Salute To The General

Chapter 2042



In just a while, Sage had the painting delivered to the Windsor residence.

Hansel and Camilla were not around to accept the gift.

Only Hansel's father, Horatio, was around.

The eighty-year-old, who was in the pink, was watering plants in the garden when Sage's men arrived.

He then accepted the gift on behalf of his son.

He then brought the painting back to the house and began to study the work of art.

Horatio had limited knowledge about paintings, so he called his butler, Syadin Tylass, over.

"Come and take a look at this painting," Horatio said, "It's a gift from one of Hansel's students, but I can't tell if it's good or bad."

Syadin studied the art piece closely and knitted his brows. He then shook his head and said, “The materials used in this painting seem fine, but I'm afraid it's a forgery."

Horatio opened his eyes wide. "How so?"

Syadin smiled and explained, "Because the original painting is with Mr. Clifford Davier, so this must be a fake."
