With that, the old man promptly introduced Loreen to Trevor, saying, “Come on, Loreen, meet Young Master Sun!”
Interestingly, Loreen’s grandfather, uncle, and father all share the same perspective on her future. They unanimously believe that Loreen should marry into a prominent family to ensure the Thomas family receives significant support.<fn1f58> Original content can be found at F?ndNovel</fn1f58>
This belief is why they arranged for Loreen to work at the Aurous Hill Emgrand Group.
However, despite Loreen spending a considerable amount of time in Aurous Hill, even the chairman of the Emgrand Group had yet to meet her, leading to a growing impatience within her family regarding this arrangement.
Now, as they looked at Trevor, they all envisioned a hopeful scenario: if Loreen could form a connection with Trevor, the Thomas family could soar to new heights.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
The moment Trevorid eyes on Loreen, he was captivated.
While Eastcliff is home to many beautiful women, few possess both beauty and a prestigious background. Though the Thomas family may not be at their peak, Loreen’s beauty is undeniable!
This immediately piqued Trevor’s interest in her.
With a charming demeanor, he extended his hand to Loreen and said, “Miss Thomas, it’s a pleasure to meet you!”
Loreen’s response was somewhat frosty; she intentionally refrained from shaking his hand, opting instead to nod and reply, “It’s nice to meet you too, Mr. Sun.”
Nearby, Loreen’s father, Franklin, quickly interjected, “Loreen! How can you be so rude? Why aren’t you shaking hands with Young Master Sun?!”
Loreen responded, “I apologize, Mr. Sun, but I just petted a stray cat at the door and haven’t had a chance to wash my hands.”
This made Trevor slightly ufortable. He couldn’t believe that Loreen would be so careless about hygiene, feeling it reflected poorly on him!
However, he chose not to express his frustration immediately; instead, he decided to remainposed to create a positive impression on Loreen for future interactions.
At that moment, Sam rushed over, carrying the folding fan that Charlie had brought along. He greeted Trevor with respect and said, “Oh, Master Sun, you’ve arrived just in time. This fool here is holding a fan that supposedly belonged to your uncle. I have my doubts about its authenticity; it seems he’s trying to use Chairman Sun’s reputation to pass off a fake!”
He then opened the fan and presented it to Trevor, saying respectfully, “Here, Master Sun, take a look! Is this the real deal?”
Trevor frowned; he wasn’t well-versed in antiques and had no idea how to determine the authenticity of the fan.
Just then, Sam added, “This fan is an artwork by the old master Baishi, depicting fortune and longevity. It’s rumored that your uncle acquired it for a staggering 48.88 million!”
Upon hearing this, Trevor mused that if the fan was indeed a genuine collection of his uncle’s, it would never be sold. His uncle held antique treasures in high regard, having invested in various renowned artworks over the years, with some pieces valued in the billions.
Even though the sale price of this fan was only 48.88 million, based on his understanding of his uncle, it was unlikely his uncle would part with such a collection.
Moreover, since Trevor and the Thomas family had no prior connection, there would be no reason for the Thomas family to present such a valuable item as a gift to Mrs. Thomas.
Thus, Trevor concluded that the fan before him must be a counterfeit!
With that thought in mind, he coldly inquired, “Who is the fool pretending to have my uncle’s collection? Do they have nothing better to do?”
