Chapter 140

Shirley held her chin up smugly and glanced at Janet in a disdainful manner as she answered, “Of

course. Otherwise, do you think they are all here to see a country bumpkin painted?”Chloe too stared

at Janet contemptuously after listening to Shirley.She had heard from her mother how shabby Janet

looked before. Today, it was her first time meeting Janet in person and she realized that her mother’s

description of her was accurate. Seeing how badly dressed Janet was, Chloe was confident that she

looked way better than her.Janet’s eyes turned menacing the moment she heard Shirley’s comment. In

a level voice, she told Jade, “I need to use the bathroom.”Shirley snorted icily and pointed at Janet as

she taunted, “Look at her. That country bumpkin must have wet her pants because of how grand this

event is.”Chloe chuckled in response to her mother’s remark.Without anyone of them realizing, those

bunch of big shots vanished from the ballroom at the same time together with Janet.They gathered at a Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

corner of a corridor where Janet glowered at them and confronted, “Why are you guys here?”Lee

curled his lips upward into a smile and said, “I heard that you’re going to showcase your skill today. So,

of course I have to be here to admire the work of ‘Master Nato’ who has not produced any new artwork

for a very long time.”Janet couldn’t come up with anything to say.Shortly after that, Lara too said with a

smile, “I’m here to make you look like a popular star.” Then, she pointed at the group of underlings she

brought with her.Janet was left speechless. When Lee and Lara walked away, she bumped into

Henry.“Why are you here too?” Janet squinted her eyes and looked at him indifferently. After gazing at

him for several seconds, she moved her eyes away.Henry chuckled, “How can I be absent at the

painting competition in which one of the contestants is my future sister-in-law?”Janet held her chin up

and shot him a supercilious glance before she cursed under her breath, “Stop talking crap!”Henry

shrugged before pointing at someone standing behind her. “Janet, look who’s here.”She turned around

and saw Mason flashing her a faint smile and giving her a penetrating stare.She was not at all

surprised to see him there.“I’m going back to the ballroom,” Janet spoke nonchalantly before tucking

her hands in her pockets and made her way toward the ballroom. “Young Master Mason, let’s go inside

too,” Henry invited.Mason nodded at him and followed behind Janet.While they were making their way

toward the ballroom, their tall and muscular bodies in suits left all the guests captivated.“My goodness,

so many big shots are here for Old Mr. Collins.”“Hey, look at that man walking beside Young Master

Moss. Is he Mr. Lowry?”“Mason Lowry? Seriously? Why is he here?”“Gosh, all of them are so good

looking! Are they here for Old Mr. Collins or the Jacksons?”“Are the Jacksons on such good terms with

those big shots including Mr. Lowry?”While the guests were absorbed in heated discussions, the

painting competition was about to begin.Old Mr. Collins stood on the stage and declared, “Ladies and

gentlemen, the painting competition will begin in no time. While the contest is ongoing later, I hope

everyone can maintain a silent environment to avoid disturbing the contestants while they are painting.

Next, let me introduce the contestants—Emily Jackson, Janet Jackson and Chloe Jackson. Like what I

pointed out last time, whoever wins this contest will be my apprentice. I don’t intend to go back on my

words.”After listening to Old Mr. Collins, the guests started talking about the three contestants.“I bet

Emily will win the contest because I heard she is really talented in drawing.”“Someone told me that she

has no integrity for having submitted a stolen work to Old Mr. Collins and nearly misled him into

accepting her as his apprentice previously.”“Just criticize her all you want. I think she still has what it

takes to be here even if she stole someone else’s work before.”“I think Chloe Jackson will be great.

Since her mother has arranged plenty of drawing lessons for her ever since she was little, I expect her

to be good.”“Who’s that Janet girl?”“Seems like she’s the one who gave a painting which was striking

similarly to one painted by Master Nato to Jade as a gift during her 70th birthday celebration.”“How’s

that possible? Can anyone actually draw like Master Nato? That must be a joke!” “Haha, it’s unlikely

enough that Janet Jackson actually knows how to draw as a girl who grew up in the countryside, let

alone have the ability to draw like Master Nato. She must have copied a genuine work of Master

Nato’s.”
