Chapter 1602 When Bryan saw the painting being taken back, he gazed at Lilin in confusion and asked, "Didn't you say you were going to give it to me? Why are you taking it back?" Lilin rolled her eyes and replied annoyedly, "I agreed to give you the painting, but I didn't say you could give it to Sophia." She harbored a very strong resentment toward Sophia and believed that the woman did not deserve to be given that painting.

He could not afford to reveal his true identity as it might make things troublesfor his father. He decided to wait until he could put Corinne in touch with Lilin so she could purchase the painting.
Lilin was eager to hear what ‘Benjamin’ was about to say and urged him," Finish your sentence. Sophia isn't...?” Bryan shook his head and replied, "No, forget about it, Aunt Lilin. You're right. | shouldn't use the painting you gaveto make Mommy happy. | don't want the painting anymore. You should focus on your homework. I'll go back to my Daddy's room." The disappointment on his face was unbearably depressing, so Lilin called out to him, "Hey! Wait..." Bryan turned and asked, "Yes, Aunt Lilin?" Lilin took the painting out of the folder again and handed it to him. "Here.
Take it." Bryan was pleasantly surprised. He took the painting and stared at her in slight confusion. "Are you sure?" "Yes." Lilin nodded and said, "You can have it! Feel free to do whatever you want with it. It's yours now!" Bryan beamed with joy. "Thank you, Aunt Lilin!" Lilin then added, "Ahem! | heard that your father caught Boia. It's probably not a good idea for you to be in the sroom with him. You wouldn't want to get infected!" Bryan did not seem worried at all. He stated confidently, "It'll be fine. I'm a healthy boy, and I have a strong immune system! See you later!" He dashed out of the room with the painting.
Lilin watched 'Benjamin' from behind as he left. The more she observed him, the more he seemed to differ from the Benjamin that she knew. They were like two similar people with vastly different personalities.

I'm going back to see Daddy," he replied sullenly.
Sophia knew that he was not Benjamin, and she had no qualms about losing her patience with him since Zachary was not around. "What are you holding? Show me!" Bryan did not want to show her the painting and immediately hid it behind his back. "It's a painting Aunt Lilin gave to me. | want to show it to Daddy!" Sophia found it strange that Lilin would be kind enough to give her 'son' a painting. She felt that something was off and reached out impatiently, saying, "What painting? Take it out and show it tofirst!" Bryan frowned. "No! | want Daddy to see it first!"
