Chapter 659 Who Is Tucker?

“Do you know her? If you don’t know her, don’t judge her here. Is this what an artist should do?”

No one thought that Mollie would turn against them for Melissa. This undoubtedly aroused many

people’s dissatisfaction.

“Ms. Timothy, although your painting won a prize, you can’t be so arrogant, right? There are so many

seniors here who are more experienced than you. Aren’t you afraid of being isolated?“

Melissa felt a little shocked when the people around threatened Mollie.

Melissa didn’t expect that Mollie had won such a prize. She had a certain level of prestige in the art

world.

But standing up for Melissa this time might bring no good results to Mollie.

Thinking of this, Melissa worriedly pulled Mollie’s hand. “It doesn’t matter. I’m fine.”

“No.”

Mollie pouted and protected Melissa behind her. “Melissa is my good friend. Have you never thought

about her feelings or mine when you treat her like this?”

These words led to bystanders’ heated discussion.

“Ms. Timothy, although it has nothing to do with us who you make friends with, we still advise you to

think twice about making friends with her.

Otherwise, you won’t know when she’ll cheat on you.”

The people around responded in unison. Everyone looked down on Melissa because she was a

businesswoman.

“You don’t know anything and just talk nonsense here. Some nonsense remarks on the Internet are not

something to believe for a member of the art world like you.”

They didn’t think that Mollie would support Melissa to such an extent. They felt even more dissatisfied.

“I advise you to stand by. As a businesswoman, Melissa should feel honored to attend the gathering.

Your support of her was disrespectful to us.”

Everyone nodded. Mollie was unable to change their thoughts.

Some people simply disliked Melissa. They wanted to see her make a fool of herself and make

everyone laugh at her. They’d like to see her humiliated. After all, outstanding people were always

envied.

They hated it when someone helped Melissa and spoke up for her. They only wanted to see Melissa

make a fool of herself. A man called Tucker Heyton was particularly envious of Melissa.

He wanted to challenge Melissa.

He had some talent but wasn’t very talented. He had big ambitions but never spent much time on

painting, so he didn’t make much progress.

Tucker was very angry, but he still had manners. After all, he could not show a bad side in front of so

many people.

“Hello, my name is Tucker Heyton.’ He put on a professional smile and stretched out his right hand.

Melissa hesitated for a moment. She did not know Tucker at all. But she still politely stretched out her

right hand and said, “Nice to meet you.”

“I’ve admired you for a long time. I always wanted to find a chance to compete with you in painting, but

I never found a chance. Now that many people can witness our competition, I wonder if you’re willing.”

Tucker deliberately raised his voice, causing everyone to look in their direction.

Melissa glanced at Tucker and said gently, “I’m afraid this occasion is not proper. We will have plenty of

opportunities later on. We are guests and should respect the host. Don’t you think so?

‘1 think we’d better choose another day.” After saying that, Melissa ignored him and turned to look at

her work.

Melissa roughly understood Tucker’s purpose. She would not be afraid to compete. She just felt that

this occasion was not suitable, and she didn’t like so much attention.

After all, she liked to keep a low profile. Melissa would be in the limelight wherever she went, and she

had no choice.

Tucker was speechless for a moment when he heard Melissa’s rejection. She felt that Melissa was

afraid and forced Melissa to compare today.

“Ladies and gentlemen.” Everyone turned to look at Tucker. “I wonder if everyone would be willing to

watch me compete with Melissa. I believe that everyone wants something fun.”

The crowd cheered and pointed at them. “Yes, I heard that Melissa is very talented. I also want to see

Melissa paint.”

They all wanted to see how Melissa would respond. “This is going to be interesting.”

‘Thanks for your attention. Then I will order someone to prepare the things, Ms. Eugen.” Tucker

deliberately led the topic back to Melissa.

Tucker knew how to use public opinion. If Melissa didn’t agree, she would appear inferior to him.

What was Melissa afraid of? Besides, these people liked to watch the show. Didn’t artists prefer

working alone? Why did their eyes light up when they heard there would be a competition? Melissa

was speechless.

“Alright.” Melissa only answered one word.

‘Then please give us a theme of the painting,” Tucker said to the crowd. He was very happy now.

The onlookers added, “It’s a rainy day. Why not use the rain as the theme? Then, we won’t make any

requests and allow you to freely paint.”

Melissa nodded. The theme suited the weather and the time was just right.

“Then please wait.” Tucker was determined to win.

When the equipment was ready, they sat down, set the time, and began painting.

In the first ten minutes, Tucker confidently drew the painting, but Melissa did not start painting. She was

just thinking about something. To outsiders, she was staring at the white paper in a daze.

Everyone looked at Melissa and felt that she was useless. “What? It’s been ten minutes and she still

hasn’t painted a stroke. What is she doing?”

When Tucker heard other people’s whispers, he almost laughed out loud.

However, Tucker had to show a calm appearance now. After all, he had to act a bit more mysterious.

Painting required full attention. Tucker couldn’t let his mind be filled with these messy ideas, so he

concentrated on painting.

If there hadn’t been a curtain between them, Tucker would have found out what Melissa was doing.

“Come! Melissa finally started.” Hearing this, everyone looked toward Melissa. NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Melissa thought the painting was a more private thing and didn’t need others’ watching. After all, it

would disrupt her. But there was no other choice now. Anyway, she had painted with more people

looking at her before.
