Xyla Quest then gently reached for Sharon Lindt’s hand.Sharon smiled. “I know that you have your reasons.”Instantly, the entire lobby was silent…Right then, the obese, middle-aged man walked up to Xyla. “Lady… After this, may I admire this painting of yours for a moment?” he asked.Xyla smiled at the man. “Sure,” she said.“Do you also suspect that this is a case of a painting within a painting? Was that why you bid for it?” the obese, middle-aged man asked curiously.Sure enough, this man also had suspicions of there being a painting within a painting…Xyla still smiled. “Well… Yes.”The obese, middle-aged man instantly laughed. “You have good eyes. If I had enough money, I would have made a gamble today.”Xyla looked the man up and down. He was dressed in ordinary clothes, and he looked nothing like the celebrities here.It looked like he was here to purchase auction items on behalf of his boss. He was not some famous, powerful, or rich individual. Indeed, he didn’t seem
Everyone just watched Clarence Steele from a distance while he carefully took the painting apart.After about an hour, the two paintings were completely separated—The painting of the golden wheat field beneath the original painting was now in full display before Clarence’s eyes.After careful inspection of the painting, Clarence carefully picked it up and showed it to the crowd. “This… This is a real work of Van Gogh! All the details are the same as the real pieces of art from Van Gogh!” he said excitedly.Clarence's words, as well as the object in his hand, stunned everyone at once.Xyla Quest was the only one who seemed calm and collected with no ripples of emotions in her eyes.In the crowd, she looked like a white peony that couldn’t be tainted by dust. She was both pretty and elegant…“This really does seem like the work of Van Gogh… It doesn’t look any different from his other works…” “This style… This method of using colors. If this wasn’t Van Gogh, who could it be?”
Xyla Quest was quite pleased with this price.She instantly smiled. “Alright, deal.”“She bought the crappy painting with 2.3 million. It turns out that there’s actually a genuine Van Gogh painting hidden behind it. She even managed to sell it at a high price of 150 million. Isn’t that crazy?”“Pretty lady, you have good eyes… I’ll apologize.”“I’ll apologize, too. I’m the dumb one… Not you.”The people around Xyla began to sigh after that…Everyone’s eyes were filled with admiration when they looked at her.Each of them regretted not participating in the bid.Xyla smiled. “It’s fine… Your reaction is entirely normal,” she said.“Can I make the purchase using a check?” Wagner Wolfe smiled and asked.“Sure,” Xyla answered decisively.After that, Wagner cheerfully retrieved an empty check from his wallet. He wrote down 150 million on the check and handed it to Xyla.Xyla had a satisfied smile upon her face. After that, she put the check into the Chanel bag she carried.Havin
Xyla Quest saw Tom Sullivan and Mary Sullivan chatting while they headed outside.Tom was wearing a white T-shirt and a pair of jeans. He seemed much thinner than before, and he was no longer beaming with energy as he did back then.Meanwhile, Mary was wearing a light green, slim-fit dress. As always, she had heavy makeup on, and she behaved very flamboyantly.As soon as Tom turned around, he saw Xyla.Xyla was beautiful and attractive. Her entire body seemed to be glowing. Although many passersby surrounded her, none of them looked as good as she did.After not seeing Xyla for a long time, she seemed even more beautiful. The confidence and calmness in her eyes had grown significantly.Tom heard that she had another identity as the big boss of X Entertainment.Xyla really was outstanding! She was like an unreachable star.Every time Tom saw Xyla, he felt an immense feeling of regret in his heart.Mary, on the other hand, instantly had a sullen expression upon her face.When M
When the six luxury cars arrived in front of the company’s building, Xyla Quest looked up and saw that the building’s top floor lights were still on.Zack Cassidy, who was waiting at the door, saw Xyla and quickly stepped forward to open the door for her respectfully.“What are you doing here?” Xyla’s eyes flashed with a slight look of surprise.“Mr. Batton asked me to come down and get you directly to the conference room,” Zack said.“Oh… I brought Japanese food. Help carry these up with the rest…” Xyla said.“I know you all mustn’t have had your dinner yet…” She added.Zack’s eyes filled with gratitude. “Ma’am… That’s very kind of you. We really haven’t had dinner yet…”Xyla laughed nonchalantly. “Why so courteous now? I’ll not be going into the conference room. I’ll wait for him in his office,” she said.“Mr. Batton said you must go to the conference room. He… He misses you…” Zack said.Xyla was speechless.“Don’t make things difficult for me… Please?” Zack asked.Xyla no
What came into view was Weibo news about Xyla Quest herself.“Shocking! Xyla identified a painting within a painting at an auction!”Xyla didn’t expect this to get on the news.She immediately tapped on it to check it out…The official Weibo news account published the news article.“Shocking!” Xyla is a hidden boss!”Below the short text was a Weibo post by a netizen named Windy Sheila. The whole process of Xyla identifying the painting in the painting was clearly depicted in the post.From the way the post was written, the person who published the Weibo post seemed to admire Xyla greatly.Xyla immediately held her forehead helplessly, and she then looked at the comment section…The number of comments in the comment section had already exceeded a million even though the Weibo post was only published less than ten minutes ago.“Xyla… She’s really a big boss. She could tell that there was a painting in that painting at one glance! D*mn! Ahhh…”“What else can I say but that I
Stanley Batton looked at the crowd seriously. “Let’s continue…”***At eleven o’clock, the meeting officially ended. Stanley grabbed his phone and went straight to his office…After he left, everyone sighed in relief at the same time—“Whew… As soon as Xyla left, he stopped being gentle. If it’s possible, I wish Xyla would stay here forever.”“Exactly. Whenever Xyla’s here, he’s completely gentle. I still like him better as that kind of CEO.”“‘In that case, I’ll carry you to my lounge so you can sleep, alright?’ Whenever I think of what our CEO said earlier, I still feel tingles in my body. Please carry me!”“In your dreams. Do you think the CEO is someone you can randomly fantasize about?”Everyone discussed heatedly in the conference room.However, Stanley couldn’t hear any of their voices.Soon, he arrived in front of the door to his office’s lounge.After stopping in his tracks, he carefully turned the door handle and gently pushed the door open…To avoid disturbing Xy
“Miss, that is our brand’s global limited-edition purse. Because the color is not resistant to dirt, you can’t touch it casually,” the pretty, short-haired sales assistant immediately said indifferently.After having worked in a luxury retail store for a long time, she could tell with a glance which class this customer belonged to.The person in front of her was dressed in a very ordinary manner. She wasn’t even holding a purse. At one glance, she could tell this person was poor.She didn’t have to waste her energy on a poor person like that.“I know… But I want to buy it…” Rachel Wood said.“Miss, that purse costs 300,000…” The pretty, short-haired assistant said.Right then, the rich housewife next to the pretty, short-haired sales assistant directly walked up to Rachel and pointed at the bag Rachel was looking at. “This one. Let me have a look at it…”The pretty, short-haired sales assistant diligently and hastily stepped forward, took the purse out, and handed it to the rich
