CHAPTER 1467 FATE AND JADE

Adam trembled slightly upon hearing Abel’s warning, as he was secretly afraid of the person. he was speaking to on the phone. After all, Abel had always defeated him in countless fights since they were young.

“Alright, I’ll be waiting for you. We need to discuss this anyway,” Adam conceded, although he didn’t believe that this was the way things should end.

You belong with us, Abel, not with Merrell Louise! It’s us roho you should be serving. Zahn and I deserve that much more than Emmeline does.

Later, Adam took a beautiful photo album out of a Carter box and placed one of the wedding photos into his luggage.

Meanwhile, Abel lit a cigarette and resumed driving in the traffic.

At 1:05 p.m., Brandon’s flight arrived at the airport. At the same time, Abel dialed the number given by Emmeline and someone answered the call. “Hello, this is Brandon speaking from Havencrest International.”

“Hello, this is Abel…”

Five minutes later, Brandon emerged from the crowd with confidence, and Abel immediately recognized him. While Abel also exuded a strong masculine aura, Brandon was able to recognize him at first sight as well. The two men shook hands and greeted each other with a smile, sharing a mutual sense of understanding and familiarity.

At five o’clock in the evening, Brandon arrived at Hallaway Hotel, which was located in a developing area. As soon as Emmeline saw him, she ran towards him and gave him a big hug.

“You’re still like a child, aren’t you?” Brandon smiled and patted Emmeline’s back.

“To you, we’ll always be children. You’re our master, after all, Emmeline smiled back.

“Alas! You know what? I really regret taking in the twelve of you as my disciples.” Brandon added, “Why do I feel like I’m an old man with gray hair?”

The staff around him laughed in amusement when they heard his words. Due to Brandon’s friendly and approachable nature, everyone found him pleasant to be around.

“So, what do you think about my master, Abel? Isn’t he decent and remarkable?” Emmeline. held Abel’s hand and proudly asked.

“Of course he is!” Abel caressed Emmeline’s head. “I can never hope to match him in that regard.”

“Give me a break, man.” Brandon laughed and added, “Give the rest of us a chance to date, would you? You’d be doing all other men a huge favor.”

As everyone burst into laughter again, the two men’s humorous interaction made them shine.

By the time the decoration was finished, it was already 8 p.m., just when Vernon and Audrey arrived to join the rest of them for dinner. Since there were over twenty people in the group. the dinner was held in a large private lounge with two tables. Sitting in the private lounge, Vernon and his wife were greeted by Brandon, Dylan, Abel, and Emmeline.

To celebrate Brandon’s return, Vernon brought a limited–edition Whiskey that was used in the military. However, Brandon had an early morning class the next day, so he only took a few sips of it.

Meanwhile, Dylan didn’t dare to touch the bottle at all, thinking it would be inappropriate to drink before the president.

“Don’t refuse, Abel. Because if you do, I’m going to go without alcohol tonight. Vernon turned to Abel.

“Alright then, I guess it wouldn’t hurt to have a little sip.” Abel smiled, holding the whiskey bottle and pouring some into his glass.

On the other hand, Emmeline’s gaze fell on the emerald bracelet on her wrist. Intrigued, she looked at Abel and asked, “Master said this bracelet cost a fortune, and Mr. Chester’s friend. who works in the jewelry industry also said the same thing. What’s the story behind this bracelet?”

“Why are you bringing this up again, girl?” Abel furrowed his eyebrows and asked softly.

“So, is there a story behind this bracelet?” Emmeline grew even more curious.

“A story?” Abel rubbed her head. “It wasn’t easy to come by. That’s all.” content.

“Can you tell us the story?” Emmeline said, “We’re all curious about it.”

“Yeah, tell us about it.” Vernon added, “Emma said you bought this jade for 9,700. Is that true?”

Before Abel could speak, Brandon chimed in. “9,700 is the minimuna it could possibly be.”

“That’s right,” Emmeline said, “Danny Timberlake from Valoria Jewelry once mentioned that it would cost 200 times more than 9,700”

Dylan interrupted and said, “Mr. Wyatt’s father is an expert when it comes to jade and gemstones. With his knowledge in that area, I doubt he could be wrong about it.”

“No wonder…” Emmeline said, “Master asked me that question when we first met.”

“There is no way this jade would be priced at 9,700. Anyone who thinks that is completely ridiculous. This thing is not an antique. It’s not something that one can buy with a few hundred. Brandon replied.

“You’re indeed knowledgeable, Mr. Wyatt. Abel smiled.

Glassy jadeite is an extremely rare type of jade. Brandon continued. “It’s considered to be very valuable and even priceless by some, but I guess it was fate that brought it together with its current owner now.”

Emmeline’s gaze fell on Abel’s face, wondering how he was able to obtain the jade.
