Chapter 460

Carlene turned pale as a ghost, her eyes full of disbelief.

She had figured Maja was easy prey, but who would have guessed the woman could argue like that?

She couldn’t argue back on any point!

And people were starting to whisper.

“I’ve been thinking about it for a while; Carlene acts just like a mistress.”

“And flaunting her necklace in front of the wife, she has no shame.”

“The Shepard family isn’t rolling in cash; what’s she showing off for?”

Carlene was about to keel over, glaring at Maja with pure hatred.

How dare this ugly wench humiliate her like this?

Bitch!

Damn it!

She was barely holding it together; she was just itching to slap–her!–

But she had to keep her cool.

Just when things were heating up, Grandma Edith spoke up, clearly trying to defuse the situation.

“We’re here to appraise the paintings; can we stop with the irrelevant chatter?”

Maja chuckled lightly, looking at the appraiser.

The appraiser cleared his throat, drawing everyone’s attention to him.

Carlene félt extremely embarrassed.

The last time Holden criticized her was in Rosewood Manor; at least no one knew about that.

But now that this ugly woman was humiliating her in front of everyone, she was fuming.

Taking a deep breath, she vowed to get her revenge when the chance arrived!

Meanwhile, the appraiser at the long table had started his evaluation.

After ten minutes, he was done with both paintings, and then he looked at Carlene.

“Ms. Shepard’s painting is real; this one has been faked.”

Maja raised an eyebrow; the result was exactly as she expected.

As soon as the appraiser finished, Edith stood up.

“Maja, anything to say?”

This whole affair was a colossal embarrassment for Edith; as the elder, she didn’t expect things to get this out of hand.

But going to court would be even more humiliating.

Since Holden Raymond wouldn’t step up to solve the issue, she would ruin Maja’s reputation tonight and slap Holden in the face!

Maja scoffed.

“Anything to say? I say this appraiser is on your payroll.”

Edith almost burst out laughing at the audacity of this woman, trying to win her over with a fake painting and then creating a scene when she was found

out.

This woman had the gall to step foot in the Raymond family’s house, a disgrace to the family.

She didn’t want to see her anymore, out of sight, out of mind. “Someone! Get her out of here! I want her banned from Greenfield for life!”

As soon as the words left her mouth, Maja looked at her lightly.

“Grandma Edith, I brought my own appraiser; I can’t just take the word of your guy, right?”

Edith was seething: “Let’s see what your appraiser has to say!”

Just as she finished, a man walked in.

He had a small mustache, despite his age, and he moved lightly, hands behind his back.

Before he showed up, everyone was already gossiping about Maja.

They were saying how vain she was, parading a fake painting in high society.

But the moment Maja’s appraiser appeared, everyone fell silent.

Not for any other reason.

It was Herbert himself.

As everyone knew, Herbert rarely made public appearances; he didn’t like interviews and was a lone wolf.

Edith froze when she saw Herbert. She thought she was seeing things.

Herbert greeted everyone with a smile, then strolled leisurely towards the paintings.

Edith was a bit excited: “Herbert, what brings you to Greenfield? I didn’t hear anything about it.”

Herbert kept his smile, but his eyes turned cold. “I’m just here for the day; I leaving on a flight soon, didn’t expect to see such an interesting situation.”

Edith breathed a sigh of relief. “Perfect timing; this woman is deceiving people with a fake painting; with you here to authenticate, we can be confident.”

After saying that, she looked at Maja coldly, as if she were looking forward to seeing Maja beg for mercy.

Herbert also glanced at Maja.

Maja stood there, her back straight.

Everyone was urging Herbert on.

“Take a look.”

“Yes, she used your fake painting; it’s outrageous.”

Herbert only took a few seconds, but in those seconds, smiles began to form on Edith and Carlene’s faces.

Even the bodyguard had moved to Maja’s side, ready to escort her out.
