Last Updated:
2021-09-01 23:17:01Nicko remained silent and inched backwards, not because he didn’t want to show his gift. It only took him a moment to think about the painting he bought at the auction.
“How can this painting be the same? Did I get a fake painting?” Nicko thought, trying to analyze.
Quickly, the young man asked Russell to investigate the auction yesterday. He must make sure that the goods he buys are genuine.

Adrian also stopped the praise that was given to him. He wanted them to save the praise for him until they saw the gift Josephine’s doll husband had given her. He pretended to ask about the gift given to Mrs. Elizabeth Windsor.
“Madam,I saw Josephine and her husband come with gifts, but where are they? Did they mean to hide the gifts?” Adrian asked. Grandma who heard Adrian’s words, just sneered sarca

Everyone looked surprised. Some even whispered to comment on the gift from Nicko. Including Josephine herself kept a question in her heart.“How can there be the same prize? Didn’t Mueler die after painting The Fountain?” Josephine thought.“Hey loser, how can you give a fake present to grandma, do you mean to insult Grandma Elizabeth?” Damian exclaimed suddenly.Everyone who surrounded Nicko and Josephine agreed with Damian’s statement. It’s no secret that every famous work must have a replica, because the works of the maestro did not have the copyright like today.Josephine herself looked surprised and disappointed with her husband’s choice. The white-skinned woman turned pale. She didn’t know how else to respond to the situation.“Nick, why did you give grandma a fake pain

All eyes turned to Nico. Some are curious, some are looking down on it. But Josephine’s husband remained unmoved to see their attitude.“Huh, what method do you offer? No need to make it up,” Daisy replied.“Already let this loser tell us all how to prove this painting is real or fake!” Elizabeth, the grandmother, trying to intervene.Nicko smiled again and made the other members of the Windsor family even more sick to see him. But not Josephine. As her husband challenged with confidence, his anger faded. This time, Josephine was sure that her husband had a surprise.This blonde haired woman slowly lifted her head and smiled confidently like her husband.“That’s easy,” Nicko said then glanced at his wife then at the Windsor family members one by one.“Jo, pleas

“H... How could the painting didn’t get burn? You must cheat!” Damian exclaimed and breaking the silence.The media for the painting is a flammable object. It will be strange if it does not burn when in contact with fire. Unless the object uses a fire-resistant coating that was commonly used hundreds of years ago.“Surely you didn’t stick a match in your painting!” Damian, who was agreed by almost all the invitees, added.Except for Adrian who looks clumsy. The rich man just looked left and right, occasionally scratching his head which didn’t itch.“Damn, I can lose at this rate. Huh, I hope no one asks me to burn this painting. Hopefully no one believe that what the loser brought is real,” Adrian thought.Damian rudely snatched Nicko’s painting along with the lighter immedia

Damian immediately turned to the Grandmother after receiving a blow from her staff. He really didn’t understand what the old woman meant by this time.“Grandma, why did you hit me?” he asked innocently.The woman in power within the Windsor family stomped her wand on the floor. Her gray eyes gazed at him.“You should have done the same thing as what Adrian brought. You burned the parasite’s property in the Windsor family and it didn’t work. You should have thought of something.”Damian just frowned, he doesn’t understand what the grandmother meant.“You can’t draw conclusions. You should check Adrian’s too!” Grandma ordered.Adrian who heard Grandma Elizabeth’s request, immediately changed the subject. Suddenly he told how he took part i

Adrian immediately took a cold drink and guessed it. He pretended not to hear what was being said at the moment. While Catherine was confidently showing the back of the painting and also the barcode there.“Now what? Do you guys still want to burn this painting to prove whose painting is fake,” Catherine said.Seeing Cathy’s current attitude against the Windsor family, Damian sneered at her.“He has drugged you, haven’t you, Cathy? To have to defend this trash man?” Damian asked, pointing at Nicko.“So what? He’s innocent. He’s tried his best to give Grandma the best gift possible, and to prove that the painting is real. Not like some deceitful man who says he comes from a respectable family, but gives a fake gift to Grandma, the most respected woman in this family,” Catherine replied.&nb

