Everyone in the room stared at the insignificant Michael. Michael always responds to everyone who belittles him in a relaxed manner, but Michael will punish them if they go too far.Alan suddenly had a cunning thought when he saw how the antiques master looked at Michael at this moment. Alan did not delay the opportunity to speak up and joined in insulting Michael in his own way."From Michael's words, what I understand is that he wants to examine Mr. Zefro's painting again because he doesn't believe the antique master's observations in this room," said Alan, teasing Michael subtly.Alan still remembers very clearly how that loser humiliated him at the event he hosted. Alan will never remain silent and let's just say this is Alan's way of getting revenge on Michael.Michael looked at Alan with a flat face. From the start, when Michael saw Alan at today's event, Michael seemed to be able to guess that Alan would find a way to insult him and also humiliate Michael. Alika, who saw the h
Michael didn't want all the antique masters in this room to look bad at him, even more so he didn't want Alan's plan to embarrass him to succeed. Alan kept looking for trouble with him, who knows how long the man will stop bothering him, maybe waiting for Alan to find out the real identity that Michael is hiding."I really never thought of underestimating the kind of antiquities expert you have in mind. I intend to buy the painting and for that reason, I want to examine the painting," Michael said matter-of-factly. Michael tried to defend himself from the slander that Alan was trying to tell everyone."Loser! What are you talking about, where did you get the money to buy that painting," Alika said fiercely, immediately stating what was in her mind. Alika spoke in a low voice so as not to attract other people's attention.Harry, who thought his daughter's words were correct, nodded his head before speaking. "What Alika just said is true, Michael, where did you get the money to buy the
The antique auction room which previously seemed quiet was now filled with laughter disdainful for Michael. Alika could only lower her head with both hands tightly clenched into fists. Alika tried to hold back the shame and mixed emotions that were now covering her body because of Michael's behavior. If only he hadn't come to tonight's event, Alika wouldn't have felt as embarrassed as she did now."Look, everyone is laughing at that man," Alika said to her father, his existence the same as a joke to many people."Alika, Dad can also see that everyone is laughing at Michael," Harry said, confirming what his daughter had just said. Harry didn't even respond to Alika's words the way the woman wanted, making Alika even more annoyed with her father.Alika couldn't talk much anymore, for some reason she felt very annoyed because her father seemed to be defending Michael, for some reason her father's attitude had changed like this, especially since Michael gave him an antique gift for his f
Everyone hated Michael even more after listening to the man so easily ask Harry to pay for the painting he bought. The antique master thought that Michael was not only arrogant, but he was also shameless. It turns out that the rumors circulating about the Hoonsen family having useless sons-in-law were true, now Michael's impression in front of all the important people in this room is only getting worse.Alan grinned sarcastically when he found out that Michael didn't have any money, that loser must have just been haphazardly bidding and by chance Mr. Zefro accepted his offer, yes, it must be for that reason that Michael asked his father-in-law to pay for the painting. Alan also thinks that Michael is nothing, he is just an arrogant loser who doesn't have any abilities. Alan still remembers very clearly when he saw Michael talking intimately with Mr. Frank, who was his boss at the office."That loser deliberately took advantage of his father-in-law's connections to get close to Mr. Fra
"Michael, now explain to me why I had to buy that useless painting," said Harry with firmness in his eyes. Harry of course had to ask clearly so that he didn't waste his money."Father, you have to believe me. I feel that there is a mystery in the painting. I felt there was something in the painting when I tapped on the painting," said Michael explaining to his father-in-law, but not in too much detail. Harry didn't really believe what Michael explained, with a raise of one eyebrow the man said again. "What is in that painting?" Harry asked with a probing look."After we buy the painting, then we will find out what is hidden in Mr. Zefro's painting," said Michael, who did not explain in detail because Michael also did not know what was inside the painting. But Michael had a feeling that something very valuable was hidden in there.Actually, Harry didn't want to buy the painting, Michael couldn't explain in detail what mysterious things were in Mr. Zefro's painting. However, Harry th
The room which was previously busy with the voices of people who kept insulting and belittling Michael now started to look quiet, quiet as if there were no occupants. Everyone in the room stared at the brocade painting that Michael had just torn apart, none of them suspected that Mr. Zefro's painting actually contained an ancient painting.Alika made a shocked face when she saw what was hidden inside. But Alika still looked at Michael with deep hatred. "Is this the reason you knocked on the painting before? Are you trying to ascertain what is in the painting you want to bid on?" asked an antique master while raising one eyebrow, starting to feel curious about what was going on in Michael's mind at the moment."You're absolutely right, that's the reason I knocked on the painting. Because this unusual action made me look bad at the antique masters in this place," said Michael, trying to dismiss everyone's thoughts about him being arrogant.Michael saw the faces of everyone who previous
