As soon as the jade piece was shown, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Maria's eyelids twitched, and Anthony smiled playfully.

“Alas... my apologies for this, Mr. Wilson," Mathias sighed helplessly. He took a glance at the “Eight Immortals" and shook his head regretfully.

“What's wrong with your eyes? Are you blind? Can you not see that this is not Vincent's signature work?"

Cory was dumbstruck and remembered what Maria had just told him.

Was it counterfeit?

Cory turned red with embarrassment and regret. Still, he asked, "Dad, how is that even possible? I just purchased it directly from the exhibition area of the Jadforest Garden. If it's fake then it means..."

“Mr. Smith, Master Vincent provides all the exhibits, but nowhere did he claim that all the pieces were his work."

Anthony was now the biggest shareholder of the Jadforest Garden, so he had to defend any attack against it.

Cory exclaimed in disbelief, “Are you trying to tell me that Vincent sells fakes? What's going on here?"

It was ludicrous

How could this showpiece be fake?

This time Mathias spoke up before Anthony because he was knowledgeable about the facts.

“In addition to the work of the master himself, it is incumbent upon him to showcase the work of his budding disciples. Are you completely brainless? Can't you see that this is actually the work of Vincent's disciple?"

Mathias pointed their attention to the base of the “Eight Immortals".

“Turn it over and have a look. If it's Vincent's work, then it will have his exclusive signature, the letter G."

Cory quickly turned it over and found that there was indeed a signature, but it was not the letter G.

The mark was a simple line drawing of a cloud. He had never seen that sign before.

“Well... It's certainly not Vincent's work." Dismayed, Cory murmured, “I paid just over four million dollars for it

He grieved his loss, but Mathias was very happy.
