Sushanty Hury of snow began to fall outside the window nketing the streets in white
The Christmas hights fromst month were still hanging their glow intermingling with the snowfall, a
lingering reminder of the festive season.
The door was ying “Jingle Hells” overhead, as if everyone was in a celebratory mood, everyone but

Marguerite’s cut was parked in the underground lot of the Thunderbolt Building She had to first return
to the building before driving back to her mansion.
The manstens steps were covered in snow Marguente almost slipped as she climbed them
Upon seeing Marguente return, Nadine quickly made her a hot cup of tea, “Ma’am, the young master
won’t being home tonight. He’s workingte”
Maurice rarely workedte Ever since Frederick left, he had been fearless for three whole years. Now,
with Frederick’s powerful return and hispany’s growing Ses, Maunce naturally felt threatened
His absence was a wee respite for Marguente
Marguerite sipped her tea and nodded, “Alright, you can rest now”
Before leaving, Nadine handed Marguente a tube of itch relief ointment, “Ma’am, Teresa said her foot
was itchy this morning I think it’s her birthmark acting up again She didn’t let me in, so would you mind
taking this to her?”
Teresa had a red birthmark on the sole of her foot. It was small, but slightly raised.
When Teresa was bom, the birthmark was just a red mole, so Marguerite hadn’t paid it muchumind But
as time passed, the mole grew bigger. Marguerite mmediately took Teresa to the hospital, and the
doctors concluded that it wasn’t a natural birthmark, it was due to the father’s excessive smoking
during conception the toxins in his body had affected the child, resulting in the birthmark.
This revtion had troubled Marguerite for a long time since Maurice never smoked.
She had even doubted whether Teresa was Maurice’s child! But, she had only ever been with one man,
and that was Maurice. Perhaps he had been a heavy smoker in the past and quitter on? This was
the only exnation Marguerite could think of
Meanwhile, in Teresa’s bedroom
The room was littered with Teresa’s sketches, some were taped to the walls, some scattered on the
floor
The room was imbued with a sense of artistic disarray.
At that moment, Teresa was funously sketching a portrait on her easel. The top left corner of the easel
had a blurred surveince photo taped to it. A man’s figure could be vaguely seen in the photo, but his
face was indistinguishable.
Just then, Miley’s voice message came through. Teresa pressed y and heard Miley’s anxious voice,
“Teresa! Have you finished the portrait I asked for? This surveince footage is quite blurry, can you
work with it?”
Teresa tossed her pencil down in frustration, her babyish voice tinged with impatience. I’m working on
it! I can recreate any face, no matter how blurry! Stop rushing me, I finish soon!
Teresa was spoiled growing up and aside from y, nothing else interested her But half a year ago,
she watched a TV show called “The Sketch Artist” and thought that being an artist was really cool! The
protagonist could recreate a person’s face based on the vague figures from surveince footage, by
observing the muscle
movements and bone structure.
Teresa was intrigued and decided to delve into the world of sketch artistry, finding many online courses
to teach herself. She was smart and incredibly talented. Not only did she leam how to recreate faces
from surveince footage, but she could also urately depict the aging process in her sketches
Most importantly, she could deduce the parents‘ appearances based on a child’s facial features!
And she was always spot on, never once making a mistake.
