Chapter 449: You have a fever 1

The next day.

Edward Stephens didn’t need to go out today, a rare day off.

When he woke up, the air was tinged with a faint mist, and outside, he could hear the sound of rain hitting against the glass windows.

It was raining.

He sat up in bed and heard laughter coming from downstairs, a rare instance of joyous sound that piqued his curiosity.

After washing up, Edward, wearing slippers, leisurely went downstairs and saw Erin Ginger sitting on the sofa, with a drawing board in front of her, surprisingly making a portrait of his housemaid.

A few finished pieces were already being shown around and whispered about. Seeing him coming down the stairs, they immediately reined in their expressions and greeted him, "Good morning, Mr. Stephens!"

"You all..." He frowned.

"It’s like this," the housemaid explained, stepping forward, "Little Erin wanted to go sketching outside this morning, but since it was raining, we persuaded him to practice his drawing at home." As she spoke, she couldn’t help but glance at Erin, praising, "This child is very well-behaved, doesn’t make a fuss, eats whatever he’s given, and isn’t picky."

Beautiful and sensible children are always favored by adults.

Edward walked over, glanced a few times at Erin’s easel, and noticed his skill in drawing was very adept; with just a few strokes, he sketched out the contours of the model sitting in front.

Such skill, for a child from an ordinary family, would likely take four to five years of learning to become proficient.

This was probably talent.
