Chapter 734 He Couldn’t Be More Jealous

"Mrs. Green, what is it?"

"We'd better keep it a secret. You can go ask Maia."

Nicole grinned as she took the two emeralds. She seemed to be so hooked that she even couldn't put
them down.

"Mr. Jase, I'll take them."

"Just take them. I gift them to you."

"No. We agreed that we'll trade gifts."

Nicole smirked, amusement dancing in her eyes.

Seeing Nicole acting, Samuel couldn't help but grin as well. His gaze of affection was always fixed on
Nicole.

Jase could tell that he was flattering them right.

Since Samuel doted on Nicole so much, he wouldn't have to worry about their cooperation anymore.
These two emeralds paid off.

Jase was mentally rejoiced. He still remembered the treasure that Nicole left with Maia. Perhaps it was
more valuable than these two emeralds. After all, Nicole, Samuel's wife, should take something
equivalent.

Just as Jase was wondering what it was, Samuel asked, "Mr. Jase, I heard that you are a retired
soldier as well."



"Yes. But I'm incomparable to you. You are of noble birth. And I started from scratch. Compared with
you, my business is like a small trick."

Jase's words brought Samuel a faint smile.

"Don't mention it. We're the same. Mr. Jase, you know, my wife is fond of these stones. So, I hope we'll
have a chance to collaborate. I heard we can gamble on stones here. Why not have fun together?"

Samuel's suggestion fit in exactly with Jase's wishes.

"Of course, but Mr. Green, you know, gambling on stones depends on luck. Especially now that there
are few rough stones, whether you can succeed is not decided by money. You might have to be
mentally prepared."

Jase stated, afraid that Samuel would be irked by failing to get emerald.

But Nicole replied with a smile, "Mr. Jase, you know, money is the only thing that we can't use up now.
The oil fields in Eastern Europe can even support hundreds of people to live for decades. Even if we
fail in gambling, so what? Just have fun."

She appeared to be a woman who wasted money as a hobby.

Jase took a quick glance at Samuel. But Samuel was still gazing at Nicole with full affection. He felt
somewhat envious.

Sure enough, he who had wealth spoke louder than others.

"Mrs. Green, you are really straightforward."

"That's right. Compared with the treasure I left with Maia, the money spending on gambles is like a hair
of a bull's back. Isn't that right, honey?"



Honey? Samuel felt even his spine was melting.

"Yes."

Blinking, he fixed his eyes on Nicole, wishing he could fill her.

Nicole hurried to avoid his gaze, then turned to Jase, "There's no time like the present. Mr. Jase, why
don't we gamble on stones now?"

"Mr. Green...?"

Jase subconsciously turned to Samuel.

A smirk raised the corner of Samuel's mouth, "She holds the purse strings. And I do what she likes me
to. I'm just a worker and driver."

"You are good at joking. I've heard that Mr. and Mrs. Green are very much in love. Alright, let's go now.
The gambling on stones has already begun. I can handle procedures for you."

His words immediately cheered Nicole up.

Jase took the lead out of the house.

And Nicole followed closely behind. But she was pulled into Samuel's arms as a whisper came to her
ears, "Have fun?"

"Not bad. The fun hasn't begun yet."

Nicole winked.

Samuel chuckled and gave her a slight pinch on her nose, "Maia can't afford these two emeralds. Don't
you worry how she should deal with it?"



"Does it have anything to do with me? Why didn't she think of that when provoking me?"

Nicole wore a meaningful smile with her head tilted.

Samuel loved this look.

"Why don't I know you left a treasure with Maia? And it's equivalent to those two emeralds? You should
know they are of top quality. According to the market price, the rough stones of them almost reach up
to ten million, let alone such exquisite handicraft carvings."

Nicole couldn't help but chuckle, "She's Maia! The value that Maia can create is far more than these
two emeralds."

"You mean Maia is the treasure?"

"Maia is not a treasure!"

"Yes, she is not!"

Samuel burst into sniggers.

Until this moment did Nicole realize it had gone wrong. Seeing Samuel smug, she questioned, "Is it
funny?"

"Not bad!"

"Don't laugh!"

Nicole directly reached to his armpits.

"No! Stop. Stop!"



Samuel hurried to dodge, but Nicole did not let him go. Quietly observing them, Jase wore a confident
smile.

His subordinate whispered, "Mr. Jase, Mr. Green dotes on his wife too much. He doesn't look like an
heir of a large group at all."

