PopularNovelChapter 1168 On the day of the art exhibit, as soon as the host made the announcement, fans rushed into the gallery. "What's going on? There's not a single painting here! What kind of exhibit is this? We want a refund!" "Refund! Refund immediately!" The demands grew louder, and soon everyone was calling for their money back.
The host was stunned, and so was Yvonne.

The investors arrived after hearing the commotion. Seeing the crowd gathered at the entrance, one of them went inside to investigate, convinced there must be a misunderstanding. But after walking through the exhibit, he confirmed that there wasn't a single painting on display.
Angry, the investor snapped, "I don't care what happened, but this is the height of unprofessionalism. You can expect a lawsuit to cover my losses."
