Chapter 276 Deliberately Challenging and Testing
When the man walked onto the stage, the crowd realized who he
was.
It turned out that Karen had invited Jonathan Jill, the owner of Gleam Gallery.
Truly, he was a respected expert in the art business. He had been in the gallery business for many years and spent his days in the midst of all kinds of art.
If he didn’t have a keen eye for authenticity, how could he be in this business?
Jonathan took the microphone, shook Karen’s hand and then spoke, “Thank you, Mrs. Long, for inviting me to KLCS Charity Day today.” Jonathan’s charming personality gave off an artistic vibe, which had made him popular among women.
His words hold a lot of weight due to his status and position.
“Last time there was a con man impersonating Mr. Guston at the Gleam Gallery. The police got involved at the time. I flew to the Swaxon Kingdom and did some research to find out who Mr. Guston
was.
“Based on my investigation, I found out the real identity of Mr. Guston in the end… Mr. Guston is indeed Miss Cecelia Linsey… I was very shocked at the time and had the same reaction that you are having right now.
“I have also sought confirmation from the Painting and Art Association and the National Collection of Fine Art of the Swaxon Kingdom, as well as from the police of the Swaxon Kingdom. And they all confirmed that Miss Cecelia is Mr. Guston.
“The photos here are ones I specifically brought back. Among them. are pictures of Miss Cecelia donating paintings for charity in the Swaxon Kingdom, as well as photos of her with the curator of the Painting and Art Association and the National Collection of Fine Art in the Swaxon Kingdom.”
The group photos that Jonathan brought back were the best proof. Her identity was confirmed!
Cecelia Linsey was the legendary Mr. Guston!
All the people present were shocked and looked towards Cecelia.
At this time. Cecelia was invited on stage by Karen.

Maggie Taylor was not very surprised by this result, but her daughter Petunia Taylor was so shocked!
“What? The Avant-garde artist I admire is Cecelia Linsey?! The work I paid such an expensive price to get is actually by Linsey?’
At that moment, Petunia felt it was a big blow right in her face. Just previously, she was still praising how amazing Mr. Guston was, but now, she suddenly felt that Mr. Guston’s works did not have the charm anymore.
She now felt that the truth was even harder to swallow than eating a fly. This feeling was too uncomfortable!
Cecelia stood on the stage, shook hands with Jonathan and Karen, respectively, and then greeted the others in the audience.
“Hello, everyone. I’m Cecelia Linsey. And I’m also Mr. Guston.”
Karen said to the audience, “Does everyone understand now? Does anyone still have any questions? I think all of you should recall how múch Mr. Guston has contributed to global social charity. Who among you can surpa** her?”
All the people present were speechless and had no rebuttal.
It was likely that the contributions of all of them combined would still not surpa** Mr. Guston’s contributions.
What was more, Mr. Guston never did charity for fame. He had always been low-key and didn’t even give inferviews. Perhaps Mr. Guston had done even more contributions than they were aware of. Even though there was evidence brought by Jonathan that could prove Cecelia’s identity, Petunia still didn’t want to believe it.
“Even if you prove that she is ‘Mr. Guston’, I still doubt it. If Cecelia is really Mr. Guston, then let her paint here in public. Let us see if she’s the real Mr. Guston or not? Miss Linsey, if you can do it, then we will believe that you are Mr. Guston!”
Hearing this, Cecelia knew that Petunia was deliberately challenging her and testing her.
Karen asked Cecelia if she could paint on the spot, and Cecelia simply replied, “Yes. Ms. Long, please help me prepare the painting tools!’
“Well, I just happen to have painting tools in my car. I’ll have someone get them.” Then Jonathan immediately instructed his subordinates to fetch the items.

Soon, his b*dyguards brought all the painting tools, including the canvas, onto the stage.
Then, it was time for Cecelia to show her skills!
Jonathan and Karen stepped aside to watch, while Cecelia stood with her back to the audience and began to paint.

Her artwork continued her grand and majestic style. While painting, she was focused, with skilled techniques and précise brushstrokes.
At first, she had multiple colors mixed on the canvas, making it difficult to see what she was painting. The tones on the canvas were somewhat dim, with a sense of desolation.
Petunia sneered. She didn’t think Cecelia could paint something impressive in front of everyone today.
Cecelia painted for almost half an hour. The further she went, the more meticulous and slow her technique for detailing became.
When she finished her painting, she flicked the paintbrush back into the pen holder, precisely.
“Done! Sorry for keeping you all waiting.” Cecelia turned around, wiping her hands with a towel as she spoke.
Everyone was looking at the painting she had just made. To be honest, no one could figure out what she had painted.
Even Jonathan, the expert of artwork, couldn’t understand what message she was trying to convey with her painting today.
“What did she paint?”
“This is considered art? I think I could paint something like this too. And I could do better.”
Whispers could be heard from the audience, and Petunia found it amusing. She thought Cecelia might have run out of her talents. The painting she created today couldn’t be considered an art work all!
Karen didn’t understand what this painting was trying to express either, so she asked, “Miss Cecelia, could you please introduce us to the content and meaning of this artwork?”
Cecelia took the microphone and said, “Today’s inspiration for this creation comes from life. Only by breaking free from the chains of hell can one experience rebirth. That’s why I named this painting Life.”
Then, Cecelia turned to the staff next to her and said, “Can you please bein me rotate the painting?”

The staff member stepped forward and rotated the painting through 180 degrees. As the painting was placed back on the easel, there were gasps from the audience, accompanied by deep breaths, continuously.
“Oh my!”
“Oh G od. How can there be such a big change?”
The audience off the stage stared wide-eyed, unable to believe it. A painting could have such a magical transformation after being turned. upside down.
So, the true content of her painting could only be seen when it was viewed upside down?
Karen was amazed and said, “Oh my. The metaphor in this painting. is so vivid! It’s truly astonishing when viewed this way.”
Jonathan was equally amazed and exclaimed, “Miss Cecelia, I never knew that you could paint in reverse. After the angle is adjusted, this painting is truly unexpected and breathtaking.”
Everyone who was viewing the painting could understand the meaning behind Cecelia’s words just now only by breaking free from the chains of hell can one experience rebirth. Naming this painting Life was truly fitting.
Down the stage, Petunia looked upset. No matter how she tried to set Cecelia obstacles, that woman always managed to get around gracefully. It was really infuriating.
“Since today is KLCS Charity Day, I will donate this painting for auction. All the proceeds will go to charity.”
After Cecelia spoke, there was silence in the room.
Petunia was smugly pleased. Before anyone knew that Mr. Guston was Cecelia, Mr. Guston’s paintings were valuable. But once everyone knew that Mr. Guston was Cecelia, who would buy her paintings?
She finished an impressive painting today. But so what?
