ba had changed, morphed into soterone she no longer recognized His vindictiveness and underhanded tactics were
now identical to those of Maurice
Sushanty Hury of snow began to fall outside the window blanketing the streets in white
The Christmas hights from last month were still hanging their glow intermingling with the snowfall, a lingering
reminder of the festive season.
The door was playing “Jingle Hells” overhead, as if everyone was in a celebratory mood, everyone but her. She sat
dazed for a long time before hastily paying and piting the del
Marguerite’s cut was parked in the underground lot of the Thunderbolt Building She had to first return to the
building before driving back to her mansion.

Upon seeing Marguente return, Nadine quickly made her a hot cup of tea, “Ma’am, the young master won’t be
coming home tonight. He’s working late”
Maurice rarely worked late Ever since Frederick left, he had been fearless for three whole years. Now, with
Frederick’s powerful return and his company’s growing Succes, Maunce naturally felt threatened
His absence was a welcome respite for Marguente
Marguerite sipped her tea and nodded, “Alright, you can rest now”
Before leaving, Nadine handed Marguente a tube of itch relief ointment, “Ma’am, Teresa said her foot was itchy this
morning I think it’s her birthmark acting up again She didn’t let me in, so would you mind taking this to her?”
Teresa had a red birthmark on the sole of her foot. It was small, but slightly raised.
When Teresa was bom, the birthmark was just a red mole, so Marguerite hadn’t paid it muchumind But as time
passed, the mole grew bigger. Marguerite mmediately took Teresa to the hospital, and the doctors concluded that it
wasn’t a natural birthmark, it was due to the father’s excessive smoking during conception the toxins in his body
had affected the child, resulting in the birthmark.
This revelation had troubled Marguerite for a long time since Maurice never smoked.
She had even doubted whether Teresa was Maurice’s child! But, she had only ever been with one man, and that
was Maurice. Perhaps he had been a heavy smoker in the past and quit later on? This was the only explanation
Marguerite could think of
Meanwhile, in Teresa’s bedroom
The room was littered with Teresa’s sketches, some were taped to the walls, some scattered on the floor
The room was imbued with a sense of artistic disarray.
At that moment, Teresa was funously sketching a portrait on her easel. The top left corner of the easel had a
blurred surveillance photo taped to it. A man’s figure could be vaguely seen in the photo, but his face was
indistinguishable.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJust then, Miley’s voice message came through. Teresa pressed play and heard Miley’s anxious voice, “Teresa! Have
you finished the portrait I asked for? This surveillance footage is quite blurry, can you work with it?”
Teresa tossed her pencil down in frustration, her babyish voice tinged with impatience. I’m working on it! I can
recreate any face, no matter how blurry! Stop rushing me, I finish soon!
Teresa was spoiled growing up and aside from play, nothing else interested her But half a year ago, she watched a
TV show called “The Sketch Artist” and thought that being an artist was really cool! The protagonist could recreate
a person’s face based on the vague figures from surveillance footage, by observing the muscle
movements and bone structure.
Teresa was intrigued and decided to delve into the world of sketch artistry, finding many online courses to teach
herself. She was smart and incredibly talented. Not only did she leam how to recreate faces from surveillance
footage, but she could also accurately depict the aging process in her sketches
Most importantly, she could deduce the parents‘ appearances based on a child’s facial features!
And she was always spot on, never once making a mistake.
