Needless to say, Orson was coming over to greet her.
That was when an uninvited guest appeared before him. “I didn’t have an invitation, but here I am. I hope you won’t about that, Master Orson!”
The man wore designer labels and held a rolled-up painting in his arms.
“Who’s that? He seems familiar.” Bonnie was talking to herself when she heard someone’s voice beside her.
“He’s Grandpa’s rival, Kobe Fraser. If he’s here, it means something bad will happen.”
Turning sideways, she looked at Kay and asked, “Where did you come from?”
“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, Master! How did you get in? Also, you should’ve said something to me. I kept calling your phone, but no one answered.” Kay held her arms and kept shaking them non stop.
“Did you call me?” She pulled out her phone and checked it.
‘I didn’t turn off my phone, nor are there any missed calls.’
“Did you run out of credit?” Kay asked.
“Maybe you’re right.”
“I’ll reload it for you.”
“It’s…” Before she could finish her sentence, Kay had already reloaded her credit on her behalf.
“There, it’s done. I’ve reloaded a hundred and forty thousand dollars into your phone account. It’ll probably last you a lifetime.”
She didn’t know what to say for a moment there.
“How much did you reload again? It’s a joke. Isn’t it?” Rhys gulped and asked.
“Is that so? Grandpa’s painting goes for several million dollars a pop. So, what’s so surprising here?” With that, Kay looked at Bonnie and asked, “Do you know this guy, Master?”
“Yeah. We went to the same high school.”
“Oh.” Kay’s response was very brief. She wasn’t interested in Rhys.
On the other hand, both Rhys and Titus were shocked to the core.
‘This lady has just called Bonnie her ‘master.’ Moreover, is she Orson’s granddaughter?! If that’s the case, does that mean Bonnie didn’t need our help to get into the art exhibition in the first place? Was this young lady supposed to get her in?’
At the next moment, Rhys couldn’t help but lower his voice and asked Bonnie. “Is she Master Orson’s granddaughter?”
“Why, of course.” She responded.
Rhys and Titus swapped glances again. The shock in their eyes was unmistakable.
“How did you come to know her, then?”
“Back then, I saw Orson shadowboxing in the morning. His moves weren’t quite precise, and I gave him some pointers. That’s how I get to know both of them.” She responded casually.
Both of them gasped sharply. ‘Does that mean she knew Orson as well?’
“I think she’s bluffing.” Titus analyzed her words and said.
“What makes you think that?” Rhys asked.
“Come on. Just think about it. Master Orson is such a prestigious figure. Why would Bonnie, a nobody, come to know someone like him? With that said, I can believe that she knows Orson’s granddaughter. “Just look at us. My father’s a farm hand, but your family is wealthy. Didn’t we get along quite fine?”
“I guess so. Perhaps she wanted to look cool. That could be why she took one step too far and deliberately said that she knew Master Orson.”
Orson’s face fell. If it weren’t for preserving his reputation, he would’ve asked his men to chase Kobe out of his exhibition. “What are you doing here?”
“It’s your art exhibition, Orson. I brought a painting with me so you could look at it and give me your thoughts.”
He grunted coldly. “This is my art exhibition, yet you brought someone else’s painting over. Are you trying to stir up trouble here?”
“Don’t be mad, Orson. Why would I do something like that?”
