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!”
