While Investigating the profession of portrait artist, Teresa discovered that it was not only about mastering the basics of painting, but also understanding thews of human gics.
Each feature of a child’s face, she realized, contained features of their parents.
Therefore, she frequently used herself as a model. She oftenpared her own features to those of her mom, trying to extrapte her dad’s appearance from the
simnties and differences.
To her surprise, the image of her dad that she painted was of apletely unfamiliar man.
Initially, she thought she had made a mistake somewhere, so she continually improved her skills.
However, no matter how many times she painted, the ‘dad she painted was always this stranger, without exception!
Teresa was truly puzzled because she had never seen this man before. Ever since she was bom, her mom had been Marguente, and her dad was Maurice There was no <b>reason </b>for there to be a mistake! Therefore, Teresa could only hide this painting
She was afraid that her mom and dad would be hurt if they knew she doubted her own origins.
She didn’t want to upset her mom and dad.
With a sigh of mncholy, Teresa, as serious as a mature adult, put away the two portraits of her dads, quickly finished the one she was working on, and sentit off to Miley
Then, she quickly added a message, “Miley, painting portraits takes so much out of me, I need a break.”
On the other end, receiving the portrait, Miley breathed a sigh of relief.
She immediately forwarded it to the client, who quickly sent the bnce of payment.
Counting the hefty sum, Miley was in high spints. She couldn’t wait to share the joy with Robert, but she noticed he was busy on a phone call
Finally, when he hung up, Miley immediately asked, “What’s going on? You’ve been busy all day, and even during our date you seemed preupied.”
Robert seemed <b>a </b>bit imitated, “It’s about my sister. I heard from Wade Charles that there is a portrait artist named Terry in Stonebridge City who can infer what someone will lock like in the future from their current face. I was thinking of sending a photo of my sister when she was bom to see if that artist could extrapte what she might look like now, which would make finding her easier”
When Miley heard this, she swallowed hard, looked at the message from Teresa, and then at Robert. She wanted to say something, but she wasn’t sure should
Terry is Teresa!
Miley blinked, “Maybe I could help you look for this person?”
“You know Terry?”
“Uh. “Miley was caught off guard. Tve just heard the name.”
To be honest, getting Teresa to paint a portrait is not that easy, because she was an entric girl who took jobs based on her mood. Several times
Miley had tried tomission work from her, Teresa had declined for various masons So, Miley wasn’t sure what Teresa was thinking.
Plus, Teresa had just suid she needed a break, so Miley <b>was </b>sure that if she approached her now, she would be turned down. Therefore, Miley chose to keep the
truth hidden for now
She would try to convince Teresater, and she could tell Robert when the dust had settled
Miley changed the subject, “Did you hear that Mr. Winston called Marguerite in today? What’s going on?
Robert shrugged, “Who knows what Frederick is thinking, that man can be vindictive Why are you thinking of helping again?”
“Of course Miley was adamant, “Back then, I didn’t know about Mr. Winston and Yuna’s situation and advised Marguente not to persist. Now that he’s <b>still </b>a bachelor and she’s still single, I’ll certainly go all out for my best friend I’ll <b>snatch </b>Mr. Winston back from Yuna
Exhausted, Robert rubbed his temples, then tabbed Miley on the shoulder
For now, I leave this challenging mission to <b>you</b><b>. </b>I have <b>more </b>important tasks to handle. I cant dy finding my sister any longer!”
Mijey looked at Robert <b>wide</b><b>–</b>eyed
Why did she feel like they were a bit like Mr & Mrs Smith?
