Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 125
“I came with my parents,” Leroy replied as he scratched his head, wondering why Old Mr. Collins wouldn’t come. After a moment of silence, he said, “Old Mr. Collins, I just saw Miss Janet give her grandmother a painting that is painted in a style similar to Master Nato’s! I’m sure that you would be interested to see it.”
“What?” When Old Mr. Collins heard Master Nato’s name, he immediately sobered up and asked, “Are you saying that there is a painting that looks like it was painted by Master Nato and want me to head over to appraise it?” He hadn’t seen any Master Nato’s painting in years. At that moment, Old Mr. Collins was extremely excited, as if he found an oasis in the desert.
Leroy nodded heavily and replied, “Yes. Old Mr. Collins, hurry over. The party is about to end soon.” “I’ll be there in a jiffy!” Old Mr. Collins hurriedly hung up the phone and didn’t even have the time to grab the invitation before he rushed to the Leaping Dragon Hotel.
As for Leroy, he heard the phone being abruptly hung up and couldn’t help but feel speechless. Didn’t he say that he wouldn’t come no matter what?
He rubbed his forehead in confusion and turned to look at the daughter of the Jackson family who gave Jade the painting. Even though people around her were still criticizing and mocking her, she sat there calmly, as if she was unbothered. Leroy couldn’t help but admire her mentality.
Shirley and Emily were extremely delighted to hear the crowd mock Janet and they anticipated to hear how Jade was about to scold her. Unexpectedly, Jade seemed to be unbothered and she smiled and said, “What are you calling her a thieve?
My granddaughter didn’t sell her painting and didn’t profit in any way off this. She only did it to give me a surprise. You people are being mean to her! Besides, if I asked you to paint according to Master Nato’s style, can you make such a beautiful copy?”
“But…” Shirley’s eyes widened in disbelief. She never thought that Jade would be so protective of Janet, who she just met. “Grandma…” Just when Emily was about to say something, she heard a familiar voice from outside the door. “Jade, I’m sorry for making you wait for so long!”
As soon as he finished his sentence, everyone turned to look at Old Mr. Collins, who had just arrived. Jade was overjoyed to see him and she hurriedly got up from her seat. “Oh, it’s Old Mr. Collins!” She and Old Mr. Collins had been friends ever since they were young and they met because her husband liked to draw. Back then, Old Mr. Collins was just an unknown painter!
