At present, there are only three porcelain items in the world called "Sangkhalok." I can't be completely certain if this is a genuine ancient treasure at its true value, but based on the knowledge I've acquired, its worth is extremely extravagant. It can be said to be a priceless treasure! I carefully wrapped the ancient porcelain item and held it close to my heart before entering the restaurant. As I stepped into the VIP room, I noticed everyone presenting birthday gifts to Mr. Kurt Thompson. The esteemed members of the Thompson family had already presented their gifts, leaving only a few grandchildren who hadn't yet given their gifts to Mr. Kurt Thompson. "Grandpa, this is a gift from me to you," Emma stood up with a bright smile and handed a golden box to Mr. Kurt Thompson. Mr. Kurt Thompson happily accepted the box and opened it in front of everyone. Immediately, a sparkling emerald ring appeared before Mr. Kurt Thompson. "I know you have a passion for collecting gemstones,
"Hey! Andrew, what do you have in your hand? Is it a birthday gift?" Mike looked at the box in my hand. "Everyone, look, there seems to be a fast delivery invoice sticker on the box!" A customer exclaimed. "Fast delivery?" Mike acted as if he had discovered something new and said, "Did you buy the gift online?" "He couldn't afford to buy a gift. So, of course, he had to buy it online," Mrs. Laelia mocked. "That's right!" Mike chuckled and nodded. "You're right, I bought a gift." Seeing them looking down on me like that, I decided to give the antique bowl in my hand to Mr. Kurt Thompson to make those who looked down on me feel ashamed. "Did you really buy a birthday gift online?" Emma frowned unhappily and glanced at me, asking softly. "Yes!" I nodded seriously. "I told you that I would prepare a gift, so why did you ruin it?" Emma blamed me. She, like the others, felt that the gift I bought had no value and that giving it to Mr. Kurt would only make me lose face and feel em
Emma's expression was extremely unpleasant to look at. Mrs. Brebeca glared at me with anger in her eyes as if she wanted to devour me alive. "A dog's mouth can't speak human language!" I coldly retorted. "Who are you cursing?" Mrs. Laelia lowered her face. "I'm cursing all of you ignorant fools!" "You..." "I'm telling you that the bowl in my hand is an antique porcelain bowl, the Sangkhalok blue-glazed bowl!" I said. "The Sangkhalok blue-glazed bowl?" Suddenly, an old man sitting to the left of Mr. Kurt Thompson spoke up. This old man's name was Cuthbert Rodriguez, he was a friend of Mr. Kurt Thompson's and also one of the most famous antique appraisers in the world. "Mr. Cuthbert Rodriguez, what's the matter?" Mr. Kurt Thompson immediately asked. Mr. Cuthbert Rodriguez didn't answer Mr. Kurt Thompson but stood up and walked in front of me, asking, "Is the bowl you're holding a Sangkhalok blue-glazed bowl?" "Exactly!" "Can I see it?" "Sure, but you can only look, not touch
They couldn't understand why I possessed such a valuable antique bowl."Andrew, show me your antique bowl," suddenly said Mr. Kurt Thompson, laughing at me.Anyone with a clear mind could understand that Mr. Kurt Thompson wanted to take possession of my antique bowl."Grandpa, didn't you just say that my bowl is trash? If it's trash, then you don't need to look at it or touch it, to keep your hands and eyes clean," I sarcastically replied to Mr. Kurt Thompson.Mr. Kurt Thompson frowned, his veins pulsating on his forehead.Others were taken aback, not expecting me to speak to Mr. Kurt Thompson in such a manner.I approached to congratulate Mr. Kurt Thompson on his birthday, but he treated me just like any other member of the Thompson family, considering my gift to be worthless trash.If Mr. Kurt Thompson looked down on me, I had no intention of giving him the satisfaction.The more Mr. Kurt Thompson desired the green porcelain bowl, the less I wanted to give it to him.Revenge is a di
I saw Emma holding a box of fried noodles in her hand."Just now I noticed that you didn't eat anything before leaving, so on the way back, I bought a box of fried noodles for you," she said. Emma smiled and handed me the box of fried noodles.I took the box and politely said, "Thank you.""Come to the dining room and eat, your parents have also returned, and they have something to discuss with you," Emma said with a smile.I knew right away that if there wasn't something they needed help with, Emma wouldn't be so kind to me. I nodded in agreement and followed Emma to the dining room.As I appeared, Mrs. Brebeca nudged Mr. Axel, who was sitting next to her. Mr. Axel cleared his throat and said, "Andrew, come sit with me!"I nodded and then sat across from them, placing the box of fried noodles on the table without opening it to eat immediately.Before going to my wife's house, I had returned to my parent's place and hidden the antique bowl there. Conveniently, I also had two plates of
Today I made Mr. Kurt Thompson unhappy, and if Emma and I still want to get a divorce, he probably won't give much of his assets to her family in the will.Mr. Kurt Thompson had emphasized that anyone who wants to inherit from him must be married, and if they are the son-in-law of the Thompson family, they must accept their role as a son-in-law.Emma sighed, slightly calmer, and then said, "Andrew, don't forget that you already signed an agreement with me. Do you want to divorce me? It won't be that easy!""That's right!" Mrs. Brebeca chimed in, adding to Emma's words, "If you want a divorce, you'll have to compensate for the agreement!""If you want compensation, I will compensate. This is just a small matter!" I replied with a nonchalant tone.Mrs. Brebeca and Emma had planned to use the compensation money from the contract to control me, but they didn't expect me to ignore it, so they didn't know what else to say."Alright! We're family, let's not rush into a divorce because of a f
Harris nodded, she seemed to trust me a lot.I reached out and gently held Harris' shoulder, then lightly touched it.My movements were gentle, but Harris let out a slight cry of pain.Seeing that, I said, "Just bear with it for a moment. Your arm is dislocated, and I need to reset it for you.""Or we could go to the hospital..." Before Harris could finish speaking, I swiftly and deftly twisted her forearm outward and then inward.The joint in Harris' arm made a sound, and she was in such pain that she broke out in a cold sweat, continuously moaning in agony.However, because my actions were too fast, she only felt the pain for a moment."You should try moving your arm now." I let go of Harris' hand and smiled.Harris cautiously lifted her left arm. After confirming that her left arm was no longer in pain, she felt confident and vigorously moved her arm."Wow! My arm is moving! And it doesn't hurt anymore!" Harris was excited, her smile blooming, and her eyes filled with astonishment.
I'm looking for an excuse to convince Mr. Reuben. "I have a friend who claims to have invented a device for treating lung inflammation, which is currently undergoing successful testing. I think you should give it a try." Seeing Mr. Reuben and Mrs. Anna still hesitating, I added, "Dad, how about giving it a chance? Of course, the decision is yours!" Mr. Reuben pondered for a moment, then slowly raised his head and said, "Okay! I trust you! After all, my illness has no chance of being cured. The daily medications and chemical treatments have exhausted my physical and mental state." Upon hearing Mr. Reuben's words, Mrs. Anna quietly shed tears, her face showing deep concern. Although Mr. Reuben had undergone surgery before, it wasn't entirely successful as the diseased area had not been completely removed. Two months ago, after Mr. Reuben went to the hospital for a health check-up, it was discovered that his cancer cells were rapidly multiplying. A tumor had also grown beneath his co
