Charm Coin was also known as Charm Token. It was an ancient coin that people used to ward off bad luck. It originated at least a thousand years ago, rarely seen in the modern day. It was a remarkable feat for Aria to be able to acquire the coin!Ezra's exclamation drew a crowd of curious vendors. "It truly is a Charm Token! My word, you're incredibly lucky!"Vendors swarmed Aria with offers. "Miss, would you be interested in selling the coin? I'll give you five thousand dollars!""Five thousand? Don't try to bluff her! This costs at least 60 thousand dollars!""60 thousand dollars? Miss, don't listen to them! I'll offer you 200 thousand dollars."Ezra felt extremely regretful when he saw the events unfolding. He couldn't believe he had given out Charm Coin as a gift! He even said that Aria knew nothing.How could Will say that Aria was just his niece? She was obviously an expert in ancient artifacts!Ezra felt anxious. "I can give you 300 thousand dollars! Miss, I gave it to
A murmur rippled through the crowd surrounding Aria. "Whoever possesses the Emperor's Coin is guaranteed immense fortune! It's a relic of the royal family, after all!"The people surged toward Aria upon hearing this."Miss, are you willing to sell the Emperor Coin?""I'll offer you 1 million dollars!""Make it 2 million! Miss, please consider it. I need this item as a businessman."The initial commotion had already drawn a crowd, but now, half the market had gathered.Blake was seeing his guests off. As he passed by the throng, he casually inquired, "What's all this commotion about?""A young woman managed to acquire the Emperor Coin. How amazing!"Philip perked up at the mention of a young woman. "Could it be the one who came with Mr. Weller?"Kenny shot the crowd a dismissive look. "Doesn't matter who it is. It's most likely just a publicity stunt. What exactly do you think the Emperor's Coin is? It's not something you can easily collect in its entirety. Vendors who actually
Getting the Emperor Coin was an incredible feat. Even a seasoned archaeologist might have overlooked it in Ezra's stall.For five or six years, Ezra's copper coins had gathered dust. Many customers passed by, some even refusing them as a freebie. Price was all that mattered; nobody cared about rusty coins. But Aria had a keen eye.Disappointment washed over Ezra. He clutched his hair, staring at the candle jar. "How could I have been so blind?"He'd unknowingly possessed a valuable treasure for years. Frustration welled up, turning his eyes red. Millions of dollars worth of items sold for a measly six thousand, the coins included as a throw-in! The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.Just as his frustration peaked, Aria spoke. "Mr. Martinez, your candle jar also seems quite old. It might have come from the same place as the copper coins."Her hint was clear. Not understanding it would be foolish. "Yes, yes. It's from the same place. My ancestors had used it back then.
A large crowd suddenly formed. Will stared at the unbelievable scene before him. Despite having his shoes trampled on several times and his collar askew, he refused to leave.Even after straightening his collar, he remained hesitant. "Ms. Carver, are we just leaving like this? If you want that candle jar, Mr. Martines will definitely give it to you!""The candle jar will only safeguard its original owners." Aria strung the Emperor Coin with the red string before placing it in her bag."Uncle Will, we can't be greedy about others' luck. It might backfire on us. Plus, Mr. Martines is not a bad guy. All his items are genuine," Aria added with a smile.It was true that Ezra sold his items for a higher price. However, the price was reasonable if the items were all legitimate. Ezra rubbed his head after hearing that. "Oh, I thought you'd think I was dumb for constantly buying from him at higher prices.""Good items are scarce these days," Aria said, her intelligence allowing her to se
Sam nodded. He shook the bell again, as if he'd taken a liking to it, grinning widely throughout. Aria's gaze darkened. She'd always believed that nothing was created to be inherently good or evil. Demons were far from being the most terrifying existence in the world—that would be the nature of humanity. She'd taken Sam under her wing and would continue to do so until the end. He was just a boy who loved to eat, and it would be fine if she didn't make him angry. Aria pinched Sam's cheeks. Sam suddenly thought of something. He gestured, "That guy from just now is about to die soon. I could smell it.""Everyone has their own destiny. His, however, hinges on whether he races later." Aria couldn't see through the darkness between another person's brows and could only tell one's fortune by analyzing their facial features. Tobias had taught her how to do face reading. One passage in the manual read, "Those with round noses possess good intentions."While Aria couldn't definitivel
The roads were soaked. It had been raining for a whole day in Southbury. Aria Carver's backpack was thrown out of the door by the butler in disdain."Mr. Kent doesn't want to see you, Ms. Carver. So, I have to say some words in his stead. Your birth parents are in the countryside. Your father's last name is Carver."The Kent family mistook you for their daughter in the past. But now that Ms. Lily has been found, I hope that you can do what's best for everyone and stop contacting the Kent family."The butler, Alfred Dun, took out a card. "Here's 10,000 dollars. Mr. Kent instructed me to give it to you as compensation.""No need."Aria didn't even look at the card as she picked up her backpack.Alfred looked at her in disdain. She didn't want the money? Was she acting tough?She should really think about her circumstances. The Kents had found their real daughter. They wouldn't want a country bumpkin like her anymore. She was an embarrassment. "As you wish, Ms. Carver." Alfred
"I'll offer treatment for everyone at the community square tomorrow." Then, Aria reminded them, "Remember to take the medicine. Don't stay up late to watch soap operas. They won't end so soon.""The Tiara" was all the rage in the Elmer district at that time. All the older men and women were hooked on it.A lot of them looked guilty after Aria said that. "We…We will sleep at 10:00 pm from now on."In the past, no one could have imagined that this group of people would be so obedient to one person. A lot of them had made great contributions to the country. Even their identities were kept a secret.Elmer district's community manager, Joel Hayes, had been hoping that Aria would come back sooner. He could finally breathe a sigh of relief. "Dr. Carver, I have been keeping an eye on your house. I've not allowed anyone to approach your property.""Thanks for the hard work." Aria bowed slightly and handed him an apple. Joel accepted the apple with a smile. "It's no trouble at all. I tr
"You have a good eye, boss! I'll prepare an account to receive payment from the Yorks!"Aria said calmly, "No need to rush. Let me sleep first. Do it tomorrow."Other than making money, Aria's biggest interest was treating all sorts of rare diseases. This job from the York family was a nice one for her.Honestly, she was probably the only person who wasn't fazed by the York's visit to Southbury. All of the prominent families in the city were scrambling into action.A family like the Kents had to reach out to everyone they knew and utilize all of their connections in an attempt to get an invitation from the Yorks. Even regular people were talking about how the city was especially lively that month.First, the richest man in Janovin came to look for his granddaughter. Then, the York family came to receive treatment. Some said that the Yorks came to Southbury because the legendary Whiz Doctor was in town. There were a lot of rumors about the Whiz Doctor, but some of them were qui
