Case 3: The Painting Murder

As Mr. Rendon's eyes scanned the museum, his smile grew wider, his enthusiasm almost infectious. "I'm here to support Greg, of course. I had a feeling he'd make a splash in the art world, and I wanted to see it for myself. Plus, it's been too long since I've had the chance to catch up with you, my son."

I raised an eyebrow, skepticism creeping into my voice. "You managed to come all the way here just for Greg?"

Mr. Rendon chuckled, the sound rich with amusement. "Not just for Greg. The art scene here is as vibrant as ever, and I couldn't miss the chance to see it firsthand. Besides, I wanted to surprise you all. It's been too long since we've had a family get-together, hasn't it?"

I sighed, shaking my head as I gave him a sideways glance. "I doubt that's the whole story."
