Lucille quickly closed the Twitter.
They were divorced now, so his affairs had nothing to do with her.
Even though she thought so, she still felt very sad.
Sure enough, he meant it when he said 'impossible'.
"Ms. Jules, the results are out."
Lucille had just put her phone away when she heard the nurse called her name.
"I'm here." Lucille quickly stood up and went into the room to get the examination results.
The nurse gave her the results of the two tests and said, "Your next appointment is a month later, don't forget."
After she took the results, she looked at the time and went straight to the gallery.
It was not 10.30am yet, but the door of the gallery was open. It was obvious that Zoel had arrived.
Lucille quickly went in. He was looking at the paintings in the gallery with a big- bellied customer and his secretary.
"Mr. Parker, I'm sorry, I'm late."
Although it was not time for work yet, as the customer had arrived, Lucille still apologized unconsciously.
"No, it was me who made an early appointment with Mr. Andrews." Zoel waved his hand. "You can go and change your clothes first."
After Lucille put her bag and jacket in the dressing room and came out, she heard that the customer, Mark Andrews, and Zoel had already chosen the paintings.
"Just these few pieces, and I also want a few small landscape paintings," Mark said.
Zoel heard this and quickly pointed to a small landscape painting in the gallery, asking, "Is this okay?"
"It's too big. I want A4 sized paintings to be displayed at smaller places." Mark shook his head.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Andrews. We don't have that size for the time being, but I can ask the artist to rush a few pieces for you."
"Rush them? When will I get them? I'm opening my business next week. It's okay if you don't have them. I will go somewhere else to buy them." Mark was a little unhappy upon hearing Zoel's words.
"Mr Andrew, it won't be long. How many pieces do you need?"
"Forget it, you don't have a sample that I can look at. If I don't like the outcome, my place would be empty."
At this time, Mark seemed to have decided on buying the paintings from another gallery.
Lucille stood next to him. After listening for a while, she went forward and took a risk to ask, "Mr. Andrews, are.. Are watercolor paintings okay?"
"Watercolor?"
It was only then that Mark noticed her.
"Yes, if you have time, I can draw a piece for you now, and it will only take thirty minutes." When she spoke, she was a little nervous.
She did not know whether it was right or wrong for her to be so rash.
Zoel looked at Lucille with a dissatisfied expression, but now that Mark was leaving, he could only take a risk and he introduced Lucille, "Mr. Andrews, this is one of the special artists in our gallery. Although she is young, her technique is very sophisticated. If you are able to give her thirty minutes, you will definitely be satisfied."
"Thirty minutes is too long. Mr. Andrews has something to do later."
Before Mark could speak, the secretary spoke first.
"Then... What about twenty minutes?" Lucille said nervously.
Any shorter, and it would not be enough time for her to draw.
Mark looked at Lucille. He found that she was young and her palm- sized face was still youthful. Just after saying a few words, her face turned a little red.
He opened his mouth and said, "Fifteen minutes."
"Fifteen minutes..." Lucille was a little hesitant, but she could only take the risk. "Okay, fifteen minutes."
Fortunately, the watercolors were sold at a discounted price, therefore she bought a box of them.
