Without hesitation, the entourage ran up to the third floor. It didn’t take long for him to return, holding a dazzling blue diamond that weighed ten carats. The brilliant blue light filled the hall and blinded everyone’s eyes.
Everyone went crazy.
Apollo, with a net worth of over 50 billion dollars and being the largest jewelry dealer in Southern Territory, actually bent down ninety degrees to apologize to a young man!
He took out a blue diamond and apologized sincerely and devoutly!
But when you think about it, he is a Great Grandmaster who deserves such flattery!
“Mr. Clark, everything was my fault. I was ignorant of your power and did not recognize your greatness. Please accept my apology!”
Apollo held the blue diamond in both hands respectfully as he presented it before Flynn.
“Do you want it?” Flynn turned his head towards Scarlet and asked.
“What?” Scarlet was stunned for a moment before quickly shaking her head, “No way! It’s too valuable; I dare not accept it. You keep it!”
Flynn responded with an “Oh” sound before saying indifferently, “I’m not interested in jewelry either; since you don’t want it either, let’s stick to our original agreement – break his legs!”
Boom!
Apollo was scared out of his wits.
Flynn had indeed said that he would break Apollo’s legs earlier! If he really did so now, there would be no escape for him because Carolina wouldn’t be able to save him!
Freddie finally understood what had happened by this point; he stomped on Apollo while shouting, “Big brother, do you even know where that ring came from? If you know anything about its origin, then speak up already!”
Jewelry King also realized what was going on at this point; he nodded quickly while pleading with Scarlet, “Miss, please take this gemstone as your own; I beg of you! Otherwise the Great Grandmaster will break my legs!”
Scarlet quickly stopped Flynn and took the blue diamond from him, saying, “I want it, can’t I have it? Weren’t you here to inquire about the origin of the gem? Let Mr. Jenkins make amends!”
She was on the verge of going crazy as well.
This guy was too violent. Even Apollo had sincerely apologized, yet he still wanted to break his leg.
If she didn’t take it, wouldn’t she be complicit in his cruelty?
Flynn felt helpless.
Indeed, women only slowed down the process of drawing their guns.
“Alright! Go ahead and tell me,” Flynn said.
Apollo dismissed the others and said to Flynn, “Great Grandmaster, the gem on your diamond ring is called the Dragon Blood Gem.”
“It was discovered 1, 600 years ago in the West Haralu mine and was presented to the ruler of Shelon Kingdom, James Young. After the Shelon Kingdom was destroyed, it disappeared in a great fire.”
“Thirty years ago, it resurfaced in Pelens and was owned by a man with a black dragon head tattoo on his hand.”
“Another black dragon head tattoo!” Flynn’s eyes narrowed upon hearing this.
Apollo asked, “Great Grandmaster, have you heard of this person before?”
Flynn shook his head. “Do you know his name?”
“I don’t know! Thirty years ago, I was just a jeweler. I happened to see a picture of the Dragon Blood Gem and was captivated by it.”
“That blood-red color is so rare, unique in the world. Any other gem would pale in comparison. It took me several years of searching to find out this much.”
“But rest assured, I believe I’m not the only one interested in the Dragon Blood Gem. Others may have more detailed information. I will go back and inquire thoroughly for you.”
Flynn nodded.
All the clues pointed to the man with the black dragon head tattoo. He had appeared in Pelens.
Although his identity still wasn’t clear, at least there was a general direction.
At that moment, a group of people entered the hall.
Flynn turned to look and saw Orion.
He also spotted Flynn and hurriedly ran over with a playful smile, saying, “Boss, did you come to buy jewelry?”
This scene surprised Apollo once again.
Orion knew Flynn!
Flynn didn’t pay attention to Orion and commanded, “Find a few reliable people and go to Pelens to investigate the man with the black dragon head tattoo on his hand.”
Orion was momentarily stunned but quickly nodded.
Lilia’s banquet was about to begin, and Flynn didn’t linger. He held Scarlet’s waist and left the hotel.
“Mr. Jenkins, this is amazing! You actually know our boss. Oh, by the way, why is your face so pale?” Orion furrowed his brows.
“Hi! I won’t hide it from you, Mr. Kennedy. I almost had my leg broken by Mr. Clark just now!” Apollo sighed heavily and explained the situation.
