Chapter 176: You’re Despicable

The crowd ran over from the bleachers and surrounded the stone opener.

The stone opener was busy taking out the cut raw stone and kept wiping the

cut surface with his sleeve, as if he couldn’t believe it, he looked at it again and again, and then finally, still in disbelief, he raised his head to look at Claire, “Oh my God, it’s really a ruby.”

Joseph shivered with disbelief as he pushed the man in front of him out of the way, took a few steps up and reached out to snatch the stone from the stone opener.

The material inside was in pure red, in the light, it was shimmering. It was indeed ruby!

Although it was small, it was the size of a quail egg and just such a small piece was enough to sell for a sky–high price!

The stone opener was thrilled, “I have been doing this my whole life and it’s the first time I’ve cut open a ruby! I can brag about it my whole life now!”

Zayn was even more excited that he exclaimed excitedly, “Ruby! It’s actually ruby!”

Julia rushed over and hugged Claire, kissing her on the cheek and saying, “Claire, you are amazing! I will ask for a crown carved and embed the ruby in it! You will be the Queen of raw gemstone appraising!”

Claire was happy, but not quite as over the top as they were.

She gently pushed Julia out of the way and made her way towards Joseph, “Mr. Felix, how long are you going to hold my ruby?”
