Chapter 22
“Do you want this painting?” Joe whispered.
Skylar shook her head. “No.”
Would she have looked at it so intently if she was not interested?
What a duplicitous person!
Joe’s expression was still cold.
Jeffrey stared at the painting confusedly. “Why do I feel like I’ve seen this painting somewhere?”
“Antique paintings have a lot of similarities. I also find it familiar. It looks like…” Maísy thought of the painting that was hanging at the Williamses.
It was the painting Skylar gifted Sadie. Sadie hadn’t even taken a second look at the painting. It did look. like this painting.
“That’s impossible. How could that be?” Maisy denied her
guess.
Skylar must have gotten the painting from Amazon for not more than ten dollars. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Skylar couldn’t have had access to a painting that could be auctioned.
“What’s impossible?” Jeffrey asked curiously.
“It’s nothing, Dad. Wow, this painting could actually be sold for two million dollars!” Maisy was shocked when she heard the price that was being called out.
Jeffrey didn’t understand art, but he suddenly thought of the painting they had in a corner of their house. It looked like this painting.
“Three million dollars!” Joe made a bid suddenly.
Skylar looked at Joe in surprise. “Do you like this painting?”
She’d sold the painting for 500 thousand dollars. The price had now been three million dollars by Joe. This artist’s painting had never been sold for more than two million dollars!
