Chapter 75
The Heiress Strikes Back
75 Selected Present
Everyone was stunned. What is going on?
Nobody had expected the woman who got off the bus to be so arrogant. She bought a two-million-dollar car and even reserved a car that cost more than 800,000 dollars.
The salesperson that looked down on her just now had a depressed and surprised look on her face. Who wouldâve thought that this ordinary-looking woman would actually offer up two million dollars at once, and she even bought it just like that! Iâve missed a big client and missed a 10,000-dollar commission, and Iâve lost my job now. Itâs my fault. I shouldnât be snooping around, judging a personâs identity by their appearance.
When Sharon drove her new car out, she suddenly felt that she had been a little impulsive. I donât care about money, but Wallace only gave me one million dollars. I bought a car worth two million dollars... How am I going to explain this to him? I canât possibly say that I picked it up on the street!
After thinking for a while, Sharon took a deep breath and thought of an excellent idea. She drove directly to the roadside and spent 60 dollars to change the carâs .
She bought a BMW 7 Series, but it looked no different from a 5 Series. Plus, the interior of the two cars was similar. Wallace probably couldnât tell the difference, and Jenna was a careless person.
Sharon glanced at the time. We are about to go to Kerryâs hotel to celebrate. I need to prepare a gift.
Kerry didnât have a deep relationship with Sharon in university, but when the former interacted with her, she realized that she was very kind to people. Thus, Sharon recalled what she liked and finally walked into an art sales venue, spending 450,000 dollars to buy a painting by Carlo Crivelli.
The painting wasnât big, so it wasnât very expensive. There were also too many similar works during the Renaissance, so most people wouldnât think of buying Carlo Crivelliâs real work.
The reason why Sharon chose this as a gift was that she remembered Kerry liking things in the Renaissance very much. She also didnât want everyone to know the value of this painting.
If someone asked, she could say that this was an imitation, and nobody would suspect anything.
After buying the painting, Sharon received her husbandâs message.
The two of them had already reached the entrance of the hotel.
Seeing Sharon drive the new car to them, Wallace was stunned. How could this be? Sharon shouldnât have been able to use the card I gave her. I thought that after I received the payment reminder, I would then use this reason to call Sharon back. I didnât expect her to drive a car here. What is going on?
âJenna, this car was given to you by Wallace. Iâm sorry that I drove it all the way here, but I hope you donât mind.â Sharon was a little embarrassed to see Jenna.
Jenna didnât expect to receive such a big gift. He looked at Wallace, touched. âIf I werenât a man, I wouldâve married you.â
Wallace didnât say anything and glanced at Sharon instead. âLetâs go-donât make her wait too long. Did you buy her a present?â
âI bought a painting,â Sharon answered truthfully.
âPainting?â Wallace asked curiously.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Sharon nodded. âI was at Antique Street. It looked quite nice, so I bought it. I heard that her hotel is also retro-styled, so it should match quite well.â
âHow much did Sis-in-law spend?â Jenna looked at the drawing wrapped in brown paper. It didnât look big.
âItâs not expensive, just a few thousand dollars.â
Surprisingly, Jenna suddenly laughed. âIf thatâs the case, then I think you mightâve been scammed. If itâs really Renaissance work, you canât buy it with a few thousand dollars.â
âAs long as Kerry doesnât mind,â Sharon said with a smile.
âThatâs true. You and my big brother have already given them a lot of face by coming here! This gift is just a token of goodwill. Itâs good enough that our friendship is there. Letâs go!â
