Chapter 36 Our Heroine Is Back
Chapter 36 Our Heroine Is Back
Zoey was as innocent as a child. As she spoke, her eyes glowed. She involuntarily chattered away.
Perhaps Penny usually dealt with unreasonable people, so she rarely felt relaxed when she was with Zoey.
Penny looked at Zoey's drawing without saying a word.
Zoey held the painting brush and sighed.
She didn't expect Penny to give any constructive advice in the beginning. Suddenly, Penny took a painting brush on the side and made a few strokes on the drawing.
The dull drawing instantly came to life, and even the lines became vivid.
Zoey widened her eyes involuntarily and rubbed her eyes.
"Did... Did you only change the color? My goodness! It seems totally different. Did you learn drawing before?"
Judging from Penny's skillful strokes and the way she mixed the colors, Zoey knew she was an expert.
Penny nodded and put down the painting brush.
"You've got a good start, but you need to improve on the combination of colors."
Zoey blushed with excitement and smiled brightly.
"I know. I'm confident with this drawing after you made the adjustment. In fact, I'm going to sign up for a competition with this drawing. My mentor asked me to come back and get some inspiration. I wanted to ask my cousin, but he... Why did his wife stand him up? That's too bad."
Zoey complained and stared at Penny with bright eyes.
"Thank you. Are you Perry? Where do you live? Can I come to see you often in the future?"
Penny frowned. It was not that she didn't like Zoey. She was worried that if she got in touch with Zoey, the Fletcher family would think she had ulterior motives.
"I'm sorry, but it's not convenient."
Zoey was naïve and didn't realize it was a tactful refusal.
She had never been refused before.
"Let's friend each other on WhatsApp."
Penny thought for a while and told Zoey about her work account.
After Zoey happily friended Penny, she started to mix the color.
"Please sit here for a while. I'll finish it soon. Your advice somehow inspired me suddenly."
Penny didn't bother Zoey, who mixed the colors and gossiped.
"This drawing room belongs to my cousin. He used to read here."
Was this Orlando's room?
Penny couldn't help looking around. The style of the room was average, but there were several hollow-up decorations on the walls, and it looked dainty when the light shone through the creeks. It could be seer that it was delicately designed.
At this point, Penny was thinking worriedly about how she should explain it to Orlando. However, she couldn't help secretly studying the decoration of the room.
Was this the style that Orlando liked?
The door and the cabinets were made of dark brown wood. Penny thought they should be customized. Even the doorknob was exquisite.
It could be seen that the owner of the room had a fine taste and was meticulous about details.
At this moment, Penny was grateful to Zoey. She had been trying to figure out what style Orlando liked, but she failed to get any useful information from him. Now that Zoey ushered her into the private place of Orlando, she could see the unique taste of the man.
"My cousin added some small things to the room. Do you see the hollow-out design?"
That was Penny's favorite part of the room. The light came out of the hollow-out creeks, which should look like a mirage at night.
When the light was off in the room, the light from the hollow-out decorations on the wall shone on the corner, which turned into a place for contemplation.
Penny suddenly remembered Colin said Orlando was not only a tycoon in business but also a genius in art.
"What do you think? Does my cousin have a fine taste?"
Zoey put down her painting brush and said proudly. It could be seen that she admired her cousin a lot.
After she spoke, Zoey said with a frown, "But it's a pity that my grandpa asked my cousin to marry a worthless woman. Although I don't like Angie, who's pretentious, at least, she is well-educated and good- looking. And his wife... I feel upset for my cousin."
Penny was speechless.
She felt complicated, thinking more firmly that she couldn't expose her identity.
If Zoey knew that she was the worthless wife of Orlando, Penny didn't know how the girl would react.
Penny hoped she wouldn't meet Zoey again in the future.
After Zoey complained, she realized she had talked too much about that and quickly changed the subject.
"Can I ask for your advice on WhatsApp if I encounter any problems?"
"Yes, but I gotta go now."
"I'll walk you to the gate."
After leaving Fletcher's mansion, Penny went straight back to the studio.
Meanwhile, Zoey sent a message to Penny and expressed her gratitude, but Penny didn't look at it.
Upon entering the office, Penny saw Kale.
A female colleague named Norah Kirk was standing next to him.
According to Clare, it was the woman that kept pestering Kale.
When Norah saw Penny, she turned sullen and forced a smile with jealousy in her eyes.
"There you are. Our heroine is back."
