“Mr. Lloyd, is that a sacred relic in your hand?” Esle gasped in disbelief.
Andrew casually tossed it to her and said, “Have your Radiant Group experts verify it–that should clear things up right away.”
Elsie immediately took the pearl for authentication.
Orion felt uneasy but still scoffed, “A sacred relic? Kid, you’ve got some nerves. Do you even know how precious these artifacts are?”
“Of course I do,” Andrew replied coolly. “When ancient spiritual masters passed away and were cremated, these relics remained. Scientifically speaking, they’re just crystallized remains
-but in the antiquities world, every authentic relic is priceless. I’m sure the experts here understand what I mean.”
Many nodded in agreement with Andrew’s words. Indeed, any genuine sacred relic was one–of a–kind, and while it might not have any special physical properties, its cultural and historical significance made it an absolute treasure in collectors‘ eyes.
Seeing Orion’s confidence falter, Aspen quickly jumped in, “Andrew, it’s just a pearl. Just because you say it’s a sacred relic doesn’t make it one! That’s like me claiming that statue you broke was some legendary ancient treasure.”
“Aspen, the fact that you can’t tell the difference between two completely different artifacts really shows how impressive your intellect is,” Andrew retorted sarcastically.
Aspen’s face turned red with anger. “That’s exactly my point–you’re just making up stories about that worthless pearl!”
Andrew ignored her and waited for news from Elsie. The Radiant Group’s expert team worked efficiently, and within minutes, over a dozen elderly specialists wearing reading glasses rushed over.
“Which one of you is Mr. Andrew Lloyd?” The elderly experts were visibly excited, looking, around urgently.
People began to realize something was up, wondering if the expert panel discovered something significant.
Andrew stepped forward. “That’s me. I assume you’ve verified it with your specialized equipment?”
The elder holding the relic with trembling hands said, “This is indeed a sacred relic. Mr. Lloyd, you’re right!”
The experts‘ confirmation shocked the crowd. People began whispering and arguing about the authenticity and significance of the discovery.
“Are you telling me that black pearl is actually a sacred relic? Is this for real?”

“Shut up if you don’t know what you’re talking about! You can’t question Radiant Group’s expertise. These panel members are legends in the antique world.”
Cedric was nearly delirious with joy as he snatched back the relic, almost fainting from excitement. “Haha! A sacred relic, a true spiritual treasure! Dr. Lloyd authenticated this for me, and none of you can touch it!”
Francesca danced with joy. “Andrew, you’re incredible! You’re just like those legendary antique masters from novels who can spot treasures at a glance!”
Elsie’s jaw dropped in amazement. “Mr. Lloyd, who would have thought you were such a hidden master of antiquities?”
