As the assistant made a dash for the door, they were intercepted by Norvanian military soldiers. The lawyer quickly interjected, “We could sue you for defamation.”
However, the appraiser sneered in response. “Watch your own back. That woman has committed a crime.”
In a panic, the imposter fought her way through the crowd, attempting to flee. Onlookers observed her futile attempt to reach the exit before being apprehended by the waiting soldiers.
“What are you doing? Let go of me! I’m calling the police!” she
protested as she struggled against them.
“No need. We’ll take you there ourselves,” Cole retorted.
With that, the imposter and her assistant were escorted away in a technical vehicle and transported to the police.

Wendy stared at her in disbelief. Despite Suzanne’s outward gentleness, her eyes betrayed a steely resolve and ruthlessness- signs that she wasn’t one to be underestimated.
Although Wendy was driven by greed, she wasn’t devoid of moral After all, the paintings rightfully belonged to Suzanne.
“Fine. I’ll make the donation,” Wendy sensibly agreed, recognizing the potential benefits of aligning herself with Suzanne’s goodwill.
The art enthusiasts in the hall grew impatient, eagerly shouting their bids. A reporter jumped into the fray, announcing, “Ms. York, the highest bid in my livestream stands at 5 million for the piece.”
