Chapter 322 Burn All Of The Paintings
"I''m sorry. Trina''s just like that. I hope you won''t hold grudges on her," said Noah.
"Don''t be, Noah. She''s right. I am indeed a nobody and I don''t deserve you.
I am very different from Trina who''s a famous award-winning painter," Ca replied as she pushed
Noah''s hand away.
She then silently walked to the showcase where Trina''s certificates and trophies were disyed.

Seeing Ca walking to her showcase, Trina immediately handed the cleaning kit to the staff and
walked towards the showcase too. She was worried about trophies.
Those trophies were fragile and extremely valuable. It would definitely break her heart if any of them
got broken.
Trina was in the middle of her thought when she saw that Ca was about to reach one of her trophies.
Worse, it was the one that valued the most, the Orchid Prize trophy!
Having this award was a big deal within the artists'' circle. It was a great honor.
Ca could easily reach the trophy since it wasn''t kept in a ss box. She couldn''t help being
fascinated with it since she had also heard about its high value. It was a luck to finally see the
prestigious Orchid Prize in person.
"Noah, please tell your fiancee to take her hand away from my things. She can''t touch that trophy!"
shouted Trina.
The Orchid Prize was kept on the higher rack of the shelf for the longest time and nobody had dared to
touch it before. Thus, Trina never thought about putting it inside a protective case.
Most people who visited her gallery were rich and well-mannered.
However, Ca was an anomaly and never had Trina expected for a vulgar like Ca toy a finger on
her precious Orchid Prize.
Holding the heavy trophy in her hand, Ca scrutinized every detail of it. She had to admit that the
Orchid Prize was indeed a very nice trophy. But then, why did a petty and arrogant person like Trina
receive it?
"Ca, hand me the trophy."
Noah walked over and reached out his hand. "This trophy is important to Trina. Let''s put it back."
Disappointment flooded Ca''s face as she turned to Noah. "So you think I''m not qualified to even
touch the trophy too?"
"No, that''s not what I mean. You can do whatever you like to it if it is mine. However, it belongs to
someone else. You can''t..."
"That''s right. You''re not qualified to touch it," Tina interrupted even before Noah finished his words.
She shot Ca with a disdainful stare then walked towards the two. She then reached for the trophy
while hissing, "The Orchid Prize is for the best artists. Of course, you''re not qualified.
I guess you can''t even afford to pay for it in case it breaks. Put it back immediately."
Casually, Ca just shrugged her shoulders and said, "Okay."
She handed the trophy to Trina. However, it slipped through Trina''s hold and fell to the floor with a loud
crash! Although the floor wasyered with a thinyer of red carpet, it didn''t help much.
The trophy hit the floor and was instantly broken into two pieces.
"Oh my God! I thought you mentioned it is valuable. Why didn''t you catch it?"
Ca looked at the broken trophy with her eyes wide open and then looked at Trina, ming her.
On the other hand, Trina was so angry that she couldn''t even utter a word. She stepped backward
dizzily and almost fainted.
"Are you all right, Trina?" Noah quickly grabbed her arm and apologized, "I''m sorry. It''s my fault. I''ll
have the trophy fixed as soon as possible."
Trina was ring at Ca as she patted her chest. She was trying her best to calm herself down. "Such
a vulgar woman! Just because Noah takes you back, it doesn''t mean you can do everything you want!
I don''t understand why Noah wants to be engaged to you! You are nothing but a low dog!
Get out! I don''t want to see you in my gallery, ever again! You don''t deserve to step here!"
Noah furrowed and exhaled a deep breath. He walked to Ca and whispered, "Ca, apologize to
Trina. Say you didn''t mean it."
"Why should I? I mean what I did. I broke the trophy deliberately."
Ca blinked and told him the truth.
"Ca!" Noah whispered in utter surprise. He grabbed both of her hands and said, "Don''t be childish.
Trina has influences in the artists'' circle. Listen to me, okay? Apologize to her and I''ll fix the trophy."
"Didn''t you hear that she repeatedly belittled me? Why aren''t you mad at her at all?" Ca looked up at
him indignantly.
She was his fiancee. Wasn''t he supposed to defend her against a bully like Trina?
"Ca..."
"Noah, I broke the trophy intentionally. She deserves that.
If you insist that I should apologize to her, she should apologize to me first."
Ca cut him off, not giving him any chance to exin further.
Those words made Noah furrow his eyebrows. He looked at Trina who was sorrowfully holding the
broken trophy, then turned to Ca. "It''s my fault, okay? I shouldn''t have brought you here, Ca.
Listen to me, apologize to her now. I''ll make it up to youter. I''ll let you do whatever you want..."
Ca shook her head andughed upon hearing Noah. She was stone cold when she pushed him
away and walked to Trina with her cane.
"Trina, I am really sorry for identally breaking your trophy.
I know it is priceless. Please forgive me for the sake of Noah and I''llpensate for it. You just name a
price."
She would never say something like that before.
Nheless, since she was back to the Hua family, why not make use of their wealth for such cases,
right?
As someone who was so much taller than Ca, Trina stood up and looked down at Ca disgustingly.
How dare this midget confront her?
"All right! You said that! But don''t use your fiance''s money.
Although the Orchid Prize is indeed priceless, I won''t ask for too much for Noah''s sake. Give me a
million. Consider this case settled once you pay me that."
Ca raised one of her eyebrows and nodded. She then looked around the gallery, giving all the
paintings there an interested once-over. Finally, her eyes settled on the showcase.
"Okay. Then you might as well do the math and tell me how much all of them cost. Give me a number."
Ca didn''t say more after those.
Since Trina had named a price, then it was a deal.
She walked to the showcase and then took her cane up.
Smashing all those trophies one by one would be troublesome. Thus, she nned to hit the ss
showcase from the bottom.
She was ready to hurl her cane against the ss when Noah grabbed her hand angrily.
"Enough, Ca! Don''t go too far."
Forcefully, he pulled her out of that ce.
Since they walked out in a hurry, Ca''s injured leg sprained again. It hurt so much that she hummed in
pain.
When they finally walked out of the gallery, Noah turned to check on her. Beads of sweat were rolling
down from Ca''s forehead.
He was so angry back then that he forgot about her injured leg and just pulled her out.
"Ca, what''s wrong?"
At this time, Ca was hurting so much that she couldn''t even speak. She bit her lips hard and just
silently bore the pain.
She was waiting for Noah to find out himself.
"Noah, Take me to the hospital. My leg hurts,"
She finally muttered after a couple of seconds. She couldn''t take it anymore as the stinging in her leg
got unbearable.
Seeing her pale face rmed him, Noah instantly forgot about the incident inside the gallery and took
Ca to the car.
Just when they left, a Bentley pulled over before the gallery.
"Mr. Terence, Miss Ca didn''t seem well,"
informed Rainer as he watched Noah''s car leaving. Terence, who was sitting at the back, furrowed his
eyebrows and put his crossed legs down.
He started to watch the video sent to hisptop.
Soon, his eyes darkened. He stroked his chin and pulled off one earphone. He ordered, "Buy all the
paintings in the gallery, Rainer. And burn them all in public."
The videotape was sent by one of his informants whom he asked to follow Ca.
"By the way, there''s a showcase in the south of the gallery. Break all the trophies inside. Make sure to
break every single one."
Surprised, Rainer was speechless for a while. "But, they don''t sell the trophies. How can I..."
"Use your brains! Let Nathan teach you!"
said Terence, with a deep voice.
Nathan didn''t say anything but opened the door of the car. He got off and headed into the
gallery.
