Capítulo 181: Precious Gift

At the Ford's banquet.

"This is one of the ancient jade relics, known as the Heart Stone," Eldric explained, his voice filled with awe as he stared at the red colour Jade in his hands.

"It has passed through the hands of many royal families and is said to protect a weak heart. It's a priceless artifact that no one can easily acquire. It was guarded for centuries and was recently auctioned, attracting bids from the world's wealthiest, including the four richest families in our city—none of whom could secure it. Instead, it was won by a mysterious businessman who paid a fortune, though no one knows his identity. To even touch it is beyond most of us. I'm lucky just to be holding it."

Eldric turned to Albert, his gaze warm. "Your heart is weak. This is an incredibly thoughtful and valuable gift for you."

Everyone gathered heard his words, and a wave of shock rippled through the room.
