"Mom!" Savannah facepalmed. Do they need to do this now? Ida gave her a look that spelt, 'What? Let me speak.' RING! But before anyone could say a word, Savannah's phone rang. She lifted the phone and her smile disappeared when she saw the caller ID flashing on the phone screen. Without wanting to give away any sign, she forced a smile and excused herself, "I'll be right back. I have to answer this call... Mom, don't go overboard." "You..." Ida lifted her palm but Savannah already hurried away. "This silly child. Am I going to scare your husband off? I just have to let him know— Hey, where are you going?" She was surprised when Kian suddenly went after Savannah. Earlier when the latter raised her phone, he caught sight of the name on the screen. His brows furrowed as he wondered, 'What does the Wilson's family want now?' "That brat!" Ida snorted, oblivious to what was going on. "I haven't fully given away my daughter to him yet he can't stay away from her for a minute. How

The Wilson's family members led the couple to the top floor. Even the elevator was broken so they had to use the stairs. When they walked into the conference room, Oscar Gray was sitting with Edward, grandfather Wilson and the gallery's directors."Niece, you finally arrived!" Edward was the first person to notice their arrival and quickly stood to welcome them.As others followed suit, Oscar's eyes gleamed with a knowing glint when he saw Kian. He felt a hint of joy that Kian had followed Savannah just like he predicted."Niece, this is the gallery's vice president, Mr Garcia," Edward introduced with a tone of indulgence, making it seem like he was close with Savannah."He owns branches of art galleries abroad and took an interest in this gallery when he returned to settle home. If it wasn't because of his generous contributions, Radiance Gallery would have gone out of business long ago."Edward appeared grateful to Oscar as he spoke, making his words more convincing. "You flatter

"Hey! Who are you? How dare you talk so insensitively?" One of the staff yelled at Kian. The latter didn't seem to take offense to his words and simply sat up casually."I'm actually curious... Where exactly are you getting all this information seeing as you are all pretty quick to judge?"The smug expressions on the faces of the gallery's staff faltered and they hesitated to speak. Kian didn't miss the way they exchanged a look as if unsure of how to respond.Oscar watched quietly, a dark expression forming on his face slowly as the staff were unable to refute Kian's words. His eyes locked with one of the staff and he gave the man a cold glaring signal.The man quickly stepped up and stuttered, "It’s just... Everyone’s been talking. We’ve heard things.""Things? Or rumors?"Silence settled in the room as the staff shifted uncomfortably in their seats. Oscar's smirk was now barely noticeable as he gritted his teeth.Kian tapped his fingers on the table loudly, making some of the staff

When Savannah heard the receptionist's words, she trembled and her face turned pale. The receptionist wasn't particularly quiet so some of the guests heard her also. The word quickly spread around and glaring gazes were directed in Savannah's expression. "What a great gallery you have found for me this time! You even dared to deceive other people!" The old man on the stage sneered, aggravating the situation. At this point, someone switched on the cam and everyone could hear and see what was going on in the lobby on the big screen. Savannah gasped slightly when she saw the angry crowd. They were not fifty! They were hundreds! "Why don't you let us in and give us our refunds?!" "Selling fake oil paintings as original at a more expensive price than the original. Aren't you people scared of having your bladders rotten from guilt?!" "I bought so many paintings the last time thinking I struck gold but they turned out to be fake. Pay up!" "Radiance Gallery, you owe so much mo

Stunned silence settled over the hall as the crowds looked at each other in surprise. Did they hear him right? He wants to buy out all their companies? Haha! Every one of them present there were collectors for different distinguished art firms. These firms collaborated with prominent galleries and museums, not only in Valoria country but around the world. Now this nobody... A mere spokesman was talking so arrogantly, blatantly declaring that he was going to buy out their firms like it was a piece of cake. How ridiculous! "Bwahaha!" Laughter erupted in the hall as the crowd held their stomachs and looked at Kian like they were staring at a fool. To them, he was indeed foolish! "What did you say? You are going to acquire all our firms? How much do you get paid for being that man's spokesman?" Someone from the crowd snickered at Kian. "Wait... Is it because of the peanuts you are paid from that job that causes you to run off your mouth like this?" "If wishes were horses, ev
