Chapter 524
Charles‘ expression overflowed with pride as he uttered those words. Initially, he didn’t quite understand Skylar’s job when she mentioned working in Alexander’s team.
However, after looking into and confirming it with Steven, he realized just how impressive it was for Skylar to be part of Alexander’s team.
Charles couldn’t help but feel proud of having such a talented sister like Skylar.
“Mr. Gardner Senior’s team?” Brigham followed up after Charles.
It was only after the words left Charles‘ mouth that Brigham reacted. His eyes widened in surprise as he looked at Skylar. “There is only one Mr. Gardner
Senior in Jipsburg City. Are you on his team?”
People in Jipsburg City, especially collectors of various antiques and
paintings, knew Alexander’s reputation well. Moreover, Alexander was known to be peculiar. He didn’t accept anyone without genuine skills.
Being able to join Alexander’s team meant being among the top in the industry.
If one left Alexander’s team to work in various auction houses, their compensation would be several times higher than others. Those auction houses would definitely be competing to get them.
No wonder Skylar didn’t need to join the entertainment industry. This was a genuine skill.
Brigham felt incredibly lucky today and thought he was absolutely right when he chose Charles as the second male lead.
Skylar nodded with a smile. “Yes, I am currently in Mr. Gardner Senior’s team.”
“At such a young age too! You have such impressive talent. Today, I’m really fortunate. Charles, your sister is remarkable.” Brigham immediately turned to Charles.
Charles scratched his head. He was happier about Skylar being praised than himself. “Skylar has been smart since she was young.”
While they were talking, the crew members brought over dinner.
”
Brigham suddenly felt embarrassed by the crew’s dinner.
“Uh, how about I take you both to a restaurant?” he suggested.
Charles seldom saw Brigham this friendly and accommodating. He felt
somewhat uneasy and said, “No need. The boxed meals from the crew are fine.
“I haven’t tried the crew’s boxed meals yet; I’d like to,” Skylar chimed in.
Brigham didn’t insist further. He was even more impressed with Charles‘ and Skylar’s personalities. Especially Skylar, at such a young age, she was not only more beautiful than most female celebrities but also genuinely talented.
Even while casually chatting over dinner, Skylar identified the small object Brigham was fiddling with as belonging to a particular dynasty with its own intriguing backstory.
Brigham was left dumbfounded. He didn’t dare say much. He was afraid that despite his age, he might not know enough and be ridiculed.
Suddenly, he thought Skylar could be a consultant for future period dramas. There wouldn’t be any mistakes then, for sure.
When the painting finally arrived, Brigham gingerly unfolded it in front of Skylar.
Skylar examined it closely. Brigham stood nervously beside her.
While 50 million dollars wasn’t much to him, if it was a forgery, there was no point in keeping it at home where guests might mock him.
Charles was also nervous. This was the first time he saw Skylar at work. She was really…
Skylar was really outstanding.
After all, if the painting was shown to him, he couldn’t see anything in it. He just felt that this painting looked pretty artistic.
After carefully examining it from top to bottom, Skylar finally spoke slowly, “It’s authentic, not a forgery. However, there are a few areas where the color has been touched up. Apart from that, everything else is fine. It seems the person who did the touch–ups wasn’t very skilled. You can tell upon closer inspection.”
Skylar said, “Mr. Cohen, take a look here… And here…‘
Chapter 524
Skylar pointed out the areas that had been touched up.
Brigham was dumbfounded. “If you hadn’t pointed it out, I wouldn’t have
noticed. Skye, you’re amazing! Let me know how much this appraisal costs. I’ll transfer the amount to you now.”
