Chapter 114 Come Back!

1/3

As each uncut diamond was about to be cut, Barlyn and Austin felt a mix of anxiety andanticipation.

Osborne, however, remained nonchalant.

He knew exactly what was hidden within each uncut diamond and wasn’t expecting any surprises.Although the diamonds he selected weren’t particularly high in value individually, together, theyamounted to a substantial sum.

After his selection, the Ashford family’s diamond dealing market was essentially finished.

It would be impossible to cut out diamonds worth tens of millions, or even millions, in the future.

“Here it goes!”

The first uncut diamond was finally being cut. Austin eagerly rushed forward to open the cuttingmachine’s cover, with Barlyn close beland her

As the cover lifted, Austin let out an excited exclamation.

“Wow!”

Austin’s face lit up with excitement and delight. “It’s glassy one! It’s a bit greenish. Although it’s notvery large, it’s worth at least 20 million dollars”

Barlyn, who wasn’t very familiar with diamond values, was thrilled by Austin’s reaction

This was just the first of the uncut diamonds.

They had bought over forty uncut diamonds in total, and if each one turned out this well, they couldpotentially make over 800

million!

Of course, in his mind, Barlyn knew that wasn’t likely, but the prospect was still thrilling

According to their agreed distribution, both he and Austin would get thirty percent each, so severalmillion were already in the bag

“Ha, let’s keep going!”

Both Barlyn and Austin were in high spirits, while Wesley and Ophelia were visibly uncomfortable.

“Just 200 million, at least it’s not as bad as last time.” Wesley consoled himself

The last time, Osborne had cut out over 20 pounds of glassy diamond worth more than a billion,which had made him spit blood

Twenty million was something he could handle.

The cutting continued,

Ophelia, deep in thought, suddenly approached Osborne and said softly, “Osborne, when did youstart sucking up to Ms Montagur? Your charm with women is quite extraordinary. But as a man,when will you rely on your own abilities instead of women? When will you live on your own merit?”

Osborne glanced at Ophelia with a calm expression

“Does it concern you? Ell curry favor with whoever I want and rely on whoever I choose. It’s none ofyour bustuess

“You”

Ophelia’s face flushed with anger.

Having been in a relationship with Osborne for four years and married for three, she had neverheard him speak to her like this before. His leytone stung

But they were already divorced, and she had no authority over him now.

Gritting her teeth, Ophelia said, “I’m only looking out for you! Relying on women is just temporary.Once they think you’re no longer useful, they’ll toss you aside like yesterday’s trash!”

Osborne smirked, retorting, “Ophelia, are you speaking from experience? Do you think everywoman is like you, ready to discard her husband when he’s deemed useless?

His scornful expression made Ophelia uncomfortable.

She thought to herself, “I know asking for a divorce was harsh, but I had no choice.

The Wise Order required me to divorce Osborne to ensure that the Caldwell family’s fortunewouldn’t fall into the wrong hands.

I had to be ruthless.”

“Whatever. I’m still trying to help you! And if you had shown the capability you have now back then,we wouldn’t have had to divorce. The Wise Order wouldn’t have forced us to split”

Osborne sneered, “So now it’s my fault?”

“Im not saying it’s your fault, but if you had shown your abilities earlier, we wouldn’t have ended uplike this. You have to make things awkward for me?”

Ophelia then glanced at the cutting machine.

At that moment, several uncut diamonds were being sliced open, each revealing a high–qualitydiamond worth at least 10 milton if not several tens of millions

Even someone with no experience could tell that Osborne’s method of selecting these uncutdiamonds was extraordinary.

It was unheard of for every single uncut diamond to yield a gem of such high value.

Ophelia’s breath quickened with anticipation

She thought, “If only these uncut diamonds were picked out by Osborne for me.”

She hurriedly called out, “Osborne, come back! We may not be able to be together, but we can stillbe business partners! You have an incredible knack for selecting uncut diamonds, and with theCaldwell Group’s expertise in jewelry design and sales, we could make a great team!

“Pick out the uncut diamonds, cut them, and once the money starts rolling in, the Caldwell familycan give you a 10% cut of the profits!”

Osborne was taken aback, his eyes widening in disbelief.

He looked at her with contempt “You want me to go back to the Caldwell family? And you’re offeringme a 10% share?

“Ophelia, your ambition far exceeds your capabilities. Don’t make such offers again, we’re done. Iwon’t be working with you.

With that, Osborne turned on his heel and walked away.

Ophelia stood there, stunned, her fists clenched lightly as regret and frustration welled up insideber

Chapter 114 Come Back!

Before long, over forty uncut diamonds had been sliced open.

Barlyn and Austin were so excited they could barely contain themselves, eagerly calculating howmuch money they were about to make

Meanwhile, Wesley felt overwhelmed, on the brink of passing out from the shock.

He spat out blood again, his condition worsening by the second.
