Chapter 245: Ten Percent of Reed Corporate Shares

The atmosphere grew silent for a moment. Mack looked at Lily Ward and asked, "Lily, are you also interested in jade gambling?"

"A little," Lily Ward replied modestly with a smile. "My grandfather loved it, so he often took me to various jade markets when I was young. I watched him gamble on stones with others." "I'm very interested too," Mack said, delighted to find a common topic with Lily Ward. "I've even been to mining areas to buy raw stones and watched workers pick and wash them." "Why don't we accompany Ms. Reed this afternoon?" Lily Ward suggested. "My friend has both windowed and unwindowed raw stones this time, for guests who want to try their luck." "Sure," Mack agreed enthusiastically.

"I'd like to go too, Lily. Would you mind taking me along?" Griffin said, unwilling to be left out.

"I want to go too," Audrey Woodwind chimed in, glancing at the bracelet on Tina's wrist. She thought if her grandmother wasn't biased, she could pick a good stone at the market and have it made into a bracelet at Annabelle's expense. She smiled at Annabelle. "Grandma, you haven't given me a graduation gift yet. If I find something I like but don't have enough pocket money, will you cover it?"

"Audrey!" Esther frowned in displeasure. "If you want something, your parents will buy it for you."

"Alright, I'll cover it," Annabelle said, understanding Audrey Woodwind's little scheme. To maintain harmony among the younger generation, she couldn't show favoritism.

"Thank you, Grandma," Audrey Woodwind beamed with joy.

With that, everyone expressed their desire to go together.

"Miss Reed, why don't you join us too?" Lily Ward suggested to Tina. "You probably haven't had the chance to visit a jade market before. It could be an eye-opener for you. If you find something you like, I'm sure Annabelle will get it for you." Her words subtly belittled Tina's taste and experience.