"I never headed towards you Mr. Zefro," Michael said with a straight face. "You knew from the start that there was another painting hidden in the painting, but you deliberately didn't tell me that. Isn't that called cheating," said Zefro in a voice that came out from between his clenched teeth. "Of course that can't be called cheating, I'm sure everyone in this room also has the same thoughts as me," said Michael firmly in front of everyone. "I won't sell the painting to you," said Zefro selfishly after he learned the value of the ancient painting."You can't do this to me, Mr. Zefro! My father-in-law has transferred the amount of money we agreed on to your account. Everyone in this room also saw that the painting was mine." Michael looked around at everyone who nodded their heads in agreement with what Michael had just said. Lian couldn't let the event he had organized tonight fall apart, Lian immediately stepped closer to Zefro and tried to mediate the disagreement between the t
Michael felt very happy because his father-in-law made a lot of profit from selling these ancient paintings. Michael feels that it was not in vain that he learned the art of observing antiques from his teacher. It turns out that the knowledge he has learned can now provide great benefits to his father-in-law.Harry didn't expect that coming to this event would increase his savings quite a lot, it wasn't in vain that Harry invited Michael to come along with him. If only Michael had not convinced him to give him the painting, Harry would never have gained so much profit in a short time. Harry started to think about inviting Michael to several events like this, who knows, Michael could give him the same benefits as today."I will transfer half of the money to you after getting payment," Harry whispered near Michael's ear. Harry didn't want to take all the profits for himself because it would look like he was taking advantage of Michael.Michael turned to his father-in-law and said, "Jus
Country A"Did Michael tell Dad where he was going for the next two days?" Alea asked after sitting down in front of her father-in-law."Michael just said that if he was going out of town, he said he had something important to do," said Johan in response."Grandfather, Mother... there was an old woman who said that Father's real name was not Michael Lu, but Maike Lusson, is that true?" Kayla asked while looking at Johan and Alea alternately.Alea and Johan looked at each other, then the two people immediately walked over to Kayla with faces looking equally panicked.“How do you know that, Kayla?” Alea asked.“From social media.”In city BThe journalists' cameras continued to focus on Michael's face, this news has even trended on social media, becoming the hottest news that is currently viral."You won't be able to avoid it anymore Maike, we have revealed your true identity," said the fans confidently.It seems like fans and grandmothers forgot that Michael was the investor who saved
Country BMichael looked around, he saw that this restaurant was very busy, this was not a five star restaurant, so Michael didn't feel anything strange and thought everything was normal. To cover his identity, Michael disguised himself as he did at that time, using a wig and a thick mustache.Michael looked at Luna, Grandma and also the fans who were walking towards him. There was nothing suspicious about them, because the fans looked relaxed while the grandmother smiled kindly, only Luna's face looked tense. However, Michael couldn't be careless, he still had to be alert."Has Master been waiting for a long time?" Grandma asked as she stretched out her hand first.After getting up, Michael shook the hand of the head of the Lusson family. Michael was a little surprised when the middle-aged woman actually grabbed Michael's hand and hugged him. Michael's heart pounded in surprise, but Michael was able to hide this nervousness behind his flat face."I just came too," said Michael after
Luna stepped into the house, she gave up her intention of going upstairs when she saw her mother waving her hand, asking Luna to sit between them, Luna could see the expressions on her father and mother's faces who looked anxious, as if something was making their hearts anxious and who knows what.After Luna sat down, her father and mother's attention was focused on her, making Luna feel uncomfortable, their gaze seemed intimidating, making Luna scared and horrified, but Luna hid all these feelings behind the smile she was now showing them."What did you call Luna for?" asked Luna with an innocent face."Luna, have you been causing trouble at the Lusson company in the last few days?" asked Luna's father firmly and intimidatingly.Luna shook her head slowly before answering. “No, Dad. "Everything went smoothly," said Luna, quickly dismissing the accusations of her favorite tough guy."Aren't you lying or hiding something from us, Luna?" asked Mrs. Luna with a deeply furrowed brow.Luna
