Chapter 772

"I'm sorry, sir, but we’re not selling this. Our manager was not clear about this. I apologize for wasting

your precious time!"

It was evident that the beautiful manager before him was slightly unhappy, but she knew that not any

person could think of buying the Heart of the Abyss. That was why she flashed a radiant smile at Fane.

"Ma'am, this man here is offering us 20 billion bucks. That’s why I wanted to ask you about this. He’s

offering a huge sum. What if the people up top consider selling i t? I was afraid that you would pin the

blame on me if we missed the opportunity!"

Store Manager Lowe's eyes flickered toward Manager Lynch's. He spoke hesitantly.

20 billion?'

Naturally, Manager Lynch was surprised when she heard this number. Her lips parted. This man was

offering too much.

This was just a necklace. Was it worth it to spend that much money on it?

The necklace was very beautiful though. Any woman would like it.

"Can you make the decision. Manager Lynch?"

Fane gave a wan smile. "I simply must obtain this necklace!" he added.

"I-I'll ask the boss at our headquarters. I'll immediately video call him!”

Manager Lynch gulped and whipped her phone out. She immediately video called her boss.

"Heh. Miss Lynch, why are you video calling me? We're going to put the Heart of the Abyss on display

tomorrow. Make sure that you perform your bodyguard duties well, all right? We cannot afford a single

mistake!"

An old man with frazzled hair sat on the other end of the line. He chuckled as he spoke, and he looked

very approachable.

"Boss, we have a customer here who wants to buy the Heart of the Abyss..."

Manager Lynch looked at Fane, who stood behind her. She angled the phone so that h e appeared on

the screen as well.

The smile on the old man's face instantly hardened. "Miss Lynch, the Abyss is worth nine billion, but

didn't I say that its value is worth far more than that?" he answered. " There's only one of its kind in the

entire world. Besides, the Heart of the Abyss is our treasure. It's not for sale. We won't be able to find

anything to replace it anytime soon. More importantly, this is what we use to promote our store!"

Manager Lynch reacted quickly, as though she understood something. "So what you're saying is that

the Heart of the Abyss holds unparalleled value, right, Boss? Including the advertisements and being

out signature product!"

The old man nodded his head. He smiled towards Fane. “First of all, sir, I thank you very much for

showing interest in our products, and for admiring the Heart of the Abyss so much. But we cannot

simply sell this to you...”

Manager Lynch pondered for a while, then she cut in before the old man could finish his sentence: "But

this man is offering us 2 0 billion bucks, Boss. Are you sure you don’t want to consider his offer?"

The old man on the phone creased his brows, obviously considering the offer.

After a while, he gave a bitter smile. "I'm sorry, sir..."

Fane realized that 20 billion was not enough to persuade the old man, considering how he rejected the

offer.

"30 billion!"

Fane took a step forward and told the old man.

The old man was taken aback for a moment. "Sir, you’re really making this difficult for us. There is

implicit value in that necklace..."

”40 billion!"

Fane offered again.

"But..."

The old man was growing speechless...

"50 billion!"
