Chapter 101:

Sarah stared provocatively at Kallie. “This must be a piece of cake for you, huh?”

A wave of bitterness washed over Kallie, spreading from her heart to her limbs, making her fingertips tingle.

Kallie found it hard to believe that Jake could hold such contempt for her behind her back. She doubted Jake would fail to recognize her work; after all, her handwritten note was attached to it.

Kallie’s mind then drifted to her childhood.

At that time, Jake had always mocked Kallie’s handwriting. He insisted on forcing her to practice daily, and over time, Kallie’s handwriting improved significantly.

One day, Kallie decided to test Jake by blending her writing with others similar to hers and challenged him to identify hers.

With just a quick glance, Jake picked it out, saying, “You’re practically half my apprentice. Could I mistake it? Though you learned it from me directly, you managed to pick up some quirks.”

At that moment, Kallie couldn’t help but laugh behind her hand at his egotism.

Kallie had no idea that those fleeting moments would soon be treasured as memories beyond reach.

The sight of the broken sculpture struck yet another blow to Kallie’s heart, as if declaring that the past might forever remain just that, a memory.

Sarah kept probing, her eyes wide with feigned innocence. “What’s wrong? Is it too tough to repair? It seems like that’s all you’ve got. I’m no expert, but even I could fix it myself.”

A bystander, unable to contain their irritation, came to Kallie’s defense. “You’re being too harsh. Why blame Kallie? It’s not her fault.”
