Chapter 1001 Oh, yes, Serena Collins! “Serena, what's your take on this?" Not only did Nancy fail to grasp Serena's point, but she also called her out in front of everyone, "You're worldly-wise, so tell me, is Mirabelle a man or a woman, old or young? Moreover, is this landscape painting the work of Mirabelle?" Serena, having been singled out, reluctantly stood up. Her gaze shifted to Arabella; in front of all these people, she simply couldn't bring herself to call her sister.
Fortunately, Arabella didn't seem to take her seriously, appearing nonchalant.
"Mirabelle is a woman, and her age is indeed not that old,” Serena said grudgingly, casting a glance at Arabella.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf she lied, wouldn't Arabella throw the evidence right in her face in front of everyone? Along tago, when George and Jennifer visited the Collins family, they had personally confirmed that Arabella was the renowned painter Mirabelle and the calligrapher Labella. If Serena tried to bluff now, she would be the one to lose face.
Rather than embarrassing herself, it was better to let her friend Nancy bear the brunt.
"Mirabelle is a woman? Just like the straight-A student said?" "So, is Nancy lying?" “Are you saying Nancy is trying to put on a brave face?" Weren't Nancy and Serena good friends? Why would Serena personally embarrass her? Whispers spread through the crowd.
Nancy clearly couldn't believe that Serena would disgrace her in front of so many people.
That was not what friends did! "Serena, didn't your family spend ten million dollars on a painting by Mirabelle a year ago?" Suddenly, someone remembered this and hurriedly asked Serena.
Serena gladly changed the subject, "Yes, our family did indeed purchase a painting by Mirabelle for ten million dollars last year." “Serena, your family is so rich, just buying a ten million dollar painting like that. The McMillian family can afford ten million, and so can you. No wonder you two could becin-laws." People started to flatter again.
Serena felt a bit uneasy. She was afraid Arabella would publicly expose her fake-rich-girl act, and even more afraid Arabella would deny her engagement to Romeo. So, she preempted, “Alright, the competition is about to start.
Let's focus on that." "Serena, since your family has bought Mirabelle’s work, can you tell us, does Mirabelle really not give any discounts?” Someone else asked.

Everyone was surprised that the straight-A student was more knowledgeable than Nancy and was on the slevel as Serena. In contrast, Nancy seemed a bit pitiful and pathetic.
Nancy couldn't understand why Serena wouldn't help her. Serena could only quietly make up an excuse to divert her.
And the people from Westerly College, looking at Arabella, were all full of admiration.
The straight-A student was really impressive.
She easily embarrassed the people from Summerfield College! “Arabella, you're amazing!" No wonder President Barton personally chose her to lead the team. She truly had the ability and strength.
