Chapter 486


    Amused by my words, Remingtonughed and shrugged. “Well, his fantasy about his first love has


    been shattered, and the culprit is just right in front of him. His pride can’t take it if he doesn’t do


    anything about it.”


    “Hah!” Other than rolling my eyes, I could not think of any other way to express my current feelings.


    “Oh, right. There will be a few pretty girls at this party whom I had invited. Don’t flirt around, okay?


    Something bad might happen,” warned Remington seriously.


    I pursed my lips, not knowing how to respond to that. Remington’s thoughts were even more ridiculous


    than Spencer’s.


    “How did youe up with such a conclusion? Am I a frivolous woman? Or do I have some ambiguous


    rtionship with a girl?”


    “My friend said that your rtionship with Crystal is the ssic example of a love-hate rtionship. It is


    only because both of you can never get together that your love is so tragically beautiful. After listening


    to her analysis, I thought that she made sense. So, you shouldn’t flirt around randomly. It’s terrifying


    when a woman turns evil.”


    I had nothing else to say.


    After I greeted Spencer, he chatted with me politely with a grim look on his face. Then, he insisted on


    challenging me to a paintingpetition. This time, he wanted topete on speed. As I had no


    objections to it, I told him to wait for a minute while I head to the restroom.


    “It doesn’t matter how much you try to dy it. If you don’tpete with me today, I won’t let you


    leave. Don’t even think of escaping!” challenged Spencer at my back. I was rendered


    speechless. Who’s escaping?


    After I washed my hands, I left the living room and picked up my brush. Suddenly, I heard people


    discussing loudly behind my back, “What’s going on? Isn’t this a party for the prominent figures in the


    art industry? How can someone like her infiltrate this ce? Look at how she’s holding the brush! This


    is a tant insult to the brush.”


    “Harvey, be more polite! I invited Ms. Tanner as my guest.” When Remington heard someone criticizing


    me, he frowned and spoke up on my behalf.


    “A guest? Remington, your taste is bing worse. Back in school, at least you invited pretty girls.


    Why are your preferences so absurd now?” Harvey sauntered into the crowd and noticed that most of


    them were familiar faces. He pursed his lips and continued, “All of you are willing to act as the side


    characters out of courtesy for Remington. However, the main character is downgrading the entire


    party.”


    “Harvey, stop messing around. We’re about topete. Let’s talk after ourpetition. You can say


    whatever you want and it’ll be none of my business!” bellowed Spencer. It was obvious that he felt


    extremely anxious. After hispetition had been interrupted multiple times, he was starting to lose his


    temper.


    “What’s there topete about?” Harvey walked toward the canvas. Seeing how I was still standing


    there, he mocked, “Right, Ms. Tanner? Only elites are present in this party. Don’t you think that it’s


    inappropriate for you to be here?”


    “We can only find out after thepetition. Since you think that I shouldn’t be here, why don’t we have


    apetition too?” I raised my head, feeling all pumped up because of this man.


    This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Perhaps it was because I was holding a brush, I dered arrogantly, “We’ll know who the real deal is


    after testing it out! Why don’t we have a paintingpetition? You can decide on the topic.”


    “Don’t be rash, Yvonne,” shouted Spencer and Remington simultaneously as a worried expression


    crossed their faces. I shook my head at them and smiled reassuringly.


    “Don’t be a sore loser, then. I won’t go easy on you just because you’re a woman,” mocked Harvey.


    While I went to choose my brushes and paints, I asked Remington, “What’s wrong with Harvey? Why is


    he targeting me? We’ve never even met before! Have I offended him?”


    He nced at Spencer standing at the side. When I saw her awkward expression, I got a sudden


    revtion and asked, “Is he a very good friend of Crystal’s?”


    “No, he’s Crystal’s ex-boyfriend.” Remington added, “You shouldn’t have epted his challenge.


    Although he isn’t as famous as us, he’s the strongest amongst us all. Even our teacher has said that


    we’re not as talented as him. If you lose to him, it might be hard for you to make a name for yourself in


    this industry in the future.”
