Irene Jensen's eyes filled with amazement when she saw Vera Xavier. She had thought Susan Caldwell was already outstanding in both looks and bearing, but the moment Susan stood next to Vera, she was immediately outshone in every aspect.
A sense of curiosity about Vera Xavier immediately sparked within her. She now understood why both Susan Caldwell and Skylar Crowe had lost out to Vera yesterday. 'This Vera Xavier is clearly not someone to be trifled with.'
Vera Xavier said nothing, but Susan Caldwell didn't seem to mind. She continued to smile and said, "Are you also here for stone gambling?"
"Isn't that a stupid question?" Jack Judd, who had no fondness for her whatsoever, retorted. "Why else would someone come to The Jade Market? To eat rocks?"
Susan Caldwell completely ignored him, instead looking at Vera Xavier and saying, "What a coincidence, we're here for stone gambling too. I wonder if you'd be interested in having a little competition with me?"
