Matteo was stunned. Mr. Cannon?
Could it be...
His heart began to tremble. He turned around and found that Spencer's expression had changed all of a sudden. He became extremely respectful as he repeated, "Mr. Cannon, why are you here?"
Spencer was facing Chuck who had a smirk on his face!
Matteo was utterly shocked!
He had known Spencer for many years and he knew that Spencer was a retired mercenary. He led a group of fierce men and was afraid of nothing!
He had worked with Spencer several times, and Spencer did a very good job for each assignment. He knew Spencer's capability, but he was so polite to that person?
He even addressed him as Mister?
It felt like a double blow to Matteo. He was stunned!
Furthermore, Spencer just mentioned that he was working for a person who had killed dozens of his men and had bought three pieces of the Imperial Green Jadeite...
Was that the same person he just met in the store?
In an instant, Matteo broke out in a cold sweat.
The man in the store admitted that it was him earlier, but he did not believe him...
Matteo started sweating!
Rumors had spread in the industry that the man who bought the three pieces of the Imperial Green Jadeite was a filthy rich person!
Otherwise, how could someone be so bold as to spend one billion dollars on three raw stones that no one thought highly of?
Even he himself did not dare do that!
If it caused him a huge loss, he would be extremely distressed!
Furthermore...
There was also surprising news that the two big bosses, who had the same status as him, died after the auction that night...
Who could have killed them?
No one in their circle of friends was sure because it was such shocking news!
There was also a brief moment of panic among the circle of friends!
There was a reasonable explanation for the news that was going around. Apparently, the two bosses had evil intentions as they were jealous, and had hired someone to kill the young man with the three pieces of the Imperial Green Jadeite. However, they were instead killed by this young man...
That rumor flashed across Matteo's mind. The more he thought about it, the more he broke out in a cold sweat!
Was it him?
That person turned out to be right here in his store. He even mentioned that he wanted to buy his store, but he rejected him...
Matteo's face turned pale.
Sergio, Wina and Libby were astonished!
They did not know Spencer. But what did he mean by addressing Chuck as Mr. Cannon?
Quinn was shocked. What actually had happened to Chuck?
Just what has he been up to recently?
"I'm here to buy something." Chuck shrugged.
"Buy something? Mr. Cannon, what do you want to buy? I know the boss here. He can give it to you as a gift!" Spencer waved at Matteo.
Matteo was dumbfounded and confused.
"Give it to me as a gift? No, I wanted to buy it but he refused to sell it," Chuck said.
"He refused?"
Spencer was astonished. He walked over and said, "Matteo, what are you doing? Why wouldn't you sell it to Mr. Cannon?"
"He... he really bought the three pieces of the Imperial Green Jadeite?" Matteo’ s voice became coarse.
"Yes, he did!"
Matteo felt even more uneasy.
"Matteo, don't blame me for not telling you this. Pedro asked me to kill him that night. I took more than 20 men with me, but he killed them all in one minute..."
"What?" Matteo was extremely shocked!
He looked so young, how could he be so powerful?