Daisy’s eyes rounded immediately when she saw the old lady handing the key to the villa to her son-in-law. Secretly, she imagined herself in the new villa. Daisy always felt at home in the villa for a long time. The villa, which is near to the beach, is four times the area where he lives now.Elizabeth’s villa even has a private pool, equipped with four bedrooms and a maid’s room. Plus, the family room is quite spacious, complete with luxurious furniture.Slowly, the woman drew closer to her son-in-law and glanced at Adrian with disdain.“Nicko, I didn’t think you could get such a beautiful gift for grandma. This is an original work that must have cost a lot of money,” Daisy said with a grin.The woman didn’t want to know how Nicko got the money to buy a gift for Elizabeth. What is on his mind right now is how to

The sanction of freezing the account because the damaged card.“Huh, who wants to ruin a gold card. I have to get out of here immediately,” he thought.However, the Goddess of Fortune is not on the side of this blonde-haired man. Josephine caught him and drew the attention of the others.“Adrian, where are you going?” Josephine called, and almost shouting.Inevitably, the others turned their heads towards him, and the one who was called stopped.“Where are you going Adrian?” Josephine repeated.

Nicko saw that the house still looked messy. He immediately put down his car keys and changed into home clothes to do his job. But just as he was about to pick up the cleaning kit, someone grabbed his shoulder.“What do you want Nick?”It was Daisy, his mother-in-law, who spoke in a friendly and polite tone this time. Very different from the daily.“Of course I’m going to clean the house. Weren’t we in such a rush this morning that I didn’t have time to do it?” Nicko asked to confirm.“Yes, you’re right, this house looks dirty. But you don’t need to bother cleaning it. You just relax in your room. I’ve contacted the house cleaning service and ordered food for us to have dinner together,” Daisy said.Nicko knew the woman in front of him had ulterior motives. I stro

"So this is your doing?" asked Nicko angrily. This time her face was red and her eyes were staring intently ahead."Ha ha ha why? Does this sound painful to you? It's good that this sounds painful to you. At least this way you will know who you are dealing with, and you can think again about betraying my daughter!”Watson, you! Nicko rage. This time he was really angry that he couldn't say anything else. His hands began to clench tightly and cursed at the man who called him. No one ever thought that Robert Watson, Camilla's father, was involved in kidnapping his wife and child now.“You bastard Watson, what do you want! I warned you that I would never betray your daughter. It was just a silly game in childhood!” Nick replied.“Silly childhood game you say? It's a shame that until now my daughter still expects you and I still think of you as my son-in-law.

The man Josephine knew folded his arms across his chest and walked over to Josephine. "You wanna know why I'm here? Of course because I want to meet you sweetheart.”Of course, that man was Gerlad Jones, the most selfish man Josephine had ever known.“Aren't you tired of bothering me all the time? Don't you already know that you and I are no longer related?" Josephine replied curtly.Gerald immediately crouched down and leveled his position with Josephine. This time he gently touched Josephine's cheek and disgusted her former lover.Josephine seemed to push away Gerald's hand which kept trying to touch her. The more Josephine dodged the more he liked to tease her.“Your skin is still smooth and soft, only now you are a little different. You seem a bit stocky. Is it possible that you're already pregnant with that jerk's child?” asked Gerald as he whispered in Josephine's ear and started licking it.Josephine shuddered in horror, she almost admitted that she was now pregnant.

