Jardins became anxious right away.
She had already celebrated this deal with a feast. If the other party were to back out now, the embarrassment would be unbearable.
Moreover, if this deal were to be cancelled, it would deal a severe blow to Jardins’ confidence.
After some hesitation, Jardins picked up his phone and called Maria.
The call went through, but it took quite a while for Maria to answer.
“Sorry, I was caught up in something urgent, so I forgot about this for a moment, ” Maria’s voice came through the phone, putting Jardins somewhat at ease.
“It’s alright. I’m not in a hurry. I was just calling to check in. If you’re busy, please go ahead,” Jardins replied.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Maria didn’t waste any more time and transferred the money to Jardins.

Relieved, Jardins decided to personally deliver the goods to Maria.
On the other side, Luo Feng had just handed over the Warring States dagger to Mr. Wu’s representative. Now he was contemplating how to acquire the statue of Maitreya Buddha.
The statue was currently disolaved in the jobbv of the Cosmic Tower.
Though it was within arm’s reach, obtaining it seemed as difficult as climbing to heaven. After all, the security of Cosmic Tower was not to be taken lightly. The very fact that they dared to display such a valuable artifact in their lobby showed their absolute confidence in their security measures.
Luo Feng didn’t act hastily. Instead, he found a corner on the first floor of the Cosmic Tower and began observing the statue.
Before long, Maria hurried out of the elevator with a group of bodyguards, her destination unknown.
Upon seeing Luo Feng, Maria hesitated for a moment but quickly sped up and left the area.
“It seems like they’re in some kind of trouble,” Luo Feng muttered to himself.
Just then, his phone buzzed. It was a message from Liu Jian.
“Boss, big news. The daughter of the chairman of Cosmos Tower is missing. The entire upper management is in a frenzy!”
The news startled Luo Feng.
The chairman’s daughter! If she had been kidnapped or met some other fate, it could potentially cause an uproar throughout Atlanta.
Luo Feng immediately searched for news on his phone, but found nothing about the chairman’s daughter.
Perhaps Cosmic Tower had managed to keep the news under wraps?
Luo Feng wondered, if he could find the chairman’s daughter now, would it be difficult to exchange this huge favor for the Maitreya Buddha statue?
While he was lost in thought, suddenly, for some unknown reason, everyone in the lobby fell silent and moved to the sides, clearing a path down the middle.
Unaware of the customs within Cosmos Tower, Luo Feng was still contemplating when he saw a man in a blue suit, surrounded by bodyguards, walking toward him.
He recognized the man from photos—it was Charlie, the chairman of Cosmic Tower. No wonder people cleared the path; after all, this man was arguably the most powerful and wealthy individual in Atlanta.
Luo Feng didn’t want to make a scene. But before he could step aside, one of the bodyguards aggressively grabbed him by the collar.
“Kid, are you asking for trouble? Move aside!”
The bodyguard tried to shove Luo Feng, only to find that he couldn’t budge him.
Initially, Luo Feng didn’t want to cause any issues, but since they were picking a fight, he had no reason to back down.

The bodyguard, feeling as if his dignity had been challenged, signaled for others to come forward and rough up Luo Feng.
Luo Feng remained calm, showing no signs of panic even with the looming threat.
Just as tensions were about to erupt, Charlie spoke.
“Stop.”
With that single command, Charlie approached Luo Feng.
His bodyguards immediately ceased their actions, waiting for further instructions from Charlie.
“Young man, who are you?” Charlie inquired.
“My name is Luo Feng. I’m quite interested in your statue of Maitreya Buddha. Would you be willing to part with it?” Luo Feng got straight to the point.
Charlie was already frustrated due to his missing daughter. Now, an unfamiliar young man wanted to buy his prized Maitreya Buddha statue?
“You just said you want to buy our totem, is that correct?” Charlie’s tone was
icy..
