My Husband Is a Gary Stu

Chapter 1553 More Money Than He Can Spend

Johanna did not know how to respond to that, so she remained silent.

Seeing that, Genevieve was both frustrated and helpless. She picked up her phone from the table to check if she had received any work messages, only to notice a news notification.

It turned out that there was an auction with quite a few priceless items the day before the opening of the Broburgh Film Festival.

The auction items included a pear-shaped pink diamond weighing ninety-point four carats.

It was one of only eight flawless diamonds to have appeared in the International Auction since 1990, its stunning pink hue attracting the attention of netizens worldwide.

Genevieve had too many jewels that the sight of that pink diamond did not stir any excitement within her. She held her phone out to Johanna, asking, “Do you like it?”

Johanna glanced at the phone screen. “It's quite beautiful, but I usually don’t wear jewelry during work. I also rarely attend evening parties. I can't even wear all the jewelry Timothy bought me.”

Genevieve stared at her before suddenly bursting into laughter, puzzling Johanna to no end. “Why are you laughing, Genev?”

“It's nothing.”

Genevieve sent a message to her cousin, Yuvan, who was attending the film festival in Bellridge, asking for his help to buy the pink diamond.

Well, it'll be nice to give this to Cooper and Sally when they get married as a wedding gift.

After the weekend, Johanna returned to her studio and got down to business. She sketched several drafts but was not satisfied with any of them. She felt that the clothing lacked elements of tea, making them seem like ordinary clothes.

Coincidentally, Waylon's friend owned a tea garden on the outskirts of Jadeborough, so she planned to visit it for inspiration.

The tea garden was not far from Jadeborough, just about an hour and a half by subway. She took the subway, and after getting off the station, a ten-minute bus ride brought her to the plantation base.

Waylon had notified the person in charge of the tea garden about Johanna's visit. As such, the man was already waiting at the intersection to pick her up.

As they walked toward the tea garden, the person in charge said to Johanna, “The tea we grow here is all rooibos tea. The sprouts that are growing now are of the spring season. The tea buds are plump, and they're lush green...”

The closer Johanna got to the tea plantation, the more distinct the fragrant aroma of tea on the gentle breeze. It filled the air around her, making her pores open in delight.

As Johanna passed the open-air parking lot, she noticed several cars parked there. Among them, the license plate of a Mercedes seemed vaguely familiar. “Do you have guests today?” she asked.

“Yes.” The person in charge explained in a whisper, “The big shot seems quite wealthy and wants to buy this tea garden to plant something else.”

At that, Johanna commented in amusement, “If he wants to grow fruits, he can buy an orchard. Why spend so much money buying and renovating a tea garden? Does he have more money than he can spend?”
