Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)
Chapter 324

Jason stopped arguing with Marina about whether to sell the painting when Marina mentioned themineral investment.

He was a little convinced and thought it might be a better idea to listen to Marina.

At least they knew the real value of the painting

He couldn't turn the painting into cash if he refused to sell it, then the painting was useless to himsince it couldn't provide him with any physical value. If he had an emergency and died, the paintingwould be heritage, and he wouldn't be able to enjoy its value at all

Jason felt his mind suddenly brightened up. He had been so worried about money that his hairturned white.

It was time to turn his collections into cash.

Now was the time that the company needed cash the most.

He had no idea that Marina already knew that there was no mineral investment at all.

However, he knew that sooner or later, Marina would hear about it. She would also replace out that hehad lost all their money by gambling.

It would be better to sell the painting for some cash. He would be an honest businessman and stopwasting money.

At this moment, Jason felt that he had thought through everything and decided to change into acompletely different person in the future.

The time had finally come to the Saturday morning.

The Jiahe Art Auction company would take care of the auction of Marina's "Fox Mountain residence”at the Mose Clubhouse.

The collectors who received the news had arrived at the auction hall of the Mose Clubhouse inadvance, waiting to see the precious artwork.

The artwork had been disappeared from sight for a long time. It would be a big hit when it hadreturned to the public.

Two staff members in black suits and white gloves presented the painting in front of the crowd.Many people were raving when they saw the painting. It was an excellent piece of art. Looking fromafar, one can tell that the strokes were thick and distinct. It was a rare work of the Yuan Dynasty.The people with the bid cards couldn't hide their excitement.

The auctioneer explained the rules in advance.

Those who could enter the hall were naturally clear about these rules.

The auctioneer first called out a starting price of 30 million, and then it could be increased by amillion each time.

As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, some had offered a price of 31 million.

It was followed by 32 million in a second.

The price kept going up.

Jane sat in the last row, quietly watching everything around her.

These people were crazy. They all wanted the painting to be theirs as soon as they heard it was onthe market.

However, according to the unspoken rules of the auction, there would be someone to raise theprice and create tension.

Jane knew Marina's style too well.

She had checked the auction company out as soon as she heard that Marina was about to sell theartwork.

Sure enough, something was going on between the person in charge of the company and MarinaJane didn't know why none of the appraisers from the company had found out that the artwork wasa forgery.

Of course, only Jane could distinguish between a painting so well forged and the original one.

This work was a copy by another artist. Its value couldn't be compared with the real one.

Jane started to buy as many traditional Chinese paintings as possible overseas before she hadreturned to Birmingham.

After all, this was her career and the thing she loved the most. Although she later transferred to oilpaintings, her love for traditional Chinese painting had never faded.

So when she found the "Fox Mountain residence” in Jason's safe, she immediately remembered herprevious collection.

Fortunately, she came back together with the artwork.

She still wanted to help her grandfather, Terence, finish what he always wanted to be completed.
