Chapter 65 -65: This Relationship Must Be Grasped!

Sean Knight took out another Cartier watch from the box and looked at it, not quite understanding.

I’ll have someone who knows their stuff take a look at it first.

Jason Caldwell came back excitedly and said:

“Bosuns, you’re incredible! I just mentioned it to my friend, explained the details, and he said this cowboy outfit is most likely the real deal, a vintage one, quite a keepsake. One could fetch four to five hundred dollars!”

“I’ll leave it to you then, split the earnings with me by half.” Sean pointed at the other stuff in the warehouse:

“Clean these things up, will you?”

Jason cheerfully started sorting the stuff out.

There was a big garbage can outside the warehouse, but it wasn’t big enough for all this stuff. Some of the furniture, shelves, and clothes were usable, Jason took them straight out and loaded them into the car.

After cleaning up the warehouse and reporting to the administrator, Sean was about to leave but was stopped by the green-dressed beauty from before.

“Do you always come to auction this warehouse?” asked the green-dressed beauty.

“Yes.” Sean replied the girl kindly. After all, she had helped him earlier.

“I’m Selena Foster, here’s my business card, could I have your number? I think we might have an opportunity to cooperate.”

“My name is Sean,” Sean was not opposed to having one more partner, so he shared his contact detail.

Having got his contact information, the green-dressed beauty left.

Jacon asked with a bit of concern:

“Bosuns, could this woman be plotting something?”

Sean laughed:

“What could she possibly scheme? It’s just a phone number. She can’t exactly steal my money over the phone, can she?”

Jacon laughed too, then clicked his tongue:

“But Bosuns, that chick was pretty hot!”

He said this with an expression that every man would understand.

So this guy has that side to him too!

Sean had always thought of Jason as a simple and honest kid. Looks like he had thought too much!

Gone where Jason’s friend lived, dealt with all the stuff in the car, and got 3,300 dollars, Jason insisted on taking 1000 dollars, saying it has exceeded his expectation.

Sean was quite satisfied with Jason’s attitude.

He had originally planned to go back to Mr. John’s place later, show him the watch and the spider jewelry. Before he could leave, he received a phone call.

From the green-dressed beauty Selena Foster.

Did she want to ask him out?

Sean was a little surprised, but this guess was dismissed as soon as it appeared. Back in the warehouse, Selena was always cool and didn’t seem to be that kind of person.

“Sean, I’m back in the office now, I want to talk to you about a transaction.”

“Go on.”

“The thing is, my boss is the Deputy Governor of New York. Of course, I am a private assistant he hired specifically for one task.”

Sean was a little curious, why did Selena mention the Deputy Governor? Was she trying to intimidate him or was there some other intention?

“The specific task is, if you find a piece of ancient jewelry in an auction warehouse, please notify me as soon as possible, I will offer you a considerable reward.”

Sean was even more curious:

“What kind of jewelry? Anything special? How much is the reward?”

“The reward is over 100,000 dollars, enough to offset your loss from the auction warehouse. Actually, the value of the jewelry itself may not be that much, mainly it holds significant commemorative importance…”

Selena felt like she had said enough, but Sean still didn’t find the key point:

“What does the jewelry look like?”

“A rather bizarre-shaped brooch. It’s a treasure from the Russian Royal Family, two centuries ago, a memento of a relative of my client, unexpectedly taken away by another relative at that time.”

“That relative once lived in one of these warehouses and most likely left the treasure there.”

Sean finally got the gist of it.

Since the other side had mentioned the Deputy Governor’s commission, this matter was likely to be true.

“Alright, send me a picture of this brooch. If I find it, I’ll notify you right away.”

“I’m looking forward to hearing good news.”

“Did you make this offer to several others as well?”

“Yes. I’m not sure who the lucky one will be in the end.”

“I hope it’s me.”

“I hope so too, goodbye!”

After hanging up the phone, Sean Knight quickly received the photo Selena Foster had sent.

“Damn!” Sean Knight couldn’t help but to swear.

Isn’t this that spider that’s half the size of a fist?

Could this thing possibly be a brooch?

Who would wear such a frightening thing as a brooch?

Pretty big taste!

Sean Knight had always thought it was a piece of jewelry.

So he hadn’t been thinking in that direction before.

However, he’s making a big profit this time!

Just as he was about to call Selena Foster, Joanna Davis called.

“Sean, my parents are pressuring me to break up with you…”

As soon as Joanna made the call, she dropped a difficult problem on Sean’s lap.

Sean hurriedly comforted her:

“Dear, don’t worry, I’m working on a solution…”

“I miss you, but they won’t let me out. As soon as I step off campus, I’m fetched back home…”

Joanna’s voice was laced with tears.

“Don’t cry, don’t cry,” Sean was also a bit helpless, this situation was really difficult to resolve, should he really get Robert to deal with the congressman?

It’s best not to do such things!

Sean reminded himself that once used to solving problems with violence, he would likely be not far from death!

After comforting her for a while and hanging up the phone, Sean also felt troubled.

Planning to give Selena a call and talk about the spider, he suddenly remembered that Selena’s employer was the Deputy Governor!

Could he possibly take advantage of this situation?

An idea started spinning frantically in his mind!

The main objective is to get connected with the Deputy Governor.

Even if he can’t, he could at least use the name of the Deputy Governor.

He immediately called Selena Foster:

“Miss Foster, I would like to know, what is the Deputy Governor’s name? He doesn’t harbor any prejudices against Chinese people, right?”

“Deputy Governor Edward is a moderate. He has no prejudice against the Chinese. Sean, why are you asking this?”

“Because if I’m not mistaken, the piece of jewelry you’re looking for is with me.”

“What?” Selena, who had been aloof all this time, was taken aback, “Are you serious?”

“Truly, I can take a video for you to see!”

“Please, quickly! Immediately!”

Sean took a video of the jewel spider and sent it over.

A minute later, Selena called back excitedly, saying:

“Sean, yes, that’s the brooch! Where are you? Right now, I’m coming to find you, let’s trade now!”

However, Sean replied leisurely:

“Miss Foster, I agree to the trade, but I think the terms need to be changed.”

“You say.” Selena was somewhat regretful, why did she say so much earlier? Now there’s a problem!

“I would like to meet with Mr. Deputy Governor, discuss the trade, take a photo together, and of course possible future collaboration.”

“It’s impossible!” Selena rejected outright, “Mr. Edward is very busy, he doesn’t have time to deal with this matter.”

“Then I’m sorry…” Sean didn’t believe that they couldn’t even spare time for a chat, “In fact, I can reduce the reward to fifty-thousand dollars.”

Selena was torn.

To agree, or not to agree?
