I Love You, Miss Genius

CHAPTER 299

Avril raised her voice in disbelief. “You clearly said just now that if Bonnie’s rough stone couldn’t yield anything, how come it’s turned into her stone not being as good as yours? Isn’t this changing the terms?

“You, being an expert in the industry, should be consistent with your words and actions. With so many years of experience, don’t you care about your reputation?”

“I just didn’t finish my sentence earlier. How is that changing the terms?” Jesper stood with his hands behind his back, his demeanor firm. “Or is it that she lacks confidence in herself? Fine, as long as she solemnly apologizes in front of everyone here, I’ll cancel

this bet.

“After all, I’m the elder here. It’ll be embarrassing for a senior to gamble with a junior

over stones.”

“You… you… you’re truly cunning.”

“Bold! A mere member of a small family like you, who gave you the audacity to speak to me like that? Do you think I’m someone you can easily offend? I have good relations with many prominent families in Pyralis. If you dare to disrespect me again, I’ll make sure you regret it!”

Bonnie’s narrowed eyes glinted dangerously. “Fine, I agree with your conditions. If your lose later, I’ll make you eat the stone you cut. I promise to do what I say!”

“Hmph!” Jesper snorted and turned away. He didn’t believe anything valuable could come from that piece of junk.

Floyd knocked on the door, holding a notebook.

“Come in,” Ivor said coldly.

Floyd placed the notebook in front of Ivor. “Sir, this is something you’ll be interested in.”

Ivor looked at the screen with a hint of confusion, but his rugged features softened as he saw Bonnie’s face. However, as he witnessed Jesper repeatedly bullying Bonnie, his expression grew increasingly grim.

“Sir, do you think Ms. Bonnie understands geodes? Logically, as a girl who grew up in the countryside, she shouldn’t have so much knowledge. Her talent in chess is undoubtedly

high. Even if her family background isn’t good, it’s not necessarily a hindrance.

“The same goes for racing, where family background isn’t crucial. However, geode appreciation requires sufficient experience and knowledge. Not to mention, Ms. Bonnie is only twenty years old. With her family background, she should have no chance to be. exposed to this industry, right?”

Floyd raised his hand to his chin. “But if she knows nothing, how did she figure out that Mr. Jesper’s chosen stone couldn’t yield anything good? She even accurately said that not even an inch of green could be extracted?”

Ivor’s narrowed eyes shimmered with a mysterious gleam. “Continue watching, and you’ll find out.” This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

“Yeah, if Ms. Bonnie’s chosen stone yields good–quality jade later, it’ll prove that she truly is an expert in this field, and her skills surpass even Mr. Jesper’s.”

Bonnie handed the stone she had just chosen to the professional stone cutter.

Because of this bet, almost everyone in the venue gathered around.

“What’s going on? Why’s it so lively?” A passerby asked curiously.

“It’s all because of a young girl who doesn’t know her boundaries, wanting to challenge. Mr. Jesper,”

“What? Am I hearing this right? Mr. Jesper is a big shot in our industry, not just in Pyralis but across the country. He’s a big name. And that girl?

“She looks like she’s not even twenty yet, probably hasn’t even finished her education, yet she dares to challenge Mr. Jesper? She’s like a fool rushing in where angels fear to tread!”

“Let’s see how the senior teaches the junior a lesson.”

Five minutes later, the rough stone was cut open before everyone.

“It’s green! It’s such a vibrant green! And it’s so large!”

“Oh my god! It’s massive! Unbelievable!”
