Chapter 155
“Plum Authenticity Twist” was a unique skill of a renowned appraising master in the 1900s. It was rumored that as long as the master took some actions upon himself, the master could literally identify the authenticity of any antiques and famous paintings. Nowadays, there were only a few people who knew of that technique. The reason Rosalie Naiwell knew that was because of the fact that her grandfather from her family knew of that technique too. However, Senior Naiswell had promised the person who taught him that technique something. He promised not to pass that technique to anybody else. Hence, he was the only one who mastered that in the Naiswells. Now the “Plum Authenticity Twist” was being wielded by a live-in son-in-law. Rosalie felt that it was too preposterous, and it felt like a dream. “What? Plum Authenticity Twist?” A lot of people present heard what Rosalie said. They were slightly stupefied. Did it mean that the live-in son-in-law was not messing around, but he ha

At that moment, Wyatt Johnson’s facial expression changed. He took a few steps forward and said coldly, “I still think that this painting is fake. At most, it’s just a replica which resembles the original painting tremendously. Miss Naiswell, isn’t your grandpa an expert master in the field of appraising? May we have the honor to ask for help from him, to take a look at it?” Hearing that, Rosalie Naiswell trembled. She had a much deeper admiration toward Wyatt now. ‘That’s true. At a time like this, even he could not confirm the authenticity of “The Rocky Mountains, Lander's Peak”. Maybe the only way is to ask for help from my own grandpa, so that we can identify its authenticity. Besides, Wyatt is able to act so calm under such a circumstance. It’s enough to prove that he’s indeed an exceptional man!’ At that moment, Rosalie took a deep breath, stepped forward and said, “If that’s the case, I’ll ask my grandpa to take a look at this painting and to identify its authenticity!” Ha

“Live-in son-in-law! Let go of Miss Naiswell’s phone this instant!” “How could you argue with Master Naiswell given your capability? Are you insane?” “We were stupid just now. How could we believe you?” At that moment, everyone present condemned Harvey York, scolding him ceaselessly. But in that instant, Shane Naiswell drew in a cold breath all of a sudden at the other end of the video call. He then said in confusion, “Is it the luminous technique? That was Albert Bierstadt’s special painting skill. How could there be such a technique on a fake painting? During all these years after so many eras, there is indeed no one who’s able to make such a replica in such an exceptional manner. It’s impossible. How could it be possible…” At that point in time, Shane was filled with deep disbelief. “Sir, after hearing what you said just now, do you think that this painting is authentic? Then could you explain why there are two remaining paintings which are currently displayed in the mus

She could refrain from believing Harvey York’s judgment. But she had absolute trust in Shane Naiswell. It was because her grandfather was an expert master in the appraising field. There were indeed not that many people who enjoyed the same prestigious status as her grandfather in their country. “Sir, if you’re free as of late, please come to the Naiswells to meet me. You’re most welcome here at any time.” At the other end of the phone, Shane smiled faintly before hanging up the phone. After that, Harvey threw the phone to Rosalie Naiswell casually. He then smiled faintly and said, “Miss Naiswell, do you still remember our bet just now?” “I…” Rosalie was speechless. ‘Do I really have to address him as my father?’ Standing beside them, Wyatt Johnson became deeply furious. He then scolded, “Harvey, are you even a gentleman? Miss Naiswell was joking with you. How could you be so serious about it? How could you try to make things difficult for a woman? Is that what you’re capable o

Mandy Zimmer was slightly anxious too. She then said apologetically, “Miss Naiswell, we’re truly sorry. Harvey just said that casually. Don’t take it to heart. Please don’t mind him.”Wyatt Johnson said dully, “Mandy, although he’s your husband, you can’t always protect him like that. He’s indeed just a coward. You really don’t have to act like this.” Rosalie Naiswell frowned deeply as her facial expression worsened. At first, the incident had ended. But after what the others did, the incident became worse, and she would only become quite humiliated. Thinking of that, her voice became much colder, “Harvey, we can’t joke about the reputation and dignity of the Naiswells. You’d better explain yourself clearly. If not, this won’t end here.” Harvey York admired Rosalie more now. Nowadays, there were not many people who were so honest and straightforward. Thinking of that, Harvey said slowly, “Miss Naiswell, don’t worry. Please listen to my explanation.”“Previously, you said that

Needless to say, Wyatt, Jake, and Cecilia wanted Harvey to die. Why would they consider helping Harvey right now?Additionally, the others were eager to auction again, because “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak” was so famous that there were many people who wanted it.At that moment, a young man in a suit walked out from behind the stage with a few bodyguards.“Mr. Cloude…” The auctioneer let out a sigh of relief when he saw the young man. This was Jude of the Cloudes, the person in charge of the auction, and he already knew about what had happened just now.Jude’s cold gaze travelled around the room before settling on Harvey. He smiled at him. “Sir, I heard that you helped identify the authenticity of “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak”. To express our apology, we will pay you an appraisal fee of one hundred and fifty-two thousand dollars. Please do not refuse it.”Harvey frowned slightly. What did Jude mean? Giving him an appraisal fee? Was he shamelessly trying to get out of

Rosalie who was standing nearby spoke up, “Jude, you are way out of line.”“Rosalie…” Jude frowned. He did not care about Mandy, in fact, the entire Zimmer family was nothing to him. However, things were different when it came to the Naiswells since they were also a top family in the provincial town. Since Rosalie had spoken, it would be bad if he did not give her some face.Jude smiled while thinking about it, and eventually said, “I won’t say too much since Miss Naiswell has spoken, but some people should be a little more self-aware and know their place. It’s as the saying goes “a man’s wealth is his ruin by invoking others’ greed”. This saying has been popular since ancient times, hasn’t it?”Jude gazed at Harvey pointedly after that, then turned around and left. He already knew that “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak” was in Harvey’s hands, but was it not easy for him to get it back?Harvey frowned contemplatively. He knew what Jude was thinking, but he was not worried that Ju

Mandy, Rosalie, and Yvonne, three incredible women, stood around Harvey. Many men looked at him enviously.Yvonne did not care about other people’s gazes, and looked at Harvey with a smile. “Mr. York, I’m interested in the “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak” you have. I wonder if you are willing to transfer it?”The entire audience went silent as soon as Yvonne said that. After a while, some people gasped and exclaimed in shock.If the Cloude family was a mogul in South Light, then the Yorks was a mogul among moguls. Since this lady who represented the Yorks had said that, if this live-in son-in-law dared to refuse, he might not even know how he died later.Many people looked at Harvey smugly, wanting to see what he was going to do.Harvey said with interest, “Name your price then, Miss Xavier.”“Anything is fine; we can afford any price. Our CEO is very interested in your painting.” Many people gasped when Yvonne mentioned the word CEO.The new CEO of York Enterprise was myste
