“It must be for this.
Mandy Zimmer pulled out a picture on her phone before handing it to Harvey York.
Harvey froze after seeing the picture.
“It’s just an ordinary Two-Eyed Bead, right?" “No, this is the legendary Bright-Eyed Bead.” “One of the Nine-Eyed Beads left by the founder of the Origin Sect?" Harvey had already been very well-versed in antique appraisal, but he did not use it as a means to make money.

“It’s only natural that as a head of a branch, | have to reciprocate.
“I'm grateful that you saved me...
“But the entire Jean family’s involved in the matter.