"You are wrong. Samuel and Nicole have experienced many tribulations. Now, he might wish to offer
Nicole the whole world. As long as I flatter Nicole right, the Green's will be mine. She's so wasteful. We
should make her spend as much money as possible."

"Okay."

When they finished discussing, Samuel and Nicole had calmed down and walked over.

Nicole wore a smile as Samuel recovered to be aloof.

Jase didn't care that joke, either. He led them to the car and drove to the Gambling Street.

Everyone who dared to come to the Gambling Street was rich.

The Gambling Street might be the boundary of heaven and hell. Many people came here with great
wealth. But they might go bankrupt after only one or two gambles. On the other hand, some might
become millionaires overnight only because they bought a right stone.

This was the heaven on earth, as well as hell.

Seeing people here all in a hurry, Nicole was confused, "Isn't it the Stone Street? Why don't they stop
to take a look at the rough stones?"

"Mrs. Green, you know, the stalls outside are not worthy a look. Only ordinary citizens will come here.
We're going to the VIP zone. The sum of transaction there is up to millions."



Jase explained in patience, mentally smug about her ignorance.

Since it was the case, Nicole would spend much money here. And he, Jase, actually had more than
half of the shares in Stone Street.

"Oh, so it's like this. Then let's go over."

Nicole held Samuel's arm.

Jase led them to the front row, then handed them a number plate, which was used for bidding.

"Mrs. Green, you can pick a stone you like."

"But I'm a layman."

Samuel replied as soon as she finished speaking.

"It doesn't matter. It's enough that you are happy. You can buy whatever you like. At most, it's just about
spending a little money."

Jase's lips twitched.

A stone priced at dozens of cities! And it didn't matter? Anyway, Samuel just wanted Nicole to be
happy.

Sure enough, he who had wealth spoke louder than others.

Nicole planted a kiss on Samuel's cheek, "Honey, it's so nice of you. Alright, I will go pick one."

"Take your pick."

Nicole turned around and pointed at a huge one in leisure, "What about this one?"



"Alright, Mrs. Green, you still need to raise a price for it later. Its base price is 10 million."

"I see."

Nicole waved her hand and turned to Samuel, "Only ten million? The treasure I left with Maia is much
more valuable."

Frequent mentioning finally shook Jase up. He made a sign to his man.

One of his subordinates retreated.

Both Nicole and Samuel had seen it, but they pretended to be unaware.

The two of them started bidding, and they finally bid for 13 million.

Nicole required that the rough stone should be cut on the spot, which exactly met Jase's wish.

As the handyman cut, the emerald was exposed. However, it was not very pure and only worth five to
six million.

Without a doubt, Nicole stood a loss.

"Mrs. Green, I'm really sorry. I didn't help you earn the money."

Jase hurried to comfort her.

But Nicole waved her hand, "It doesn't matter. There is an emerald. Mr. Jase, please help me process it
and hand it to Maia to decorate that treasure. Anyway, it should increase the beauty of that."

However, Samuel's face darkened.

"That treasure doesn't need this emerald. It's already priceless."



Nicole could naturally tell Samuel's jealousy. A smile touched her mouth, "What about polish the
emerald and gift it to you?"

"Whatever you want."

Samuel turned his face away. But obviously, his look was much better.

What a jealous man!

Nicole mentally complained. Then, she smirked at Jase, "Mr. Jase, thank you."

"You're welcome!"

He hurried to take it and ordered his man to polish it. At the same time, he was more curious about that
treasure.

When Maia knew that Nicole and Samuel went to the Gambling Street with Jase instead of giving him a
problem, she went wild with anger. She wished to crash everything in the ward.

"Tim, you see, this is the woman you like. This is your friend, Samuel. You should rejoice that you are in
a coma. Otherwise, you must get mad now, right?"

Maia said in a huff. She gazed at Tim, who was lying on the sickbed, a mixed emotion filling her.

"Tim, can you hear me?"

Tim remained motionless.

Suddenly, a man opened the door.

"Who is there?"



Maia quickly turned around to see the man heading towards her.

"Who are you? What are you doing?"

Fear seized Maia.

The man stopped in front of Maia and whispered, "Ms. Maia, I am Mr. Jase's man. Mr. Jase asked me
to get the treasure that Mrs. Green left with you."

"What treasure? I don't know!"

Maia was dumbfounded. Unfortunately, the other party did not believe her at all.
