Chapter 261 There’s Nothing Left Now, It’s Over!

After saying that, Jane took the dirty bidding list and returned to the two areas to examine the raw

stones again. It was the same as before, and she couldn’t feel anything when she touched them.

However, she had to conceal her lack of knowledge, so she reluctantly went up

and touched all of them.

Jane couldn’t remember which stone she had seen before had jade in it. She could only rely on her

intuition and choose the ones that looked more appealing to add the missing numbers.

She assumed that even if she didn’t get them all right, she could somehow still get a few. Hence, she

spent over an hour hesitating before writing a new list. Then, she handed it to the staff, who placed it in

a folder in front of her.

After everyone had witnessed the spectacle, they dispersed.

Jebediah came back in time and was sweating profusely. When Jane saw no sign of June around him,

she couldn’t help but ask, “Where is she?”

Jebediah shook his head. “I couldn’t find her. She wasn’t caught in the surveillance footage. and we

didn’t see her go outside either. But we searched for a long time and asked people. None of them said

they saw her. We’ll continue searching inside. I also sent someone to guard the entrance. If she went

out, they would definitely spot her.”

Jane’s eyes were filled with menace as she grunted, “Hurry up and find her!”

This time, she also joined the search and actively checked all the women’s restrooms.

Eventually, they still couldn’t find her. Unwilling to believe Jebediah’s words, Jane even went to the

surveillance room again and had someone show her the footage. To her dismay, Jebediah was right.

The surveillance footage only showed June in the auction hall, and there was no trace of her outside at

all.

This was very strange.

Either someone tampered with the surveillance or someone used some mysterious ways to leave June

out of the footage.

“What do we do now?” asked jebediah

June frowned. Let’s report her missing at the police station Let’s tell them we suspect that

someone has kidnapped her

Simone was her greatest suspect

Jebediah nodded. “Okay.”

With that, they went to the nearby police station to report the incident. The police first recorded the

situation they described. Then, they asked for June’s phone number and tried. calling her. The phone

was connected, and someone answered it quickly. After hanging up the phone, the police looked

helplessly at Jane and Jebediah.

“Did you guys never think of calling to ask the person you’re looking for? She said she just wanted to

leave, so she left early. She wasn’t kidnapped at all.”

His statement left Jane and Jebediah stunned. It was true that they hadn’t called June. When they

couldn’t find her, their first reaction was that she wouldn’t answer the phone because she took the

opportunity to leave again. Who would have thought that she would actually answer

their call?

After they left the police station, Jane called June. Sure enough, it went through, and the other party

answered, “What’s up?” Jane didn’t expect this at all. “Are you back at the hotel already?”

June answered, “No, I just left. You guys should enjoy yourselves.”

Jane’s expression fell. “What do you mean?”

“I said it already. I don’t want to play with you guys anymore,” June replied coldly.

“Goodbye!” Jane was about to speak when she heard the call getting hung up. She was furious. How

dare she?!

She immediately called June again, but her number was blocked. June even blocked her social media

account when she checked.

Jebediah tried calling as well but was faced with the same situation.

Jane was certain that June had run away again. This time, it was most likely Simone who helped her

escape. However, whether it was surveillance evidence or witness testimony, she had none of them to

prove that June’s escape was related to Simone. Moreover, June was an adult, so even if she had run

away, they couldn’t intervene legally. They could only suppress their anger and return to the hotel.

The first thing Jane did after entering the room was to text a number that was not saved on her phone.

She mentioned what happened today but left out the issue regarding the hidden bid. Thinking that she

could still salvage the situation tomorrow, she merely asked the other party to send someone to find

June The other party agreed to do that for her and instructed. her not to make any more mistakes with

the hidden bid tomorrow

The next day, everyone went to the public auction. They sat down in the auction hall and waited. After a

while, one of the staff members went on stage to announce the results of the

2.1

hidden bids for each piece of raw material.

