Climbing Up to The Top Summit novel Chapter 163

Mandy was slightly shocked. She had never expected Harvey to refuse money and exchange it for the Forever Mine instead. If he willed it, a few hundred million dollars would have also been a fair price. However, this man only thought of her even under such circumstances, and he just wanted to make her happy.

Mandy looked at Harvey and bit her lip unconsciously as she thought about it. A strange feeling bloomed in her heart.

"Miss Xavier, you can't give it to him! The painting may be fake!" Jake suddenly blurted out.

What? Why did he say that? Everyone immediately turned to him.

Yvonne looked over, speechless. Where had this guy come from? She was just having fun while acting with the CEO. Why did he have to suddenly appear like this?

However, Yvonne continued acting as though she was shocked. She smiled hesitantly and asked, "Sir, why did you say that?"

Jake said solemnly, "Miss Xavier, Harvey is just a live-i n son-in-law. He doesn't know how to identify the authenticity of the painting, but he keeps saying that the painting is real. Do you believe him?"

Yvonne smiled and said, "Why shouldn't I believe him? Didn't Master Naiswell also say that the painting is real earlier?"

"It’s true, but Master Naiswell identified it through a mobile phone." Although Jake knew the excuse was flimsy, he still gritted his teeth and said, "Moreover, everyone knows that the real "The Rocky Mountains, Lander's Peak" is very valuable. It is worth more than fifteen million dollars. Exchanging it for the diamond ring Forever Mine is surely a disadvantage, why would he be willing to trade it?"

Rosalie said coldly before anyone else spoke, "Mr. Surrey, my grandfather is well-known as the "golden mouth”. Are you questioning his words now?"

"I don't dare to do that. I’m just afraid that it could be a trick. He talked so logically about "The Rocky Mountains, Lander's Peak", so I doubt he faked the painting. Miss Xavier, don't exchange with him, or else you will fall into his trap!" Jake looked sincere but was fuming inside. As long as Yvonne did not exchange it with Harvey, he could snatch the painting after the auction was over. Jake was eagerly hoping that Harvey would be assassinated by somebody.

Harvey said calmly, "Mr. Surrey, what's wrong with you? This painting was verified earlier, so why are you bringing this up now?"

"Why shouldn't I? You should explain why you refused to sell it to Miss Naiswell earlier but you’re willing to sell it to Miss Xavier instead. You did that because you are afraid that Miss Naiswell will expose you!" The reason Jake gave sounded logical, and even Rosalie who was initially angry now looked suspicious.
