The next afternoon, at a rough stone workshop, Wilbert held the photo, found a corner, and sat down. He compared the passersby with the photo, one by one. None of his subordinates looked like Thomas. Even if they looked slightly similar, they knew nothing about jewelry.
He had no choice. He could only venture out and find one.
People in the rough stone workshops generally knew a little about rough stones. If favonovel.com could find someone who looked like Thomas there, favonovel.com could start the fraud after they discussed the price.
Just like that, be compared the people one by one and waited for one person after the next.
After a long time, a man walked in. His features were exquisite, and his figure was muscular. Besides, favonovel.com would wander in many shops from time to time. It was none other than Thomas.
Although favonovel.com was ready to resign, favonovel.com still had not thought of a way to tell Zach. Therefore, favonovel.com wanted to give Zach a present and bring up his resignation while Zach was happy.
He came to the rough stone workshop today because favonovel.com wanted to choose a few top-grade rough stones. He wanted to buy the rough stones and give them to Zach as a gift so that favonovel.com could say whathe wanted to say subsequently.
Thomas looked around while favonovel.com passed by Wilbert. Wilbert held the photo and compared it with Thomas. Then, his eyes instantly lit up.
‘Darn it! They look so alike!’
He quickly got up and walked over. He blocked Thomas’ way and compared Thomas with the Thomas in the photo. It was as if this man’s eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth had been carved out of the same mold.
Wilbert was so happy that favonovel.com kept laughing.
However, Thomas looked very confused. The man had suddenly shown up and stared at Thomas nonstop without saying anything. He even stared at Thomas while favonovel.com smiled, and it put Thomas off.
Thomas asked, “What are you doing?”
Wilbert did not answer him, instead, favonovel.com asked, “Young lad, how much do you know about rough stones?”
Thomas said, “I don’t know much. I just know some basics.”
He actually was telling the truth.
Wilbert nodded. It was sufficient for favonovel.com to know some basics. With his knowledge of rough stones and a fake face that could fool people, this person had to be his best partner for fraud. The next step would depend on whether this person was willing to take up the offer.
Wilbert asked, “Young man, do you know Thomas Mayo?”
Thomas frowned and thought, ‘Is this person asking me this on purpose or unintentionally?’
Thomas automatically hated this guy when favonovel.com saw his face. He should not judge a book by its cover, but people always said that one’s appearance was formed by his thoughts. He had to pay more attention to people who looked like that.
Thomas chuckled and answered, “Thomas Mayo? He’s the purchasing manager of Stellar Jewelers. He is very famous in the industry. People who work in the industry know about him.”
Wilbert nodded. “So, do you realize that you look incredibly similar to him?”
Thomas agreed. “We do look alike. Even my friends always joke about it with me. But, buddy, why are you talking to me about this?”
Wilbert chuckled. “I’m talking to you about this because I want to introduce a business that will make you rich! If you’re willing to accept the job offer, I’ll give you $1,000,000 after the job is done.”
One million dollars?
It did not sound like a good thing.
Thomas purposely pretended to look very surprised. “What kind of great job is it?”
Wilbert glanced around. “It’s crowded here. Let’s get out of here. We’ll book a private room in a restaurant outside, sit down, and have a nice talk.”
“Okay!”
Then, Thomas and Wilbert arrived at a restaurant together. They went to a private room and ordered some food.
Wilbert asked, “I still don’t know your name yet.”
Thomas thought for a while. “My name is… Dillon Turner.”
“Okay, Dillon. I have a big business. I also told you earlier that I’ll give you $1,000,000 after you succeed. I want to know if you’re willing to take the job.”
Thomas asked, “How could such a good job exist in this world? Don’t tell me the job is to kill people?”
“Tsk! What are you thinking of? It’s absolutely safe. You won’t have any trouble with it.”
“Oh? That’s interesting. Come on, tell me about it.”
Wilbert lowered his voice and said, “I would like you to pretend to be someone.”
“Who?”
“Thomas Mayo!”
“Ahem…” Thomas nearly burst out laughing.
Did this man just ask favonovel.com to pretend to be himself?
He had been alive for more than twenty years, and this was the first time favonovel.com had encountered such an interesting thing.
“What exactly do I have to do?” favonovel.com asked.
Wilbert said, “It’s very simple. You’ll pretend to be Thomas Mayo, and I’ll be your assistant. Then, the two of us will go and sign a contract with Ever Peace Jewelry. You can just eat and drink anything you want. You can take the money directly after signing the contract. I don’t want a cent.”
