Chapter 445 Flames "Go on then, hit me! If you do, I won't let you see the true nature of this painting," Daniel taunted Madison, clearly holding sleverage.
"Smack!" How could Madison tolerate such a threat? She slapped Daniel across the face right away. But she held back, making it a light tap rather than a full-force blow.

Madison leaned close to Daniel's ear and added in a whisper, "Behave, or you'll get more than a slap!" That left Daniel puzzled, "More than a slap? Where?" "I'll flick that certain place," Madison replied with a sly grin. As she spoke, her eyes darted downwards involuntarily, and her mind conjured up simagery. She wondered what that private area of his might look like and what his reaction would be if she flicked it. Could it be delightful to see how a little flick makes this country boy howl? "Pervert!" Daniel returned Madison's jest.
Their whispered exchange, although inaudible to Smart, was enough for him to sense the flirtation based on their expressive interaction, which sparked an instant surge of jealousy.
"Country boy, stop trying to distract us with your antics. You've got the vodka and the lighter now, so get on with your proof. Prove that this worthless print is a ten-billion-dollar original by Piet Mondrian," Smart demanded.
"Didn't expect to see you in such a hurry, Smart. Are you so eager to kneel and callgrandpa? Since you're so impatient, I'll start my demonstration." Daniel handed the painting to Madison, "Hold this for me, will you?" Madison held the painting while Daniel unscrewed the vodka bottle and poured its contents all over the canvas. "You're pouring three thousand dollars' worth of vodka on worthless print? You really are a fool, aren't you? Such a waste when you could have enjoyed drinking it—what a shame!" Smart mocked Daniel without understanding his intent.
Daniel ignored Smart and turned to Madison, "Make sure you hold it steady now! Don't let go no matter what." While he spoke, he took out the lighter. Seeing this, Madison immediately becalarmed. "What are you planning to do, country boy?" "What else? I'm going to light it, of course! A real painting won't fear the flame. I'm going to set this painting on fire, and after it burns, the truth will be revealed." "What did you say? Set it on fire? Are you trying to burnalive, country boy?" "Oh! Madison, you won't get hurt." "You... I ought to kick you to death!" In her irritation, Madison gave Daniel a light kick with her high heel. Still, 'The Red Cloud' remained in her hands; she didn't throw it away.
"Madison, you need to trust me. If I asked you to hold onto it, then I can guarantee one hundred percent that after it's lit, the fire won't touch you." Chapter 445 Flames "Go on then, hit me!
