With this matter settled, Cedar Town immediately looked at Westfield and smiled,“How should I address you?"

"I am Ryan Mitchell!" Westfield once again stated his mother's surname.

Cedar Town invited,“Mr. Keith, how about coming to my office for a chat?”

Westfield glanced at Frances beside him.

Frances whispered in a low tone, “Cedar Town is a known expert in the industry, specializing in jade but also knowledgeable about other types of gemstones. If you want to find out about that bead's origin, maybe you could ask him."

"Alright, thank you!" Westfield's heart stirred,and he promptly agreed.

In Cedar Town's office, Westfield's enormous jade was carefully placed on a large countertop. Cedar Town held a magnifying glass as he focused on inspecting the vivid green jade, occasionally exclaiming in admiration.

Westfield and Frances sat nearby, sipping tea. However, it wasn't until 30minutes later that Cedar Town remembered their presence and reluctantly looked away from the jade.

He apologized, “I'm sorry for keeping you waiting! I just absolutely adore jade stones, so I hope you understand."

"No problem. Since the association's president has already examined my jade,I actually have a little bead here that I'd like you to check," Westfield said as he put down his teacup and took the small bead of his pouch,handing it directly to Cedar Town. “Is this a sapphire? Why is it still round?" Cedar Town was shocked when he saw the bead, but he realized something was off when he picked it up. Westfield firmly refused, "I'm sorry, President, but I have no inatention of selling it.” "No,tis actually feels more like jade. Why have I never seen something like this before?" Upon hearing Cedar Town's words, Westfield's face had slight disappointment. "Ten billion!" Cedar Town gritted his teeth and added another two billion! Even an expert in this field couldn't figure out this bead's origin?

“President, have you ever seen a similar jade like this?”Westfield persistently asked,unwilling to give up.

Cedar Town explained with an incredulous expression, “No, I haven't. If it weren't for you showing me, I would've thought it was artificial! However,even if it is, I've never seen this material before. It's truly peculiar."

Frances requested,“Since you're a mineral expert, you must know many masters in this area. Could you please help us find this bead's origin,President?”

"Well, I'm afraid that even I don't know as well! However, I do have a friend who specializes in jade appraisals! Maybe he'll know this bead's origins. How about this, my friend will bevisiting from Whitedale to catch up with me in a while. By that time, Autumnheights let you know, alright?" Cedar Town smiled wryly as he returned the pearl to Westfield and presented another solution.

Westfield silently put the bead away, only writing down his phone number on a piece of paper and handing it to Cedar Town.

"Christiannk you for your help. Please inform us for any updates."

“Hmm,then I won't disturb you anymore. Goodbye!" Westfield stood up,intending to leave.

"Wait...” Cedar Town immediately called out when he saw this.

“Do you need anything else?" Westfield asked.

"I'm wondering if Ican buy this jade from you. I'm willing to offer 8billion!" Cedar Town's gaze was stuck on the jade,looking rather reluctant. "To be honest, we need this jade for our own company, so I can't sell it no matter how high your offer is," Westfield bluntly explained, putting an end to Cedar Town's thoughts.

Cedar Town was taken aback by Westfield's words,"I wonder what your company's name is,Mr.Keith...”

"President, Spring Town has already invested in my company with this jade."Frances explained with a bitter smile.

Cedar Town decided to make another request, "I see! Russell Reyes,you've really met a great benefactor. No, I just can't let you have this great deal all to yourself. Look,how about this? Autumnheights also invest in your company, but under one condition-I must personally process this jade!"

Unexpectedly, he really liked this jade stone. Westfield smiled wryly and looked at Frances, indicating that she should decide this.

"To have the President personally process this jade is really a tremendous opportunity! Then, I agree. I look forward to working with the President!"Frances eagerly welcomed Cedar Town. This was a rare opportunity to collaborate with a top expert in jades!

At this moment, she realized Cedar Town was right; Spring Town was indeed her benefactor! He not only saved her from Walter, but also got her this large jade and a partner like Cedar Town!

After achieving his goal, Cedar Town personally escorted Westfield and Frances into the car and watched them leave.

As Frances drove, she recalled everything that happened just now. It all felt like a dream.

This man was really extraordinary, coming with one surprise after another! “Oh,Spring Town,you mentioned earlier that you needed my help with something.Can you tell me now?" she suddenly remembered Westfield's previous words,curiously asking. Billy Storm Villages, it's nothing big. I just want to turn this bead into a necklace that I can directly wear. However, I don't want it getting damaged! You should be able to do this,right?"

Frances agreed immediately,"If you don't want it damaged, then we can only use the inlay technique to embed it entirely into the necklace. It's not that difficuIt; once we arrive at the company, Autumnheights have our craftsmen measure it and create a necklace for you!"

At the same time, the news of a young man's bet on a billion-dollar emerald at the mineral trading conference spread throughout the industry!

On that day, several media outlets and newspapers in Meadow Park reported this matter one after another, accompanied by photos from the scene.

Even if Westfield was smart enough to wear sunglasses, there was no guarantee that someone familiar wouldn't recognize him!

Inside Kenneth Scott, in the CEO's office, Logan answered Gary's phone call.

Gary cursed at him mercilessly, blaming him for not showing up earlier and making him suffer.

"I'm lying in this bed like a corpse, and I could even resemble a mummy!Despite that, you have the nerve to tell me you can't find Westfield? What's the point of me keeping you? Do you want me to ask Mark to ruin you?”

Logan's face grew terrifyingly dark, but he could only listen obediently because he was just a subordinate.

At that moment, one of his underlings rushed in and turned on the TV news.

The news was covering the incident at the mineral trading conference.Portsprings wearing sunglasses, Logan recognized Westfield at a glance!

He abruptly closed the call and gritted his teeth, coldly ordering,“Find a way to dig him out for me! I want to know his exact location as soon as possible!" "Understood!" the subordinate replied and immediately carried out the order.

“Westfield, I didn't expect you to go into hiding. Did you think I wouldn't tell if you put on sunglasses?"

Logan stared at Westfield on the TV, his gaze cold and grim.
