Chapter 73
The girls in the class surrounded Sandra. One of them asked curiously and enviously, “What did Philip say to you? My father likes Philip’s paintings the most. He even spent a lot of money to buy one last year
Another girl exclaimed, Tm so envious of you to have a chance to be Philip’s student.”
Someone chimed in. “That’s right. If I can get some pointers from Philip for my painting, I’ll be so happy!”
Philip Fremont, who had come to the school in search of suitable students, was an internationally renowned oil painting
expert. He was also the leader of the selection team for the international competition. He was highly respected.
Sandra had performed brilliantly in the preliminaries the day before yesterday. Philip had his eye on her, and he was even willing to personally guide her paintings.
Sandra smiled and said humbly. “I was just lucky”
Despite her words, she appeared smug.
Sandra was slightly stunned when she saw that Tiffany’s seat, which was vacant last week, was occupied again. She suppressed her anger and approached Tiffany with a smile. Sandra asked with concern, “Tiffany, you’re back? Were you okay these few days?”
Tiffany was somewhat impressed by Sandra.
No matter how much Sandra fell out with her in private, the former would always pretend to be on good terms with her in front of others. Sandra would speak with her as if the grudges between them did not exist.
The corners of Tiffany’s mouth twitched. She responded dryly. I was doing fine.
Sandra said, “That’s good. It’s a pity that you were suspended for a week. If you weren’t, you would most likely have been able to join the preliminaries. Unfortunately, it’s too late now.”
Sandra shook her head after saying that, as if she really felt sorry for Tiffany.
During the preliminaries, Frank announced in public that all students who were absent and could not participate would automatically be considered as having forfeited and were eliminated. They would not be allowed to participate in the subsequent rounds of this international competition.
Therefore, Sandra was practically showing off to Tiffany instead of actually expressing her pity for Tiffany,
A few girls at the side sneered. One of them said, “What’s there to pity? Do you expect eye candy to actually be able to paint? She might frighten Philip with her terrible painting.”
After the girl said that, many people laughed out loud.
As everyone knew, Tiffany was a typical eye candy. She was proficient in nothing, and her only interest was in men.
No one had seen Tiffany demonstrating her talent in any aspect.
Even Sandra did not know about Tiffany’s various talents.
Sandra was brought into the Kelley family two years ago. Tiffany had been completely focused on Kenneth then. Other than doing all she could to make Kenneth happy. Tiffany did not do anything else and hence, she had never demonstrated her talent in painting.
Later on, Tiffany casually drew a painting and Sandra saw it. Sandra then blinded Tiffany with all kinds of flattery to make the latter give the painting to her.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
That was the most significant turning point for the two of them,
In Tiffany’s previous life, Sandra won the international competition and was crowned a painting genius. She became the student of a renowned oil painting maestro and her career in painting soared.
As for Tiffany, in the end, she took the blame for Kenneth’s sweetheart and went to jail. She then spent five dark and desolate years in jail.
Thinking about the past, Tiffany lowered her eyes slightly and restrained the killing intent in them.
When Zoe heard others mocking Tiffany, she stood up and said, “Sandra, you’re so smug now even before Philip accepts. you as his student. If he really look you in, you would lose touch with reality.”
One of Sandra’s admirers retorted, “That’s still better than you guys, who aren’t even qualified to join the competition!”
Furious, Zoe argued. “You-”
Tiffany interrupted her and pulled her back to her seat. “Sit down.”
Zoe sat down indignantly.
Tiffany tilted her head and looked at the five Sandra’s admirers in front of her. She said calmly, “You should stop provoking me while I’m still faking a smile.”
She was threatening the girls to behave.
Just because she had been absent for a week, it didn’t mean that her temper had gotten any better.
Tiffany was not interested in arguing with these girls. However, they would taste her wrath if they continued being jerks.
The girls were stunned.
They thought, That’s right. Tiffany was someone who dared to hit Mia, the daughter of a real estate tycoon. We’re practically courting death now to mock he head-on.”
