Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 924

Without saying a word, the gemstone cutter took up his finest tool and began meticulously grinding the stone.

In reality, he had low expectations for this stone.

He had originally intended to perform a swift, machine-assisted cut and be done with it. Nonetheless, Helen's request for a manual approach took him by surprise.

As an employee, he couldn't risk upsetting anyone, so he had no choice but to go ahead with the grinding.

As the outer layer was reduced to fine dust, the stone's true color started to reveal itself. When he finally glimpsed the interior, the gemstone cutter was left in stunned silence.

Suddenly, someone at the front exclaimed in disbelief, "It's a miracle! An incredible miracle!"

Outside the crowd, Kendrick leaned in, straining to see what was happening. His throat tightened with nervous anticipation.

Could this be the miracle he had been hoping for?

"Oh my goodness, this crimson color is stunning!"

The crowd pressed in, forming a tight circle around the scene.

"This isn't just any gemstone with a red hue—it's a Rockefeller emerald! I can't believe I'm actually seeing this legendary gem in person!"

"What did you just say? The Rockefeller emerald?"

"It's true! It really is the legendary Rockefeller emerald. No wonder the outer layer had a reddish tint—the color has penetrated all the way through!"

Everyone's attention was fixed on Helen's emerald, completely mesmerized by its beauty.

Meanwhile, Helen remained unfazed. She waved her hand and instructed, "Sir, keep going—don't stop!"

The gemstone cutter snapped back to attention and continued his work.

This time, he was entirely focused, taking a meticulous and vigilant approach with every cut.

"I'll pay ten million dollars, cash upfront!"

Despite the flood of offers, Helen remained unshaken. She shook her head and said, "Sorry, but it's not for sale."

"Then can we at least reserve a piece of jewelry made from it?"

"Yes! I'd like to place an order!"

"Well, that decision isn't mine to make," Helen announced loudly. "How this emerald will be handled is up to Mr. Kendrick Hart!"

As her words trailed off, Helen glanced toward Kendrick.

The crowd parted instinctively. Upon catching Helen's gaze from afar, Kendrick instantly understood her intent.

Brimming with excitement, he announced, "We'll use three-quarters of the Rockefeller emerald to craft stunning jewelry, while the remaining portion will be displayed as a new signature piece in Hart Jewelry's store!"
