A Relentless Pursuit for Love

Chapter 721

Chapter 721 This was another shocking piece of news for Sage to find out that the artist actually needed five years to co mplete the painting. It was no wonder that the painting gave an impression of time passing as if many c enturies had passed. However, the artist was just 15 years old when he completed the painting. That m eant that he was just a teenager.

“What‘s his name? Where is he? Is he still painting?” Sage asked. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

The act of imitating was different from creating one‘s own art. It was not a glamorous occupation and m ost people could never understand the reason behind it. Most imitation artists preferred to stay low– key and often did not like to disclose their names and occupation to other people.

Nevertheless, it did not stop Sage from being curious and eager to want to know this teenager that was able to imitate such a legendary piece of art.

“Sage, are you surprised?”

“Sage, please talk to me.” “Sage, it‘s all my fault. Could you please forgive me?”

Wayne replied, “That was after. When he painted this painting, he had not served in the army yet. Or he art teacher was actually an elite in imitation art that no one else knew about. He saw the talent in Jace and secretly taught him. No one else other than Simon and Mend went missing all of a sudden. Till this day, he hasn‘t been found. This painting, The Starry Night, Jace co to the army. First of all, it was for his safety, and secondly, it was to prevent those people from wanting to also when he gave up on imitating, and forgery.
