“Of course! We met for the fi

first time today, so it’s only right for me to give you a gift,” Luke said.

Reassured by the answer, Lexd eagerly tore open the box. Inside it was a large and untreated emerald.

Linda believed it was extremely valuable.

“Luke, Imight be willing to accept other things, but I really can’t take this one. Even though I’m not in the jewelry business, I can tell this untreated emerald is worth a lot,” she said.

Since Chloe was a jewelry maker, there were times when she would share some jewelry that she thought looked good with Linda

Linda also learned from Chloe that emeralds and diamonds weren’t the same.

Diamonds were divided into burned and unburned diamonds. Those burned diamonds were graded lower than the unburned ones, and the price was also lesser compared to the unburned ones.

Unlike diamonds, emeralds were judged based on whether they had been oiled. Oled emeralds were worth less than those who were not. It was also easy to determine whether the emerald was oiled or not by looking at the glossiness of the gemstone.

Linda had also learned a lot from Chloe and was able to distinguish some of them simply.

“That emerald is something I bought back in college many years ago. I intended to set it aside for someone special, but over the years, I never met that person nor had the inspiration for the piece. Seeing Lexi today, I felt like it had finally found its new owner,” Luke explained.

Luke knew the emerald’s value, and he felt it was the right time to give it away when he saw Lexi.

“Lake, I knew you’re wealthy, but you really shouldn’t spend so extravagantly,” Linda said.

Samson interjected, “Linda, this is a gesture from Mr. Hunter for Lexi You shouldn’t deny him the chance to give her a gift,”

Luke agreed, “Yes, or else, it’s just sitting in my storage. It’d better for Lexi to have it.“”

Linda had no further objections. Lexi had come to visit Luke and walked away with an emerald worth a few million dollars.

When chloe saw the emerald, she was shocked and speechless

Linda’s hand hadn’t healed, so she had been working from home lately, Moreover, she didn’t dare go out since she hadn’t investigated everything thoroughly.

The advantage of working from home was avoiding the insincere faces of people. The downside was having Wendy come by every day to deliver documents. Besides, Lexi atten disturbed her, just like now.

Mommy! Mommy, are you done with your work? If you are, can you play with me? It’s so lonely playing games by myself. I want you to keep me company,” Lexi pleaded

Lexi had picked up the word “lonely” after having watched too many cartoons,

“But Lexi, Mommy isn’t finished with the work yet. Wendy will be here soon, so can you play with her later, okay? Linda glanced at the unfinished documents on her desk and tried to say no to Lexi, who was eagerly waiting for her.

“okay. Then, Mommy, please work hard to finish them.” Lexi hugged her little boat and walked out.

Wendy soon arrived with documents that needed to be settled for the day

“Ms. Felix, here are two film festival invitations. Mr. Joslin and I reviewed them and believe one of them is a good tit

“The events are scheduled for two weeks from now, so you should be able to attend by them. We think it’s important to participate as it will greatly impact our future projects and provide significant exposure to us”

Linda’s presence was necessary, as even Wendy and Lina felt the event was worth attending

She had thought a lot about it and realized that if she wanted to break into the entertainment industry, she needed to make an Attending more events was always a good idea, as it would generate some buzz and bring attention to her work
