Chapter 394

It was only by chance that Maja found his style strikingly similar to a painter she adored. When she enquired, she was stunned to find that it was the same person.

And she had become Herbert’s last apprentice without even realizing it.

Herbert never participated in any social events, always ranting about how fake people were.
