around 400 thousand dollars, and after it was transported back to us, I found that it was actually a top-grade emerald after I cut it open! That one raw stone earned us up to 200 million dollars in profit, so my boss gave me 120 million dollars as commission.”
