Novel & Cerita Damaged Pearls

Alex laughed, then haughtily said to me: "It is true that some pearls have been picked up by her and put in the box. But unfortunately, the number of pearls lying there is still missing one. I wonder if I can make it difficult for this maid Daisy because she lost a precious pearl?" When I heard that sentence, I was shocked. Pearls were inherently precious. The pearls here were of the same size and color. They must have been selected from hundreds of other precious pearls. It's worth probably as much as three or four months of my salary combined. If this box was missing a pearl, it means that one of us must compensate Mrs. Luna. It's a bad idea to take three or four months' wage in exchange f

He entered the bedroom to see her staring fearfully at. A glowing pearl. Blue light shone from the familiar little concretion, lightning up the surrounding of the drawer where it lay. Wide brown eyes met him, "Why is it glowing? I-I just remembered that the ring fell from my hands before I pawned it. There were three pearls to it, a-and this one fell off, so I took it before pawning the ring..." Wolfariane walked past her and picked up his pearl. "It wasn't glowing before. W-Why is it glowing?"

Resting on top of the pedestal was the Forbidden Pearl, glowing with an otherworldly light. Lucian's eyes widened in amazement as he reached out to touch the pearl. But just as his fingers brushed against it, the ground began to shake, and the chamber started to crumble around him. Lucian yelled to himself, "I must get out of here! This place is collapsing!" With the Forbidden Pearl in hand, Lucian made a run for it, dodging falling debris and dodging traps as he dashed through the ruins. And finally, he emerged from the crumbling entrance.

~Mirabelle~ I had put all activities on hold. It felt as if I was suffocating, locked in my mind and I couldn't breathe. All staffs were running helter-skelter, assembling files and putting on orders on how the crash happened. I had gone to Hyde's Jewelries for check up and what I saw nearly made my throat hang. The Jewelry project was no more. According to the makers and handlers, it had exploded during its second round of testing. The new Jewelry collection we were planning on introducing to the world was no more. It's sapphires, rubies and silvers were all puffed into smoke. A part of me was grateful that it wasn't the whole industry that was exploded just the project that was worth more

It hit the floor with a soft clink as the pearls broke and scattered everywhere on the floor. “Oh my God,” Celeste gasped, hands flying to her mouth. “I’m so sorry, Julia. It just slipped… I didn’t mean to! I swear!” I said no words. Alex knelt beside me, helping collect the beads while Celeste watched from the bed with the fake apology plastered across her face and behind it… I saw the satisfaction of triumph in her face. Excited that if she can’t have it, then I can’t too. I held the string of broken pearls in my hand, then stood.

Myles wanted to refuse at first, but after the latter threw in a few rainbow pearls, he agreed to take on the task. Rainbow pearls, as their names implied, were pearls that had the colours of the rainbow. And these pearls were several women dreams. They were rare and pretty much expensive, even more than dragon eggs. Because anyone who took them would retain their youth forever until they pass away. It could also extend someone's lifespan by two decades or more. How could people not desire it?

Josephine inquires. Max sighs heavily and gives me a piercing look. “I don’t know. Why don’t you ask that woman?” he says. He hands over a piece of the jewelry I crafted. Taking the jewelry from him, I immediately notice the extent of the damage—it’s much worse than what Josephine had shown me earlier. The clamps meant to secure the beads are so loosened that several beads have already fallen off, and the delicate wiring meant to hold everything in place is visibly fraying. Seeing the condition of the piece, it’s obvious that it has been tampered with. My heart sinks as I realize the seriousness of the situation.

I am too used to playing the martyr, I fear. "You've seen the news?" Mikhail asked. His friend grinned. "Of course. Bet you leaped at the chance to see the jewels for yourself." "I already have." Mikhail's smile slipped at the memory of how the pearls had looked. Once a bag of opalescent joy he'd carried in a large red cloth bag, now a pinkish-gray and sunken looking. It was enough to break a dragon's heart. Jewels were meant to be guarded and cherished, not tarnished.

She grabbed the pearl. “Wait, don’t touch that!” They yelled. “What’s wrong?” She said while holding it. That left them flabbergasted. “Nothing?” Cai Kang said. “It doesn’t hurt?” “No. I feel fine.” Chiemi said while examining it. "Why?" Then she stopped. "It's not cursed or radioactive, is it?" She panicked. Kurai then touched the pearl in Chiemi’s hand and held back in pain. “That still hurt.” he hissed.
