Cassandra just nodded and said nothing more.
Kayden delivered a speech on the stage and thanked everyone for coming. All of them were very hospitable under the stage.
Kenneth asked Cassandra softly, “Let’s go up and celebrate Maximilian’s birthday for him.”
Cassandra nodded and agreed with his arrangement.
Suddenly, someone went ahead of them. It was a father and daughter with gifts in their hands. They walked up to Maximilian.
“Maximilian, happy birthday to you.” The man pointed at his daughter and said, “This is my little girl, Evelyn White.”
He tilted his head and said to Evelyn, “Hurry up. This is Maximilian Yates.”
Evelyn had a beautiful face with big curls, which made her look like a professional. woman! And she looked very savvy.
“Maximilian, I wish y

a long life.” Evelyn greeted politely, but her eyes drifted to
When Lydia saw that, she immediately came to Cassandra and said, “Look. That woman likes Kayden.”
Cassandra was speechless.
She thought, ‘How did she tell that?
‘Isn’t that woman acting normal?”
Cassandra looked at Lydia suspiciously, and Lydia immediately came up to her. “Don’t you believe it? Absolutely! Her reaction was so obvious but Kayden didn’t. even take a look.”
Cassandra thought, ‘Well, I can’t tell.’
“Maximilian, this is the birthday gift I prepared for you.” Evelyn pretended to be mysterious and opened the scroll. She said excitedly. “This is the painting It prepared for you, Maximilian. It’s ‘Spring‘ created by Mr. Gale Maguire. Do you

“Wow! Is this Spring created by Mr. Gale Maguire? It’s incredible!”
“I’m so lucky to see the real painting of Spring. Miss White, this is a big present.”
“What does that mean? Does the White family want to carry a marriage of convenience with the Yates family?”
“What do you mean?”
“Ah, you know. A mysterious collector offered 40 million dollars for the Spring of Mr. Gale Maguire at the beginning, but Mr. Gale Maguire didn’t sell it. Miss White must have spent a lot of money on it. If it wasn’t for marriage, who would want to spend so much money?”
“Well, it seems to be true. Is this a win–win cooperation?”
“Nope! The Yates family is a top wealthy family, and the White family is just an ordinary one.”
“They’re wealthy as well.”
“Everyone here is from a rich and powerful family, but we are not so lucky to buy the painting of Mr. Gale Maguire that Maximilian likes.”
Maximilian looked very surprised. He even leaned forward to have a careful look. and said excitedly. “This is really Spring?”
Evelyn smiled brightly. “Of course, I bought this from Mr. Gale Maguire. He heard that I want to give it to a very respectable elder so that the master is willing to give. it up.”
Hearing this, Cassandra was speechless.
She thought, ‘No I didn’t. I haven’t seen this woman. How can I sell the painting to her?
‘Besides, if this painting was real, what is the one in the trunk of my car?”
Lydia leaned forward again and said, “She really invested a lot to get Kayden.”
The original bid was 40 million dollars. If she bought it directly, she would get about 60 million dollars. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sold it..

“This Spring is a fake,” Cassandra whispered to Lydia.
Lydia’s eyes widened and thought, ‘Really?‘
Cassandra nodded.

The old man on the stage calmed himself down and asked, “Miss White, this painting is too expensive to be a present. How much did you pay for it? I’ll ask Kayden to pay to you later and it’s on me.”
Evelyn glanced at Kayden and immediately looked at Maximilian angrily, “What are you talking about? I bought this for you. It’s against the rules to accept money. Or is it a gift from me that you don’t want, Maximilian?”
Maximilian glanced at her indifferently. Although he was old, he was not confused. He knew what the White family was up to, so he didn’t want to get involved with them at all.
He certainly didn’t want this painting to be sent by Evelyn. If it was from Cassandra, he would have to take it with him wherever he went.
“Maximilian, this is just a gift. Please accept it.” Evelyn was a little dissatisfied when she saw Maximilian refused to accept it.
How dare this old man refuse her!
“Well, thank you very much, Miss White.” There were so many people here, and it was hard to make it clear to her. He would let his two sons negotiate with her in private. If she was willing to sell it, that would be great; if not, they could only give
it back.
Unexpectedly, Lydia suddenly stepped forward and looked at the painting with some “sharpness“. “Oh, is this Mr. Gale Maguire’s Spring? However, it doesn’t look like much!”
Lydia deliberately rubbed her fingertips against the painting and said, “The paint. looks so new. Isn’t this a painting Mr. Gale Maguire made three years ago? But the paper and paint are somewhat new.”
Lydia’s words made Maximilian suspicious. It looked very new, but the style and brushwork were very similar to those of Mr. Gale Maguire.
He thought, ‘It can’t be fake.

“Mrs. Frey, what do you mean?” Evelyn’s face was a little embarrassed, but she kept smiling.
She had read almost all the information about Kayden. And she knew this was Eddie’s wife, one of Kayden’s friends.
So, in order to impress Kayden, she didn’t make things difficult for her.
“Nothing. I heard that Mr. Gale Maguire hasn’t sold his paintings in recent years. Where did you buy it?
Lydia believed in Cassandra. If she said that Mr. Gale Maguire didn’t sell paintings, he must not be.
She thought, ‘Ms. Yates is such amazing. She knows everything!”
She saw the embarrassment between Maximilian and Kayden, so she came up after asking her husband for instructions.
Evelyn looked a little unhappy. “Of course, I bought it from Mr. Gale Maguire some time ago. Mrs. Frey, don’t talk nonsense in this way. I will never buy a fake painting to cheat Maximilian.”
Lydia shrugged and thought, ‘Who knows?”
“So you’ve met Mr. Gale Maguire?” Lydia continued to ask. “What kind of person is Mr. Gale Maguire? Is he tall or short, male or female? How old is he now?”
Evelyn smiled confidently. It turned out that she wanted to know this. “Mr. Gale Maguire is an immortal–like old man in his fifties. He’s very amiable and not as alienated as the rumors say. Instead, he’s very friendly. I spent 60 million dollars buying this painting from Mr. Gale Maguire just for Maximilian’s birthday.” Evelyn. sneered, “Do you have any questions?”
“What you said sounds real.” Lydia snorted. “But as far as I know, Mr. Gale Maguire is a woman and not an old man in his 50s. Miss White, are you fooled?”
Lydia’s tone sounded like she was aggressive.
The people under the stage felt a little unbelievable. They felt that there was going to be a fight.
