Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1060

“If I’m not mistaken, that’s a work of Michelangelo. It originally came in a pair. I previously had one of them in my collection…” The old man said.

“Michelangelo?” The stall owner was stunned. “Do you mean… The originator of purple clay teapot, Michelangelo? The one from the 15th century?”

“Yes…” The old man said.

“Oh my god… Then… How much does it worth?” The stall owner’s eyes were filled with shock.

“If it’s really a work of Michelangelo, it’d be worth at least ten million,” the old man said.

“What? Is this thing worth ten million? I sold it for 50,000. Why was I still foolishly giggling here? Am I stupid?” The stall owner felt remorseful, and he repeatedly stomped his feet in place.

“Well… Yes.” The old man turned around and left after saying that.

The stall owner was left fuming on his own. “D*mn! I’m really stupid!”

Meanwhile, the youngsters were thoroughly shocked. After looking at each other, they all took in a deep breath and started discussing amongst themselves—

“That thing is actually worth ten million.”

“So, that pretty lady isn’t stupid, but we are…”

“That’s unbelievable. Why is that lady so amazing?”

Now, they all felt deeply embarrassed at themselves.

The stall owner felt even worse.

Wasn’t he the greater fool? Now, he regretted selling it!

Seeing that Xyla hadn’t walked too far away, he instantly ran after her!

Meanwhile, with one hand holding the item she just bought and the other holding Sharon Lindt’s hand, she happily walked through the crowd. Occasionally, she would glance at the purple clay teapot.

“Xyla… This looks like a real antique. I wonder who made it,” Sharon said.

“We’ll find out who made it once we remove this outer layer of encrustation,” Xyla said and chuckled.
