How rude was that live-in son-in-law! How could he speak to the master in such a way!
The crowd also pointed and commented on Darryl’s rudeness.
“So rude!”
“Even though you have some knowledge of appraising antiques, you shouldn’t be so arrogant! He is a master!”
Suddenly, they heard Simon’s voice on the phone as he exclaimed, “Is that you, Mister Darby? I’m sorry, I must not have seen it!”
What?
Had the master addressed the man as Mister Darby? In such a polite tone? What had happened?
Everyone was speechless. The entire Greenway Road had stayed silent.
Matt was confused. Did his master know that live-in son-in-law?
Darryl smiled and replied, “Simon, do not appraise a painting unless you are absolutely confident about it. Do you know you might give the wrong information?”
Darryl and Simon were both apprentices of Stellan Smith; Darryl was Simon’s senior.
Even though Simon was famous and did well in the antique business, he had started with nothing. He could not even differentiate a genuine coin from a fake one.
One of his mistakes even cost one of his customers’ tens of million bucks. The customer was about to kill him before Darryl went to his rescue.
That was why Simon would forever be grateful to Darryl. As he listened to Darryl’s words, Simon nodded. “I’m sorry, I was mistaken. The painting is fake…”
Everyone was stunned. They looked at Darryl as if he was a monster.
Yvonne bit her lips and looked at Darryl. She was so amazed at what Darryl had done. She could barely hold on to herself. She wanted to kneel and worship the man.
‘This man is just so unpredictable,’ she thought.
