Chapter 10
Master Johnson, known as the “Sorcerer of the Stone Betting Field,” personally selected a gemstone that, when cut, revealed nearly a kilogram of icy emerald jadeite, which caused a round of enthusiastic applause to erupt in the banquet hall.
“Icy emerald jadeite! This is the only stone that can rival the imperial green jadeite!”
“What a dramatic turn of events! I wonder how the judges will decide now!”
“Both stones are top-notch, unveiled on the same day, no wonder there’s such fierce competition within the Lockwood Group. Orion and Timothy, in terms of skill and luck, are evenly matched!”
With the contest revealing both imperial green and icy emerald jadeite, Tyson was thrilled, immediately calling for an expert on-site comparison.
After thirty minutes of meticulous examination, the results were announced.
Both stones were nearly equal in all evaluated aspects, but the victory was decided by a mere 5 grams, with Timothy’s team’s icy emerald jadeite weighing slightly more than Orion’s team’s imperial green jadeite.
Timothy’s team clinched the victory by this slim margin!
The crowd murmured in awe, marveling at the old adage, “In the end, it’s experience that trumps youth.” Timothy laughed heartily and clapped his hands as he approached Orion.
“My dear nephew, you let me win today!”
Cedric clenched his fists, feeling irked by Timothy’s boastful demeanor, and he wondered where he had found such a skilled last-minute ally.
Raising an eyebrow, Xanthea found her suspicions confirmed. In her past life, Orion had lost to his uncle at this very gemstone betting event, which led to malicious rumors whe they later had a car accident-it was speculated Orion had engineered it to seize contro the company.
This time, she would not let him lose.
