Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)

Chapter 2063

Old Madam Bane's birthday was fast approaching. So, Tritus, her god-grandson, naturally had to

prepare for the big day.

Hence, in order to choose a few birthday presents, he came to the business premise run by his family,

The Whimsical Antiquities Emporium.

Yet, he couldn't believe the world would be so small that he would stumble upon his enemy on his

family's business premises.

"Hold up." Tritus shot a smug glance at Matthew while he approached them before he continued, "We

won't sell you this painting!"

Since enemies naturally loathed each other when they met, Tritus was using this rare opportunity to

cause trouble for Matthew. He had overheard their conversation earlier and knew that Matthew was

interested in this painting, so there was no way he would let this chance slip by his gleeful fingers.

"What's the matter? Are you riding roughshod over your customers just because your store is the

largest in this piazza?"

Matthew also couldn't believe the random store he found in the antiquities piazza would turn out to be

under the Lullaby Family's management. To make matters worse, he had even run into Tritus here.

Tritus had to smother a triumphant grin when he saw that he had Matthew under his thumb. Hah, I

wonder how it feels to be so close yet so far from the object of your desire, dear Matthew.

Nonetheless, he had a malicious smirk on his lips as he said disdainfully, "That's right. We're riding

roughshod over our customers. What of it? Are you thinking of pulling a daylight robbery?"

Matthew certainly wouldn't bother wasting his time on Tritus if it were any other antique. Honestly, he

would just turn around and leave.

But the item in question was the painting, Two Swallows in a Spring Pond. It was the original artwork by

Sir Micah! This was such a steal that he refused to allow this purchase to pass him by.

Matthew knew he might never have the chance to buy it for the rest of his life if he missed it due to his

irritation with Tritus.

Just when the two were at a stalemate, Mr. Wadley, who was on the side, panicked. I had a hard time

scamming this young man earlier. If Mr. Tritus ruins the deal, not only will I lose all my sales for this

trade, but I'm also about to lose this significant transaction of exchanging an item worth 80 for 30

thousand!

Finally, he dragged Tritus to the side in a fit of panic.

When he saw that Tritus was about to explode, he immediately donned a flattering smile and explained

in a fawning tone, "Mr. Tritus, that painting of Two Swallows in a Spring Pond is a counterfeit. It's just a

painting we bought from a roadside stand for decoration. If you have a grudge against this young man, Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

you might as well let him buy it. After all, with his insight, I'm sure he won't be able to immediately

detect the authenticity of this painting. Moreover, even if he discovers the painting is a counterfeit, it will

be far too late. And since we won't be responsible once the item is sold, it will be hard to tell who is

telling the truth by then."

Tritus understood what Mr. Wadley was getting at after listening to his explanation.

So, he nodded at Mr. Wadley in gratification and praised, "Not bad, Mr. Wadley. I am pleased to know

that The Whimsical Antiquities Emporium is under your care."

After that, Tritus patted Mr. Wadley on the shoulder.

After their private discussion, the two came to Matthew's side again.

As soon as these words escaped Tritus' lips, Mr. Wadley, who was beside him, instantly fell into a state

of shock. And here I thought that my behavior was unethical. I can't believe Mr. Tritus is even more

ruthless than I am. Not only did he triple the price of the two sets of antiques in his enemy's hands, but

he even raised the offer for the painting to 90 thousand as well! This… Is marvelous! As expected from

Mr. Tritus! Updated at Drаmanovels.com

Regardless, neither of them expected Matthew to agree immediately without hesitation. "Deal! 160

thousand it is. I'll pay by card."

Tritus instantly felt that he was too hasty after he saw Matthew agreeing so decisively. Darn it! I think

the offer I made was too low!
