Changing only for her (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37 I Will Teach You

“I know that you really like Edward Hopper’s paintings, Grandpa. That’s why I searched for one of his paintings for you. I hope that you’ll like it.”

“What? Edward Hopper’s painting? Are you dreaming, Sophie? Do you know how expensive his paintings are? At least come up with something more believable if you’re going to lie.”

Right then, the door to the private room opened.

Then, a man in a suit walked in with a 1.5-meter wooden case in his hands.

“Is Ms. Tanner here?”

“Here.”

Sophie stood up, and the man handed her the case.

She opened up the case and pulled out the painting from inside.

Then, she held it up so that Josiah could have a look at it.

He was indeed very fond of Edward Hopper’s paintings. It was to the point where he was obsessed with them.

The man smiled in an instant. He quickly put on his reading glasses to carefully study the painting before him.

“I really like this painting, Soph. But where did you get so much money?” Edward Hopper’s paintings were extremely expensive, after all.

“How is it possible that an eighteen-year-old girl like her would be able to buy an authentic painting, Old Mr. Tanner? This must be a fake,” Yara ridiculed. “There’s not an ounce of sincerity in her.”

“Who said that it’s fake? This is an original painting of Mr. Hopper. I even have the documents to prove it,” the man in a suit said as he took out the documents.

“Then, the documents must be fake too!” Yara said, still refusing to believe it.

“I wish you a long life with great prosperity, Grandpa.”

Sophie had put in a lot of effort in order to get the painting. However, everything was worth it as long as Josiah liked it.

“Do you really believe that it’s real, Grandpa?” Even though Willow knew nothing about art, she didn’t believe that Sophie was capable enough to get one of Edward Hopper’s paintings.

“It’s real.” He had been analyzing the art for so many years. There was no way he wouldn’t be able to tell if it was real or fake.

Everyone was shocked at his words. How on earth did you get your hands on it, Sophie?

Sophie only left the Tanner residence after she sent Josiah back.

“Stop right there, Sophie.”

Hearing that, she halted her footsteps.

Willow immediately made her way toward her.

“Where did you get the painting? It’s fake, isn’t it? How can you lie to Grandpa?”

“Everything I own is authentic. Anything that’s fake is just worthless to me.”

Is anything she can’t get fake to her?

“The man who drove the Lamborghini gave it to you, didn’t he? How shameless of you, Sophie. How dare you use your body in exchange for something! Nonetheless, he’s only interested in you for now. Once he loses interest, do you think you’d be able to marry into a wealthy family with that reputation of yours?”

Willow did not want to admit that she was getting anxious. It’s fine. It’s just a painting. The Tanner family can buy it too, so this is nothing.

“Marry into a wealthy family?”

“I will definitely marry into the Laird family. Do you still remember Mason? The one you had a crush on for two years? He’s going to return soon.”

Sophie turned around at her words.

“Is that so? Then, let me congratulate you in advance. Willow, you set me up back then all because of Mason, didn’t you?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“You don’t know? I’m sure you’ll know what I’m talking about soon.”

Then, Sophie left, leaving Willow alone.

Mason is going to return soon. I have to take advantage of this chance.

Meanwhile, Charles invited everyone to have dinner at Azure Club to celebrate his sister, Winter, getting third place in a perfumery competition.

Winter had always liked Tristan. She had been preparing to marry him ever since she was in middle school.

Now, she was quite famous in the perfume industry and even had her own fragrance company.

I’m worthy of being with Tristan now, right?

“Time passes so quickly. The snotty Winter from back then is now all grown up,” Felix teased.
