Upon witnessing Jane's collapse and subsequent fainting, Jebediah looked down at her with a sense of revulsion. Despite this, she was swiftly taken to the nearest hospital. Jebediah felt a wave of embarrassment wash over him as he noticed the surrounding gazes. Some were filled with mockery, while others reveled in the spectacle. Regrettably, he couldn't depart just yet. Jane's actions had led to the company suffering a substantial loss of hundreds of millions. Her failure to secure the crucial piece of jadeite would significantly impact the company's plans for the upcoming year. Without the jadeite, what could they use to promote their high-end jewelry? His only option was to request additional funds from the headquarters and purchase jadeite that others had extracted on-site. Regrettably, premium jadeite was scarce, and those who sold theirs would inflate the price, often exceeding their expectations, leaving them with no choice but to abandon the idea. Having already lost hundreds of millions, the company was now grappling with a liquidity crunch. Despite his persistent efforts to acquire it, he was met with disappointment. At this point, his resentment towards Jane had reached its zenith. The higher-ups at Fordson Jewelry were also visibly displeased. The public auction had not only resulted in failure but also turned them into laughing stocks within the industry. It was an embarrassment too great for them to bear. On the other hand, the Reich Group had a relatively successful haul this time, providing them with an opportunity to revert to their state from three years ago. Tommy observed that most of the raw materials selected by Simone yielded a significant amount of jadeites.He smiled and asked, "Master Gray, are you planning to sell these jadeites that you've extracted? If so, why not sell them to our company at the market price?" This implied that he was willing to purchase at a price higher than the public auction due to his admiration for her abilities. Simone smiled and shook her head. "I'm not selling them. I plan to use these jadeites." Felix chuckled, "Are you going to use them to craft jade talismans for protection?" Simone replied, "Yes. The cost is lower, and the quality is superior to buying jadeite from other sources." Felix smiled. "When you've crafted them, please reserve a few for us." Simone reciprocated with a smile. "We'll see when the time comes." By now, it was already late at night. The auction had only concluded late into the evening due to the sheer volume of jadeites that needed to be appraised.Tommy suggested that his bodyguards help safeguard the jadeites until she could ship them the following day. Simone accepted his offer. After all, she couldn't possibly transport such a large quantity of jadeites back to the hotel on her own. Subsequently, she drew a few talismans and affixed them to the safe where she and Zac stored the jadeites. She also affixed some for Tommy's company. This would deter anyone from switching or stealing the jadeites through any underhanded means. On the way back to the hotel, Tommy asked Simone, "Master Gray, I've noticed something. Jane's stone gambling expertise seems to only work when June is present. Is that correct?" Simone was not surprised that Tommy had picked up on this. After all, any astute individual could sense that something was amiss with Jane's performance over the past few days. "Yes, June is the key to her possessing that mysterious gambling ability." Intrigued, Tommy asked, "Does this mean that June is actually the stone gambling master? Is she merely being exploited by Jane?" Simone replied, "No. June does not possess such abilities. However, her luck has been appropriated by Jane through a unique method. That's why Jane cannot afford to leave her." Upon hearing this, Tommy understood. Jane's remarkable gambling ability was indeed achieved through unconventional means. "As long as June doesn't leave, will Jane continue to possess this ability?" Naturally, he did not want Jane to rise again. Simone reassured him, "Don't worry. The unconventional methods they previously employed have been disrupted. Now, regardless of whether June is by her side or not, she will no longer possess that ability. Moreover, due to her previous actions of pilfering others' luck and cheating in gambling to seize opportunities from others, she will face a backlash in the future. The incident from the past few days was a perfect example. She couldn't extract any jadeite from raw materials. It was the karma she deserved." "Does that mean she will continue to suffer in the future?" Simone nodded. "Yes. Starting from today, her luck will only worsen." Borrowing luck was not a simple task, and when it was time to repay, it could lead to one's downfall. Nevertheless, she was not deserving of sympathy as she had brought this upon herself. Tommy felt a sense of relief upon hearing her explanation.With a meaningful smile, he uttered, "It seems like we can seize this opportunity to teach her a lesson." Tommy had harbored a grudge against Jane for the incident where she nearly killed his brother. If he didn't personally seek revenge, he wouldn't be able to let go of it. Simone reminded him, "Not only can we teach her a lesson, but we can also stir up trouble for Fordson Jewelry." Given Jane's character and the puppeteer behind her, losing the gambling ability meant there was only one way to acquire more jadeites: seizing power. Upon her return, she would undoubtedly vie with the Fordson Family for power and profit. Tommy could meddle in their family affairs and ensure both Jane and the Fordson Family suffer. Fordson Jewelry had relied on Jane's unscrupulous tactics all along to expand their business to its current scale. Now, it was time for them to pay for their past transgressions. Fordson Jewelry was the primary source of jade supply to the puppeteer behind Jane. This time, she must sever ties with that individual, no matter what. Tommy understood and smiled knowingly, "It's time to stir up trouble for Fordson Jewelry." When he was previously contending with Fordson Jewelry, he had to consider that the Fordson Family was part of his wife's family. But now, he didn't have to worry about it anymore. He could do whatever pleased him. Tommy pondered for a moment and asked, "Will June return to the Fordson Family?" He had assumed that June's sudden disappearance and detachment from Jane must be related to Simone. Simone responded, "No, she won't."Tommy nodded. "That's good." Meanwhile, at the hospital, Jane regained consciousness. She felt incredibly weak and her complexion was extremely pale. Only her assistant remained in the ward with her. "Where is Jebediah?" Her assistant replied, "Mr. Fordson has gone to purchase jade." Upon hearing the word 'jade', Jane felt a wave of nausea, so she instructed her assistant, "I'm hungry. Get me something to eat." She didn't actually have an appetite at the moment, but she merely wanted to be alone in the room. "Sure!" The assistant promptly got up and left. Now that Jane was alone in the ward, she reached out and grabbed her phone.The group chat where the company's top executives were was in chaos. It was filled with accusations and insults directed at her, demanding an explanation. Jane's eyes were filled with scorn. She had previously procured a substantial amount of jade for the company that was undoubtedly worth more than hundreds of millions. Why didn't they appreciate her efforts back then? Nevertheless, that wasn't her primary concern. When she checked her messages, she noticed several unread ones, so she tapped to read them. 'June is missing.' 'The connection between you and June has been severed. Bringing her back won't help you.' 'The spell on June has been broken, and most of the fortune you took from her will be returned. You will start experiencing bad luck.' 'What have you been doing? How could you fail in both the open bid and the hidden bid?' 'You won't be able to continue with the jade gambling like before.' 'Your task now is to regain control of Fordson Jewelry.' 'Train a few stone gambling experts for us to use in the future.' 'I will have someone send you a talisman to ward off bad luck. Carry it with you at all times.' 'Remember, within three months, you must have control over Fordson Jewelry.' Each message was delivered after some time. Jane felt a pang of regret when she realized that she could no longer bask in the glory of gambling on stones as she did before.But now, she had no choice but to accept it. As a result, she harbored a deep resentment towards Simone and June. If she ever had the chance to get her hands on these two, she would ensure they suffered immensely. With that, she replied with a message, 'Yes. This time, I will seize power and make Fordson Jewelry ours.' This was her only chance to continue living a life of glory.
