The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 102

Nevertheless, Mr. Quinton was completely different. This was because he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, seeing as he came from a famous second-generation rich family. He had not experienced any shortage of money ever since he was born. 1

Zachary did not want to offend Mr. Quinton, but he did not want to break the rules for antique trade either, and so, he continued looking at Charlie, hoping that the latter would change his mind.

Charlie knew that Zachary was pleading with him, but he simply ignored his plea and replied coolly, "No." 1

Zachary was left utterly helpless and could only sit on the ground and grunt in case Mr. Quinton kicked him again. 1

"Look at how useless you are!"

Mr. Quinton yelled as he scowled at Zachary. After that, he glanced at Charlie before saying arrogantly," You bought this pebble for three hundred dollars? I will pay you thirty thousand dollars if you give it to m e!" i

The people who had crowded around them exhaled loudly as soon as they heard Mr. Quinton's words, only able to look at Charlie with an envious expression on their faces, s

He had bought the pebble for a mere three hundred

dollars, and now, the price of the pebble had already increased by a hundred times in just a matter of minutes! This was clearly a very profitable deal for Charlie.

Furthermore, anyone could tell that the owner of the stall had obviously picked up the pebble from a river o r by the beach because there were thousands of similar-looking pebbles around those areas. 2

Jacob was also very excited when he heard Mr. Quinton's offer. After all, Charlie would be able to make a profit from this sale, and he would be able to make up for the money that he had lost to the owner 0 f the stall yesterday. 5

However, Charlie raised his head and smiled at Mr. Quinton before replying, "As I have already told you earlier, I am not selling this pebble. Even if you pay m e three hundred thousand dollars, I am still not selling this pebble to you." 3

"You!"

The expression on Mr. Quinton’s face immediately turned ugly as anger flashed in his eyes. 4
