Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) -
Chapter 329
Jane followed Simon.
They were about to pass Oliver's office when the door of the president's office was suddenlyopened and Jane heard two familiar voices.
She didn't know why it was so coincidental.
Jasmine had a pile of documents in her hand, and Oliver opened the door in the front.
In an instant, Oliver and Jane looked at each other.
He didn't want to see Jane at first. He just asked Simon to pick her up and see if she could makesome unique comments.
Unexpectedly, they met head-on, just there and then.
Jasmine also saw Simon, who brought two strange women to the top floor. Naturally, she knewwhat kind of people they were, or else he wouldn't be needed to receive them.
She glanced at Jane and stared at her for a few seconds.
Jane pretended to be calm and greeted Oliver.
She smiled and said, "Mr. Williams, I'm sorry to disturb you.”
Oliver did not say anything and quickly looked away from Jane.
Perhaps he wasn't comfortable with Jane's tone.
Even Jasmine, who was standing by, heard Jane's coquettish tone as if she felt a threat. She glaredat Jane coldly.
Then Jasmine said to Oliver, "Mr. Williams, let's go there early, or else the following arrangement willbe postponed.”
Jane could tell from Jasmine's words that they were going out immediately.
She heaved a sigh of relief. If she had known, she would have come back after Oliver and Jasmineleft, and she wouldn't have been so nervous for so long.
Oliver and Jasmine quickly walked into the elevator.
Simon said, "Miss Kim, Mr. Williams'm busy today. Otherwise, he will personally come to receiveyou."
Jane knew that Simon was just being polite.
Oliver did everything without scruples. If he didn't like it, he could put it all on his face. However, asan assistant, Simon could only play it off on one side.
"It's okay. I know Mr. Williams is very busy, and I don't want to waste his time.”
Jane wanted Oliver not to be here all the time.
By then, all she had to do was tell Simon all the data and ask Simon to pass it on to Oliver, whichwas more convincing than what she said herself.
After all, once a person lost trust in you, no matter what you said, he would be skeptical.
They arrived at the conference room.
Simon opened the painting completely.
Jane and Vivian both took out their white gloves and put them on their hands before carefullypicking up the painting that Simon had opened.
Although Jane didn't know how many times she had seen this painting, she still pretended to see itfor the first time in front of Simon. She observed and distinguished it carefully.
She looked at it seriously for a long time and said with a smile, "Simon, it's really hard for me to tellthe authenticity of this painting with only my eye. This painting is a good one, but I can't be sure ifit's the original. You also know that the replica is far from the original, even if the various ink andbrush techniques of the replica are perfect.”
Jane first analyzed the painting techniques for Simon. How could Simon understand this? He onlylistened to Jane's endless explanation.
"Then since you can't tell, do you know any powerful appraisal masters and can you recommendedone to us?" Simon said.
Jane turned around and pointed to an instrument box on the table behind her.
"Now that technology is advanced, there are already instruments that can measure the age of thematerial. Through this, the year of the painting can basically be determined.
I wonder if Simon has ever heard of a painting of Da Vinci that was copied by perople in latergenerations. Almost no one can tell the real from the fake.
Because it was too similar to the original. It was only after the instrument detected that the copiedproduct used oil paint that was not available in the renaissance that the authenticity of the paintingwas determined. "
"Miss Kim, do you want to use a similar method?" Simon asked in confusion.
"I specially brought a high-tech product today. Through the analysis of the drawing paper, it can tellthe age of the paper. If this method is used, it must be more accurate.”
"Okay, I understand. Then Miss Kim, please start.”
Vivian opened the instrument box, took out something that looked like a scanner, and scanned theentire painting.
Jane recorded all the data on the computer, and then found the source of the drawing paper in thedatabase by using large data.
The current "Fox Mountain residence” used raw rice paper made of double-silk fabric, and this ricepaper appeared in the early 1900s.
Therefore, this work could not be the original work in the 1800s. It should be a copy of latergenerations.
However, the level of copying was very high, to the point that it looked extremely real.
Jane explained her analysis to Simon in detail, mainly to get Simon to convince Oliver.
Before that, she wanted to let Mr. Langston to tell him about the real one he had seen. Later, shefelt that it was not appropriate. She was afraid that if Oliver was suspicious, he would go and checkit himself.
Fortunately, Oliver wasn't there. Otherwise, no one knew what questions he would ask.
Simon was completely persuaded by Jane.
There was indeed something wrong with this painting.
Oliver and Jasmine went to a business event and told Jasmine that he was leaving halfway.Jasmine had already told him about this event a few days earlier. It was an important meeting, soOliver made time in advance to come over.
It was supposed to last the whole morning. Oliver had just arrived but he wanted to leave now.
He was still thinking about the painting that had been taken to the conference room. He didn'tknow what different comments Jane would say after she saw it.
Oliver wanted to go back and see with his own eyes how Jane identified it. He was afraid that shewas playing some tricks on him.
He really didn't trust Jane.
Jasmine wanted to keep Oliver here until the end of the event.
Oliver didn't listen to her and left the event early. He left everything to Jasmine and left.
Williams Group.
Jane asked Simon to write down all the details she could say and report them to Oliver carefullywhen he came back.
She asked Vivian to pack up the equipment and get ready to leave.
Simon looked at the time and it was almost noon. He said, "Miss Kim, if you don't mind, you canhave a casual meal at our group's restaurant.”
The Williams Group restaurant was also a place that Jane would never forget.
At that time, when she just came to work at the Williams Group, she was targeted by the secretaryin the office. When she went to the restaurant to eat, she was usually alone, and no one wanted tosit with her.
At that time, Oliver was indifferent to what happened to her.
Now that she was back, she didn't know what to do with going to the restaurant.
However, no matter what, she no longer cared.
