The next day arrived, marking the art submission day.
All the students who wished to participate in the art exhibition brought their paintings for the judges’ preliminary
and official reviews before submitting them to the organizing committee for the final review.
Surprisingly, Lina, who was usually active in university activities, arrived late that day. As she reached the classroom
door, a fellow student stopped her.
“Lina…”
“What’s wrong?” asked Lina.
The girl, known for her honesty, had seen Lina’s painting, The Fireflies’ Light. Lina had intentionally shown it to her.
“Lina, did you bring your painting?”
“Of course!” Lina feigned ignorance. “It’s my submission!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“But…” The girl pointed toward the classroom.
Lina looked inside and saw everyone gathered around Violet. She was beaming with pride, passionately explaining
her own “work.”
“I came up with the idea of fireflies after thinking about it for a few days! What do you think? It’s unique, isn’t it?
“I meticulously adjusted the colors, bit by bit… My, oh my. It was a lot of work. I hardly slept for two days.”
“It’s my hard work and sweat. Even if I don’t win anything at the exhibition, I could auction it and display it in a
gallery! My dad said he’d arrange a solo exhibition for me. By then, I’ll definitely hang this painting in the most
prominent spot!”
The girl glanced at Lina, feeling a sense of injustice, but she couldn’t do anything about it.
However, Lina found it amusing. ‘Violet, please remember what you said today. You must hold your own exhibition
and hang the painting in the most prominent spot!’
“Lina!” The girl said with concern. “Look… why is her painting the same as yours? Two days ago, I saw your painting
in the studio, and she hadn’t even started painting. It’s obvious that—”
“Lina?” Violet’s voice interrupted at that moment. “Why don’t you come in since you’re already here?”
Lina entered the classroom with her painting, and the students were left dumbfounded at the sight.
The two paintings were… exactly the same?
However, upon closer examination of the brushstrokes and colors, Lina’s painting appeared superior.
Lina said expressionlessly, “Violet, care to explain?”
“Explain?” Violet smiled. “What is there to explain?”
“Why is yours the same as mine!?”
“Are you accusing me of copying yours?” Violet crossed her arms, her eyes filled with intensity. “Sigh. Well, you’re
late! I just had the judges review it a moment ago! I received many praises!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You!” Lina exclaimed.
“Lina, I’ve already warned you,” Violet approached Lina, emphasizing each word fiercely. “You better watch your
behavior when you’re around me, or I’ll make your life difficult!”
“Violet, this is going too far.” Keira, the girl who had stood up for Lina, spoke up. “You copied her work and showed
it to the judges first. What about Lina? She can’t participate in the competition anymore!”
“What does this have to do with you, Keira Campbell? Is your family business doing well lately!?” Violet retorted.
Keira pursed her lips, unable to respond.
Nevertheless, she stood by Lina’s side, showing her support.
The other students in the class began whispering to each other.
“So, Violet copied her work?”
“Damn! She has the audacity to show off after stealing someone else’s creativity. She thinks she can do whatever
she wants just because her family is wealthy!”
