Chapter 6 Chapter 6 Congratulations!

After settling down at the Sapphire Gardens, Eliana went to work at Appiation the next day.

This time she went back to Abrana, her uncle, Archie Holden, helped her with all his strength and directly appointed her to take over the CEO of Appiation Auction House's Braidvale Branch.

Standing beside the floor-to-ceiling glass window in the Appiation CEO's office, she stared in a daze at the Joydream Art Museum on Lavender Row in the distance.

She remembered her mother saying that what she once wanted most was to run a small gallery with Bryce, paint and hold exhibitions, and live a lively and quiet life.

But when Eliana was one year old, Bryce suddenly upgraded the small gallery to an art museum.

After more than ten years of operation, Bryce was now one of the top art dealers in Braidvale.

"This is not what my mom wants at all."

Eliana muttered, clenching her fist, her fair fingers turning red.

Just as Eliana was thinking, Sandra pushed the door open and came in. Looking at her lonely face, Sandra reached out and stuffed a chocolate into her mouth.

"Eliana, I have good news for you." Sandra said with a mysterious face.

"What's that? Has Aron found something?"

"Why did you guess it right so soon?"

Sandra continued with a big smile, "Tomorrow is Camila and Lenard's engagement party. You know, a wonderful drama is unfolding!"

"Okay. Do it well."

When Eliana and Sandra were talking, Levi Jensen, the assistant, came in, looking embarrassed.

"Miss Webster, there are quite a few people outside who want to see you. One of them claims to be your father..."

"Bryce?"

Sandra blurted out and exchanged glances with Eliana, both looking surprised.

With a cup of coffee in her hands, Eliana didn't say anything.

The steam from the coffee cup came to her face, and her expression was unreadable.

Sandra said with a smirk, "He came so quickly. On your first day at work, he came to recognize his daughter."

"I'll see him."

Eliana put down the cup and said to Levi, "Please bring him in."

When Bryce came in, he saw Eliana sitting in the wide president's chair at a glance.

With a decent professional attire and a pretty face, she looked quite stunning.

Especially, her bright eyes were even more attractive.

Bryce's mind went blank for a while.

His daughter looked more and more like the dead woman.

Especially these eyes, which were as clean as the purest diamonds, as if they could illuminate all the dirt in the world and see through everything.

He calmed himself down and put up a smile.

"Oh Eliana! You're really Eliana, my dear daughter. I thought it was..."

"What was it? Was it an impostor?"

Eliana stood up and smiled at Bryce.

"Dad, did you really think I was dead?"

Bryce's face darkened, and his lips trembled.

"Eliana, I had no choice but to do so back then. You must understand me!"

"Understand you?"

Eliana sneered, "Am I not considerate enough? Don't I be considerate of you by not coming back all these years and being slandered by your wonderful daughter Camila?"

"Eliana."

Bryce was rendered speechless.

He didn't expect that his submissive daughter back then was now like a sword.

Every word of her hit accurately and ruthlessly on his heart.

"Eliana, today is the first time we have met. Can we not talk about the past now?"

Bryce evaded Eliana's gaze and said, "Now that you are the CEO of Appiation, I have to count on you in the future."

Looking at Bryce's cowardly look, Eliana suddenly had a strong feeling.

Was this man really her father?

Was he really the man who made her mother insist on marrying him even if she had to break with her parents?

Disappointment surged in her heart, and she suddenly felt bored.

"Eliana, tomorrow is your sister's engagement party. I hope you can attend as the CEO of Appiation."

"Ha-ha, it's too unfortunate. I don't have time."

Eliana smiled coldly. "Yet I will send the gift on time. Congratulations on her marriage to her Mr. Right!"

Looking at Bryce's stunned face and thinking about the gift that was about to shock the whole Braidvale, Eliana only felt a kind of pleasure.

She believed the Webster family would be very happy with this gift.

"Eliana... You..."

Bryce opened his mouth wide and couldn't say a word for a long time.

Originally, he wanted to use Camila's engagement to the heir of Tulip Media, and let Eliana show up to keep up appearances.

After all, most of the people who dealt with Bryce were art dealers or players in this circle.

For them, the four seasons auction determined 99% of their annual income. If they could deal with Appiation, the largest auction house in the world, the result would be self-evident.

But he didn't expect Eliana to refuse so cleanly.

She was like a completely different person.