They quickly gave up and returned to their respective seats.
Before the class started, Zoe asked in a low voice, “Tiffany, why don’t we go to Philip and plead for a second chance? The school should at least give you a chance to try.”
Tiffany replied, “That won’t be necessary.”
She then raised her eyebrows and asked in amusement. “You really have blind faith in me, don’t you? What if I talented in painting? We would be slapping ourselves in the face by asking for a chance.”
Zoe understood Tiffany’s concern and replied, “You’re right
From Zoe’s point of view, Tiffany seemed to be omnipotent.
am not
Therefore, she was indignant and felt that Tiffany had missed a golden opportunity due to her suspension. Zoe wanted to make up for Tiffany’s loss, but she forgot the most important thing.
If Tiffany was not talented in oil painting, then asking her to join the preliminaries was meaningless.
Zoe quickly changed her stance and comforted Tiffany, saying, “Forget about this competition. We’re not joining”
Tiffany smiled and did not say anything in response to Zoe’s words.
In the afternoon, most of the art major students went to the studio. The studio was packed because Philip would take some time to look at the students’ works and give pointers on their flaws and shortcomings.
This was definitely a once in a lifetime opportunity!
Sandra arrived at the studio very early and occupied the best seat, waiting expectantly for Philip to come over.
Meanwhile, Philip and the other nine maestros were heading towards the art studio.
On the way. Philip chuckled and said, “This trip to Lovell City is rather fruitful. Although the girl I discovered yesterday still has many flaws in her painting, she’s young and talented. Given the right guidance, she will surely become the next oil painting genius.”
One of the maestros asked, “Is the girl called Sandra?”
Philip replied. That’s right.”
Another maestro said. “She’s indeed pretty good. She looks obedient and Sensible. Her paintings are also novel. She’s talented.
From this conversation, the maestros had pretty much decided that they would take Sandra as their student.
A gust of wind blew past. A piece of paper fluttered in the wind and landed on the grass by Philip’s feet.
Out of curiosity, Philip picked it up and looked at it. His eyes widened in surprise, and he could not hide his excitement.
The landscape of a river was painted on the paper.
A lone boat was floating on the river. The surroundings appeared ethereal.
The surrounding green mountains were shrouded in clouds and mist, making them indistinct. On the lone boat, a tiny figure was lying at the bow with a bottle of alcohol beside him.
The leisurely posture of the man in the painting and the artistic conception embellished by the entire painting instantly reminded viewers of the freedom and solitude everyone yearned for.
Philip’s hands were trembling as he held the painting. He looked around and exclaimed excitedly. “Who drew this painting? The artistic conception is ingenious! It’s simple, but allows ample room for imagination. This piece is truly impressive!”
The other maestros also surrounded him and praised the painting
At their age, they were experienced and had seen countless masterpieces. However, they rarely encountered such talent among the younger generation in schools.
However, there was no one around. One of them suggested, “Could the painting be from the studio?”
When Philip heard this, he felt that it made sense. He said, “You might be right. Let’s go and take a look.”
They quickened their pace and headed towards the building that was just nearby.
Meanwhile, Tiffany was lying on the grass not far away, basking in the sun.
Under the sunlight, her face was flawless.
From afar, she looked like she emerged from a painting. Up close, she was breathtakingly beautiful.
Zor was amazed. Even as a woman herself, she was stunned by Tiffany’s beauty.
Tiffany was taking a nap. When she heard footsteps, she could not be bothered to open her eyes. She merely asked, “Is it dune?”
Zoe answered, “It’s done. Just as you expected, Philip and the other maestros admired that painting very much! Tiffany, you’re so talented!”
The landscape painting that Philip picked up just now was drawn by Tiffany in the afternoon. Then, Tiffany instructed Zoe to deliver the painting to the maestros through the wind.
Zoe did not understand Tiffany’s intention of doing so. She asked, “Tiffany, why don’t you show yourself? Philip admires your painting so much. He will definitely take you in as a student!”
