The Princess and the Paupers

Chapter 605

They walked in with tons of gifts, only to find Romeo and the folks from the Winters family already there. They warmly greeted everyone. “Enid, you haven’t given your gift to Grandma Shirley yet.” Mr. Winters reminded with a smile.

“How could I accept gifts from younger people? Besides, it’s not even my birthday.” Shirley waved her hand with a smile, refusing to accept.

But Enid kept holding out the gift, “Grandma Shirley, just open it. I promise you’ll like it.”

Jessamyn was a bit curious on the side, “Shirley, since she insists, why not just take a little peek?”

“Yeah, let us see what it is, tool” Suri, who had always been on good terms with the Winters family, chimed in.

Shirley thought to herself since she’s offered it, why not just open it? She could always give it back and not make the younger one lose face.

With Grandpa Phillip’s help, she opened it to find a set of top–notch chess pieces and a shiny gold chessboard!

“It’s a gold chess set!”

“What a gem!”

Jessamyn and Suri exclaimed, surprised by the young woman’s generosity.

Even more surprising, how did she get her hands on it.

Gold of this caliber was scarce, and only the purest and most evenly colored pieces were chosen for carving.

It’s said that selecting the chess set’s materials took three years.

It was followed by another three years to handcraft the 32 pieces.

Each piece was worth $200,000!!

More importantly, as soon as this chess set was released, it attracted countless collectors and was eventually brought by a famous man, Mr Eugene, for $18 million.

No one else could buy it.
