Lydia had a sly, mocking smile on her face. “This painting only got the surface right. Owen’s work is on a whole different level.”
Mr. Robinson jumped in right away, nodding. “Absolutely. I just got two of Owen’s real paintings not long ago. Lydia gave them to me. They’re so much more alive than this one.”
Chloe didn’t buy it for a second. She was sure her painting wasn’t a fake. Lydia was obviously just picking a fight. And Glenn clearly thought her gift wasn’t as good as Lydia’s. That stung.
“Every painting has its own meaning,” Chloe shot back. “If you think what I gave you isn’t as good as Lydia’s, you can just say so. Please don’t drag this painting through the mud.”
Damien was still studying the painting, looking it over and over. He honestly didn’t see what the problem was. “Glenn, are you sure you aren’t mistaken? I think it looks great.”
Mr. Robinson explained patiently, “It is a beautiful painting. It really does look like Owen’s style. But if you look close, it just doesn’t have the same spark as his originals.”
“My painting was authenticated by the auction house,” Chloe said, her voice rising. “I’ve even got the certificate. Are you really going to call it a fake just because Lydia says so?”
Wendy frowned. “If she says it’s a fake, what proof does she have?”
Janet huffed. “She’s just a kid. What does she know about art? She’s making this up. Show them the certificate and let’s end this.”

thank u!...
Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
