Ideal Stone
Ever since Elise learned about stone gambling from Alexander in Aris the last time, she couldn’t stop
thinking about it. Of course, she wouldn’t miss such a great opportunity now that he had brought it up
voluntarily.
‘Of course! Where?’
Seeing her response, he sent her the coordinates. ‘Let’s go take a look at 10.00AM tomorrow.’
With that, she sent him an okay emoji.
Then, he closed his laptop and stretched his back. Gazing at the starry night sky outside the window,
he got up and walked to the balcony. At that moment, he didn’t know what was happening to him.
Every time he had nothing to do, he would think of Elise. His chest would ache a little as he recalled
how she and Danny talked and laughed happily.
Narrowing his eyes, he tried to get it out of his head. It seems that I’m not busy enough. I should find
more things to do.
The next day, Elise and Danny headed to class together. In her mind, all she could think of was
checking out the new batch of stones with Alexander at 10.00AM later. Hence, she came up with an
excuse to ask the teacher for a day off.
Mr. Winfrey looked at her and advised earnestly, “Though your foundation’s good, it isn’t good asking
for days off so frequently. You should focus more on your studies.”
Cheekily, she replied, “I know, Mr. Winfrey. I’ll take note of that.”
In truth, he had high hopes for Elise, and he could see that she was losing focus. However, he couldn’t
do much about it, so he warned, “This will be the last time I approve your application for leave this
semester.”
We’re halfway through the semester already, so I only have another half left that I can’t apply for leave.
It shouldn’t be a problem, she thought. Hence, she agreed unhesitatingly.
Right after, she exited the campus with the leave application. This time, she was fully prepared with a
spare set of clothes. She changed into them in a public washroom, and by the time she came out, she
had a completely new look. She was now Sare. Staring at her reflection in the mirror, she checked if
everything looked alright before booking a taxi to meet Alexander.
Athesea’s stone gambling market wasn’t big, and there was only one street that had a stone shop. As
soon as she arrived, she sent Alexander a message. In less than two minutes, a black Maybach
stopped right in front of her. “Get in.”
Though she was puzzled, she opened the door and hopped into the car.
“Aren’t we going to check out the stones? Where are we going?”
“You won’t be able to find any good stones here. I’m taking you to an exclusive seller.”
Alexander drove along another path and passed by the stone gambling street. After a five-minute drive,
the car finally stopped at the entrance of an old-fashioned courtyard.
“Come. Let’s get out of the car.”
Confused, she unbuckled her seatbelt and looked around. There was barely anyone there, making the
place seem deserted.
“Go in,” he walked up to her and said. Then, she pointed at the mansion and asked, “There?”
After humming a reply, he led the way. In spite of her perplexity, she placed her trust in him and
followed along.
The mansion was huge, with a pond in the foyer. After walking toward the end of the corridor along the
pond, they finally reached the living room.
“Welcome, Mr. Griffith,” the servant greeted respectfully. With a slight nod, he informed, “I’m here to
take a look at the stones. Is Mr. Jordan here today?”
“He’s in the backyard; so are the stones. I’ll escort you there,” the servant responded.
With that, Elise and Alexander followed the servant to the backyard. When they reached, the quiet
mansion had suddenly turned lively. Many people were gathered in the backyard, carefully examining
and choosing the stones.
“This stone seems nice. What’s your price, Mr. Jordan?”
“It isn’t worth much. I’ll sell it to you for half a million dollars if you like it.”
Hearing this, the customer seemed satisfied. “Sure, I’ll take it! Please ask the craftsman to open it.”
“Please make your payment this way, Mr. Lewis. I’ll find a skilled craftsman to have it opened for you.”
Jordan nodded.
After escorting Mr. Lewise out, Jordan made his way toward Alexander and Elise and welcomed them.
“Welcome, Mr. Griffith. Who’s this?”
“She’s my friend, Miss Sare,” Alexander introduced.
She greeted Jordan, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Jordan.”
“This way, please, Miss Sare!”
Jordan brought them over to a batch of stones and introduced, “These stones were just shipped over
this morning. They’re in good condition, and the probability of containing jadeite is pretty high. You’re a
regular customer here who knows the market, and we’ve gotten used to your practice. What kind of
stone are you looking for today?”
“I’ll take a look first,” Alexander said instead.
Knowing Alexander’s temperament, Jordan replied, “You two take a look around. Call me if you need
anything.”
As soon as Jordan left, Alexander turned to Elise. “Give it a try. Let’s see if you have a good eye.”
Understanding that the stones here would cost at least 300,000, her mindset shifted. It would be a
waste to buy a 300,000-dollar stone for practice.
“Let me take a look first since I’m not in a hurry to buy,” she responded as she examined the stones.
The stones were in different shapes and sizes, with distinctive shades of color. She didn’t dare to
choose because she knew very little about stone gambling. Thus, she pulled Alexander over and
asked, “Why don’t you choose one?”
He turned and gazed at her. “I have a rule when picking stones here. I only choose once and will not
choose a second time no matter what.”
She had heard of this rule before. Though some stone gamblers loved stone gambling, they were good
at self-control and would never make another reckless purchase after buying an inferior stone. They
would also never throw money just because they found good stones containing jadeite. Instead, they
would trust their instincts and buy the stone that they fancy at first glance.
“Did you find a stone that you like?”
Taking a look at the stones, he answered, “No.”
She bit her lip upon hearing this and took him to another pile of stones. After looking around, she found
a stone with a slightly darker color. Thinking that it was a good choice, she asked, “What do you think
of that one?”
With a quick look, he stated, “It looks dull. Besides, the chances of it containing jadeite is low since it’s
placed at such an isolated spot. Stones like this are generally quite cheap.”
