Chapter 258
Bettany held the invitation letter, her heart pounding so fast that it was about to jump out.
She read the words over and over again, feeling like she was in a dream.
Would such a good thing really happen to her?
Bettany was not a hesitant person.
At such a young age, she had already taken on the burden of the family. This had trained her to be a
decisive person.
Since she had already gotten the invitation, she had to give it her all.
As she did not understand this competition, Bettany planned to ask Doris.
She ran downstairs with the invitation letter in her arms. After running a few steps, she turned back and went upstairs to get a painting she had drawn.
In the Taylor family, Doris was in the process of designing.
This competition was very important to her, so she had to give it her all.
Seeing Bettany walk over, Doris was a little surprised. “Why are you here?”
Bettany hugged the invitation letter. As she ran too quickly, she could not catch her breath.
It took a while for her to catch her breath.
“Doris, look!” Her eyes were bright like the stars in the sky.
Doris was instantly stunned.
She had never seen such a bright and dazzling Bettany. It seemed that ever since she met Bettany, Bettany had always been depressed. Although she was energetic and decisive, there was always a hint of worry in her
in her eyes.
“I can participate in the competition with you!” Bettany couldn’t control her excitement and showed the invitation to Doris.
At first, Doris did not react and thought that Bettany was joking. However, when she lowered her head, she saw the seal of the Painting Association on the invitation.
There was also Bettany’s name written on it.
Doris’s pupils constricted and her nails dug into her palms. She was too surprised and couldn’t believe it. “What’s wrong, Doris?” Seeing Doris’s stiff expression, Bettany seemed to have realized something.
This time, it did not seem like a good idea for her to come and look for Doris!
Bettany was a little vexed.
The moment she received the invitation, she was too excited. Her mind was in a daze and she did not consider everything.
She only thought that Doris would also be participating in this competition. The two of them would have a companion to talk to.
However, she had forgotten that if she participated in this competition, she and Doris would be competitors.
“Ah, I’m fine.” Doris brushed her hair behind her ear and explained to Bettany with a smile, “I’m sorry. I was just too surprised just now. I didn’t mean anything else.”
Bettany looked up and carefully observed Doris’s expression. Seeing that Doris really did not seem to mind, she relaxed.
“Olivia gave this to me.” Bettany’s fingertips rubbed the words on the invitation letter lovingly. “Olivia?” Doris frowned. After reacting for a while, she realized who Olivia was.
She couldn’t help but tug at Bettany’s sleeve and ask anxiously, “Are you talking about Olivia Taylor? My

second sister?”
Bettany nodded and looked at Doris curiously. “Doris, what’s the relationship between Olivia and your family? She told me that she’s only staying at your house temporarily. Actually, she has nothing to do with your family.”
Doris looked a little flustered. She stuttered, “Well, I can’t say for sure. Actually, I don’t know who she is either.”
“Oh.” Bettany didn’t continue asking.
She took out the painting she brought over and was a little embarrassed. “Doris, can you help me take a look? You know, I learned how to draw on my own. I’m not as good as you, so I want to ask you for help and give me some advice.”
If it was before today, Doris would definitely not waste time examining Bettany’s paintings.
But…
“Then I’ll help you take a look. It just so happens that we’re going to participate in the competition together and have a companion.” Doris reached out to take the painting from Bettany’s hand. Doris’s hand that was holding the painting suddenly froze when her gaze landed on the oil painting. This painting… The concept of this painting was actually very similar to the one she was painting now. The difference was that Bettany had already finished painting and she was thinking about the layout and color scheme.
Didn’t Bettany never learn how to paint before?
Doris forced a smile. “Yes, I’ve been drawing recently. I didn’t sleep well at night.”
The more Doris looked at it, the angrier she became. In the end, she tore off the painting she had drawn, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it a few times.
His face was unhappy all day long.
