Chapter 1035
The other people occupying the table were dumbfounded by this turn of events.

of ten accuracy and with that, you‘re the undisputed winner!”

The host personally delivered the embroidery to Odell and congratulated him again, “Master Carter, congratulations.”
Odell eyed Sylvia. “Give it to my wife.”
The host quickly swerved in Sylvia‘s direction and presented the work of embroidery to her.
“Thank you.” Sylvia accepted it with a gracious smile.
It was truly a fine handiwork of a master embroiderer. It looked even more enchanting at a close distance.
Sylvia wagered that she would not be able to parallel such a masterful work even if she had woven away for a lifetime.
Sylvia was not the only one amazed by the work. Even Flint, who was resting snugly in Odell‘s arms, seemed to
be interested in the embroidery and crawled over to Sylvia with his hands eagerly swatting at the embroidery.
Sylvia let Flint touch it briefly before gently removing his hand from the work.

While she was still enamored by the wonderful artifact, Odell‘s magnetic voice suddenly echoed inside her ears. “Sylvia, come
home with me tonight.”
Sylvia could feel her ears burning up along with her cheeks.
She formed her lips into a straight line and tried to ignore him.
Odell observed the way she blushed and said, “I‘ll take that for a
yes.”
Sylvia kept her lips zipped.
Odell smiled playfully.
Meanwhile, John was handed the runner–up prize, a wonderful sparkling diamond necklace.
The diamond was carved into the shape of a petal. It was remarkable and unique.
He placed it on his palms to feel the weight, then he turned to Sherry.
Sherry was silently staring at the sparkling diamond.
As she gazed into the brilliant gem, even her eyes
seemed to sparkle with the same radiance. It seemed like she was captivated by the beauty of the gemstone.
John made a look and asked, “Do you like it?”
Sherry blinked.
Of course, she liked it. Even a layman could tell that the diamond was worth a fortune. Who would not be drawn to such a priceless treasure?
John noted his silence and remarked, “I‘ll just throw it away if
you don‘t like it.”
This seemed to draw Sherry‘s attention so she immediately blurted out, “I like it, I do.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJohn smirked and tossed the diamond necklace away out of nowhere.
The shining diamond necklace flew into the air in a rainbow arc before falling into the box it was originally placed in.
The staff member holding the box was caught by surprise.
John suddenly turned to the staff member and said with a charming smile, “It‘s yours now.”
The staff member‘s eyes glowed with excitement and thanked John fervently, “Thank you, Master Stockton!”
Then, she promptly left with her unexpected gift.
Sherry was speechless.
Her face was frozen with shock
John stared at her with a wry smile.
She gritted her teeth. “Master Stockton, I‘ve never seen someone as full of himself as you.”
She had never seen anyone as despicable as he was!
John chuckled softly. He was hardly offended by such a rude statement and raised his hand to
pat her head before telling her, “I wouldn‘t want to waste something as precious as that on the likes of you.”
Sherry chuckled dryly. She suddenly clenched her hands into a fist.
She swung hard at his smug face, only to have her momentum completely cut off when he grabbed her fist mid–air.
