She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1266: Chapter 1336: Once Again, the Lotus Sutra

Such people, after bankruptcy, often rely on selling things to make a living.

”How may I assist you?”

”I... I’m here to sell something,” Bill said cautiously, his usual haughty demeanor aboard the ship replaced by that of a timid child.

Here, everyone was someone he couldn’t afford to offend, not even Julian.

The blonde lady smiled, as she had indeed guessed correctly. ”This way, please.”

”Thank you!”

Bill was led into an appraisal room, where the desk was adorned with various professional appraisal tools and books. Behind the desk sat an Eastern man with black hair and black eyes.

Bill didn’t know this person, but he had heard of his famous name. Judging by his black hair and eyes, and his age, this was supposedly the store’s responsible figure, nicknamed the Grand Steward.

The middle-aged man smiled affably, wearing an expensive handmade suit and speaking fluent English with him.

”Please present the items you wish to sell.”

”Yes, sir.” Bill carefully took out the watch from his pocket and placed it in the tray on the desk. The tray was lined with red velvet, complementing the diamonds on the watch.

”This watch is very beautiful.”

”Thank you!”

The watch brand is a famous luxury brand from Europe, and this model is a limited edition, now discontinued. Even ignoring its collectible value, the diamonds alone are quite valuable.

The middle-aged man glanced at Bill in surprise, assessing from his appearance and attire. He absolutely couldn’t afford such an expensive watch; his family over three generations couldn’t afford it.

However, in this business, there are rules. A single watch wasn’t worth his inquiry. In fact, he rarely handled appraisals himself—his staff typically managed that, and he was just here by chance at the end of the month for inventory.

The middle-aged man took the watch, casually glanced at it, then wrote a series of numbers on the store’s special paper, signed his name, stamped it, and handed it to Bill.

”Please proceed to the finance office to collect your payment.”

Seeing the numbers, Bill was so excited he nearly jumped for joy. ”This... Is this US Dollar?”

”That’s correct! Our store conducts business more fairly than any other on the street.”

”I know, I know...” Bill nodded excitedly. That’s why he came here, having heard the reputation. He never imagined this trip would yield such a reward.

Luckily, no one knew about the watch. If Julian found out, he’d regret it terribly.

Originally, he had been so reluctant to use such expensive medicine with that Eastern woman. Looking at it now, it truly was worth it, damn worth it.

”By the way, I have one more item.” In his excitement, Bill took out a silver necklace he had just gotten and hadn’t even warmed yet. He normally wouldn’t dare bring something so cheap to this store.

But since the Eastern woman could produce such an expensive watch, perhaps the ordinary silver necklace also had something extraordinary about it!

The middle-aged man, seeing the silver necklace, couldn’t help but feel irritated despite his good temperament.

As he was about to have Bill thrown out, he suddenly paused. He abruptly stood up from his chair, took a magnifying glass from the desk, and inspected the silver necklace closely.

At first glance, he was shocked.

He eagerly switched to a higher magnification lens, as if looking at something akin to God’s Cross, observing it with reverent attention. The more he looked, the more astonished and delighted he became.