Now they also thought of taking a break, after all last night Jo had said that she wanted to share.With the help of Owen and Jacklyn, they spread out a table and put some food boxes there which will be given to anyone who needs them for free. This time it wasn't just Jo who looked so happy, but also Ian, because he hadn't spent time with his adoptive father in a long time.As soon as Nicko finished clearing the table and putting down some food, a middle-aged woman in shabby clothes came up to them. Judging from the clothes he was wearing, he seemed to be a homeless person."Sir, is this given for free?" the woman ask

At this time Andrew Young really pressed. He really didn't expect that he would suffer such a fate.The person he once underestimated suddenly turned things around in just a few minutes. In the past, he underestimated the Watson family because they had an economy class below him.Especially with Nicko, he had never taken the young man into account at all. Precisely thinks Nicko is like a pest that must be eradicated immediately. But now he is the pest. Even Chuck who became his ally also blamed him.“Chuck, you don't think about me anymore? Don't you remember our previous good relationship?" asked Master Young in a voice that sounded quivering with sorrow.Chuck shook his head and said again, “Didn't you hear what my uncle said earlier? We Watsons absolutely do not welcome a liar. Now you better get out of here!”"Chuck you,—" Andrew no longer continued his words. Instantly his lips were numb and could not say anything else.It was then that Mr. Watson immediately called his housekeep

Andrew Young's body suddenly felt stiff and weak. Now he has no money anymore and it hurts a lot. Now that he heard the news that his youngest son had committed suicide, his life was completely ruined at this point.With unsteady steps, he walked towards the stage again. At that time he had seen the ravaged state. Everything was full of trash and no one was there.He walked unsteadily, but suddenly a waiter came to chase him, "Sorry Mr. Young, this is the bill for tonight's event!"It was then that Andrew Young immediately patted his forehead and muttered that he had almost forgotten the bill he had to pay off. When renting this place, he only paid half of the total banking services ordered by him.Currently, he can still breathe a sigh of relief because, in his account balance, there is still money remaining for the cost of paying off this event. But after that, he didn't know what to do. Not even sure I could buy a plane ticket back to Northern Hill.The only way back to Northern Hi

Andrew Young was struck by the statement of his former bodyguard. What's more, they actually restrained him and made him no longer able to move and bait the people who were now hunting him.In fact, now that he's really stuck, no one can help him. Wanted to scream and ask Matthew for help but now the young man is not with him anymore. Then, Mr Watson, he should be a man he can rely on. While Chuck is actually an ally of his. But their positions were too far away and it was impossible for her to scream.Even if he had shouted for their help, before Chuck had come here he would have been battered and bruised.Now all he could do was bully his former bodyguard again into protecting him. The bodyguards he had dismissed were a bunch of chubby bums. By giving them even a glimmer of hope, they would definitely move to protect him, no matter how difficult the obstacles he had to face.“Hey you guys, quickly save me! Do your duty as a bodyguard. Don't act stupid and piss me off so you guys tot

He kept calling her and asking her to come back.But unfortunately, when he just got off the stage he was intercepted by several people who had bought the medicine.One of them is Mr. Austin. He stood holding out his hand and blocking her from leaving. "Where are you going? Immediately take responsibility for what you have done to us! Give us our money back!”Some who had bought the drug also helped Mr Austin. They all seemed to surround him.“Quickly give us our money back!” cried the people shouting angrily.Andrew Young actually shook his head and tried to refuse, "No...no, you already know that if the items that have been purchased cannot be returned."But the people didn't want to understand and said to him loudly, “No you can't, this money has to be returned because you have committed fraud.

Andrew Young smiled and shook his head, “Of course not sir. That price is a very commensurate price for what you get.”“Humph, you must want to rob us by paying such a large fee! I don't want to buy!” exclaimed one of the visitors.Andrew Young smiled sarcastically and said, “I have no intention of robbing you. I set a fair price as you can see at Mr. Watson's birthday party, and also the changes in me. You all have even touched me and felt the difference. So I think 2.5 billion is really worth it.”The visitors who surrounded him also spoke like a buzzing beetle. After that, he spoke again by giving an explanation of everything. “Don't all of you know that in our youth we spend a lot of time working hard, thinking about many things even makes us forget to eat and lack sleep. Often we have to eat fast food to save time. Don't you all realize the consequences of our old habits? Gradually everything becomes a disease that accumulates and paralyzes the cells in our body.
