Chapter 19 The Famous Painting

"Heh, although I'm not the young master of the Crossword family anymore, even a dog knows how to greet its owners." Sett smirked.

The hot-tempered guard was stunned.

If he really punched Sett, wouldn't that mean he was worse than a dog? Also, the family head would surely punish him if words got out.

Just imagine what would people say? A guard was hitting a young master of the Crossword family that he was working for...

By then, he could kiss his job goodbye!

"I.."

The hot-tempered guard stuttered.It was like he was poured down with a cold bucket.

He quickly let go of Sett while apologizing profusely.He still had his family to feed, so he couldn't afford to lose his job.It was at this moment that a Lamborghini came speeding toward them.

Stopping beside Sett and the shell-shocked guards, it was not the end of their surprise as a gorgeous lady suddenly came out.

"Ms.Scarlett?"

Sett did not expect that it was her.

"Mr.Crow, I really apologize for being late.I almost forgot to give you the VIP card.I hope you don't take it against me, as I didn't anticipate that the president would buy the entire entertainment industry! Sigh,

now my hands are full.By the way, young master, since you have a driver's license, I bought this car for you just in case you need to travel for leisure, and you don't have to worry about driving it since it has automatic functions.Isn't it impressive?"

Ms.Scarlett said with a smile.

On the other hand, Sett was speechless.

Yes, his grandfather Mark was rich, but it didn't mean she could just buy a million-dollar Lamborghini like it was nothing!

"Mr.Crow, are you worried that this car is not expensive enough? Don't worry, Mr.Crow, this is nothing.You can even throw it away if you don't like this model, and we can just buy a new one! How about we buy a limited-edition Lambo? I heard they are selling it in this city."иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σм

Ms.Scarlett said those words like she was just buying garbage from a market.

"Brother, who is this pretty sister?" Nini uttered while blinking her eyes.

"Brother, is she your new girlfriend?"

"Haha, what are you saying, Nini? I'm already married, so it's not possible.....Ms.Scarlett, it isn't convenient for me to converse here.Let's go inside the car."

Sett spoke as he noticed the guards gawking in his direction.Some were even taking pictures secretly of the Lamborghini.

"Alright Mr.Crow, let's go." Ms.Scarlett said as she handed the key to Sett.

Shortly after they left the place.

At this point, Sett didn't notice that Amanda and Xander were at the scene.They had just arrived to witness the lady handing a key to Sett.He immediately guessed it was Lamborghini's car keys.

They had wanted to stop them but were too shocked to even move, doubtful of what they saw.

How could that useless person, good for nothing, own such a car? It was no ordinary car! It was a high- class Lamborghini and its market value...

Xander and Amanda gritted their teeth in envy.

"Is that pig cousin of ours that Lambo, brother Xander?" Amanda said as she frowned.

"Humph, I won't believe that guy is that capable...I guess he just rented that Lamborghini to show off.Tsk."

Xander gave a cold remark.

"you're right, Brother Xander, there's no way.That he owns that Lamborghini, but brother, even if he is merely leasing that Lambo, it would still cost a fortune, and that lady looks like a celebrity..." All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Amanda murmured, truthfully, that the lady was the most beautiful woman she had seen to date.

On the other hand, she didn't notice that Xander's face had turned black; he was about to explode in jealousy.

Gradually, he managed to suppress his ranging emotions.

"Let's go back I'll explain to Grandpa what happened here."

Meanwhile, outside the mansion, the guests were beginning to be curious about the gift that Ms.

Jasmine had brought, and the family head, Francisco, was thinking that it wouldn't be good if he left the big-shot guests hanging.

"Ahem, how about we examine this painting first? What do you say, Dr.Hutton?"

The family head, Francisco, suggested with a smile, and truthfully speaking, he was also interested in finding out about the gift and looking at its wrapping and its shape, it was certainly a portrait or a painting.

"Alright, since it's the request of the Crossword patriarch, I could only agree."

Dr.Hutton replied, without putting too much thought into it.

When he suddenly heard a shout, he was just a moment away from unwrapping the gift.

"Wait!"

Everyone subconsciously turns to look.

Everyone could see Director Lowell, who had offered a contract to the family head earlier.He was pushing his way through.

"I'll be the arbitrator.Although I haven't done appraisals for quite a while now, I believe I'm quite capable of judging merchandise, and since portraits and paintings are among my favorites, I can say that I'm confident."иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σм

Director Lowell smugly talked, and then helped unwrap the gift.

When it was half done, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, and after it was completely revealed, everyone's eyes darted at the painting, fascinated by its artistry.

Director Lowell breathed sharply.He glanced at Mr.Tom, who was frowning, first, then back at the painting.

".....Looking from this angle and its color, it's a fake."

"It's fake? There's no way it's a fake! Didn't Ms.Jasmine deliver it personally?"

Someone among the distinguished guests commented on the side.

At this point, everyone was startled.

Was it really fake, just like what the expert said? However, considering that it came from the word of Director Lowell, they started to doubt whether the painting was genuine.

Their belief was wavering.

"Father, my hunch was right! How could it be possible for your grandson, Sett, to get that much money to purchase this painting? " Mr.Tom laughed uncontrollably.

Everyone at the event was shaking their heads.It was a letdown.

The family head, Francisco, had a gloomy expression.

He was angry that his grandson had brought a fake gift for him.He was sure that people would start talking behind his back? He would be a laughing stock.It was a disgrace to his name! The tension in the air was building up.

"I'm telling you guys it's fake!" Mr.Tom continues to laugh crazily.

"Is it?"

Unexpectedly, Dr.Hottun's lips turn into a curve.As he stares straight at the face of Director Lowell, the director's boisterous laughter comes to a halt.
