Peridot X Garnet Mga Nobela at Kwento

His confidence brought a slight smile to her lips, her own aura radiating a level of self-assurance that matched his stride perfectly as they entered the underground facility. The bidding arena was an isolated, heavily fortified vault where the starting numbers for the confiscated weaponry and rare materials hovered around a base price of one million credits. Freda ran her eyes down the electronic manifest until she locked onto a high-grade jewelry piece—a heavy silver chain embedded with raw, unrefined gemstones. Her indifference vanished, replaced by genuine tactical interest. "The blue sapphires carry decent conductivity, but the housing is unstable. The crimson ruby layout, however, is e

She disappeared into the back and returned moments later with a deep red jewelry box, placing it carefully in front of me. “It is a red garnet necklace. The only one of its kind,” she explained, smiling as I opened it. The dark crimson pendant caught my eye immediately. I reached out, tracing it lightly with my finger. “Thank you.” “The pleasure is mine,” she said with a polite smile before stepping away. Maurice leaned in, studying it. “It’s beautiful.” I closed the box slowly, my fingers still resting on the edge. For a second, I saw it against Rhea’s throat—how the garnet would catch the sun.

I needed to finish this ceremony, then I could take her to our room and ravish her the way she deserves. Turning my attention to Garret, I extend my hand for him to join me on the platform. He stood beside his father, smiling happily as I took the Gamma pendent off Bennett and placed it on Garret. The uniquely crafted pendant was made of a rare moonstone that glowed with an inner radiance. Garret clasped it in his hands, squeezing it tight as a signifying his commitment to me and the pack. He and I then clasped hands as our hands began to glow with a silver, luminous light. I felt the bond shift, cutting ties with Bennett and starting new ones with Garret.

“I see that you brought some papers as well. Give that to me. I hope they’re sample designs.” “They are,” I confirm, and she flips through them immediately as soon as I hand over the files. Her face immediately goes slack with surprise and admiration. “Oh, these are gorgeous! I love the one that you designed with obsidian stones!” She shows me one of the sample designs, the interwoven gold that Émeraude is famous for, dotted with little emeralds. “I want this. Maybe don’t release this just yet because I want one for me that I can show off to my friends.”

He turned the laptop and brought it towards him, scrolled through the gallery and stopped on a particular picture. He showed the screen to her. Randy remained standing beside his boss the whole time. "Uhhh, now I see the guys holding an emerald, or whatever jewel that is." Linda replied nonchalantly. "You might think that it is just an ordinary jewel stone, but it is not." Brant stated. "Ok, lecture me!" She sat back and folded her arms across her chest. Randy was the one to kick off with the gem lectures. "That might look like any ordinary emerald or gem, but taking a closer look, it isn't just any gemstone. That is a Painite." Randy explained. "A pain… what?" Linda asked.

“Ms. Vanderbilt, Jade Mountain Co. is facing a shortage of rare rough stones. We can’t purchase rough stones like aquamarine, tanzanite, golden emerald, black opal, and topaz from them.” Maisie closed the list and looked up. “Aquamarine and golden emerald, we can order those from Millennial Gemstone Inc., the price that they can offer is more or less similar to Jade Mountain Co. As for the black opal and tanzanite, only Taylor Jewelry has them.”

She quickly relaxed her shoulders, but I noticed that momentary spark of tension. “We’re the best of friends. Have been for a long time.” She smiled and shrugged her shoulders. “That’s nice. I’m glad you three were able to be reunited here. And you all are going to add a lot of value to our pack.” She didn’t say anything, just nodded. “It’s kinda a weird coincidence that all your names are different types of gemstones, huh? Diamond, Emerald, and Sapphire. What are the chances you all would become friends, right?” I was just trying to make light conversation.

Unfortunately, they were slightly shocked, and then the anticipation in their eyes gradually dispersed. After all, this was the competition between the kings of stone gambling, and almost all the contestants were super masters in the domestic treasure identification world. Although the Furong Jadeite was good, it was not the best. Among the ranks of jadeite, the best jade was none other than imperial jade and emerald. Secondly, the ranking was basically the Old Pit Type, Icy Type, Hibiscus Type, Golden Silk Type, Dry Green Type, Flower Green Type, Bean Type, Oil Green Type, and purslane Type.

This was more than what she expected. "Three of them, to be precise." Jeremy was grinning ear to ear, stopping short of puffing his chest. Gwyneth turned toward Liam in turn, almost forgetting that he had his own hidden depths despite his usual harmless demeanor. Still, she soon turned back toward the jadeite around her on display, ranging from ores to processed objects such as jewelry. The curiosity in her heart and eyes could hardly be concealed. "Like it?" Liam asked softly as he stood behind her, his voice softening unwittingly.

“Yes, I remember. You’re lucky, I was busy looking for emeralds because you told me you wanted them. But this was in the garnet case.” Closing the box and hiding it in the closet I nodded. “Yeah, but its better this way, garnets are January's birthstone after all.” She smiled and handed me back my bank card. “Thanks mom.” Nick came running into the room now with my dad right behind him. “Did you show him?”
