Chapter 781
Jewel waved her hand casually and pointed to the signature on the page before saying, “Mr. Amos White.”
Ellen was shocked once again as she asked excitedly, “Is this a portrait done by Old Mr. White? How did you manage to commission a portrait of me from him?”
Yet, Jewel merely revealed a smile.
The happiest thing on earth was having one’s efforts recognized by the other party.
It was not much about the price of the portrait nor the sentiment behind it, but the fact that the drawing was done by Amos White; in other words, it was a priceless possession. Moreover, this was his final production before retirement.
Ellen was very excited about the gift and she could not help checking out the portrait repeatedly. “I heard of this master in calligraphy and drawing before, and he’s very famous. Jewel, I can’t believe you managed to commission a portrait of me from Old Mr. White. This is such a nice surprise!”
Jewel shot a look at Olivia, indicating to her to explain the situation as it would take Jewel too long to explain.
As such, Olivia smiled and said, “Jewel did Old Mr.
White a huge favor before, so he promised that he would grant her a single wish. That’s why she requested for him to draw you a portrait.”
Ellen responded, “Gosh, you’ve used up such a precious request on me. I love it so much. It’s such a great painting and I look stunning.”
On the morning of the third day, Kyle brought Theodore over.
As soon as Theodore saw Eugene, he was dumbfounded and clearly did not expect that Eugene would have figured out he was involved within such a short timeframe.
Although he did not receive any update regarding the assassin that night, he did hear through the grapevine that Eugene had set off to Promise Island.
As such, Theodore had assumed that it was a successful attempt and Eugene had gone to the island to pay his final respect.
“What do you want me to say?”
Eugene replied, “Who instructed you to do this?”
Theodore answered defiantly, “No one. I didn’t like you and your mom suffered thanks to you.”
As soon as he said that, Kyle instantly grabbed him by the hair and slammed his head on the ground several times. “Mr. Nolan is asking you a question, so you’d better answer that properly if you don’t wanna crack open your skull.”
After the bashing, Theodore saw stars while he bled on the forehead as blood trickled down from his face.
Despite that, he revealed a smile. “Just kill me if you’re so great.”
Yet, there was a sinister, cold smile that appeared on Eugene’s lips. “I can do that, but let me think about who I should start from. How about your son, first? Next, it will be your wife and finally, you’d be the last. By then, your family of three would be reunited…”
