I’m Someone Else

Chapter 52

“This is not a treasure from Droycore. It should be from the west. It’s a crown from the west!”

Hearing that, Rose was stunned, as what Thomas said was true. When her father brought the itemback, he said the same thing too. Thomas had said the exact same thing as her father again.

It seems like… this person really is something! No, I can’t jump to conclusions! I need to test him a bitmore.

“How much do you think it is worth?”

“How much did your father buy it?” Thomas asked.

“50 million Droyler.”

When he heard that, he just shook his head without saying anything, confusing Rose. “What do youmean? Are you saying that this crown is not worth this price?”

“That’s not it. What I’m saying is that this is priceless!”

He was pretty sure that it was the crown of Bavaria’s first king. Since ancient times, the crown hadalways been the symbol of the royals. Also, the number of crowns that were passed down wasextremely rare. According to what he knew, there were only seven of them left now. It was out of hisexpectations that Rose’s father had such great luck in getting his hand on the crown of Bavaria’s firstking by mistake. If the Germans knew about this, they would definitely rage!

At this moment, Rose was completely shocked as Thomas actually… guessed the price exactly thesame as her father. If the first time was a coincidence and the second time was just pure luck, whatabout the third time? This showed his actual ability.

Of course she knew that the crown was from the west. She was just trying to mislead him on purposewhen she said that this was Droycore’s treasure. She didn’t expect him to see through this crown atfirst glance. This person is definitely somebody. I must pull strings with him!

Meanwhile, Thomas stared at the crown and exclaimed, “This crown is probably the best item in thisroom.”

Indeed, Rose’s father said that he wanted to put a key highlight of his collections in his own shop. Thatwas why the crown was placed here.

All of a sudden, an idea came up in his mind. He was going to attend Old Mr. Morton’s birthday dinnertonight, and it wouldn’t be nice to go there empty-handed. He needed to give him a good present, but itmight be difficult to replace anything good from the antique market now. Since there were many calligraphypaintings there, why not buy one from here and give it to Old Mr. Morton. Sean had told him before thatthere were two favorite things in his grandfather’s life. The first one was alcohol, and the other waspainting!

“Can you sell one of the paintings here to me?” he looked at Rose and asked.

“You want a painting?” Rose was puzzled. There were many special items here, but the most unworthyones were the paintings hanging on the wall. Actually, she had already made up her mind to pull stringswith him and was thinking about which item to give him as a present. It was out of her expectation thathe would say that he wanted a painting himself.

With a smile, she said, “Choose any painting you want. I can give it to you.”

“You don’t have to do that!” Thomas waved his hand hastily. How can I simply accept other people’sthings without any reason? Also, this is the first time I have met Rose. Why is she suddenly giving methings? She definitely has some ulterior motives.

“Just take it. I have the right to make small decisions like this. The items here are just a part of thecollection. Most of the really good ones are at my house.”

However, Thomas still shook his head. He knew that she meant kind, but taking other people’s thingsfor free was not really good.

At this moment, Rose pretended to be angry and said, “Why? Do you think that the things here are notworthy?”

“Umm… I’ll pay…” He could never take it for free, so he wanted to pay.

“No need! I said to give it to you. The worth of everything here is nothing compared to knowing you, letalone a painting!”

Rose believed in her view of him. For a knowledgeable person like Thomas, even if he was not from abig family, his background would definitely be extraordinary. He could be an important person in thefuture for sure. Using a painting worth a few hundred thousand or even a million to woo him woulddefinitely be a smart investment!

Hearing that, Thomas was speechless. What is all this? I’ve heard of people dying to buy and dying tosell, but this is the first time I see someone dying to give! Never mind. She’s a lady, after all. If Icontinue to reject her, I’m the one who’ll look pretentious.

“I’ll take this then.” He chose an ink painting that was worth around a million. After he kept the painting,he told Rose, “Come and look for me if you encounter any trouble in the future. I can help you with it.”

He wasn’t bluffing. If the one who was the best at fighting was the boss, he was confident that hedefinitely had the right to speak. As for appraising antiques, he was good at it for sure. Men should bethis confident!

When he was young, that crazy old man taught him a lot about these strange things. At that time, hethought that these were all useless skills. However, looking back, he was too young and naive.

This was what Rose was waiting for. Her family was among the greatest families in Irieson, so no onedared to touch her. However, this was not the case in appraising antiques. She didn’t mean that herfather’s skills were below Thomas, but one would eventually get burned if he played with fire. She wasjust afraid that her father would have times when he would be barking up the wrong tree. Collectingantiques was just about taste and knowledge. If he barked up the wrong tree for once, he might causethe family to go into bankruptcy. If that happened, Thomas might be able to help.

“Okay.” Rose nodded with a smile and exchanged contact numbers with Thomas.

At this moment, the herbs had arrived as well. After she packed all the herbs for him, he sent him to thedoor in person.

Even after the BMW Z4 disappeared, she was still looking in the direction in which he left. There was anonchalant smile on her face, but no one knew what was on her mind.

Meanwhile, Thomas didn’t return to the Pearson Group, but went back to his rented house. He neededto cook the herbs and let Olivia take the medicine.

After being busy here and there, he didn’t even have time to have lunch. When the clock hit four, onlythen did he appear in the Pearson Group again.

Looking at Thomas walking into her room, the disgruntled Olivia said, “You still remember to comeback? You’ve been away from the office for the whole day!”

She felt a little strange inside when she didn’t see him for the whole day, as though there wassomething missing inside her. In fact, she wanted to call him a few times throughout the day and

rushed him to come back, but after thinking for a moment, she was afraid that he would think that shemeant other things, so she gave up in the end.

However, Thomas didn’t care about her sarcastic words. He handed the thermos flask in his hand toher. “I just bought this thermos flask. I’ve already sanitized it, and there’s the medicine that I made justnow inside. Drink it. It’s good for your health.”

“Oh! You…” Only then did Oliva understand everything. He was away for such a long time to make thismedicine for me? At this moment, she felt a warmth rising from the bottom of her heart.

Without having any doubts, she took the thermos flask and took a little sip to test the temperature. Thetemperature was just right, so she lifted her head and drank everything in one shot.

She had her 100 percent trust in Thomas. Just like what her father said, if he really wanted to harm her,no one could probably stop him, so he didn’t need to go through so much trouble to poison her.
