President’s Secret Obsession With Ex-wife

Emily still had that childlike innocence about her. When she talked, her eyes lit up and she talked too much without realizing it.

Probably dealing with difficult people on a regular basis, it was surprisingly rare for Victoria to be relaxed when she was with her.

She looked towards Emily’s painting and stayed quiet.

Emily sighed with a paintbrush in her hand.

She hadn’t really expected Victoria to give any constructive advice, but she saw her suddenly take the brush aside and modify a few strokes on the drawing paper.

The picture, which had lacked vigor, instantly came to life.

Her eyes widened involuntarily and she raised a hand to rub her eyes.

“You… You just changed the colors right? Geez, it’s like a different one, did you major in painting too?”

It was easy to see that she was an insider after seeing such skilled brushwork and her knack for tweaking colors.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Victoria nodded and put her brush down, “You actually have a pretty good foundation, just a slightly poorer color scheme.”

Emily’s little face reddened with excitement and her lips curled, “I know, I’m very confident in this painting now when you change it like this. In fact, this is the painting which I plan to take to the competition. My mentor told me to get some inspiration. I was going to ask my cousin, but he…. his wife is really annoying, she stood him up and put him in a bad mood.”

She grumbled, her eyes crystalizing on Victoria, “Thank you, your name is Poppy right, where do you live? Can I visit you often from now on?”

Victoria frowned, it wasn’t that she didn’t like Emily, she was just worried that if she got in too deep contact with Andrews’ family, it would be thought that she had ulterior motives.

“I’m sorry, it might be a little inconvenient at my house.”

Emily was quite simple, and she didn’t even realize that it was a euphemism for rejection.

She’d never been rejected in all her life, either.

“Add your FB then?”

Victoria thought about it and pulled out her work account.

Emily added cheerfully and then started mixing colors on the side.

“Sit down for a moment. I’ll be done in a minute. Somehow, being directed by you, I was instantly inspired.”

Victoria didn’t bother her as Emily mixed colors and gossiped, “This drawing room is still my cousin’s, he used to love to read here.”

Nick’s room?

Victoria couldn’t help but take a look around. It had a moderate design, but several walls had hollowed out designs. As light shone out from the hollowed-out area, there was a distinct flavor, it can be seen that it was carefully designed.

Victoria quietly surveyed the furnishings of the place as she debated with how she was going to explain it to Nick afterward.

Was this Nick’s preferred style?

The doors and cabinets were built of dark brown solid wood and seemed to be customized, even the handles were full of detail.

It was evident that the owner had a great taste in life and was an extreme detail oriented person.

Victoria was really a little thankful for Emily at this point, since she had circled Nick several times without getting any useful information.

Since Emily had entered Nick’s private domain with her, the style that belonged to him now

permeated.

“My cousin added all the details in this room, you see those cut-out designs?”

Throughout the room, Victoria’s favorite was this place where the light penetrated from inside. Some of the hollowed out places would be like a mirage, at night.

Once the lights were off, it was up to the light in the walls to light up a corner, a place that was especially good for thinking.

She suddenly remembered what Gabriel had said, that the man was indeed not only a business tycoon, but also artistically gifted.

“How’s that for a good aesthetic like my cousin?” Emily asked, putting down her paintbrush. Her tone was full of pride, it was evident that she admired this cousin very much.

When she finished speaking, she wrinkled her eyebrows, “Unfortunately, grandpa wanted my cousin to marry a good-for-nothing woman, and even though Claire Rodriguez isn’t very good and pretentious, at least she has a high education and her looks are passable, but now this woman… I even feel aggrieved for my cousin!”

“…” Victoria was speechless.

A little mixed mood persisted, and she felt more determined not to reveal her identity.

How would Emily react if she knew she was the same cousin-in-law she despised?

She would never cross paths with her again.

Emily exhaled, probably realizing she’d said a bit too much, and hastily changed the subject, “So I can ask you on FB if I have questions in the future, right?”

“Okay, but I have to go back now.”

“I’ll walk you down.”

Leaving Andrews Villa, Victoria went straight back to the studio.

During this time Emily was positive and sent words of thanks, but she didn’t look at them much.

Just as she entered the office, she saw Wesley.

Wesley was accompanied by Elda who was a female employee of the studio.

She was the same girl who Amelia said was always pestering Wesley.

Elda saw her and her face looked a bit bad. Pulling a smile out of her skin, her eyes got full of resentment.

“Yo! Our big contributor is back.” As soon as the words were out of her mouth, the rest of the office all looked up.

Everyone had heard about Victoria taking Nick’s order, and now that it was not a secret in the designer world, their studio’s orders had also skyrocketed.

In just one day, orders increased tenfold.
