Chapter 56

Hera was secretly unhappy as she got that artwork from Iono Aoki for a hefty fifty million and it was clearly a very valuable piece. The thought of letting the Cornells have it just like that upsetted her, especially when Katherine was smiling so smugly now. It was the look of someone that got a good deal, which annoyed her even more.

Still, no matter how displeased she was, she still had to maintain her smile albeit a frozen one.

Meanwhile, Joaquin looked at Katherine somewhat surprisingly.

Being the one that knew his stepmother the best, he understood that she was extremely stingy to the point where she would not give out a single item from her collection even on Elizabeth's birthday. He did not think that she would be so generous as to give her Iono Aoki's personal work.

Looking at Katherine again, he switched his attention to focus on Hera's expression. Joaquin suddenly felt his spirits lifted upon seeing that his stepmother had to maintain her facade even though she was absolutely livid inside.

"Kathy, how can we receive such a valuable gift from Madam Levisay?" Rosemary finally had a chance to speak and reminded her sister.

"Oh, Rose. This gift is not meant for me; it's for our father. This valuable artwork signifies the close relationship our families share." Katherine looked at Rosemary with a weird gaze while explaining seriously.

Hearing that, Rosemary dared not speak another word as her expression changed. After this exchange, Hera started to look at her in a completely different light.

Katherine, who made an excuse to leave due to her father's birthday, went back with Rosemary in the Levisays' car.

As soon as they entered the car, Rosemary immediately darkened her expression and glared at her sister. "Are you doing this on purpose, Katherine?"

"Doing what on purpose?" Katherine questioned back, perplexed.

"You know that I wanted to continue staying at the Levisays, but you intentionally made me leave. Aren't you doing this on purpose?" Rosemary nearly wanted to slap her.
