Chapter 12 Saved the Nelson Family From a Huge Embarrassment

A hush fell over the room.

Charmaine, known for her lack of education, had just used a term so sophisticated that the entire Nelson family was taken aback/

Milo was the first to break the silence, his laughter filled the room. “Charmaine? An expert? That’s rich! You can barely pass a class, let alone identify an antique.”

Even the house staff covered their mouths, struggling to stifle their laughter.

Everyone knew about Charmaine’s past; it was an absolate joke!

Charmaine shrugged. “If you don’t believe me, get a professional to examine it,”

“Professional? Ha! Leah bought this from a renowned collector! The original owner didn’t even want to sell it at first, but Leah’s persistence paid off. Do you really think an expert would mistake a fake for the real deal?”

Charmaine chuckled, her words carrying a pointed edge.

Milo choked on his words, and everyone’s expressions turned sour.

Valda’s face lit up with joy. “Quickly, bring her in!”

Then, she shot Charmaine a meaningful look. “Tara comes from a family of collectors, steeped in the world of art from a young age. If you don’t believe us, let Tara give her verdict!”
