Meanwhile, at Scarlet Pinnacle Manor.
Vera was standing in front of the desk, looking at the landscape painting in front of her that was already completed.
The winding mountains stood tall in the painting, and there seemed to be ripples in the water in the lake, which was extremely beautiful.
Vera stretched out her slender fingers and touched the thickest part of the painting like a dragonfly splashing on water. After determining that there was no sticky feeling, she looked at her clean fingertip again and saw that there was no ink stain there. Thus, she was certain that the painting was already completely dry.
She then used the scroll that she had prepared to carefully mount the painting into a golden scroll. After the mounting was completed and rolled into a scroll, Vera sealed the scroll with a silk ribbon.
Mr. Raven’s voice sounded outside the door as he said, “Miss, can I come in?”
Vera said loudly, “Come in.”
Mr. Raven, who was already slightly hunched, staggered in. When he saw that the landscape painting on the desk had already been turned into a scroll, he quickly said, “Congratulations on the completion of your masterpiece, Miss!”
Vera said calmly, “It can’t be said to be a masterpiece.”
After saying that, she asked him, “By the way, why are you looking for me, Mr. Raven?”