City BAlmost all members of the Lusson family gathered in the big house, except Luna's family and Luna herself. The fan was standing in front of everyone, he turned on the projector which was directly connected to the big screen in front of him, all the members of the Lusson family stared with tense faces, as if they were all about to watch a horror film.The middle-aged woman who was the head of the Lusson family stared seriously at the big screen, her heart beating unsteadily, the old woman also held her breath because she was tense."I saw the man up close, I even captured it on video, I believe one hundred percent that he is Maike, the son of Uncle Johan who was rumored to have died a long time ago, you can observe the face and body shape of this man named Michael to prove the truth of what he said. what I just said." Fans spoke with strong confidence that radiated from their eyes.Yes, the mysterious man is Michael. After investigating and seeing Michael up close, Fans immediate
Currently everyone was looking at Michael and Noan who were standing on the stage in order to observe the weight of the raw gemstones in front of them. The two men looked very serious about observing the raw rock, it was not easy and required god-level skills to examine the weight of the gemstone significantly, in fact everyone in this place kept their mouths tightly shut, not wanting to disturb their two champions who were trying. Observe the large rock in front of you.After confirming the weight of the new gemstone, Michael and Noan also said the figure for the weight of the original gemstone. The host immediately recorded the answers of the two.Two trained stone carvers walked over, carving the stone very carefully with the tools they brought. After completing their task, the two workers immediately gave the presenter a real gemstone.Shut up!Everyone felt tense because most people chose Michael and a small number of others chose Noan as the winner of the gambling this time. The
Some people in the upper class were amazed when they saw Michael's presence in this room, even some gemstone entrepreneurs also greeted Michael, they were people who had participated in gemstone gambling some time ago and saw Michael's amazing skills.Sophia continued to walk beside Michael, she felt proud to have a great son-in-law like Michael. In the past, Sophia would have chosen to walk in front of or behind Michael. High caste can indeed change other people's attitudes so easily, for example like now.The event was about to begin, some people chose to take a close distance to the stage so that they could more easily observe the gemstone gambling, while Michael and the Honsen family chose to stand in the middle of the crowd, because Michael was not interested in watching at close range."Michael, don't you want to join the gemstone gambling," said Alika while watching Michael who was still silent, not responding."I'm not interested, I just want to see," said Michael casually whi
Michael had just gotten out of the car, when the sound of a car park guard's shout stopped his footsteps."You shouldn't park your car in this place," the parking guard said while shooting a sharp gaze at Michael.Yes, not everyone in this country knows that Michael is the owner of the Alka Group company. Likewise with this parking guard."Why can't I put my private car in this place?" Michael asked the parking guard with a straight face.Michael could very clearly see the parking guard snorting harshly, like a bull ready to be fought in the dueling arena.“Is your vision no longer working! You can't see that only expensive and luxurious cars can get VIP parking spots.” The parking guard spoke while looking around.Michael also looked around and he agreed with what the parking attendant said. His car is indeed the ugliest among the others. However, Michael always felt comfortable appearing modest like this."You shouldn't look at people physically and materially, sometimes what you se
Michael stepped down the stairs of this house wearing neat clothes complete with his favorite leather jacket.Alea looked at Michael with a frown. Before walking over to her husband, Alea first put the laptop on the table."Where's Kayla?" Michael asked Alea after he looked around and couldn't find their little daughter."Kayla is in her room," said Alea without taking her eyes off Michael at all.“Is he doing schoolwork alone again?” Michael asked with one eyebrow raised.Lately Kayla really likes doing schoolwork alone, because Kayla considers herself to be a big girl and doesn't want to bother her parents who are tired after a long day at work. Kayla is indeed a child who has mature thoughts and is also intelligent."No, he just bought a new storybook and is focused on reading so he doesn't want me to disturb him," Alea said to her husband."He's a lot like you, likes reading." Michael spoke while looking at his wife's beautiful face.Alea always looks beautiful even though she doe
Michael stepped into the room his father was being treated in. He saw Kayla joking with her father, but their attention was diverted after Michael entered."Dad came home from work early today, did you bring Kayla chocolate?" asked the little boy with his eyes sparkling with hope.Kayla walked over to Michael and then held his father's hand. Michael took out a bar of his daughter's favorite chocolate."Dad, just bring one bar of chocolate. You can't get hurt by eating too much chocolate because it's not good for your teeth," said Michael, explaining to his daughter."Kayla knows," said the little boy. "Thank you dad." After speaking, Kayla kissed the back of one of Michael's hands as a sign of thanks.After receiving the chocolate that Michael gave, Kayla walked over to the sofa and enjoyed a bar of her favorite chocolate. Kayla is allowed to eat chocolate once a month and once a week she can eat ice cream with low sugar content. Michael and Alea are very selective about the food thei
