The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu

The only guest who never said a word is Frank.

However, as everyone else turned toward Frank, Hugh spoke before he could. "Hah! What would some ignorant manwhore know about art? Even if he knows a thing or two, he still wouldn't be able to afford it." Hugh's scoffing drew several chuckles in the room, since 'manwhore' made the insult all too obvious.

However, Frank remained calm as he looked at the other guests and asked quietly, "Are you done laughing? If you are, I will share my opinion."

"Of course, young sir. You may speak freely."

Travis was surprised that Frank did not make a bid, and instead spoke up to share his opinion.

Was he going to accuse him of selling a fake?

As if on cue, Frank turned toward the painting beside Travis as everyone looked on, nodding as he said, "That painting isn't genuine... Or it's half-genuine, to be precise."

"Hahaha!!!" Hugh was laughing first and very loudly.

The other guests were chuckling too, while Travis appeared shocked for a moment before frowning in annoyance.

Did that kid come to smear Jade Dragon's good name?

"Frank Lawrence."

In fact, Mr. Richton, the gentleman beside me here, is the most famous appraiser in the East Coast. And if they can't see that it's a fake while you can, don't you think you're stretching it?! Don't you find
