Chapter 4 Was It So Valuable

Next to her, Wilson coughed slightly. Selina paused for a moment and looked at the smile in Mrs. Theseus's eyes.

Today was her birthday and she was sick. If she refute Vivian, Mrs. Theseus would probably be embarrassed.

"Selina wants to say that this painting is interesting."

Wilson took her words and pulled the corner of her clothes to let her sit down.

However, to her surprise, Vivian smiled and asked, "Sister, you must have prepared some special gifts for visiting grandma from afar. Take them out quickly and let us have a look. "

When Selina came in, Vivian noticed that the girl was carrying a rag bag. Vivian thought that she might even take out a piece of bread later.

She was poor and dared to say that the painting was fake. Today she would make Selina lose face.

Sure enough, as soon as she asked, Selina was stunned.

As soon as Vivian finished speaking, Selina took out a black box from her canvas bag and handed it to Mrs. Theseus. "Grandma, here is a... pill. My grand... grandfather said this... this can help you recover."

She stuttered so many words, which made her very uncomfortable.

If I didn't want that Wilson to call off the engagement as soon as possible, I wouldn't have been tortured like this. Selina thought.

Compared with the famous painting sent by Vivian, someone stared at this inconspicuous box and showed disdain. "I've heard for the first time that medicine is sent for birthday. It's too ominous."

"That's right. You even took some pills to keep healthy. Did you plagiarize the formula of the famous doctor Julie's health care pills?"

"Yes, you're right. Everyone knows the doctor's pill. This must be a fake one." Vivian and her mother looked at each other and scolded in a low voice, "Idiot!"

It was her birthday and she sent medicine to her. Isn't she cursing Mrs. Theseus?

As expected, country girls were not presentable and would only make mistakes.

However, when everyone was holding their breath and waiting for Mrs. Theseus to get mad, she suddenly choked with sobs while holding the box in her hand. "Selina, is this medicine made by your grandfather?"

Selina nodded solemnly. Mrs. Theseus's eyes turned red again. She took Selina's hand and said, "Okay, okay. It's hard for your grandfather to concern me. He still remembers my old bone. He gave me such a precious gift. Thank you."

"Then grandma... remember... take it on time."

Under the incredulous eyes of the crowd, Selina said seriously.

Among the guests, a famous collector named Aaron came forward and bowed to her. "Mrs. Theseus, can I have a look at the box in your hand?"

Mrs. Theseus nodded with a smile and handed the box to him.

He took the box carefully and studied it carefully for a while, showing a surprised expression.

"Mrs. Theseus, no wonder you said this gift was valuable. This box is made of first-class ebony, and the craftsmanship on it is also ingenious. It's rare to see it. How about I pay 30 million dollars and you sell this box to me?"

Aaron was a fan of the collection. He didn't care about etiquette when he saw good things.

Mrs. Theseus's face froze. She couldn't help but go to see Selina again because it was a gift from her.

"If you think 30 million is not enough, how about 50 million? Don't worry. I will return the precious pills in the box as soon as possible!" The price went up by 20 million. Everyone present, including Vivian, and her mother, became restless.

A box was worth 50 million. How expensive was the medicine in it?

Hundreds of millions of dollars?

"Mr. Aaron, are you sure? Is this thing worth 50 million?" Mrs. Lorry looked at Selina in surprise. She even suspected that this Aaron was bought off by Selina in advance.

But it was known to all that he liked collecting.

With a long face, Vivian said, "Mr. Aaron, my sister is from the countryside. She has never seen so much money. Please don't make fun of her."

However, he couldn't take his hands off the box in his hand. Regardless of what others said, he just looked at Selina and said, "Miss Selina, how about you make a price?"

Selina was surprised. Was it so valuable?

It was just a box made of black wood. She didn't even bother to look at the things in her grandfather's warehouse.

Raising her eyebrows, she looked at Mrs. Theseus, who was sitting at the main guest seat. "You'd better ask... my... grandmother."

He came to celebrate the birthday of Mrs. Theseus Seeing that he liked it, she couldn't refuse him. In the end, they sold the box to him at the price of 30 million dollars.

At first, everyone thought it was just a joke. When Aaron sent the check of 30 million to her, everyone, including Wilson, looked at Selina with a complicated expression in their eyes.

Wilson leaned over quietly to see what was in the canvas bag in her hand. Selina noticed it, she covered his eyes with her hand.

Wilson got bored and teased, "Tell me, did you collude with that Aaron in advance?"

She had gone all out to marry him. Did she think that he could look up to her just because she was in the limelight?

Huh...
