Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 668 Ancestral Craftsmanship

“It’s not your collection that was destroyed. But, of course, it’s easy for you to say that.” Jonas didn’t buy into his act at all. “Even if you want to be generous at the expense of others, you have to see if you have the right to!”

After ruining his treasure in his house, he was still expected to let it go. How was that possible?

Before this, Elise still held a little hope. She felt that anyone who knew how to appreciate her work must be good to get along with. But, now that she saw Jonas’ behavior, her fantasy was suddenly shattered.

Besides everything else, she was furious when she saw him attacking Alexander.

Elise suddenly removed Alexander’s hand that was holding her back and strode forward, then said bluntly, “It’s reasonable to compensate for the damage to your personal belongings according to the cost. We’ve apologized and promised to compensate, but you’re reluctant to forgive a girl and are rude to your guests. Is this how distinguished you are, Mr. Hymer?”

“Distinguished?” Jonas let out a sarcastic laugh. “Fine, I don’t want compensation. Let her restore the painting to its original state. Is that distinguished enough?”

“What’s done is done. Why do you have to force her to do something that’s beyond her power?” Elise asked dispassionately.

“So, you know that it’s something that’s beyond her power? I have a lot of money, but only one of these paintings exists. Every time the artist gets a burst of inspiration, it means the birth of a new life. If she destroys my painting, she’s committing murder!” The more Jonas spoke, the more emotional he became; even the blue veins on his forehead were bulging.

Stephanie lowered her head and had nothing to say. She reckoned she deserved to be scolded for the trouble she caused.

Jonas didn’t want the money; he wanted the painting. However, she ruined the painting and repairing it didn’t make much sense. The situation seemed to be frozen in this state.

Elise didn’t expect that Jonas would throw such a massive tantrum because of her painting. So it was rather hard for her to speak up for a while.

At this moment, Alexander put forward an idea. “Mr. Hymer, if you don’t mind, I have a few collections that aren’t bad. So you can go to my house and choose one to fill the vacancy. Plus, this lady’s compensation will make up for the loss. How about that?”

“If any painting can replace it, will there be any criminals who are executed by the law?” Jonas’ tone was harsh, and he refused to back down.
