The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 294

Nicole's body instinctively stiffened for a moment. It was too late to avoid him.

Eric Ferguson had already walked in front of her with big strides.

He took out the photo from his pocket. His brow was slightly furrowed as he stared intently at the painting on the wall.

It was exactly the same.

His face was pale. "How did..."

Mr. Wilheim glanced at the photo in Eric's hand and said in a nonchalant voice, "Oh, so it was you who stole my photo..."

Eric's face was sullen. He swept a glance at Nicole, but she deliberately did not look at him.

Nicole’s light makeup was exquisite. Her long pink dress outlined her perfect figure in all the right places and made her look so stunning. She did not look as cold as usual, but softer. She was so beautiful that he could not take his eyes off her.

Eric’s gaze darkened slightly. "Mr. Wilheim, this photo"

"Yup, I took this photo. This girl dragged you out of that place while I was drinking coffee across the street. This is one of my most satisfying works. Want i

t?"

The old man's words made Nicole’s previous denial that she was not the person in the painting invalid.

Once Nicole heard this, she became furious. "Old Master, how could you?! I was the one who asked first!"

He just said that it was not for sale, so if he wanted to sell it, it should be a first come first served rule.

The old man looked at Eric Ferguson with a smile.

"I always sell my work based on my mood and whoever's more pleasing to my eye."

Mr. Wilheim treated the painting that Gillian and Chloe Snyder wanted last time the same way.

Eric’s gaze was deep with a faint spark in them. He hooked his lips.

"I want it. Mr. Wilheim, state your price."

Any amount was worth it!

Mr. Wilheim's smile deepened as he extended one index finger.

Eric did not hesitate to turn to Mitchell, who was behind him, and instructed, "Transfer $100 million to Mr. Wilheim immediately."

Mitchell was shocked. '$100 million for a painting?! Even an heirloom antique masterpiece isn’t so valuable...’

Mr. Wilheim smiled and glanced at Nicole. "Transfer it

to her, since I painted her anyway."

Nicole was so exasperated that she could not speak.' This old man lost his mind!'

She could not stay there for another second.

Just when Nicole was about to leave in a huff, Nathaniel walked over with a frivolous smile. "Nikki, you're here! I was looking for you everywhere..."

"Hey, Uncle Eric. Why are you here too?"

When Eric saw Nathaniel, his face sank. His eyes turned even colder when he heard Nathaniel calling her "Nikki" so intimately.
