Own Fate novel Chapter 341

Alvin, who was worried, let out a slow sigh of relief, and a faint smile graced his lips.

Bowen’s eyes crinkled with delight as he thought, ‘Well done!”

Aubree smiled at Alice. Instinctively. Alice stumbled back two steps. To her, it was as if the Grim Reaper himself had smiled at her, scythe in hand, ready to claim her life.

Alice broke out in a cold sweat.

Carmen’s face turned deathly pale. No one had announced the results, but she knew beyond doubt that she had lost.

Stan’s words were truly an understatement. Aubree’s painting wasn’t just exhibition–worthy; it was more than qualified to be put up for auction.

Percival’s lips trembled as he thought, ‘Did she really paint this? An eighteen–year–old girl? If she can create such a masterpiece at her age, then what does my decades–long career amount to?‘

Aubree smiled as she held out the painting. “Ms. Diamonde, do you like this painting that I gave you?”

Alice thought, ‘D6 I like it?‘

Alice’s hands trembled as she took the painting, smearing wet paint across her fingers. Sharp–eyed onlookers gasped in dismay -this was sheer sacrilege of a masterpiece!

Meeting Aubree’s gleaming, confident gaze, Alice shuddered violently. With a sudden, forceful rip, she tore the painting to shreds. “You won’t get what you want!”

The onlookers winced in shared agony. She shouldn’t have torn it. If she didn’t want it, she could have given it to them. They’d treasure it.

Stan nearly cried out. If it weren’t for the setting, he would have physically intervened to stop such a masterpiece from being destroyed. Yet even in his dismay, his gaze toward Aubree burned with even greater admiration.

Bowen thought to himself, ‘If I didn’t know Stan’s admiration for Aubree is just about her talent, I’d be itching to hit him.’

Alice tore up the painting, but Aubree just shrugged, saying nonchalantly, “The facts speak for themselves. I’ve already won.”

And not just this round, she thought.

The crowd was shocked. They wondered, ‘Is Alice really Aubree’s mother and not an enemy? Didn’t the Wilson family supposedly go to great lengths to find this biological daughter?‘
