For a moment, the stone cutter hesitated to continue cutting the stone.
After a while, he picked up a signal from Lewis and continued his work.
His cutting movements were much more cautious than before.
While the others were shocked, Harriet remained calm.
She smiled at Lily and said, “Miss Lynch, I don’t think we’ll need an appraisal. Everyone here can tell whose stone is more valuable.”
Lily’s eyes glinted with malice, and she clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her flesh.
Although she didn’t know much about gems, judging by the expressions of those around her, she could guess that Harriet’s stone produced a better gem.
Harriet won this bet.
Lily had made all the necessary preparations, and the salesperson had introduced all the raw stones capable of producing precious gems to her.
‘Why do I still lose in the end? Why is Harriet so lucky? It can’t be!’ She thought.
She wondered why the salesperson hadn’t introduced the stone selected by Harriet to her earlier.
If there were top-quality gems inside that stone, the salesperson should have introduced them to her.
It must be a trap.
Otherwise, Harriet wouldn’t have found such a good stone.
Lily believed that Harriet didn’t know a thing about stone gambling.
Apart from cheating, Harriet would never be able to find that stone.
The salesperson and Harriet were wicked enough to deceive her. They deserved to die.
Fuming with rage, Lily pointed at Harriet and shouted, “Harriet, you have no scruples to win against me. It’s shameful to cheat in front of so many people.”
Harriet laughed in response.
Lily had the nerve to say that.
Did she forget that she had come to gamble in this area because the salesperson told her that the raw stones there could produce precious gems?
Lily really had no sense of shame.
She was supposed to be a fair lady, but she coveted Delbert and stopped at nothing.
That was not decent at all.
Harriet planned to make Lily face the music, but Lewis suddenly walked up to Lily and warned her. “Miss Lynch, are you suspecting that we helped Ms. Munoz cheat? You’d better be careful with your words.” Lewis had informed those in charge to replace some of the raw stones with those that could produce valuable gems.
He also knew which raw stones could produce gems.
But unexpectedly, the stone chosen by Harriet produced a top-quality gem that hadn’t been seen in over a decade.
He was astonished because the stone selected by Harriet was not among the ones arranged by his men.
In other words, Harriet had eyes for the best stones.
