Chapter 793
“It’s not necessary. I know what level she’s at,” Master Springsteen said. Odell’s entrance into the rest
area caught Master Springsteen’s attention. With a polite nod to Master Springsteen , Odell then sat
down on the other side of the couch. Master Springsteen glanced at him a few times before
continuing to sip on his tea.
As soon as Lily started painting, the hall quieted down.
Sylvia, Simon and Christopher left the crowd and sat down, but Christopher’s extroverted side soon
drew him back to the crowd.
Sylvia continued to sit with Simon.
“Sylvia, are you alright?” Simon asked.
Earlier, Ramona had been mocking Sylvia about her status as an ex-wife. Then, Mr. Carmine had given
her a hard time. Even as a bystander, Simon had not been able to stand the insults, let alone the victim
herself.
Sylvia pursed her lips and said, “I’m fine. Don’t worry.”
She had been able to put up with the insults so far.
Simon felt relieved after seeing her relaxed expression.
It was then the crowd that surrounded Lily suddenly erupted.
“Oh my god! Ms. Springsteen’s painting is gorgeous!” “It’s amazing! It carries a certain mood.”
Sylvia turned to the lively crowd.
Simon grumbled, “Bunch of suck-ups.”
Sylvia smiled. “Maybe she really is good at painting.”
“If she was really that good at painting, she wouldn’t be nameless in the art world. Given her family’s
influence, if she possessed even a sliver of talent, her family would definitely have turned her into a
famous artist.”
Sylvia did not comment on his remark.
Then, Christopher came back. “Sylvia, Simon, Ms. Springsteen would like your critiques on her
painting. Please go and have a look.”
Simon frowned. “I don’t want to.”
Christopher pursed his lips. “Come on, please do it for
me.”
Simon pouted in silence.
The crowd around Lily quieted down and started to look
in their direction. They were waiting for them to comment on Lily’s painting.
Christopher found himself in a quandary.
Sylvia then said, “Mr. President, please allow me.”
If Simon really commented on Lily’s painting, he would definitely offend every one of the Springsteens.
Christopher breathed a sigh of relief but whispered into Sylvia’s ear, “Remember not to mention the
flaws and just focus on the good things.”
“I understand.”
Sylvia and Christopher returned to the crowd and went to Lily.
Everyone had their eyes on Sylvia and Lily.
Some of them could not suppress their urge to gossip.
One of them was Odell’s current fiance while the other one was the man’s ex-wife. The two of them
might be polite and friendly to each other, but who knew what was truly behind their smiles? Especially
now that the fiance had requested for the ex-wife to comment on her painting
Lily smiled at Sylvia and said, “Ms. Ross, please comment on my painting and give me a piece of
advice or two.”
Sylvia replied with a smile. “Okay.”
She then had a look at the painting.
The painting had been done with watercolor. At first glance, the colors were vibrant and lively, but on
second look, it had a poor finish.
Fortunately, even though her skills were not fully developed yet, her painting could be considered the
one of the best among amateurs. With Christopher’s reminder in her mind, Sylvia said, “ Ms. Lily is a
good painter, the colors are vibrant and lively.”
Lily smiled. “Then are there any flaws?”
“No.”
Lily smiled wider. “How would you rank my painting among painting enthusiasts?” “It could be
considered as one of the best.”
“Oh? What if it’s compared to the professionals?” she asked.
