Chapter 426

Maja was utterly bewildered, unable to figure out lan’s real intentions.

She returned to RosenGarden, taking along her favorite drawing tools, and arrived at the hotel.

Upon arriving, there was already a painting ready on the easel by the window.

Maja could tell at a glance that it was the work of her mentor.

“Mr. Raymond?”

She heard the sound of running water coming from the bathroom. Shortly, lan walked out, dabbing at the droplets of water in his hair.

“Tyler gifted me a painting. I heard Herbert left it half–done. Could you help me finish it?”

Maja glanced at it. It was an oil painting. All she had to do was mimic her master’s graceful technique.

She nodded, lifting her eyes and keeping her gaze steady.
