    ine evaluates items based on three distinct criteria. The first criterion is their mary value—essentially, how much money one can get in exchange for the item. The second criterion is the social status or “face” that the item can provide. To ine, everything in existence boils down to these two elements: money and face.


    For instance, when Charlie gifted her a premium set of caviar skincare products valued at nearly 400,000, she recognized that it could be resold for at least 300,000. This clear financial gain made the item valuable to her.


    This aligns perfectly with her first criterion regarding value!


    In another scenario, ine has the potential to sell an item for 100,000, which not only brings financial gain but also allows her to bask in the envy and resentment of others. This dual benefit enhances her sense of worth and social standing.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    This situation illustrates her second standard: the importance of face.


    At that moment, ine nced at a Dor Blue and mused with a hint of disinterest, “If an item can’t be sold for money and doesn’t allow me to unt it to others, what value does it really have?”


    “Although this Dor blue and white elephant ear bottle appears quite valuable, it can’t be sold or disyed for others to admire. To me, it’s just a worthless trinket.”


    “Unless, of course, I were to steal it andter sell it for a few thousand dors.”


    However, she reconsidered: “No! Charlie gave this to Jacob. If I secretly sell it, Jacob might be upset, but if Charlie finds out, that would be a real problem.”


    With this thought in mind, ine decided to abandon her scheme regarding the Dor blue and white dragon-shaped elephant ear bottles.


    Meanwhile, Don Albert continued to read through the gift list.


    Mr. Quinton presented an emerald valued at 50 million, while Mr. White gifted a pink diamond of approximately the same worth.


    The two men share a good rtionship and are fairly familiar with each other. At thest auto show, they jointly gifted Charlie a sports car, and this time, they agreed to present valuable jewelry together.


    Though both gifts are of simr value, their differing types ensure there’s no risk of ovep.


    As the moment unfolded, Aurora and Fred White each held a gift box, showcasing the stunning gems inside.


    The two gemstones—one vibrant green and the other a delicate pink—sparkled beautifully under the light, creating a breathtaking disy.


    ine found herself captivated by these exquisite gems, her eyes gleaming with interest.


    She couldn’t help but recall the jade bracelet Mr. Quinton had previously gifted to Charlie.


    That bracelet was valued at several million, and after Charlie gave it to ire, ine had stealthily worn it, considering it her own until it was identally broken while in Hannah’s care. This incident remains a painful memory for her.


    Moreover, ine realized that since then, she hasn’t had much jewelry.


    Now, seeing these two wless gems, she fantasized about creating a ne from them to wear proudly, eager to showcase her status.


    However, she knew better than to act on such thoughts. If Charlie didn’t approve, she wouldn’t dare take such a risk.


    After disying the gems, Don Albert continued, announcing, “Travis Lane has gifted Master Wade an EC145 helicopter from Eurocopter!”


    This statement left the audience in sheer shock!<fn1150> Th?s chapter is updated by Find_Novel(.</fn1150>
