Caroline's Pink Diamond Adventure
After the phone call ended.
Adam said goodbye to Joey and the others and went to Max's apartment.
Nothing was said that night.
There are no omissions of one million words here.
After all, this is a pure love novel.
Moreover, Adam wasn't the kind of impatient, vulgar person.
Emmm.
The main reason was that Adam and Sheldon were good friends, and he learned some things from Sheldon, which subconsciously formed a subconscious idea.
That means it's absolutely unacceptable if a clear informed consent form isn't signed, even if the other party verbally agrees.
Because there are too many scams involving immortals in all the heavens and myriad realms.
Fortunately, Adam didn't suffer the same predicament as Sheldon, who was forcibly kissed by Amy.
That makes sense when you think about it.
Not everyone can be so open-minded.
People like MAX who start driving at the drop of a hat are extremely rare.
Moreover, the conditions of the bet were not triggered at all.
Max genuinely sympathized with Caroline's plight, and being kind-hearted, she was willing to offer Caroline any help she could.
However, this does not mean that Max has accepted Caroline as her sister.
Of course, Adam was a decent man and didn't care about these things.
Therefore, Adam only talked to Max about things that were not easy to say over the phone.
That's all.
Then, after saying goodbye to Caroline, who hadn't had a good night's rest and had red eyes, Adam left the MAX apartment to go to work.
In the blink of an eye, another week has passed.
That night.
"What's wrong with her?"
When Adam came over, he was surprised to find Caroline wiping away tears as she went into the bedroom.
I'm heartbroken.
MAX said helplessly, "There's an auction today, and all the items being auctioned off are from the Channing family. How could Caroline not be heartbroken to see those things that originally belonged to her being auctioned off one by one?"
"Hehe."
Adam laughed and said, "It's better to lose money than to suffer a disaster. Logically speaking, those things don't really belong to her, since many of them were bought for her by her father with money he swindled."
"Um."
MAX nodded. "I knew the Channing family was wealthy before, but after seeing this auction, I realized what true wealth is. They're rolling in money, it's unbelievable!"
"Not surprising."
Adam shrugged and said, "They are the true masters of this country."
"I have good news for you. Now is your perfect opportunity to take advantage of this situation."
MAX glanced at the bedroom and teased.
"I'm not that kind of person."
Adam remained unmoved.
Do you like Pink Diamond?
MAX glanced at him.
"You don't like it, so what?"
Adam had a sudden thought.
"Dislike?"
Max's eyes widened. "Pink Diamond are so beautiful, don't you like them?"
"Diamonds have little value."
Adam laughed and said, "It's just a single-element crystal formed by carbon under high temperature and pressure. It's not fundamentally different from carbon, and it's not rare at all. The current high price is just the result of diamond merchants' deliberate hype. It might collapse completely at any time. It doesn't have much collectible value."
"I see."
MAX laughed and said, "Then I'll use that as an excuse to comfort Caroline later."
At today's Channing family auction, Caroline's biggest disappointment was that her $24 million pink Pink Diamond was sold to someone else.
And the person who bought it was an African American rapper.
"Hehe."
Adam couldn't help but laugh, "What, is Caroline a racist?"
"No, that's not it."
MAX explained, "Caroline said that African-American rappers don't understand these things at all, and who knows how they might ruin her Pink Diamond if they buy it, and the probability of that is very high."
"Then you can tell her."
Adam chuckled knowingly, "I know what will happen after she gets her Pink Diamond."
"You know? How so?"
MAX asked curiously.
"That Pink Diamond will be set in the center of that African-American rapper's forehead, just like Vision in Marvel Comics."
Adam laughed and said, "Because he has already booked one of our hospital's top Renowned Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Sloan. Mark Sloan, to perform the implant surgery on him."
"Puff!"
MAX immediately sprayed water. "No way? You can do that?"
"That's how good they are at having fun!"
Adam sighed, "In two weeks, we will finish our year-long internship as interns, take the residency exam, and become full-fledged residents."
During this year, I have seen and learned a lot.
Moreover, I have read countless medical classics.
But I still can't face everything calmly.
Because this country is so magical, there are always strange people and strange things that people can't even imagine.
I've had two in just the last few weeks.
There was the panda twins first.
Later came the live-action version of Vision.
We doctors are always professional, but we just couldn't help it.
I never imagined that Caroline would be involved in this bizarre incident.
"No!"
MAX still couldn't believe it. "Isn't he afraid of being robbed if he does this? His abnormal mortality rate has skyrocketed to 99.9999%!"
"No one can convince a playful mind!"
Adam retorted, "And don't wealthy African Americans often do this?"
MAX was speechless.
Because of education issues, wealthy African Americans often become rich overnight through sports, music, or similar fields.
Money that wasn't earned through hard work is naturally spent without feeling the pinch.
Therefore, there are often news reports of various African American celebrities flaunting their wealth in various ways.
In such circumstances, it's natural to see news stories of African American celebrities going bankrupt in various ways, completely ruining their promising careers.
Most of them had no intention of making good use of the money to completely change their own and their family's class status, leaving behind only various ridiculous stories of sudden wealth and sudden poverty.
"But can this really be inlaid?"
MAX still can't imagine it.
"OK."
Adam explained, "First, a link is attached to the Pink Diamond as a support, and then the link is embedded in the forehead. Of course, there will be aftereffects such as pain, bleeding, and swelling, but it can be done if he likes it."
"He's really not afraid of being robbed."
MAX complained, "If he were to encounter Caroline and see his favorite Pink Diamond being treated like this, Caroline would most likely just go up and Pink Diamond it off."
"Fine."
Adam laughed and said, "Although he said he bought the Pink Diamond to carry with him in order to protect his property as much as possible, he obviously also considered the possibility of it being stolen, and bought a huge insurance policy for the Pink Diamond."
What's the use of buying insurance?
MAX scoffed, "There's a high chance they'll just be gone."
"It's alright."
Adam laughed and said, "Wealth redistribution, it's all still circulating within human society, it won't fly off to another planet."
"..."
MAX glanced at Adam: "You always say I'm sharp-tongued, but you're the real sharp-tongued one, okay!"
"You're still the one with the sharp tongue."
Adam laughed and said, "I love your sharp tongue the most."
MAX immediately rolled his eyes.
Not long after.
Lying on her bed in the bedroom, Caroline was heartbroken, but she became even more heartbroken and finally burst into tears.
Once she started crying, she couldn't stop.
She just felt that things were really too difficult for her.
