“Mr. Howard had excellent academic performance and won so many talent competitions that his hands
were tired from holding the awards. Mr. Watson, don’t miss out on such an ideal son–in–law
candidate!”
Rylan barely furrowed his brows, a faint smile lingering on his gentle and handsome face, “My Audra is
still young, focusing all her energy on her studies. Besides, children nowadays make their own
decisions. about their feelings. As a father, I can only serve as a reference.”
Rylan had just glanced at Audrey, who was standing next to Danna. When the guests were praising
Corbin, she quietly rolled her eyes, her expression was indescribable, not looking like the rumors of her
being fond of Corbin.
Corbin didn’t see Audrey’s expression, but Rylan must have had a good impression of him. After all, he
was the only one who had given him such a valuable and pleasing gift today!
Just as Corbin was feeling somewhat smug, thinking he had made a deep impression on Audrey’s
father, the manager of Azure Haven Hotel came over with two staff members dressed in uniforms and
wearing white gloves.
“Hello Mr. Watson, I was entrusted to deliver a birthday gift to you.”
The manager nodded at the staff behind him, and the staff slowly unfolded a color ink painting.
The guests, who had been praising the four treasures of the study gifted by Corbin, were stunned the
moment they saw the scroll being unrolled.
“Wasn’t this one of the masterpieces. “Forest,” by Wu Lao, one of the most famous painters of the 20th
century?”

by someone for 50 million.
Compared to the millions of stationery treasures Corbin had just now, the appearance of this painting
simply shocked everyone.
“Mr. Watson, Mr. Wu’s paintings are not something that can be bought with money, the gift giver is
really thoughtful!”
“There are always people beyond people, and heavens beyond heavens. Today, Mr. Watson’s birthday
banquet really opened our eyes!”
Rylan looked at this “Forest“, feeling utterly astounded inside.
A while ago, he had been to an auction. At that time, this painting “Forest” was directly reserved and
was auctioned off by someone. He had regretted it for some time.
Unexpectedly, someone actually gave it to him today.
Rylan looked at the hotel manager, his brow slightly furrowed as he asked, “Manager, may I ask who
sent this painting?”
