Chapter 107: Cheyenne’s Moment of Radiance

Cheyenne stood there, stunned for a moment. Her mind was filled with a deafening buzz, and the words around her seemed distant and indistinct.

“You… you said what? Ten million?”

The old man nodded slowly and looked at her with difficulty. “Yes, and if you think it’s not enough, I can add more.”

The crowd couldn’t help but gasp in shock. Some even pinched themselves to make sure they weren’t dreaming. This plainly-dressed old man was actually a hidden billionaire.

But then again, who could afford to attend this exhibition other than the top dogs of Akloit? Cheyenne hesitated whether or not to accept the offer and instinctively turned to look at her grandfather.

Layne touched her soft hair and smiled softly as he spoke in a gentle tone, “If you want it, take it; if not, forget about it. I can still support you!” It was this last sentence that truly put Cheyenne’s mind at ease.

Her pinkish-white face became even more radiant under his smile. Despite wearing plain clothes without any makeup on, she still managed to stun everyone present with just her natural beauty alone.

Nora and Danielle were envious beyond words when they realized that eight million of their own contribution went into Cheyenne’s pocket instead of theirs! Why didn’t this little bitch use her abilities earlier on when she could have repaired the painting scroll herself?

Cheyenne had been hesitant before because she wasn’t short on money but when she noticed the intense hostility burning in the eyes of Nora and Danielle, her alluring, sensual lips curled into a seductive smile.

“I’ll give it a try.”

“Great! Thank you so much Miss Lawrence.”

Cheyenne quickly drafted a list for the manager, instructing him to purchase the necessary tools for restoring the ancient painting. Fortunately, most of the tools were readily available.

Once the tools were gathered, Cheyenne began her work.

The texture of this paper matched perfectly with that used in the original painting, so there would be no noticeable difference after coloring it. Cheyenne glanced at the broken scenery on the scroll – it was supposed to depict flowing water with ripples caused by wind gusts – so she mixed pine smoke color with some bluish-gray tones to match it up with what remained intact.
