Chapter 21 Fake

Lorenzo was not one who would get angry easily, but he was truly enraged that night. Earlier, Ms. Lynch delivered a nonsensical critique of Mr. Emerentius‘ work. Now, Mr. Lund is saying that Harrison’s painting is fake. They’re clearly looking for trouble! As patient as I am, I can’t tolerate the two of them anymore. I want them gone now!

Emrys sneered, “You can argue with me all you want, but it doesn’t change the fact that it’s a fake. If none of you can tell, it means all of you are terrible.”
