Chapter 128 Robert nodded and made a call . He said fawningly , " Mr. Colson , it's me , Robert . " " What is it ? " " Someone gave my sister a diamond and said it's The Lustra . I'd like to ask you to appraise it and tell us whether it's real . " " Oh ? " Stanley was intrigued now . He asked curiously , " The Lustra ? Who is it from ? " " Just some two - bit street thug trying to get in with my sister , " Robert said . " Then it must be fake ! " Stanley grew displeased . " The Lustra was priced at 50 million dollars before , but it's worth 60 million dollars now !

As far as I'm aware , even an Iropan princess wants that diamond . How could a treasure worth that kind of money end up in the hands of some random thug ? Are you making a fool of me , Mr. Sloan ? " Robert hurriedly said , " I wouldn't dare , Mr. Colson . It's just that this dude refuses to admit the diamond is fake ; I had no choice but to ask you to appraise it so he'd give up . It'll also show us his true , hypocritical personality ! " " Send me a video . I'll know whether the diamond is real or fake at a glance , " Stanley said , sounding a bit impatient .

" Let's see what you have to say in a minute , Ashton . See if you ever have the nerve to set foot in here again ! " Roxy suddenly said , " Ashton , apologize to my mother and we'll call it even . " " Apologize ? " Ashton looked at her . " You think the diamond's fake , too , don't you ? " Roxy frowned , so he continued , " Makes sense .

Since we got married , you've only ever trusted your so - called family and not me . " He snorted . " That's why you've never realized just how foolish you are . || " Ashton Gray ! Even now , you're being stubborn ! " Roxy said coldly . " Look at the things you say and do . Does any part of that seem trustworthy ? " " Roxy , don't waste your breath on him .

You have to learn to cut ties .

Keep the kid and ditch the dad ! " Robert snarled , looking menacing . " Roxy , this is for Celia's good , too . " Michael , who'd been silent thus far , finally spoke . Ashton was even more determined to win back custody of Celia after seeing how the Sloans acted . If he weren't still getting his footing , he would never let Celia stay with the Sloans another day . " Mr. Colson , haven't you figured out if it's real yet ? " Robert asked , sounding confused . 1/2 Csapter t +25 Bonus With Stanley's skill , he would know if the diamond was real or fake at a glance .

He wouldn't need to take this long . Could some expert have created the counterfeit ? " Shut up ! " Stanley suddenly barked , his voice urgent and serious . " Excuse me ? " Tanya grew displeased . Robert wasn't bothered . " Mom , don't worry . It'll take some time to appraise the diamond since it's through a video . " Another ten minutes passed before Stanley's voice came through the phone again . This time , he could barely contain his excitement . " Mr. Sloan , may I ask who exactly gave you The Lustra ? " " Why do you ask , Mr. Colson ? You just need to tell me that it's fake .

" " I'm already on my way to the Sloan residence . As for whether The Lustra is real or fake , I'll need to appraise it in person to be sure ! " " Huh ? Is it that complicated ? " Robert asked , nonplussed . " Mr. Sloan , The Lustra's structure is extraordinarily complex . It's the product of the finest craftsmanship in the world right now . Please understand , " Stanley said earnestly . " Uh ... okay . " " I'll be there in a few minutes ! " It was clear Stanley was racing over as fast as he could .
