Caroline whispered a na into Joline’s ear. Joline was a little surprised, but she quickly rembered which painting it was. She was a little confused.

“Didn’t they say that this painting was lost?”

“It’s not really lost. It’s just that a naughty junior took the painting away when he ran away from ho. Later, when he was down and out, in order to save his little lover, he sold it to a rich businessman at a low price. And the rich businessman’s grandson was a good-for-nothing who lived his life by selling his ancestral property.”

And she happened to know this good-for-nothing guy. She knew that he had this thing in his hands and he was in a hurry to sell it, so she changed the na and channel, and after several rounds of transactions, she bought the painting from him.

Hearing that it was this painting, Joline nodded with satisfaction. “It’s very good.”

Not only did it show Caroline’s taste, but her value also reflected her intention to do charity. However, after Caroline donated her inheritance, not many people would think that she was a stingy person.

Since it was Mrs. Hall’s first charity banquet, all the guests, be it the donated items or the people participating in the auction, were serious about it. Therefore, the auction went smoothly, and it wasn’t long before it was Caroline’s turn with her donated painting.

“The next item for auction is a painting donated by Miss Caroline Lambert.”

As soon as the host made the announcent, many people imdiately perked up. They wanted to know what exactly Caroline had donated and were also curious if she would use the Anderson family’s financial resources to show off her might.

This was Caroline’s first appearance as the future lady of the Anderson family, and it was also the ti for her to display her way of dealing with people. Everyone would definitely pay more attention to her and try to figure out her character before deciding on how to befriend her.

The painting was placed on a display shelf and was pushed in by soone. It was covered with a blue cloth.

The emcee introduced the artist of the painting and the background of its creation.

When many people below heard the na ‘Agassi,’ they imdiately exclaid and the discussion went on.

“If I didn’t hear wrong, he said ‘The Field’ by Agassi?”

“Didn’t they say that the original work was buried in a sea ot tire( Could it be an imitation?”

“Imitation is not possible. No one has been able to copy the essence of Agassi’s brush so far.”

Agassi was a particularly powerful artist who had been active 50 years ago. He was still popular and sought after by many young people. His paintings were hard to find on the market, not to ntion his legendary work, ‘The Field’.

As the host raised his arm, the blue curtain spun in the air and then landed safely, revealing the green and vibrant wilderness on the drawing board.

Once its true appearance was revealed, no one would suspect that it was an imitation. Just like what was said before, Agassi’s godly brush strokes could not be imitated by others.

The host held a small hamr in his hand and gestured, “The starting price is

3-5 million. The price will increase by 500 ,ooo each ti.”

This starting price was quite high for tonight’s auction items, but this was Agassi’s ‘The Field,’ so the starting price was naturally not high.

Therefore, the host thought that after he announced the price, there would be a lot of people fighting to bid. However, after his voice fell, the scene fell silent.

The ladies who were still excited just now suddenly beca interested in the refreshnts and decorations on their tables. They began to study them one after another, but they also looked around from the corner of their eyes.

The host stood on the stage like a teacher on the podium. He could see their little movents clearly, so he knew that there was a high probability that they had encountered a prank.

He had so regrets. Agassi was such a good piece of work, but he had been involved in such a dispute. But he was just a small host and couldn’t do anything. He could only pretend that he had found nothing and follow the normal auction process.

Ten seconds passed, and the audience was still quiet, a little too quiet.

Kelly’s smile was so wide that it almost reached her ears.

She felt a burst of joy in her heart. Caroline was so arrogant before, but now she lost all her face in front of everyone. She would be ostracized by the entire circle. Let’s see how she could survive in this circle in the future..
