Landon refused to pay attention to her and dooged her move, causing her to almost lose
her balance.
How humiliatirs
Some quests were quietly laughing at her. Overcome with embarrassment, she silently
cursed them out.
Before long, a maid brought in the Victorian–era vase by Betty. Newton beamed and
nodded. “Great! Thank you, Betty!”
Betty couldn’t help but gloat.
“This is Ms. Lauren’s gift for you. Do check it out.” Ben brought out a painting.
“On is that from Lauren? Show me!”
Newton looked surprised by the painting before laughing merrily. “Hahaha! Is this her
portrait of me? Splendid! Such a talented girl!”
Everyone crowded around Newton to check out the painting that made him laugh. Within

Lauren had painted a portrait of Newton laughing out loud in his usual outfit. She paid
great attention to the details. Additionally, she scribbled a message at the bottom of the
painting. It read, “Dear Grandpa, smile always. From Lauren.”
“Look at Lauren’s painting. Does it resemble me? She’s talented in art!” Newton proudly
showed off Lauren.

“Grandpa, Lauren is talented in art. It’s always been her wish to enroll in an art college to
study the subject.” Alyssa grabbed the opportunity to speak on behalf of Lauren.
She continued, “She must have great potential if Jasper compliments her–you know he
rarely sings praises. She should give it a try. I bet we will have a famous artist in the family
in five years.”
Jasper frowned at her words, which felt like a swipe at him. Did he never compliment the
others? He wondered if he was as harsh as she made him sound.
