The other party seemed a bit impatient and left in a hurry before Graham arrived. Before leaving, they specifically instructed the servant to take care of the box. saying. “Be careful and keep this box safe.”
This was given by Mr. Caldwell to Ms. Greene as a token of gratitude for saving his life. Mr. Caldwell said he hoped that Ms. Greene would take good care of it.
Winford went downstairs and saw that Bryson had already opened the box and taken out an antique–like jade pendant. He held it in his palm, flipping it over and over, with a playful expression on his face.
The jade pendant was worn with a red string, looking extremely exquisite. Even those who didn’t understand could tell at a glance that this jade was very precious, and ordinary people couldn’t afford to buy it.
