Charlie grinned as he remarked, “Master Kilgore, honestly, the present I’ve prepared for Miss Jasmine isn’t just valued at over ten thousand dors; it’s undoubtedly worth even more than your ne.”


    Sam’s reaction was one of anger as he retorted, “Where on earth did youe from? You actually have the audacity to be so boastful in my presence?”


    With a calm demeanor, Charlie responded, “What will you do if my gift truly is more valuable than your ne?”


    Sam let out a derisive snort and dered, “With so many witnesses here today, if your gift to Miss Jasmine genuinely surpasses the value of my ne, I will eat that ne right here and now.”


    Charlie pped his hands and smiled, affirming, “Alright then, it’s a deal.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Sam’s expression darkened as he pressed, “Master Wade, what happens if your gift to Miss Jasmine turns out to be less expensive than mine?”


    Charlie maintained his smile, stating, “If my gift is indeed less valuable, I will eat the entire set of tableware right in front of you.”


    Sam burst intoughter, saying, “That set of tableware is made of bone china. What if you can’t actually consume it?”


    Charlie replied withposure, “If I lose the bet, I’ll make sure to swallow the whole set of tableware, even if I have to break it into pieces first.”


    Upon hearing this, Jasmine quickly interjected, “Master Wade, why engage with him like this? Even if you gave me a piece of paper, it would still hold immense value to me.”


    Charlie smiled gently and reassured her, “Miss Moore, you don’t need to worry. I always have confidence in what I do.”


    Seeing Jasmine’s concern for Charlie only fueled Sam’s irritation further.


    In a fit of frustration, he mmed his hands on the table, rising to his feet as he apuded mockingly, “Alright then! Master Wade, you truly carry yourself like a gentleman! With so many witnesses present, if your gift for Miss Jasmine is indeed more extravagant and costly than mine, I will swallow the ruby ne I gifted her. However, should your gift prove to be less valuable than mine, you will consume this entire set of bone china tableware!”


    Charlie nodded, his smile unwavering, “If that’s the case, I would like to ask Miss Moore to reveal the gift I gave her.”


    Jasmine felt a twinge of worry as she carefully retrieved the small gift box Charlie had given her.


    Having not yet opened the box, she was unaware of its contents.


    At that moment, Charlie spoke softly to Jasmine, “Miss Jasmine, I apologize for putting you in a position to unveil my gift here in front of everyone.”


    Jasmine quickly responded with respect, saying, “Master Wade, you are too courteous.”<fn6622> Official source is Find1Novel</fn6622>


    With a warm smile, Charlie urged, “Then, could you please open the gift box for everyone to see, Miss Jasmine?”


    As Sam observed the gift box in Jasmine’s hand, which was norger than a ring box, he scoffed, “Your gift is so diminutive. Even if it contains a diamond, it wouldn’tpare to the worth of my ruby.”


    Charlie responded with a smile, “Diamonds are merely carbon elements. To me, there’s no significant difference between a diamond and a piece of coal. So why would I give such amon gift to Miss Jasmine?”


    Sam’s irritation intensified upon hearing Charlie’s dismissive words.


    He felt insulted, thinking that Charlie wasbeling him as someone with poor taste.


    With a cold snort, he said, “There’s no reason for us to keep chatting aimlessly. Let’s see what’s inside your gift box. I really doubt that anything so small could be worth more than twenty million dors. You’re definitely going to have to eat that set of tableware!”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
