Chapter 145
As soon as Oliver’s words came out, Levi felt as if he had sunk to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.
However, Jenifer had a different emotion. Waving the note towards Will, she said with a flowery smile, “Will, he right again!”
After saying that, Jenifer tilted her head and glanced at Oliver. She couldn’t figure out how Oliver identified all those strange items correctly!
She had already had a crush on Oliver. And Oliver’s icy attitude toward her stirred up her competitiveness to win his heart.
Jenifer was such a stubborn girl. The more she couldn’t get it, the more she wanted it. Now that she had seen Oliver’s impressive identification skills, her heart was filled with joy as if it were about to explode!
Oliver was actually quite handsome, but his skills were even more dazzling, and completely converted Jenifer’s competitiveness into admiration!
Looking at the shining Oliver, Jenifer showed her contempt for Levi directly.
Levi was both panicked and frustrated. At this time, whether Jenifer was nice to him was no longer a concern to him. He was worried about his 10 million dollars!
Now that Oliver had identified all the items correctly, Levi was definitely going to lose. But he still had hope. If Levi also identified all items of Oliver correctly, this game would be a tie and he wouldn’t lose.
Thinking about it, Levi glanced at the 10 small boxes placed by Oliver. He took a few steps forward with his teeth gritted and said to Oliver, “Okay, now I’ll identify your items!”
Beginning with the first box, Levi saw a piece of wood as big as a finger in it.
The wood had its skin peeled off and the bark was not visible. It was a little reddish in color.
Levi couldn’t identify it at all. He withdrew his fingers touching the wood and licked them in his mouth, which tasted slightly astringent.
“Is that from some sort of tree?” Levi wondered.
Levi frowned and thought about it. That small piece of wood was very light. It should not be good wood such as solid rosewood. Yet there were many other high-quality woods, and all of them felt a little different from this one.
Pondering for a while, Levi thought it might be redwood because the color of redwood was also slightly red. Besides, redwood possessed high quality but felt relatively light.
“That’s it!” concluded Levi.
He gritted his teeth and said to Oliver, “This is redwood!”
Hearing what Levi said, Oliver smiled without any comments. He pointed to the small box and said to Levi, “Read the answer in the box for yourself.”
Levi then took out the note and looked at the right answer. In an instant, his face changed.
Jenifer looked sideways and saw the note in his hand: The branch of hydrangea macrophylla.
“Wrong!”
Jenifer smiled and said ironically, “Levi, I don’t think you need to identify the rest items. Oliver didn’t miss one item. So, you are supposed to do the same thing. But you guessed the first item incorrectly, so you have lost this game!”
With his face turning pale, Levi couldn’t stop his fingers from shaking. “What about that 6 million dollars of the company?” he thought.
Levi was definitely going to lose!
He screwed the first round. So what if he nailed the rest?
He still changed nothing.
Oliver shrugged off his hands and said in a light tone, “I didn’t play any tricks. I just cut ten kinds of flowers and branches in the backyard of Mr. Woods’s house.”
Levi was both angry and furious. He was overthinking it and making it too complex, but he didn’t expect Oliver to make the simplest ten items. Even so, he still failed to identify them.
Will said to Levi with a smile, “Mr. Levi, rules are rules. I’ll transfer all the 10 million dollars to Oliver’s account. If you can’t take this result, you should make another bet with Oliver and win back your money!”
The words “Fuck you” were right on Levi’s tip of the tongue. Yet somehow, he didn’t say that. Though he did want to do so to Jenifer.
With his confidence cursed by Oliver’s identification skills, Levi knew that he would still be the loser in the next game.
Yet he swore to get his vengeance. Oliver took away his lover and money. Grudges, whether new or old, left countless scars on Levi’s heart. He hated Oliver to the guts.
Witnessing Will transferred the money to Oliver’s account, Levi felt as if his heart was bleeding.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Oliver got his trophy as a matter of course. But if he refused it, Levi then could take the chance to get his money back. Levi desired the word “No” spat from Oliver’s mouth terribly.
But Oliver didn’t say anything. He accepted the money gently. No matter how fiercely Levi looked at Oliver, Oliver simply ignored him.
Oliver had no fear in Levi at all. After all, the latter was only somebody here. In Jeahron, Levi was nothing to him.
Besides, Oliver’s business and resources were not restricted by anyone. Why should he be afraid of?
While Levi was stuck in anxiety and frustration, Jenifer went over to gather the 10 boxes together and waved for a servant, commanding, “Pack up these boxes.”
Oliver had won all ten items. It was agreed in advance that whoever won would get all of them.
Levi’s ten items were quite strange, but Oliver said they were quite valuable.
On the contrary, Oliver’s ten items were worthless. They were but branches cut from Jenifer’s backyard.
Only two or three of Levi’s ten items were what Oliver really wanted because he saw hidden value in them.
Levi probably didn’t even know about it. Otherwise, he would have sold it for money already.
Sure enough, Oliver wouldn’t reveal this secret. He knew he should not cross the line too far. Although Levi asked for it, Oliver still decided to pull his punches.
Seeing that Levi was stunned and didn’t want to leave, Jenifer ridiculed him mercilessly: “Why are you still here? Did you lose your taxi fare in the game?”
As she spoke, Jenifer took out a few hundred bucks from her bag and stuffed them into Levi’s hands. She said with a smile, “Here is some money for you. You don’t need to pay them back”
How was it possible that Levi could not even pay the taxi driver?
He drove his own car coming to this game. Besides, his lackey who was asked to bring those items here also had a car.
Seeing his own crush openly defend Oliver but ridicule himself meanly, Levi couldn’t take it anymore. Leaving a snort, he turned around, got into his car and left.
With a smile, Will turned around and said to Oliver, “Oliver, let’s go and chat inside!”
Shaking his head, Oliver who looked at Jenifer reached out his hands and asked, “Where’s my phone?”
Jenifer was stunned. Smiling as she took out his phone from her bag and handed it to Oliver, Jenifer said, “You… I’m worried that it might drop somewhere, so I have been keeping it for you. I don’t want the servant to break it.”
Oliver took over the phone with a sullen face and pressed it only to realize it was turned off.
After turning on his phone, he found a series of SMS prompts popping out. There were more than 70 missed calls, including 28 from Wayne, 29 from Manuel and 17 from Simon. There were also countless text messages from them.
