Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 460

Carlene turned pale as a ghost, her eyes full of disbelief.

She had figured Maja was easy prey, but who would have guessed the woman could argue like that?

She couldn't argue back on any point!

And people were starting to whisper.

"I've been thinking about it for a while; Carlene acts just like a mistress."

"And flaunting her necklace in front of the wife, she has no shame."

"The Shepard family isn't rolling in cash; what's she showing off for?"

Carlene was about to keel over, glaring at Maja with pure hatred.

How dare this ugly wench humiliate her like this?

Bitch!

Damn it!

She was barely holding it together; she was just itching to slap her!

But she had to keep her cool.

Just when things were heating up, Grandma Edith spoke up, clearly trying to defuse the situation.

"We're here to appraise the paintings; can we stop with the irrelevant chatter?"

Maja chuckled lightly, looking at the appraiser.

The appraiser cleared his throat, drawing everyone's attention to him.

Carlene felt extremely embarrassed.

The last time Holden criticized her was in Rosewood Manor; at least no one knew about that.

But now that this ugly woman was humiliating her in front of everyone, she was fuming.

Taking a deep breath, she vowed to get her revenge when the chance arrived!

Meanwhile, the appraiser at the long table had started his evaluation.

After ten minutes, he was done with both paintings, and then he looked at Carlene.

"Ms. Shepard's painting is real; this one has been faked."

Maja raised an eyebrow; the result was exactly as she expected.

As soon as the appraiser finished, Edith stood up.

"Maja, anything to say?"

This whole affair was a colossal embarrassment for Edith; as the elder, she didn't expect things to get this out of hand.

But going to court would be even more humiliating.
