Chapter 175-1
Not A Small-Town Girl
When Emma heard Willy say that the painting Danielle had given was real, she panicked.
"Mr. Thaddeus, how can you say this one is real? You canât be unfair just because you know Danielle! You were clearly nodding your head when you looked at the painting I gave Mr. Barnes just now, but now youâre saying that the one Danielle gave you is real."
Everyone thought Emma had a point, so they all looked at Willy, wanting him to explain.
"Youâre the one who made a fake painting, and now youâre getting angry out of embarrassment. Donât stand on your moral high ground and speak sarcastically to me. I wonât accept moral blackmail."
"I nodded because I thought the person who made this high imitation painting you gave me was quite skilled, but a fake is a fake. Amateurs canât tell the difference, but experts can tell at a glance. This painting is miles away from Chimeraâs work."
"I shook my head because no one can match Chimeraâs paintings. Even if I were to live ten lifetimes, I wouldnât be able to surpass them."
"Besides, every painting by Chimera has a secret code of her name in the upper left corner. Yours obviously doesnât, so what are you babbling about with this fake painting?"
"You spent 25 million dollars on this painting, but did you know that a few years ago, I offered Chimera 300 million dollars for her painting âTowards The Sunâ and she didnât agree? Your 25 million dollars is not even a fraction of that."
Everyone was stunned when they heard what Willy said. They knew that Chimerasâs paintings were rare and highly sought after. Many of the people present were fans of her. Unfortunately, not only were her paintings expensive, but they were also impossible to buy. Willy had a very high position in the art world, and no one expected him to offer Chimera such high praise.
"Besides, how could a painting given by Chimera herself be fake? You guys are even still looking for someone to appraise it. Itâs purely an insult to Chimera, you a bunch of petty people."
Willy directly revealed Danielleâs identity as Chimera like a bomb dropped directly into the banquet hall.
This time, everyone was truly stunned.
It turned out that Danielle was Chimera.
Even David was shocked that his girlfriend had such an identity.
It was Logan who reacted first, followed by Giancarlo. The two old men rushed directly to Danielle and said excitedly, "Danielle, are you really Chimera?"
Danielle felt a bit stunned. She never expected her true colors to be exposed just by attending a birthday party. But since she had been exposed, there was nothing to hide. "Yes, itâs me."
Everyone gasped in shock. Emma didnât expect Danielle to be Chimera. Even she, who didnât understand painting, knew about the mysterious artist, the big shot in the art world.
"Impossible, how old is Danielle? How could she be Chimera?"
Cherylâs face turned pale as she looked at Danielle. She couldnât believe that Danielle was Chimera.
Danielle curled her lips into a cold smile and said, "Donât use your limited intelligence to imagine someone elseâs life, after all, even if you live your whole life, you wonât be able to reach it."
"You..." Emmaâs eyes were filled with jealousy. She didnât understand why Danielle got all the good things.
Audrey kept trying to make herself less noticeable. She didnât expect Danielle to have such an identity. Her eyes, filled with jealousy, seemed to burn with poison as she glared at Danielle. âHow many identities does this damn bitch have?â
Danielle was becoming an increasingly greater threat to her now.
"Chimera, I am your fan. I like the painting you gave me very much. Thank you for coming to my birthday party. Logan is really lucky."
Giancarlo looked at Danielle excitedly and adoringly. At that moment, he was really like a fan meeting their idol.
