The Clutches Of Hell Novel

Chapter 39

“Why don’t we set up a time to meet up… Mr. Diaz, something’s come up. I’ll talk to you next time.” Cameron accidentally glanced at Christian, who was standing at the door and was so shocked that his heart nearly stopped. As such, he quickly hung up the phone.

He swallowed his saliva and said carefully, “Mr. Thatcher.”

Christian nodded. “Did I scare you by suddenly coming in?”

“No, no!” With his heart pounding very quickly, Cameron said while smiling sheepishly, “I just didn’t think that you’d be looking for me. I’m… I’m surprised. Yes, surprised!”

“You look like you’re in a good mood today,” Christian said casually.

Hearing that, Cameron swallowed his saliva again. “I’m just happy to have the pleasure of meeting you.”

“Hmm?” Christian raised his brows slightly, but there was a hidden meaning behind it.

“O-Other than that, there’s another thing that has made me happy.” Cameron wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and felt his knees buckle. “I found a treasure at the antique market recently.”

Christian walked a few steps to the couch and sat himself down. “You’re quite lucky, then. Do I have the pleasure of looking at your treasure to get some luck from it?”

“Don’t even mention it, Mr. Thatcher. This jade necklace is able to grab your attention.” Although Cameron was not willing to, he still took out the jade necklace and gave it to Christian with both of his hands.

When Christian saw the jade necklace, his eyes darkened a little. He then played with the necklace in his hand and asked, “This jade necklace is from the Renaissance period. It should be worth more than ten million, but you found it in the antique market? Since you have such good taste, do you want me to recommend you to the city’s art appraisal center? Hmm?”

“I… I…” Big droplets of sweat were flowing down Cameron’s face from his forehead.

While touching the cool and smooth jade necklace, Christian said in a deep voice, “No rush. Think properly before you answer.”

he nearly fell down on his knees when he heard that. His eyes darted around, and in the end, he said while grinding his teeth, “Victoria gave me this jade necklace. She wanted me to help her change her job
