Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Chapter 394

It was only by chance that Maja found his style strikingly similar to a painter she adored. When she enquired, she was stunned to find that it was the same person.

And she had become Herbert’s last apprentice without even realizing it.

Herbert never participated in any social events, always ranting about how fake people were.

“Penny, I’m giving you this painting. See if you like it. Don’t stand on ceremony with me. The auction house has been nagging me for it. I gave them a non–committal answer. If you want it, it’s yours.”

His affection for her was plain as day.

In the initial years, Herbert taught Maja a thing or two. Especially when they were in Crystalbrook Valley; he taught her everything he knew.

Eventually, Herbert felt there was nothing more he could teach her, so he left to seek inspiration around the world.
