Chapter 136
136 Treasure Contest
May wanted to find a hole to hide in on the spot. How could there be such an embarrassing thing? There is actually a traitor in our family, and we even lost face in front of the Harris family.
She turned her head to look at Sharon. I didn’t expect it to be discovered by this woman.
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt as she sat there in dejection.
“I didn’t expect Sharon to be so capable! We underestimated her before.”
“How could she not have any ability when she has married into the Harris family? We really didn’t know what she was capable of, so we’re talking nonsense here. In my opinion, Wallace really married the right person!”
“I have to admit that this Sharon is really beautiful. She should be the most beautiful person in the Harris family.”
Hearing the praise from the surrounding people, June felt a little better. My daughter-in-law has finally come in handy.
“Sorry, I’m late. I’ve been busy at home lately. I thought it was Nicole’s birthday, so I hurried over. Did I miss anything?” Under the servant’s referral, Crystal actually walked in with a big box in her hands. “This is my present to my sister. I hope she will always be so carefree-it’s also an antique. I hope she likes it.”
As soon as Crystal entered, she attracted the attention of a large group of people. They didn’t expect Crystal to act as if nothing had happened when the York Group’s business in New York was in dire straits.
“Oh my god! Sister Crystal, is this really for me?” Nicole exclaimed, “This is an antique European folding fan from more than a hundred years ago! I only mentioned it once, and you remembered. This kind of fan produced in 1840 is worth a lot!”
“Haha, it’s good that you like it. It didn’t cost much.” Although Crystal said that, she still felt a little heartache.
The handle of the fan was made of cow bone, and there were exquisite carvings on it. On the fan was a stone slate-colored seal of a Greek fairy theme!
“It’s good that you like it. Whether it’s for collection or display, this thing is very beautiful.”
Nicole affectionately took Crystal over to her side. Crystal didn’t expect the former to directly say something before she could accept the joy. “Sharon, you see that!? What did Crystal give me, and what did you give me?”
“Nicole, don’t be ridiculous!” Wallace said in a low voice. Sharon has just bought a car and doesn’t have any money left. This girl wants Sharon to take out the gift she has prepared at this time because she wants to embarrass her. Moreover, I didn’t prepare any antiques as a gift in advance because I ran too quickly.
“Hmph, I think she doesn’t treat them as family at all. She exists like our opponent!” The surrounding people were looking forward to a big battle soon, and they were also looking forward to Sharon bringing out a better gift.
Everyone present looked at Sharon, not knowing what gift she could bring out.
Ever since Crystal entered, she realized that Wallace’s attitude toward her seemed to be even more perfunctory.
Although he had been in the business world for more than ten years, Wallace still looked like a big boy. Although he was only wearing a simple coat, his gold-rimmed glasses made him look like a noble.
“It’s just some worthless toys. If Nicole likes it, I’m willing to share it with everyone.”
Wallace watched his wife walk past him with a sense of wisdom. He had a feeling that he had mistaken her for someone else.
As she spoke, Sharon took out the thing she had asked Tommy for. “This is a 1940 customized, gold-plated light relief birdsong box. The music is leisurely green. Happy birthday, Nicole.”
This music box was rare, delicate, and luxurious. Tommy had to spend a lot of effort to take it back.
Nicole stretched out her hand as if she were taking it, but when she touched a corner of the music box... Nobody expected her to throw it forcefully.
“You think you have the money to buy this thing? I think you’re joking.” Nicole raised her chin and gazed at Sharon. “There are so many people here today, so I won’t say anything to you! However, you have to know that I won’t let you off easily!”
Sharon’s heart ached a little. Why doesn’t Nicole know anything about ancient artifacts? The music box I’ve brought is a professionally custom-made core, and the family that created this has inherited a meticulous and professional attitude for the past hundred years.
“Please give me face, Fred, Paul” Sharon brought the item to the two of them. “I don’t care if everyone appreciates it-true gold isn’t afraid of fire! This thing has a gorgeous gilded outer shell, and its entire body is covered in delicate flower and bird patterns.”
