The similarities were too much!

From the face shape to the eyebrows, eyes, nose, and that beauty mark on her upper lips-everything about the woman in the portraits was identical to Darin, whom Violet had seen earlier that day.

Violet suddenly felt as if she couldn't breathe, and a sense of absurdity overwhelmed her. The person she had just met was now captured so vividly in a painting, and Kyle hadn't even seen Darin before. How could Kyle portray her in such a lifelike manner?

She turned to look at Kyle and Jacob, who stood in front of another portrait. "What about this one? If she lived a good life, with plenty of resources, she'd look like this-rounded and healthy."

Kyle continued, "As for this one, it's the same idea, but I changed her eyebrows and hairstyle. This next one shows her in a worse condition. I assumed she was unable to eat enough or stay warm, which is why she appears thinner..." Then, Kyle waved at Violet. "Violet, go on over there. Don't stand in our way."

Violet pointed at the painting before her, struggling to regain her voice. "I met this person today."

All eyes in the room turned toward her, including Jacob. Violet's arm was still shaking as she pointed at the painting. She swallowed hard, and looked at Kyle with trembling eyes.
