The next day.
Jane came to the Jessica Art Gallery again.
It was the opening ceremony yesterday, and the gallery was so crowded that she didn't have the chance to take a look at her previous paintings.
She knew that Oliver had specially asked someone to frame the paintings and organized a commemorative exhibition of Jessica's works.
These works were not very mature, but they were fairly precious to her.
Her previous works were now placed here by Oliver. She wanted to get them back, but could not find a reasonable excuse.
However, all these belonged to her. She would come back sooner or later and would not leave anything hers to irrelevant people anymore.
Vivian said, "Jane, are these all the traditional Chinese paintings you have painted?"
Jane nodded in sign of acquiescence.
"If Mr. Kim had seen these works, he should be publicizing them in his Instagram."
"He can't do that."
Vivian almost forgot that these works were under the name of Jessica, not Jane.
Probably, it was because she had seen too many paintings like these in Holland.
Gavin often praised his daughter in front of some familiar friends, that she had not only artistic talents but also gifts in doing business.
In the past few years when Jane had been running the flower company, she had been helping the company to increase its market share in Europe by 20% and even export to many Asia countries.
The reason why she came back was to deal with her private affairs. Besides, she was going to set up a branch in Birmingham. She was coming back to carry out her grand plans.
So coming back as an artist would not attract the attention of the business circle in Birmingham.
She could not come back without concealment, nor could she come back as the daughter of the Kim family.
That was why Gavin shouldn't even appear in Birmingham.
Otherwise, it was most likely for the company to be besieged by the people who used to confront the Kim family.
Lucas had been doing a lot of research over the past few years about what had happened to the Kim family in Birmingham. Although it was a long time ago, he still managed to obtain some of the inside information.
He had been encouraging Gavin to come back to Birmingham and take back everything the Kim family had lost before.
However, Gavin always disagreed now that he had a son and a daughter, which had become both his biggest weakness and strongest backing.
He didn't want to bring about unnecessary risks to his children because of what had happened in the past.
Despite that he had been wronged so badly, and that he knew someone told a great lie intending to kill him, he could swallow it.
The Kim Group was one of the wealthiest groups in Europe now. He was fully capable of finding justice for himself, but he chose to evade it.
Although Jane admired her father's generosity, she had already died once.
Not only did she suffer a lot of physical injuries, but also mental damage so intense that it would even follow her to the rest of her life.
She was trying her best to accept the negative emotions in her mind.
It was not easy for her to return from the gate of hell, so she only hoped that she could live willfully without restraints in the future.
In the past, because of grandma and the baby in her womb, she had to compromise with people around her again and again.
Her weakness did not bring her a better life. There had always been people preying on her.
Now Gavin and Lucas were the closest people to her, so she didn't want them to be used by others to control her one day.
Therefore, few people knew the fact she was the daughter of the Kim family.
