CHAPTER 395: CHAPTER 395: HE’S JEALOUS 2

Aurelia Shaw looked at her for a moment before following her over.

She pointed at the drawing paper and asked, "What do you think of this painting?"

She looked at the drawing paper. It depicted a garden full of roses with two butterflies intertwined, but outside the courtyard, there was no follow-up, creating a sense of emptiness.

"You didn’t finish it?"

The woman shook her head.

Aurelia pondered for a moment, a smile tugging at the corner of her lips, "It seems like a heavily made-up painting, but it gives off a feeling of void and tragedy. These two butterflies appear to be entwined, but actually... it’s more like one is abandoning the other to fly away, while the other is trying to hold on."

A touch of color and surprise flashed in the woman’s eyes, "Mason Nightshade’s wife is indeed different."

"You’ve received her compliment." Mason stepped forward, standing closely behind her. His suddenly deep voice resonated in her ears, startling her.

Aurelia lifted her beautiful eyes, filled with playful reproach, and glared at Mason Nightshade, whose gaze was fervently fixed on her, his Adam’s apple moving slightly.

Aurelia narrowed her eyes dangerously. This man,

the more he yearned in the past, the more maniacal his love now. Ever since he knew that she had truly returned to their starting point, the heart in his chest hadn’t slowed its beating,

he swallowed hard, knowing that it wasn’t the time yet. For her to fully accept him again, it would take some time. He was willing to wait, willing to temporarily restrain himself for this.

"Victoria rarely praises anyone," he added softly, his voice carrying an unusual huskiness.

Aurelia arrogantly raised her shapely eyebrows, "You know her that well?"

"Don’t overthink it, she’s my cousin."

Aurelia widened her eyes, not having heard of Mason Nightshade having a cousin? But it wasn’t surprising she didn’t know; the Nightshade Family was prominent and their affairs were always shrouded in mystery, never divulged to outsiders.

It’s just that she had truly never heard of Kai Nightshade’s other son before.

Victoria’s gaze shifted knowingly between Mason and Aurelia, a smile understandingly gracing her lips, as she turned to walk inside. "Come in, both of you."

Aurelia’s curious eyes scanned the interior, noticing the Western-style decor, similar to outside. The walls were adorned with large and small oil paintings, and most of the space inside was used for arranging and storing art supplies. Only a large sofa and a coffee table were set in the middle of the living room.

"..." She realized that Mason’s cousin was someone who didn’t manage her personal life well. She probably forgot everything else when she was engrossed in painting, quite similar to Amelina Collins in this respect.

Victoria poured two glasses of water and then directed Mason, "There’s some fruit in the kitchen, go cut it up."

Mason remained still, his gaze unwaveringly fixed on Aurelia.

Feeling a bit uneasy under his gaze, Aurelia glared at him, "Hurry up and go!"

The man immediately stood up and walked toward the kitchen.

Victoria: "..." A grown brother that isn’t worth keeping around.

"We hadn’t seen each other for nearly two years before this. When he suddenly contacted me, I thought it was something serious. It turned out he wanted to ask me to teach you painting." Victoria cradled her glass of water, looking peacefully at Aurelia, "In my memory, my brother has never been so attentive to anyone. He’s always indifferent to people, cold and distant to strangers. When you got married, I was busy and couldn’t attend. I never imagined that in such a short few months, there could be such a big change."
