Selma Payne's POV:
"In fact, I have thought of buying it." I didn't deny it. This was exactly what I needed. "The market price of artworks is always fluctuating. I'll get someone to appraise them and quote you a reasonable price."
Emma waved her hand nonchalantly. "Don't say that. I don't paint for money. It's just a hobby to pass the time. Urgh, that sounds like a real joke."
She shuddered and continued, "Anyway, I said I'll give it to you. Just treat it as me bribing our new queen in advance. When I hold another art exhibition in the future, I'll announce to the audience that even the Queen's collection room has my paintings. Wouldn't followers surge over like floodwater then? So just accept it as a gift."
Emma winked playfully, waved at her friend who was calling her from afar and left.
