Chapter 1629 Three Treasures
"We have to go to the city center," said Lillian, interpreting her parents' intentions from their sudden
appearance.
Without changing her expression, Lillian raised her glass in congratulations to Selena.
"Congratulations," she said calmly.
Selena smiled and accepted the toast with composure.
Hattie looked up at Selena, remembering how she had said goodbye to her before. She knew that
Selena had already decided to leave the capital since then. Now it was just a matter of when she would
leave.
Hattie didn't show any signs of sadness or attachment on her face; she just stood by Selena's side.
After Lillian finished speaking, she finally got down to business. She leaned back casually and faced
the audience with a smile. "I brought three treasures with me on this trip to the capital and I want all of
you here in the capital city to help me redeem them."
The young ladies present almost instinctively sat up straight at these words. The incident at the
research institute a few days ago had already spread throughout the capital. Miss Lillian was here for NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Robert, who dared use Sacred Pearl and kill Miss Turner.
All eyes turned instinctively to Selena. She smiled, showing no signs of anger or coldness, even
managing to joke a little. "To use the most precious treasures of the central city to redeem a spy... Miss
Turner's actions as governor are truly eye-opening."
Lillian paid no attention to Selena's mockery and simply replied, "Miss Turner is serious."
With that, Lillian clapped her hands and Bianca appeared by her side. Shortly after, three people
walked in with trays in their hands. Each tray held a box - one red, one white and one black.
The boxes were made of an unknown material that shone brilliantly under the light. The scent
emanating from them was also quite alluring.
Bianca placed the boxes on the table at the center of the hall and looked up at all the young ladies
present with an air of superiority. "These are three treasures gifted by Miss Lillian to our capital city -
each priceless and rare beyond measure."
As everyone curiously examined these three items, Bianca turned her gaze towards Selena with a sly
smile on her face. "The central city is rich beyond compare; it possesses these three treasures: The
Crown Pearl, Bodhi Bone and Hell Flower."
"The central city has offered these three treasures in exchange for Mr Hall," she continued.
Selena raised an eyebrow; so Lillian had indeed brought those three items along.
Although Selena didn't pay much attention to such things anymore since she was now penniless
without any backing from either Anderson or Turner family members - when it came down to it - she
knew full well how valuable those items were.
Ordinary treasure could be fought over but not these particular ones; they were worth more than what
she currently possessed combined!
"It's not about the money, it's that you can't even buy it."
The Turner family was willing to invest in her, but Selena wasn't too keen on letting them drain their
resources just for the sake of winning against Lillian over Robert.
The outcome of her match with Lillian had never been about material possessions.
Selena was ready to move on and make other plans when Winnie suddenly stood up. "Miss Lillian's
three treasures may be impressive, but when it comes to valuable items, nothing beats those found in
the capital."
"I'm no expert myself and would love to see how the treasures from Central City compare to those
found in the capital. Who do you think will come out on top?"
