Bonnie noticed Orson's thoughtful expression and knew what was bugging him. She advised, "Don't overthink it. I'll still show you spointers, even though I can't accept you as my apprentice. Technically, it's the sdeal without the title." Orson agreed, thinking, 'It's crucial to keep all the benefits within the family.

Meanwhile, Harold and the other two Shepards continued to look for Kieran but still failed. Trina's brows furrowed as she said, "It's been forever now. Where's Master Kieran? Did the manager get the wrong information?" Harold looked at Bailey, who was still sitting at the reception desk. The latter was sweating as he looked around, nervous and distressed.
Harold remarked, "Just look at how nervous the manager is. Do you think he's mistaken? Good things cto those who wait, so let's wait." Yolanda nodded. "You're right. We must meet Master Kieran today. If she graces us with one of her paintings, our family's status will soar inthe high society circle. If that happens, one of the head honchos may want to collaborate with us." Since the older couple said so, Trina thought she should zip it. "Okay, I'll do as you say, Grandma and Grandpa." Yolanda looked at her gratefully. "You're the best grandchild anyone could have." A moment later, the older woman saw something out of the corner of her eyes, and her heart dropped. "What's wrong, Grandma?" Trina was bewildered. Then, she followed her grandmother's gaze and looked at the hallway. Trina couldn't explain it, but a deep sense of fear rose within her chest when she saw Bonnie.
