All it takes is uncovering one rare gemstone worth millions, and theyre set for life.
Why wouldnt they take the risk? She leaned in slightly, adding, The most famous case in modern history

That guy, as if blessed by luck itself, unearthed a gemstone worth over a billion dors from an
unassuming stone.
The news caused a worldwide sensation, even catching the attention of royalty from across the world. Francescas eyes sparkled with excitement,pletely captivated by the story.
A billion-dor gemstone? Thats incredible! Andrew, we should definitely try our luck with a few stonester, dont you think? Andrew smirked and teased, Didnt you just say that the risks were too high, and we shouldnt y? Blushing, Francescaughed awkwardly.
Well, we could just y with smaller stones
You know, for fun and to get a feel for it.
Andrew shrugged and smiled
Sure, if it seems interesting, why not? Elsie quickly chimed in with a word of caution.
Mr.
Lloyd, Ms.
Aicker, if you do y, make sure to avoid spending too much
If youe across stones priced in the hundreds of thousands or millions, just walk away.
Andrew grinned mischievously.
What if we happen to strike gold or rather, something even better? Wouldnt that be worth it? Elsie smiled politely but did not reply
While she acknowledged Andrews earlier sess in appraising antiques, she knew stone gambling required apletely different level of skill and expertise
It was not something that luck alone could carry you through, and she doubted Andrew would fare well in this arena
She hoped they had yed conservatively and avoided unnecessary losses.

The man hesitated before replying with a cautious smile.

Without batting an eye, Aspen replied, Put it on my card
Her effortless confidence turned heads, and murmurs spread through the crowd.
Once the payment was made, the cutter prepared to make the first incision.
