Chapter 96 A Counterfeit

 

Hugo was sitting at the head of the table in traditional attire, a trace of imperiousness on his face.

 

 

Even when he saw Connor and the others approaching, his expression remained forbidding.

 

“Dad, I know you like paintings, so I expressly prepared a painting by Eugene Delacroix for you!” As the eldest son, Miguel was naturally the first person to step forward.

 

He opened a black rectangular box, revealing a painting by Eugene Delacroix inside.

 

 

 

“Thank you, Miguel.” Hugo nodded impassionately after seeing the gift Miguel prepared.

 

 

That painting by Eugene Delacroix could sell for at least a couple hundred thousand on the market. Something more expensive could even reach a million.

 

After Miguel had stepped back, Ezra stepped forward with a box in his hands.

 

 

 

“Dad, I prepared a painting for you as well!”

 

When the box was opened, a painting by Artemisia Gentileschi lay within. Just the name, Artemisia Gentileschi, meant that it was likewise worth a couple hundred thousand at the very least.

 

 

 

“Not bad.”

 

Once again, Hugo nodded approvingly.

 

At his nod, a flash of triumph unwittingly flickered in Ezra’s eyes. Subsequently, he turned his gaze to Connor and urged, “Why are you still standing there blankly? It’s your turn now!”

 

“Oh, okay.”

 

Connor hastily moved forward. Hugo merely glanced at him
