Dear Ex-wife Marry Me

Chapter 394

Looking back, Maja still found it amusing that the guy never bothered to ask her real name and she had no idea she had become Herbert’s apprentice. Herbert’s work was top–notch, but he was a social recluse and hated having his photo taken, so his face was unknown to most

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.

“Penny, I’m giving you this painting. See if you like it. Don’t stand on ceremony with me. The auction house has been nagging me for it. I gave them a non–committal answer. If you want it, it’s yours.”

His affection for her was plain as day.

In the initial years, Herbert taught Maja a thing or two. Especially when they were in Crystalbrook Valley; he taught her everything he knew.

That year, Maja improved by leaps and bounds.

Eventually, Herbert felt there was nothing more he could teach her, so he left to seek inspiration around the world.
