Chapter 437 - Fancy Color Diamonds

J leaned in an armchair with a stern face. She is silently analyzing the information that Felix has gathered.

"If she wants to bid for the red diamond to complete her collection, why did she donated her blue diamond?" Diana was flustered. Actually, this whole diamond thing is making her flustered. She is not a fan of gems and hearing that there were such things as fancy color diamond surprised her. She only knows that a diamond is clear.

"That's one point." Felix pointed it out. "Of course, do you think she would really just donate one of her collections?"

"A fancy vivid blue diamond like Galaxy is extremely rare. Galaxy is 20-carat which is one of a kind. She wouldn't just let it go." J said nonchalantly.

"Donating it was just an act?" Stefan said with a cocked head seemingly proud of what he came to realize.

Felix nodded his head. "That's right. Aivy cares too much about her image. And she is overly competitive. Donating one of her most precious collection put her business on the limelight. Of course, she is not really planning to let Galaxy go. Donating it was just an act. She had someone to bid the highest possible price for Galaxy or Massive J."

"I don't get it. If she bids for the highest price. Then wouldn't the money just go to the charity?" Diana asked in confusion.

"That's when The Children of Mt. Celandine enters the picture. She worked with someone from the GBC Auction Ball to make sure that the Children of Mt. Celandine will pass as their beneficiary. Therefore, the fund that The Children of Mt. Celandine will gather will all go to their own pocket." Felix said.

"Oh… I get it. But…I have known Ms. Laurie Como since I was a child. I don't think she is the kind of person that would use a one-time grant given to The Children of Mt. Celandine for her personal gain." Diana grew up in Mt. Celandine and has been one of those children that Laurie Como had helped although during those times, The Children of Mt. Celandine hasn't existed yet.

"And when we visited The Children of Mt. Celandine, Laurie Como's daughter said that their application to be a beneficiary of GBC Auction Ball was done by her Aunt, which I suppose is Aivy. And if I remember it correctly, you guys said that Laurie Como and Aivy were not in a good relationship." Lance said.

"Damn. This Aivy is cunning. It looks like she is using The Children of Mt. Celandine for her own benefit. She is just using her sister's organization so that all the money that she will spend for Massive J will all fall back in her hands together with Massive J." Stefan said with a gritted tooth.

"The Children of Mt. Celandine is really being used. They were not even qualified to be a beneficiary of GBC Auction Ball but Aivy made it so." Felix said.

All this time, Arthur and Daniel remained quiet which was not unusual. J knew that these two men were already strategizing based on the information that Felix has gathered.

"Hmm…I wonder, just how much those fancy color diamonds cost?" Diana said with dreamy eyes, her elbow on the table while her chin is rested on her palm.

"Uhm…the green diamond which is 3-carats cost 4 million dollars, the purple diamond which is 15-carats costs 25 million dollars, the orange diamond which is 14-carats cost 30 million dollars and the pink diamond which is 24 carats and also the most expensive from her collection is 45 million dollars. Well, at least, that was the price back then when she bought them. They probably cost more today." Felix said nonchalantly.

Diana's jaw dropped. "That much?!" She exclaimed. "How about the Galaxy?" She asked then everyone looked at J's direction.

"My grandfather bought it for 25 million dollars 28 years ago."

Everyone's jaw dropped. If it cost 25 million dollars 28 years ago, just how much will it cost now? Probably double its price?
