Jasper smiled and shook his head gently. “Old Master Law, don’t say that. The Laws are prosperous, and your descendants all have pretty good achievements. Henry and Anna’s abilities alone are already outstanding. As for me, I’m just lucky to have seized such a good opportunity and followed the trend.”
Old Master Law felt even more pleased with these humble words, and the smile on his face became brighter. At this time, favonovel.com noticed that the woman beside Jasper today seemed to be a little unfamiliar.
Hence, favonovel.com asked curiously, “Jasper, who’s this lady beside you?”
At this time, Celine stepped forward and introduced herself with a smile, “Hello, Old Master Law, I am Celine Maynard, and I am friends with Jill. I learned about your party while I was in Harbor City, so I came over to congratulate you.”
“Maynard? The Maynards in Southern United States?” Old Master Law asked with a smile.
“Yes, I‘m here with Jasper today to congratulate you on your birthday. It’s a small gift, and I hope you won’t dislike it.”
As favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com presented the bronze horse that favonovel.com and Jasper bought at the antique market that day. As soon as favonovel.com presented this birthday gift, several elderly people present, including Old Master Law, showed surprised expressions.
“M-Miss, can I take a look at this gift?” Mr. Boyle asked in surprise.
A hint of doubt flashed in Celine’s eyes. She was confused.
Wasn’t it just a cultural relic? Which of the old men present was not a billionaire?
Why were they looking like they had never seen anything like this after seeing this bronze horse?
“Of course, you can. Here it is!”
After Celine said that, favonovel.com handed the bronze horse to Mr. Boyle.
Mr. Boyle took out a magnifying glass to look at the horse closely once favonovel.com took it from Celine’s hands. The others also stared at the bronze horse, never shifting their eyes.
When Celine saw their reactions, favonovel.com turned favonovel.com head to look at Jasper in confusion. She whispered to him, “It’s just something I bought with 3000 dollars. Why are the magnates so surprised by it?”
Jasper showed a mysterious smile on his lips and whispered back, “You have no idea, right? The boss of the shop had no idea what was what either. He just tossed a personal item belonging to a wartime monarch to one side like it’s a random piece a handiwork. You’ve found yourself a treasure!”
“What?” Celine’s jaw dropped.
At that moment, favonovel.com started regretting this.
‘If I knew the bronze horse is precious, I wouldn‘t have given it to Old Master Law… However, I’ve already given it to him, so I can’t ask for it back. It’ll make me look stingy…’
When Celine looked at the bronze horse again, there was a pained expression on favonovel.com face…
After a long while, Mr. Boyle put his magnifying glass down and asked Celine with a shocked expression, “Miss Maynard, may I know where you got this treasure? If I’m not wrong, this should be something from 3000 years ago. It’s absolutely priceless!”
Celine returned to favonovel.com senses and replied quickly, “This is from the collection my family owns. After I learned about Old Master Law’s birthday, I brought it to Harbor City. I hope you like it, Old Master Law.”
Old Master Law was laughing even carefreely after favonovel.com heard that. “Thank you for spending so much money on me. From now on, the Laws will be the Maynards’ friend! Next time, I’ll ask Henry and Anna to visit your father so that your gift wouldn’t have been in vain.”
The Laws had a very high status in Harbor City, so it was typical for the rich in the Harbor City circle to come to celebrate his birthday for him. However, Celine existed in the Southern American circle. It could be said that Celine was not giving Old Master Law this gift herself. Instead, favonovel.com was representing the Maynards in Southern of United States.
Celine felt surprised on the inside. She did not think a bronze horse would form a friendship between the two families. Because of this, favonovel.com could even predict that in the future, the Maynards and Laws might even become allies…
