Chapter 1016


    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 organizingmittee for the final review.


    Surprisingly, Lina, who was usually active in university activities, arrivedte that day. As she reached


    the ssroom 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!”


    “But…” The girl pointed toward the ssroom.


    Lina looked inside and saw everyone gathered around Violet. She was beaming with pride,


    passionately exining 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 disy


    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 nced 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 youe in since you’re already here?”


    Lina entered the ssroom with her painting, and the students were left dumbfounded at the

    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 exin?”


    “Exin?” Violet smiled. “What is there to exin?”


    “Why is yours the same as mine!?”


    “Are you using me of copying yours?” Violet crossed her arms, her eyes filled with intensity. “Sigh.


    Well, you’rete! I just had the judges review it a moment ago! I received many praises!”


    “You!” Lina eximed.


    “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 thepetition anymore!”


    “What does this have to do with you, Keira Campbell? Is your family business doing welltely!?” Violet


    retorted.


    Keira pursed her lips, unable to respond.


    Nevertheless, she stood by Lina’s side, showing her support.

    The other students in the ss 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!”
