Chapter 654: The Value of the Gift

Dallas shook his head and said with a smile, “Miss Cole, dont say that.

Were doing this for your own good! Think about it.

Youre being so nice to Lucas, and you defend him all the time.

But if he really gives you a gift worth only a few hundred bucks, thatll be enough to show that you dont mean much to him at all! Are you sure you want to continue letting such a man fool you”

Nate took the opportunity to chime in, “Thats right, Alexis.

Dont be fooled by this man.

How about this The diamond ring I just gave you costs a million dollars, and its also a symbol of my devotion to you.

The receipt is in my car, and I can bring it over for everyone to see at any time.

“But since you said that you like Lucas, his gift for you as your boyfriend should at least not be any worse than mine, right, everyone”

Some gossipmongers in the hall who enjoyed watching drama immediately yelled loudly, “Thats right! If his gift to Alexis as her boyfriend is less valuable than Nates gift, I think she should get a new boyfriend!”

“Haha, that makes sense! In the past, people used to say that its the thought that counts.

But if a man isnt even willing to spend money on his girlfriend, he shouldnt be called a man at all!”

“Thats right.

Hurry up and let us see what you got Miss Cole!”

Amid the uproar and commotion, Dallas looked at Lucas sneeringly and said condescendingly, “Based on how shabby you look, I bet you cant afford any decent gift, let alone one comparable to Nates! If you can present a gift more expensive than Nates diamond ring, Ill kneel on the ground and lick your shoes!

“Likewise, if you cant, then you will kneel on the ground to lick my, no, Nates shoes.

How about that Hahaha!” Dallas guffawed arrogantly.

“What did you say!” Alexis flew into a rage and was just about to lose her temper when Lucas suddenly reached out to stop her.

He looked at Dallas and drawled, “Thats what you said.

If my gift is more expensive than Nates, youll get on your knees and lick my shoes, huh”

With a contemptuous smile on his face, Dallas said, “Thats right.

Thats what I said! But if your gift is worse than Nates, you will kneel in front of Nate and lick his shoes!”

They didnt keep their volumes down, and the people around them could hear their conversation clearly.

Soon, this exciting bet spread throughout the entire banquet hall.

Kneeling on the ground and licking someones shoes was definitely an incredible bet!

In an instant, the crowd around them came closer to see the final outcome.

“Fine, since you want to lick my shoes so much, Ill fulfill your wish!” Lucas looked at Dallass face and suddenly smiled.

Seeing his smile, Dallas felt his heart sink.

Lucas appeared completely confident about winning.

Whats going on

Surely he cant produce a gift worth more than Nates, can he

In fact, the families of these scions were indeed rich.

But the wealth and assets belonged to their families, and they were only given a small portion.

For example, Dallas had only about two million dollars in liquid funds.

The rest was in real estate and other immovable assets.

So his gift for Alexis was only a crystal sculpture worth a little over a hundred thousand dollars.

Besides, most of the gifts of their peers ranged from tens of thousands to a few hundred thousand dollars.

Dallas was certain that no one would be able to give Alexis a million-dollar gift like Nate did.

Once he thought of Nates ability and financial power, Dallas was finally relieved.

“Punk, stop bragging.

Hurry up and show the gift to everyone!” Dallas urged impatiently.

Lucas stopped speaking and simply took out his gift.

When the exquisite gift box with the two wordsHeavenly Pavilion appeared in front of everyone, Dallass face instantly turned pale.

“Hah.

Even if its something from the Heavenly Pavilion, that cant prove its expensive.

After all, the items on display on the first floor of the Heavenly Pavilion are specially meant for bottom feeders trying to look rich! The items sold there are a few hundred dollars.

Who knows whats in your box” Dallas even smirked contemptuously.

Lucas simply ignored him and handed the gift box to Alexis beside him.

“This is a set of emerald jewelry I chanced upon.

I think it suits you well, so I bought it as a gift for you.

Open it and see if you like it.” Lucas smiled.

Alexis took the gift box curiously, opened it, and immediately beamed with joy and surprise.

“Wow, its so beautiful!”

The set of emerald jewelry Lucas had chosen was carved from the same piece of top-quality emerald, and it included a necklace, two bracelets, and two earrings.

The emerald was highly transparent and carved exquisitely, making them extraordinary pieces.

In particular, they were now glistening under the light and emitting an ethereal aura.

The color and style were very much to Alexiss liking.

The crowd, craning their necks to watch, exclaimed in amazement.

“What a beautiful set of emerald jewelry! The color and transparency are so beautiful!”

“Ahhhhh! Ive been telling my mom that emeralds look better on older people and that its not popular among young people.

But now, I eat my words.

This set of emerald jewelry is gorgeous! It totally suits young women like us! Look at the transparency and color.

Its so mesmerizing!”

“I saw this set of emerald jewelry in the Heavenly Pavilion before, and I remember that it cost over a million dollars!”

“What Its more than a million dollars It doesnt seem to have required much material.

This is really expensive!”

“The material is not the issue.

The key depends on the quality of emerald and the workmanship! If the shape and design are ordinary, they may not be worth much.

This set of emerald jewelry is so beautiful that even Im tempted! If I had known, I would have asked my father to buy it for me!”

Many people, especially women who loved jewelry, wouldnt be able to resist their desire for beautiful gemstones and jewelry.

Many of them were speculating and discussing the value of the emerald jewelry.

After Dallas heard the price, his face twitched vigorously before turning sullen immediately.

Next to him, Nate felt extremely furious.

He initially thought that his gift, which was worth more than a million dollars, was already extremely expensive.

But he didnt expect Lucass gift to be even more expensive than his!
