Even After Death

"For now, you need proper rest. You can look into your background

anytime, so don't overwork yourself."

"My head is hurting a lot. I'm worried that I might forget it soon. Yale,

please.”

Soon, Yale asked someone to get Molly a sketchbook and some

colored pencils. Molly was the most skilled with watercolor and oil

paints.

When Yale wasn't with her, painting was the only thing that could heal

her.

She tirelessly immersed herself in painting, and because of that, she

produced many amazing artworks.

Unlike her appearance, her art style was quite rugged. When Tatiana

saw the unique art style, a look of surprise appeared on her face.

"Could it be that you're Milly herself?"

Milly was internationally famous. Eight years ago, her work "Against the

Wind" stunned the crowd. Going against all odds, it won the Golden

Painting Award.

All the artwork Milly used to participate in art competitions was sold in

auctions at high prices.

"Against the Wind" had the highest collectible value, and Tatiana had

bought it at an auction for 30 million dollars.

It was quite a high price for a new painter who had just made an

appearance. Tatiana didn't only come from a wealthy family, but her

grandmother's family was also a family of scholars.

Tatiana's mother was a famous modern painter as well.

So, Tatiana was quite skilled in the arts from a young age. Usually, she

spent her time listening to music or enjoying artwork at art exhibitions.

Back then, when Tatiana was invited to be the award presenter for the

Golden Painting Award, she was quite fond of Milly.

She even wanted to get close to her idol, but Molly didn't show up. Only

her assistant was there to receive the award in her stead.

Since then, Milly seemed to have disappeared. There were no longer

any artworks from Milly. Tatiana always thought that it was a great pity

that a new painter with such potential would disappear like that.

Even today, the painting was still hanging in her room. It served as a

constant reminder.

Life was a constant struggle upward. Once you had stepped onto a

path, there was no longer any chance for you to regret it.

Molly's face turned red. "Mrs. Heath, you know about the alias I use to

enter competitions?"

"Not just that, I've even bought your artwork. It's a small world, isn't it? I

even tried to ask around for information on you. I can't believe I get to

see you again so many years later.”

"Thank you for your approval, Mrs. Heath. I was just painting for fun."

Molly was talking, but her hands never stopped moving. In just a few

minutes, she completed a sketch of a person's face.

The old woman in the sketch looked very rough, and she had a sinister

look on her face. Even though it was only a sketch, she gave off a

vicious air.

"This is my grandmother.”

Then, Molly sketched out more faces and a picture of the village.

Yale thought about it earnestly. "A small fishing village by the sea. It's

quite difficult to look for the village based on these clues alone. Molly,

are there any more buildings?"

"Yes. I'll sketch them out for you, Yale."

Molly sketched a reservoir. She was about to draw more, but she didn't

seem to be in great health.

“You should stop drawing and rest for a bit. I have some soup for you. I

made it yesterday, and it's chicken noodle soup. Try it." Tatiana found it

to be a pity as she took the stationery from Molly's hands.

"Thank you, Mrs. Heath."

"Come on, I said that you don't have to be so polite around me. Child,

I'm sincerely fond of you. If I had a daughter like you, I'd be so happy.

"Would you like to be my goddaughter? I can take care of you in the

future.”

Molly was aware of Yale's hatred toward the Heath family. So, even if

she liked Tatiana a lot, she didn't dare to say yes.

"It's okay, I won't force you. You can take your time to think about it."

Yale brought Molly's sketches with him as he went to talk to his

assistant. "It shouldn't be hard to find fishing villages with a reservoir.

Go and look into it right now.”

As the sky gradually turned bright, the assistant came back with good

news. "Mr. Kingston, we found it. It's Mound Village. The reservoir and

many of its buildings match the ones in Ms. Molly's sketches!"
