The Billionaire CEO Wants to Marry Me Every Day-Chapter 437: Tracking

Mason Monroe’s back stiffened, and he turned around slowly, forcing a laugh as he said, "I’m going to the library to read a bit, hoping to get into graduate school. That way, I can be more deserving of Coralie."

"Is that so..." The butler drawled, then smiled and said, "Make sure not to overwork yourself, come back early."

"Alright." Mason forced a smile, quickly turning to leave.

What he didn’t notice was that the instant he turned, the smile and concern on the butler’s face vanished, replaced by a cold expression.

The butler pulled out his phone, dialed Evan Hughes, and said, "Sir, you were right. As soon as you left, he did too."

On the other end, Evan Hughes’s cold laugh could be heard: "Heh... Did someone follow him?"

"Yes, they’re following. Provide the coordinates, I’ll personally see what he’s up to."

"Yes!"

...

About half an hour later, Mason Monroe arrived in front of a jewelry pawnshop.

He glanced around, confirming that no one was watching him, then stepped inside.

The pawnshop owner adjusted his reading glasses and asked, "Sir, are you here to buy jewelry or pawn it?"

"Are you the owner?" Mason asked.

The owner nodded, "Yes, are you pawning something?"

"I have some quality goods. Let’s see how much I can pawn it for." Mason said as he carefully pulled a palm-sized Jade Buddha out of his backpack.

The pawnshop owner glanced at it, immediately looking excited.

"You want to pawn this to me?"

Mason placed the Jade Buddha in front of the owner, directly asking, "Take a look at this, how much can I get?"

The owner took out a special lamp for inspecting jade, muttering to himself, "This is clearly cut from the finest material, with such rich color and excellent quality..."

Mason couldn’t understand the jargon, so he asked again, "Just tell me, how much can you offer?"

The owner fell silent. Considering its size and quality, even as raw material it could fetch a million, not to mention the masterful carving.

He looked up at Mason, seeing he wasn’t someone particularly wealthy, and suspiciously asked, "Where did you get this? I don’t accept items with unknown origins here."

Mason swallowed and said, "Don’t worry, I took it from my own home. My wife is sick and we need a lot of money, so I have to pawn it. I’ll redeem it when I have the money in the future."

But the owner was still skeptical.

Someone who can afford such an item wouldn’t be pawning it just because of an illness.

He was almost certain the item was of dubious origin, but he couldn’t refuse business that came to him. Moreover, the young man in front of him seemed inexperienced, easy to underprice.

The owner spoke directly, "Three million, no more. Although this Jade Buddha looks decent, the carving isn’t that good for resale, I might..."

But before the owner could finish his excuse, Mason nodded directly: "Alright, three million, transfer it to my card now."

"Ha..." The owner rejoiced. Even sold cheaply, it could fetch tens of millions, and yet this man agreed to three million.

He’s either a fool or it’s a stolen Jade Buddha.

But once the item reached him, there were ways to sell it cleanly.

"Wait a moment! I’ll gather money from the accounts of a few other branches, and transfer it to you right away!"

As the owner was about to make a call outside, he opened the door and suddenly saw several dozen men in black suits standing there.
