Jesper was furious as he turned to look at Flynn, asking, "What do you think, Flynn?"
Flynn stood upright and solemnly replied, "I think you should uphold your end of the
bargain, Mr. Jesper."
Jesper was stunned, gawking at Flynn. After all, the latter hired the older man, an experienced figure in the world of geodes. Even so, Jesper wondered why Flynn would
take Bonnie's side.
Soon after, a bearded old man dressed in all white stepped forward. Someone from the
crowd exclaimed, "Hey, that's Mr. Pan from the Gemstone Association!"
"I thought he retired years ago. Also, he stopped caring about what was going on in the circle. What's he doing here?"
Pan gazed at Bonnie as he walked past her. He approached Jesper and said, "Credibility is essential in our circle. You should deliver on your promise since you made a bet with her.
Everyone was shocked to hear that. No one expected Pan to come out of retirement after all these years, let alone speak up for Bonnie instead of Jesper. Moreover, Jesper was
more seasoned than Bonnie was.
Jesper could just cry, thinking, 'What rotten luck is this? Why would Mr. Pan show up just as I make such a bet with Bonnie?'
"M-Mr. Pan, it's not like I don't want to uphold my end. How am I supposed to swallow such a huge chunk of rock?"
"Then, why would you claim to do such an outrageous thing if you knew you couldn't do it? Were you aware you were deceiving her? Your actions are utterly disgraceful!" Pan lectured Jesper harshly.
The latter could feel the onlookers judging him. He wished he could magically disappear
to the other end of the world.

"Listen carefully, Jesper. You either do as you said or leave the association!" Pan
exclaimed.
Jesper panicked. Although he was a renowned figure within the gemstone circle, Pan's standing and reputation were far greater than Jesper's.
Bonhle approached Pen and stood beside him, saying, "Since the rock is too big for you
low, I guess I can be merciful. We can grind it to dust and feed that to you instead Jesper Inwardly cursed her and her family. However, he still had to keep his word and swallow the dust. He even considered preemptively calling an ambulance to get his
stomach pumped.
Meanwhile, the curious Flynn asked, "Bonnie, how could you tell this humble- looking stone
was an ice jadeite with the floating flowers pattern?"
She pointed at her eyes and said, "I saw it with these, of course."
Flynn's lips twitched, thinking, 'Is that supposed to be an answer? Of course, she used her eyes. What else would it be?'
The crowd around Pan grew larger. One asked, "Why did you come out of retirement, Mr.
Pan? Are you going to rejoin the antique gemstone circle?"

She was not the only one who had noticed that. Even Daken, Mairi, and Flynn
felt the same
way.
