“It’s truly incredible.”
“That’s right! I’m very impressed.”
Many guests couldn’t help but praise Penelope.
However, some of the guests there had attended Ashlyn’s lecture before, so they couldn’t help but ask,
“That expert… I remember she doesn’t look like Ms. Berry.”
Someone immediately refuted, “You probably just remembered her face wrong. Many people don’t
actually resemble how they appear in pictures.”
Penelope gradually raised her head and spoke humbly to the crowd. “I still have a lot to learn. No need
to praise me like that. I’ll get embarrassed.”
Her sickly sweet tone and voice killed the liveliness of the atmosphere.
It wasn’t until after a while that people started speaking again.
Bianca pressed her fingers to her forehead with a pained expression and asked Matilda, “Is Ryan back
yet?”
“Mr. Yates is on the way back, Old Mrs. Yates. It will probably take him another half an hour to arrive,”
Matilda swiftly answered.
“We’ll start the banquet after he has returned.”
At that moment, Caleb and Nicholas approached Bianca debonairly.
When they first arrived, many people wanted to chat with them.
It wasn’t until then that they managed to be free from the crowd.
The brothers spoke almost in unison. “We hope that Old Mrs. Yates will live long and prosper!”
Caleb then gave her an invaluable jade necklace with detailed patterns carved on it. “I picked this jade
pendant myself before asking a master craftsman to carve the patterns. She’s a very talented person
who doesn’t easily agree to a request like this. Do you like it, Old Mrs. Yates?”
Almost everyone in the crowd knew a handcrafted jade pendant like that was hard to find because a
master craftsman was difficult to come by.
After all, almost all jade pendants nowadays were carved by machines.
Very few people were willing to spend considerable effort to learn the art of carving. Currently, the
younger generation had many more options to choose from, which made a challenging profession like
that a less popular choice. As time passed, fewer and fewer people were interested in learning that
skill.
When he said that, it instantly garnered many people’s attention. They couldn’t help but aim their gaze
at the jade pendant in Bianca’s hand.
Detailed patterns spanned the entire pendant. At the center was a figure of a local deity smiling warmly.
The deity was holding a vase and sitting on a lotus flower.
“The carving looks so real! Her kind smile makes people feel like she has achieved enlightenment.”
“That’s right! The carving looks so good.”
“I wonder who’s the craftsman responsible for it.”
Caleb smiled mysteriously. “Who else can it be but the most mysterious one?”
“Oh my god! Are you saying this was done by the mysterious craftsman who has never shown herself
in public before? I heard she has a pair of godly hands despite her young age! Many people want her
to carve something for them, yet she only takes on one request every year! This pendant probably cost
hundreds of millions!”
“You’re incredible, Mr. Powell!”
“I heard she always hides a secret symbol on all her works, which is an S. Old Mrs. Yates, can you try
to look for the S symbol on the pendant?”
Bianca was shocked too. She never thought Caleb would intentionally seek out the legendary
craftsman to make that jade pendant for her.
Without a second of delay, she looked for the symbol.
An invisible S was located at the bottom of the pendant.
“There really is one!” She stood up emotionally and showed it for everyone to see. “There is one here!
I’m grateful for your thoughtfulness, Mr. Powell.”
Caleb smiled. “It’s worth it as long as it makes your birthday banquet a happy one.”
Mary stared at the scene emotionally. My eyes didn’t deceive me! Mr. Powell is as rich and handsome
as a wealthy man can be! More importantly, he’s still single!
Her eyes were glued to him, admiration shining in them.
What the crowd wanted to know was what kind of gift Nicholas would present after Caleb gave Bianca
such an expensive item.
