Evelyn was also full of confidence after being praised by her mother. She felt that among so many people, she was the most talented child. She would definitely be liked by Fellow Lawrence. When the time came, she would definitely be superior to Amelia. Brother Lucas would also look at her in a different light!
At this moment, on the second floor of the Walton family, Old Master Walton patted Amelia’s shoulder and said gently, “Mia, let’s go. Grandpa will introduce you to a new friend.”
Amelia nodded. “Yes!”
In the hall on the first floor of the Walton family’s residence, people who had studied Western art were all here, chatting with an old man with a smile.
“It’s really an honor to meet Fellow Lawrence.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Fellow Lawrence rarely comes out these days. Are you preparing to be the judge of the second Western Arts Conference?
The old man was wearing green clothes. He smiled and shook his head. “I’m old and can’t be a judge anymore. I came here today to take in a little disciple.” Hubert Lawrence was in a good mood. After seeing the painting that Old Master Walton had sent him, he was so excited that he didn’t sleep for two days! Amelia’s painting was full of spirituality. He hadn’t seen such a talented child in decades! Therefore, when Old Master Walton asked him if he would take in Amelia as his disciple, he would definitely take her in!
Hubert’s words were like a bomb. Everyone widened their eyes in shock. Oh my god, Fellow Lawrence was actually going to take in a disciple? And a little disciple?! Who was it? Who was so honored!
Everyone was guessing and envious at the same time. Although they knew that it was not them, they were all excited and waited to witness the scene of Fellow Lawrence taking in a disciple. At this moment, Evelyn’s mother walked in with Evelyn. Everyone’s gaze immediately landed on Evelyn. Evelyn’s talent in painting was quite famous in the circle. She had been accepted into the
Western Art Institute at a young age and her age was in line with Fellow Lawrence’s “young” disciple. If there was anyone present who was most likely to be taken in by Fellow Lawrence, it would definitely be Evelyn!
For a moment, everyone had smiles on their faces as they chatted with Evelyn’s mother and Evelyn in a friendly manner. Evelyn lowered her head and was obedient and quiet. She maintained her image as a noble lady very well, but when she thought about how she was about to be accepted as a disciple by Fellow Lawrence, she could not help but reveal some pride in her eyes.
Evelyn’s mother pretended to ask casually, “Fellow Lawrence, I heard that you’re going to take in a little disciple? Everyone is very curious. Which child is so honored to receive your favor?
Hubert chuckled and said, “It’s a child. She uses colors boldly, has a strange imagination, and is the most talented child I’ve seen in decades.”
When Evelyn’s mother heard this, she was overjoyed! Yes! It was her Evelyn! She also felt that Evelyn had a rich imagination and was bold! They actually troubled Fellow Lawrence to come to the Walton residence to take in a disciple. How inconsiderate of them!
Evelyn was sensitive to her mother’s emotions and felt happy. She took a deep breath and mustered her courage to walk to Hubert. “Hello, Grandpa Lawrence. My name is Evelyn. I like your work very much. You’re my idol.”
Only then did Hubert notice Evelyn’s existence. He nodded and said, “Alright, thank you for your admiration, little friend.” Although Hubert did not like socializing and did not like those superficial things, he was actually very approachable.
Evelyn was very happy. She felt that Hubert liked her performance. Just as she was about to say something, Amelia, who had changed her clothes, came downstairs. She was carrying a few paintings in her arms. Andrew held her hand and introduced her in a low voice, “That grandpa is Teacher Lawrence.”
Amelia nodded and walked up to Hubert. She raised her head and called out,
“Hello, Teacher Lawrence.”
Hubert paused, then laughed and said, “Alright, alright, alright. You’re Mia, right?” Children that young usually called him Grandpa Lawrence, but Mia called him teacher with a serious expression. He felt that she was very adorable. Her personality should be the kind of person who was stubborn and respected her teachers.
Hubert raised his hand to touch the small bun on Amelia’s head and asked, “How old is Mia this year?
Amelia paused for a moment and stole a glance at Hubert. This Teacher Lawrence did not seem to be very smart. She was celebrating her fourth birthday today, so of course she was four years old.
However, Amelia thought for a moment and replied obediently, “Teacher
Lawrence, I am celebrating my fourth birthday today, so I am four years old.”
Hubert: “…” He did not know if it was his imagination, but why did he feel that Mia’s tone was filled with helplessness and sighing?
