Suddenly, Renee remembered what Melvin had said to her before his execution.
"Such a good opportunity to impersonate Pamela and gain the Thompson Group, but you didn't want it! You're as
foolish as your mother! You both wretched women!"
Renee's head throbbed abruptly, and she trembled slightly.
"Renee?" Toph looked at her with concern. "Are you feeling unwell?"
His hand had not reached her when she moved away.
Toph's hand hung awkwardly in the air, a bit embarrassed. It felt like a needle had pricked him, and a drop of blood
seeped.
"Renee—"
Before he could form his sentence, there was a knock on the door. Even before the person entered, their sweet
voice could be heard.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I hope I'm not late for such a happy occasion?"
Arya walked in with a gift, heading straight for Lina as soon as she entered the room.
Lina was pleasantly surprised. "Why did you come too?"
"Zuko told me!" Arya's eyes curved with a smile. "He's so eager to announce to the world with a megaphone that
he's going to be a father!"
Zuko cleared his throat twice. He could barely keep his cool and composed image.
Lina was amused. She did not see anything wrong with Zuko and Arya texting privately. However, Renee's
expression turned sour when Toph talked to Arya for a bit.
A person with an open heart naturally would not think negatively of others. However...
Renee rose to her feet, her eyes carrying a touch of coldness. She scanned the room, particularly focusing on Arya
as she approached Toph. Her fists tightened, nails digging into her skin.
"Hi, Toph!" Arya initiated a work-related conversation. "About the drafts you sent earlier, the plot looks promising.
However, the character design requires further attention. Specifically, the male lead's attire needs more elegance."
Toph listened attentively, visualizing the changes in his mind.
"Your male lead is a foreign prince." Arya continued. "So, when you draw him, you should incorporate foreign
elements. I've marked my suggestions on the drafts and sent them to your email. Take a look when you get the
chance!"
"Sure!" Toph smiled sincerely, nodding in agreement.
Renee looked at him, puzzled. "You... You're drawing?"
Toph froze.
Arya could tell what was happening by looking at their faces. It seemed that Toph, who was known for being
careless, hadn't talked to Renee about it.
Although she did not hold any favorable impression of Renee, she still respected her as Toph's fiancee and thought
she needed to treat her respectfully.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmArya politely smiled. "Well, he sent me a few drafts last time, along with the plot. I thought they were quite good.
Toph's drawing style aligns well with the fine art style comics. If he works on it well, he might become a rising star in
the comic industry!"
But Renee completely ignored Arya. Her gaze was solely locked on Toph. She spoke slowly and clearly, asking him,
"How come I had no idea you were drawing comics?"
Toph hurried to explain, "I... I did tell you..."
"You didn't!"
"I really did!"
Toph showed her his phone.
He had sent her dozens of messages in a day, but she would only reply with a few words.
One of those messages was: [Renee, I sent a few drafts to Arya for her evaluation. I want to venture into the comic
world, too. If luck is on my side, it might even be adapted into a mobile game. That way, I can make a name for
myself! Renee, do you support me?"
Renee's hands were trembling. She hadn't paid any attention to the messages he had sent her, causing her to miss
this specific one.
