The entire painting circle checked the announcement multiple times. It was claimed that Mr. Lambert and the three greatest painters worldwide would attend as well!
Violet was indeed the most famous painter in this circle. She was gorgeous, smart, knowledgeable, and came from a respectable family background. Not to mention that she is the most outstanding disciple of Mr. Lambert; people envy her! Her mailbox was soon overflowing with messages of admiration.
Violet was pleased by all the messages and started to send emails to the three distinguished painters. As expected, they did not accept the invitation but said tactfully, "I will attend if I am available." However, Violet was confident that as long as her teacher invited them on behalf of her, undoubtedly they would attend.
Just when she was about to give Mr. Lambert a call, her mailbox was crowded with messages. "Mrs. Yarbrough, have you seen Mr. Lambert’s statement? Didn’t you say that he would attend your exhibition?" "Mrs. Yarbrough, are you sure that Mr. Lambert is attending?" "Mrs. Yarbrough, are you having any issues with your teacher?" What statement are they talking about? What does this have to do with my exhibition?
Violet hurriedly checked her Twitter, only to find out that her teacher made a statement not long ago, "Everyone! I appreciate your support on my journey. Due to my body's health issues, I will no longer attend any activities in the future. Thank you!"
Violet was shocked! She had just promoted her exhibition on Twitter, and Mr. Lambert posted his statement right after! She felt like someone had slapped her in the face, and she felt horrible. Her eyes turned red. Why did Mr. Lambert do this to me? She called him immediately.
In fact, Mr. Lambert was clueless about Violet’s publicity advertisement for her exhibition when he asked David to make his statement. He would postpone the schedule if he knew. He was indeed a good teacher and never treated Violet badly. Lawrence answered the call, and he did not expect to be questioned by Violet.
Her voice was aggressive, "Mr. Lambert, why do you do that to me? You refused to help me and have made me look bad now! I am aware that you are disappointed in me because of what happened with Mr. Crawford, but you can’t just treat me this way, right?"
Lawrence frowned. How dare Violet act so impolite just because of the statement I just posted? He hung the call on her.
David realised something was off; he checked Twitter and got the answer. He showed Lawrence his phone and said, "Dad, Violet had just promoted her exhibition, and she said that you would be attending it. Shall we make another statement to explain this situation?"
Lawrence was stunned as he realised there was a misunderstanding between them. He snorted, "There isn’t a need to do so." He left in his wheelchair.
