Chapter 516

Third Person’s POV

Paisley took the painting off the wall, laid it flat on the table, and examined it once more. After taking a deep breath, she confirmed that it was indeed Asa.

She finally understood why she had felt a strange sense of familiarity when she saw Asa.

Comparing the painting to the features of Adelaide’s mother, Airella, there were a couple of similarities.

She looked up at another painting that Adelaide had been staring at earlier; that one probably bore an even stronger resemblance to Airella.

In her later years, Airella had become quite thin and seemed lifeless due to her blindness from weeping.

Seeing that there were no outsiders in the study, Paisley said directly, “I have two things to tell you. First, the person in this painting bears a couple of similarities to Airella, Adelaide’s mother. Second, the person in the painting is named Asa, also known as Astria. She was rescued by Madison and is set to mate Eugene in an attempt to manipulate him.”

“What?” Caldwell was shaken. “Is she from Madison’s side? What happened to her that she needed Madison’s rescue?”

“Caldwell, don’t panic. This so–called ‘rescue‘ might have some hidden story. I was already planning to have Craig draw a portrait of Asa and send someone to Fairfax County to investigate.”

Adelaide quickly asked, “Does she look like my mother to you?”
