A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 403

Chapter 403 No Refund

“Give it to them. This stone is worthless.”

Jared said once again.

Before Oliver could speak again, Lizbeth scolded, “Return the stone right now! You’re such an idiot. No wonder you got swindled. Just take this as a lesson!”

Oliver didn’t know what to say. In the end, he gritted his teeth and tossed the stone to Joseph helplessly. Then, he lowered his head with a dejected look on his face.

“I told you, the stone is worthless. It only had a thin layer of imperial jade on the surface. If you cut deeper, there would be nothing in it.”

Jared patted Oliver on the shoulder to comfort him.

“Really?” Oliver quickly raised his head in surprise.

If what Jared said was true, the stone would be worthless, and he wouldn’t suffer any losses.

“Of course!” Jared smiled gently.

Joseph sneered upon hearing Jared’s words. “I’ve been in the stone gambling business for decades. My judgment can’t be worse than a kid in his twenties. With such green coloration on this stone, there must be at least three pieces of imperial jade in it!”

“If you don’t believe me, you can make another cut and see it for yourself!” Jared said to Joseph.

The crowd immediately became interested when they overheard their conversation. They gathered around and shouted, “Make another cut!”

“Okay, I shall make one more cut!” Joseph said.

Then, he passed the stone to his subordinate, and the subordinate meticulously cut the stone again.

After cutting it again, there was indeed nothing inside, not even a bit of green.

This time, everyone was stunned. Even Joseph gasped in disbelief.

“Don’t stop cutting!” Joseph yelled at his subordinate.

After another cut, there was still nothing inside.

“Of course. You may choose any stone you want from this pile.” Joseph pointed to the pile of stones behind him.

Jared glanced at the pile of stones and discreetly shook his head. There was no imperial jade in the pile of stones, not even an ice stone.

However, when he looked over at the messy pile of stones in a bag nearby, he trembled slightly.

“What about the stones over there? Can I choose from that pile?” Jared pointed to the messy pile of stones and asked.

“Those are worthless stones that have been cut open. If you want to pick one, it will be ten thousand.” Joseph glanced at the messy pile of stones and said.

“Jared, those are all worthless stones that have been cut open. You won’t get anything good,” Oliver hurriedly advised.

The stones had all been cut open. However, they were repurchased by the stone gambling store after the first cut. Hence, the price was pretty low. If the stones were cut three or four times, they would have no value at all.

Jared ignored Oliver. He walked directly toward the stones and began to choose.

Soon, Jared had already chosen ten pieces of stones. Looking at the stones that had already been cut, Oliver sighed over the one hundred thousand Jared had wasted.
