“Oh my god…“
Right when Luna’s finger pierced through the painting, Alice exclaimed in shock, “This is Mr. Allen’s favorite painting! Luna, even if you hate me, you don’t have to go so far as to destroy this painting just because I like it?“
There were not many people in the exhibition hall at night, and the spot where they stood was darkly lit, so initially, no one noticed the ruckus going on between them.
With Alice’s shout, everyone turned their attention to them.
Before Luna could regain her footing, the crowd’s critical stares and words of reproach were heard.
“Why did you come to an art exhibition if you didn’t appreciate art?“
“Apparently, someone once offered Master Allen ten million dollars to buy this piece of art but he refused! “
“Oh my god, can she afford to compensate him?
“Jealous women are so crazy, destroying it just because someone else liked it?“
The rumble of the crowd’s discussion was heard clearly.
Luna smiled wryly.
She drowned out the voices behind her and turned to look at the hole on the painting she accidentally made with her finger.
All along, she thought Alice was a quiet opportunist, someone who never wore their emotions on their face.
After all, to pour her time and effort into learning everything about someone else, and disguise herself as that person required a lot of patience and determination.
But she was wrong.
Alice Gibson was much more despicable than she thought.
“Miss.“
Behind her, the cold voice of the exhibition manager rang out, “You will have to suffer the consequences for destroying Master Allen’s painting. I’ll give you three options, firstly, monetary compensation, second, replace the painting with a brand new one and lastly, legal action. Which one would you prefer?“
