She Is a Student at Strasbourg
Monica didn''t notice Jennifer''s expression. She kept signaling to Seraphina with her eyes.
Don''t refuse!
I really want it!
Seraphina pressed her lips together. She hesitated momentarily and asked, "How much? I''ll buy it."
She wasn''t trying to go against Jennifer; it was Monica who wanted it.
Since Monica was Hansen''s mother, she couldn''t just turn around and leave.
"Girly, I sold a piece to the royal family in Or for nine million Ofls. How much are you willing to pay?"
Seraphina was surprised.
Monica and Jennifer were even more shocked.
Jennifer had always considered herself worldly, but she hadn''t delved deeply into the cultural sphere.
A painting worth nine million Ofls?
Shouldn''t that be in a museum?
Seraphina raised an eyebrow; it was worth that much.
She knew that Monica had genuinely wanted it. Seraphina nodded, her casual demeanor carrying an undeniable authority. "Then I''ll offer double that."
She couldn''t appear stingy.
Lucas choked on Seraphina''s nonchnt attitude.
"Haha, very generous."
"You''re worth it," Seraphina replied with a slight smile.
A few seconds passed, and Lucas snorted coldly.
"I''m not selling it to you!"
With that, he turned to leave.
Jennifer sneered triumphantly.
So much for Seraphina.

Monica, however, looked anxiously at Lucas. She couldn''t let this opportunity slip away
Seraphina sighed helplessly and finally spoke up to stop Lucas from leaving.

"Don''t do this to me. Can you cut me some ck, my dearest teacher?"
Teacher?
Finished
Seraphina''s resigned tone left everyone present slightly stunned.
Lucas finally stopped in his tracks, his sharp gaze flickering with amusement.
He snorted coldly, but his tone carried a hint of rebuke and regret.
"Those who give up halfway don''t deserve to be my students!"
Seraphina was the only apprentice he had ever taken on, but she only learned from him for less than six months before turning to the business world.
Lucas had finally taken on an apprentice, but her abrupt decision to pursue business left him so furious that he could hardly eat for days.
He was utterly disappointed and infuriated! And now she wanted to buy his painting? Wishful thinking!
He had intended to use this opportunity to teach Seraphina a lesson, but when the stubborn girl acted cute around him, all of his pent-up anger actually dissipated.
"Teacher?
"Student?
"What''s going on, Seraphina?
"How do you know, Mr. Stroudsburg?"
Monica''s mind was flooded with questions.
Jennifer began to grasp the rtionship between them and let out a coldugh.
"Mrs. Colombo, can''t you see? Ms. Cross and Mr. Strasbourg are old acquaintances. No wonder he refused to sell to me. If you really want that painting, why not ask Seraphina? Mr. Stroudsburg would surely not refuse her." She deliberately linked Seraphina and the painting together.
Seraphina frowned slightly. Jennifer''s words were incredibly irksome, leaving her feeling ufortable.
Lucas, however, looked at them and sneered more openly.
"Sorry to disappoint you, but I won''t sell it to her either. I''ve already promised it to someone else."
The light that had just sparked in Monica''s eyes dimmed instantly.
Well, there was nothing she could do then.
Seraphina was torn. When she saw Monica''s disappointed expression, she paused and then lifted her gaze.
"Don''t you still have many unpublished pieces in your collection? ''Sunrise is beautiful, sell it to me."

Lucas''s lips twitched slightly.
The audacity!
Either auctioned or kept as treasures, the unpublished pieces were worth a fortune!
Particrly, ''Sunrise'' had toured world museums!
She was asking as if she were shopping for clothes!
Lucas red at her for a while before finally snorting.
"One million. If you want it, take it."
Seraphina felt a burst of joy. The old man had softened, giving her a friend''s discount.
Lucas once received a hundred million dor offer for Sunrise, but he didn''t sell it.