“Oh my! Mr. Jenkins, you’re really lucky! It’s a good thing the boss is in a good mood, otherwise, you’d be finished!”
“And, now that we’re brothers, there’s something I won’t hide anymore. Actually, the boss is even more terrifying than the Great Grandmaster…”
Orion leaned closer and whispered, revealing Flynn’s true identity.
What!
King of the Underworld!
Apollo was directly frightened and fell to the ground.
He couldn’t even lift himself up!
He had heard rumors about a big shot on Demon Island while constantly shuttling between major noble families.
But he never expected to encounter a real person here!
King of the Underworld, that was a taboo!
Even discussing it privately was an act of defiance!
Never in his wildest dreams did Apollo imagine that Flynn was even more terrifying than he had imagined!
“Mr. Kennedy, from today onwards, you are my dear younger brother. You must help me curry favor with him, alright? I’m begging you!” Apollo tightly held Orion’s hand, his hands trembling with excitement.
After learning Flynn’s true identity, Apollo regretted even more. He regretted it to the point where he wanted to stab himself a few times.
Damn it, I’m so despicable!
How could I offend such a divine figure!
He was filled with fear and regret.
Fortunately, he had a stroke of luck today. Otherwise, if the King of the Underworld had slapped him with the back of his hand, he could only accept his misfortune!
Apollo’s anxious behavior caused Freddie and the others to furrow their brows.
“What’s wrong, boss? Why are you acting like a scared little kid?” Orion patted his back and chuckled.
“Mr. Jenkins, don’t worry. As long as you don’t touch the boss’s sore spot, he’s no different from an ordinary person.”
“Didn’t you want to apologize? Let me give you a suggestion. Since you’ve brought a few female celebrities with you to Niarak, why not have them serve the boss well?”
Apollo expressed his concerns, “Orion, is this reliable? Will the King of the Underworld get angry?”
Orion waved his hand dismissively, “Apollo, didn’t I tell you? The boss is no different from an ordinary person. They’re all men, you know!”
“He’s righteous when he needs to be and unscrupulous when he doesn’t, hehe…”
“I see!” Apollo regained his confidence and laughed, “The female celebrities I brought this time are all A-listers. I have shares in their entertainment companies.”
“It’s just a matter of ordering them to serve. They can even kneel down to lick his boots!”
Orion remained noncommittal.
Although these female celebrities were usually held in high regard and were the dream girls of countless men, in Apollo’s eyes, they were no different from pets.
“Those ladies are already attending Lilia’s banquet. I’ll call them later!”
“Tell them to clean up and send them all to your club!”
…
Meanwhile, at Mellow Gorge Hotel.
The parking lot was filled with luxury cars, and numerous celebrities dressed in their finest attire entered the venue.
Lilia was undoubtedly the most dazzling star among the crowd. She wore a wine-red gown that accentuated her graceful figure, and her exquisite makeup made her beautiful face even more stunning.
She moved through the crowd with a wine glass in hand, chatting with Braiden, her smile never fading.
Today was the official release of the Ancient Formula Returning Heart Pill.
Lilia was full of confidence and arrogance.
Madeline was also present, wearing a white gown that showcased her fair skin as she chatted with several entrepreneurs.
Rose, on the other hand, wore a black evening dress that hugged her figure perfectly, accentuating her slender waist. Her dress had a high-low hemline, revealing a pair of flawless, long legs.
Half an hour had passed, but Flynn still hadn’t arrived.
“What is he doing?!” Rose raised her wrist and checked her watch with a hint of annoyance.
At that moment, seven or eight women with exquisite makeup entered the hall.
“Wow! Isn’t that Averie Hill from Sunlight Entertainment? She’s a top-tier A-list actress!”
“Raelyn Sampson, Helen Mcguire, Ashley Lewis… Oh my god, they’re all A-list celebrities! Did Lilia invite them?”
“The Jewelry King is hosting a jewelry exhibition in Niarak, and they must have been invited by Lilia to attend!”
Averie was used to people’s astonishment and paid no attention to it. She walked straight toward Rose.
Looking down on her, she arrogantly said, “You’re Rose, right?”
“I heard your scars on your face were healed by a miraculous medicine. How much of that medicine do you have left? Name your price, I’ll buy it all!”