Simone had secretly bid over 200 pieces of raw materials and won 180 pieces. Zac followed suit and

bid on over 100 pieces and won 20. However, Felix’s luck wasn’t as good. He bid on over 100 pieces

but only won eight. Reich Group bid on nearly 5,000 pieces and won over 1,000. Eventually, it was

discovered that Fordson Jewelry had the biggest harvest. They bid on 3,000 pieces and won over

2,000. Undeniably, they also spent the most on the auction which cost them hundreds of millions.

Next was the process of appraising the stones. For this round, the public auction arranged up to as

many as 10 gemstone evaluators to appraise the stones.

Jane’s reputation had always been great. Moreover, she had secretly bid 3,000 pieces and won over

2,000 pieces, hence many people came to watch Fordson Jewelry’s stone appraisal, especially those

who had heard of Jane’s name before but had not seen her before. They were curious to find out how

talented she really was.

Unfortunately, the result was shocking. As each piece of raw material was appraised, they were all

revealed to be bad ones, just like the stones from yesterday’s open bid. What was even more shocking

was that these broken stones were not even jade, and their value was less than the marked price from

the secret bidding. None of them had raw jadeite in them. Jane couldn’t believe her eyes as she

watched each stone being appraised and revealing nothing.

She murmured, “How could this happen? It’s impossible!” She had bid on over 2,000 pieces, and not a

single one had jadeite. Were none of the numbers she had chosen happened to be correct? How could

her luck go so bad after being backfired? She grew even more furious. when she saw Felix, Simone,

and the rest successfully obtaining high-quality and premium. jadeite.

Jane felt utter disappointment because she had touched all of these raw jadeites before, but eventually,

they belonged to someone else.

She regretted even more why she hadn’t carefully checked the bidding list when she submitted it

yesterday.

As long as she submitted the original bid, the jadeites that were appraised would be hers.

Now, she had nothing left! Hundreds of millions had gone down the drain. How would she explain this

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

to her foster parents and the higher-ups at Fordson Jewelry? What about the premium jadeite that the

person wanted? She hadn’t obtained a single piece! How would she explain it? The more she thought

about it, feelings of regret and panic overwhelmed her.

Jebediah and the other members of Fordson Jewelry were equally dumbfounded.

This was something they had never expected. How could Jane not obtam a single piece of jadeite?

Even if they relied on luck and selected over 2,000 pieces, they should have been able to obtain a few,

shouldn’t they? What was happening? Did a complete failure just occur? Wasn’t Jane supposed to be

talented? Wasn’t she able to tell which piece of raw material contained. jadeite by just touching it?

Jebediah pulled a long face as he questioned her, “What’s going on now? You’ve ruined everything. It

cost us hundreds of millions!” Just mentioning it made him feel a sharp pain in

the chest.

On the other hand, the stone gambling experts of Fordson Jewelry pretended to be furious, but in their

hearts, they couldn’t help but feel elated.

One of the gambling experts who had been suppressed the most by Jane in the past two years felt

particularly delighted.

Looking at Jane sarcastically, he uttered, “Even though we, as useless gamblers, have completely

failed, I didn’t expect a genius like you to face the same situation!” Hearing that, the rest chimed in,

“He’s right. Not a single piece of jadeite was selected from so many raw materials. You’re truly

something, Miss Fordson.”

Even the higher-ups of Fordson Jewelry couldn’t hold back anymore.

Looking at Jane’s furious expression, someone questioned, “Miss Fordson, don’t you think you owe us

an explanation?” What was Jane up to? Not only did they not gain anything from the public auction, but

they also lost hundreds of millions.

This was the first time Fordson Jewelry had encountered such a situation in a public auction. Even the

worst gamblers in the past were able to obtain some raw materials that contained. jadeite.

Taking advantage of the situation, Tommy deliberately rubbed salt in her wound. “You are truly

impressive, Miss Fordson. This is what you get for threatening us. We didn’t expect to have a good

harvest, but you ended up with nothing. How amazing. I admire you!”

Jane couldn’t fathom the situation. Filled with anger and frustration, she found herself the center of

everyone’s amused attention, with questioning gazes intensifying her already agitated emotions.

Combined with the aftermath of the backlash earlier, she spat a mouthful of blood and lost

consciousness.
