Chapter 1308
“Shadow?”
“Yeap.” Cecile rested her chin on her palm.” I‘m sure you know what shadow means, right, Mrs. Goldmann? It means she can only live under the light of other people. She will forever be that person‘s accessory. Everyone knows about Sue, but no one knows that Sue has a sister named Maxine.”
Maxine and Sue were twins. However, her mother preferred Sue over Maxine from childhood. This was because Sue had been the most outstanding child in her mother‘s eyes.
Sue had good grades since she was a kid, but her sister, Maxine, was totally opposite of her. Their mother had kept comparing
Maxine to her sister. Whenever their relatives or other guests visited them, their mother would only let Sue come out to receive the guests, and she would lock Maxine up in the room.
After all, in her mother‘s opinion, Maxine was an extra. She was a disgrace to their family.
After graduating high school, Maxine had not been accepted into the Turner Institute of Art. Instead, Sue had been accepted into the college of her dreams.
Sue had been aware that studying at Turner Institute of Art was her sister‘s dream, so she gave the opportunity to Maxine. In the end, Maxine had entered the Turner Institute of Art with her sister‘s identity and became Adrian‘s student.
However, things had not gone as smoothly as they had expected Fearing that her sister would expose herself and their mother‘s rage, Sue had helped her sister finish her assignments and even attended her examinations. She had not given Maxine a chance to perform at all.
With those papers, Sue had become an excellent student in the eyes of those professors, including Adrian, and Maxine was able to enjoy the benefits as well, thanks to Sue. However, for Maxine they were impressed by Sue‘s talent, not hers. In the eyes of the teachers and students, they only knew Sue. They did not know her at all.
Maisie lowered her head. It seemed to her that Nolan‘s speculation was correct.
Maxine was Adrian‘s student. It was just that she had been using Sue‘s identity.
