When She Stops Playing Nice
Chapter 415
Ander said, âNo matter how good the imitation is, a fake is still a fake. Since youâre so confident in showing your painting skills, why donât you let me hire an appraiser who has studied Ms. Genaâs works to determine its authenticity?â
Gina had no objections. âSure.â
Ander sneered. He thought, âAlthough Miss Miller looks very calm and composed at the moment, she is just pretending. Did Princess Lisa and her think 1 am easy to fool?â
Ander smiled
miled insincerely. âPrincess Lisa, Miss Miller, please come in. Youâve been here for so long. Itâs inappropriate for you to stand outside.â
Lisa nodded and gestured for Gina to walk with her.
After they sat, Ander got someone to prepare the painting materials. âMiss Miller, your country has a saying. All preparations have been made but one crucial element. You can paint now. The appraiser I contacted will come over later to appraise the authenticity. Please start.â
G
Gina agreed. She stood up and was about to start when Ander suddenly said, âMiss Miller, I hate being fooled the most. So, if you are the fake Ms. Gena, even if you are Princess Lisaâs friend, I will not let you off easily.â
Lisa was displeased. She thought Ander was looking down on her when he treated her friend like that. âMr. Ander, donât go too far. Gina is Ms. Gena, No one is fooling you.â
Ander thought, âGina must think that with Princess Lisa around, she could pretend to be someone else.â He scoffed. He would not let anyone who lied to him off easily because of Lisa. Moreover, Gina wanted to steal the design team from him. He thought, âWho does she think she is? Is she worthy? Furthermore, she wants to use Princess Lisa to pressure me?â
Gina held the brush and said nonchalantly, âMr. Ander, why donât you tell me how you want to punish me.â
Ander sneered, âMiss Miller, youâre quite straightforward.â
Gina thought, âOf course, I am straightforward. I am the real Ms. Gena. Why should I be afraid?â
Ander continued, âMy punishment is to invite Miss Miller to spend the night in the prison in the basement of my castle
Lisa was angry. âMr. Ander, what do you mean? Are you treating my friend like a criminal?â
Ander glanced at Lisa. âPrincess Lisa, calm down. Let us hear what Miss Miller has to say. She is a straightforward person. She should agree.â
Gina responded, âI can agree, but if the appraiser finds out Iâm Gena, then Mr. Ander, you can go to the prison for a night. Itâs fair, right?â
After hearing Ginaâs words, Lisaâs expression became better. She smiled and said, âMr. Ander, do you agree?â
Anderâs expression darkened. His familyâs prison was used to lock up criminals who betrayed the family. Even if they were criminals, they were born into anoble family. Using it to lock up a foreign civilian was giving Gina too much credit.
Gina continued, âIf Mr. Ander canât agree, then I canât agree either.â
Daniel, who had been silent all this while, suddenly said, âDad, itâs too much to lock her up in the prison. Why donât we change it?â
Ander glared at Daniel. âDonât interrupt. Now is not the time for you to be gentle with the fairer sex. Alright, Miss Miller, I promise you.â
âGood. Itâs a deal,â Gina said. She twirled her brush leisurely.
Then, Gina started painting. She painted an abstract caricature of Ander and Daniel.
Ander was a little shocked when he saw how Gina painted. He thought, âis Miss Miller really Ms. Gena? He had always wanted to collect Geniaâs works, Although he had not collected any, he had observed them at his friendâs house. Needless to say, at first glance, Ginaâs painting appeared like Genaâs.

Anderâs eyes darkened. No matter what, even if Gina was, he would make her not. He suddenly coughed. âIâm sorry. I have to go to the bathroom.â
Daniel looked at the painting. He did not understand painting, so he did not know what it meant. Hence, he asked, âMiss Miller, what did you paint?â
Gina put down her brush calmly. âGo and investigate it yourself.â
Daniel was at a loss for words.
Lisa was also curious about what Gina painted. She approached Gina. âGina, can you tell me what it means?â
âOf course.â Gina nodded and moved closer to Lisaâs ear.
After Lisa heard it, she smiled. âGot it.â She deliberately said to Daniel, âSheâs praising you and your father.â
Daniel was doubtful.
Soon, Ander returned from the washroom. âMiss Miller, the appraiser I hired will be here soon.â
Five minutes later, the appraiser arrived. He looked like he was from Shyran. The first thing he noticed was Gina, the beautiful woman from Shyran. He could not hide the surprise in his eyes. It was Anderâs voice that brought him back to his senses. âPlease appraise it, sir.â
appraiser immediately turned his attention to the painting, but when he saw what was on it, he almost burst out laughing. âWho-
âYes, Mr. Anderâ The a

w who the legendary Gena was. However, looking at the two unfamiliar faces present, neither of them

looked like her.
Ander didnât understand why the appraiser was so agitated. He didnât know that the appraiser was trying very hard not to laugh.
Ander pointed at Gina. âThatâs her, Miss Miller. She says she is Ms. Gena. You donât have to worry about anything else. Just appraise it quickly and see if
itâs true.ââ
Gina looked at the appraiser. âWhatâs wrong? I painted it. Is there a problem?â
Gina was very bold. The appraiser knew it was because Ander and the others couldnât understand it.
However, the girl beside Gina was probably also the daughter of a noble. It was better not to explain what Gina had painted. The appraiser came back to his senses and said, âUh, thereâs no problem. I can tell you have quite the foundation.â
After saying that, the appraiser began to appraise seriously. Three minutes later, the appraiser concluded silently, âMiss Miller is actually Ms. Gena. How
unbelievable.
The appraiserâs pupils shrank, but at the same time, he was worried. Before the appraisal, he had determined that Gina could not be Gena, but reality proved she was. However, on the way here just now, Ander had called him and said that no matter what, he could not admit that Gina was Gena. Otherwise, he would have to bear the consequences.
The appraiser was so nervous that beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. On the one hand, he was worried Gina would expose him. On the other hand, he was worried Ander would take revenge on him. He thought, âWhy am I so unlucky to be invited here? The appraiser was filled with regret
