Chapter 69 Michael Showed Up

Brian was smooth with his words. He didn't put Chloe in the spotlight and still managed to boost his own standing. If his kid's friends could borrow paintings from Grant, wouldn't he be one proud dad? Everyone was really into Grant's art collection. They all waited eagerly at the exhibit, hoping to catch a glimpse of the famous paintings.

Michael's outburst left everyone in stunned silence. They all looked at him, confused.
