Chapter 1020: Chapter 1020: This is Mr. Steel’s Work

Joan Lentz snapped back to reality, realizing she had been overly excited, and took a moment to calm down before slowly asking, “Is this a work submitted by a student of your school?”

Winifred Drew explained, “Actually, it’s a female teacher, but she’s even younger than the students, only twenty years old. When I saw this painting, I thought it was very strange. It looks more like the work of a calligrapher who has practiced for decades. I thought the teachers of Libanan University wouldn’t forge, so I didn’t make a fuss and asked Master Uland to take a look at this work.”

Upon hearing that the other party was a twenty-year-old girl, Joan Lentz was stunned for a few seconds, shaking her head quickly. It was impossible for a twenty-year-old girl to have such a level of skill. Even if the other party really had talent, she would have already made a name for herself nationwide and wouldn’t need to participate in these campus competitions.

When Winifred said she wanted to participate in this competition, Joan Lentz did not agree. She should have joined more professional competitions instead of competing with a bunch of amateurs here.

Compared to that, Winifred Drew was only in her twenties as well, and she had made incredible achievements after practicing for more than a decade. If this calligraphy work was really completed by a twenty-year-old girl, wouldn’t the other party be divine?

After a moment of silence, Joan Lentz sneered, “It’s impossible for a young girl to produce such a work! She must have cheated!”

Hearing Master Uland so certain, Winifred Drew smirked with pride. It was indeed impossible for Xaviera Evans to create such a perfect work. She was only twenty, and already an internationally renowned designer, was she going to become a famous calligrapher as well?

At this moment, Winifred Drew was absolutely sure that Evans had someone else write for her. She must have already bought the creator. Since the creator wouldn’t come forward to expose her, she would let someone else become the author of this work.

Winifred Drew switched the topic and asked, “Master Uland, who do you think this work belongs to?”

Joan Lentz, with eyes full of admiration, looked at the work for a while, becoming somewhat immersed, as if she hadn’t seen such a perfect work in years.

Hearing Winifred’s question, he hesitated for a moment before replying, “The lines of the characters are smooth with no trace of ostentation. They are simple but give the viewer a sense of grandeur, like the vast mountains and rivers. The other party must have an open-minded, laughter-filled spirit, someone who is free and easygoing. It’s just that this person’s style is rare, and I can’t think of whose work it is.”

Winifred Drew was speechless, just as she was about to guide Joan Lentz when he suddenly patted his head and exclaimed excitedly, “This must be Mr. Steel’s work!”

Upon hearing this, Winifred Drew couldn’t help but laugh. Her original intention was to guide Joan Lentz to think about Mr. Steel, after all, the style of this work was very similar to his.

Joan Lentz was very sure, “I have seen a similar work at Mr. Steel’s before. I’ll take you to find Mr. Steel and see if this is his work. If someone really took Mr. Steel’s work, he definitely won’t let it go.”

Winifred Drew nodded, a sinister smile passing across her lips.

This Mr. Steel, full name Lance Steel, had an extraordinary status. However, when he was young, he was involved in a scandal about hiring someone to write for him. Although this news had been suppressed, it was discovered by Boyd Drew.

Since he had hired a ghostwriter, it meant that his achievements were not completely genuine. If she gave Lance Steel such a perfect work, he shouldn’t refuse it.

Moreover, with the always fair Master Lentz recognizing this as Mr. Steel’s work, Mr. Steel would have even fewer concerns.

Winifred Drew followed Joan Lentz to Lance Steel’s restroom, and both of them greeted him respectfully, “Mr. Steel.”

Lance Steel glanced at the two, “Ah, little Joan! What brings you here to see me?”

Joan Lentz hurriedly said, “Mr. Steel, this is my niece Winifred Drew. Could you take a look and see if this calligraphy is your work?”

Lance Steel glanced casually, and when he saw the work, he suddenly sat straight up. His body swayed, and greed flashed in his eyes. He looked up at Joan Lentz and then replied arrogantly, “I wanted to change my style before and wrote it casually. How did it end up in your hands?”

Joan Lentz suddenly realized, “No wonder it’s slightly different from your previous style.”

Then, he cleared his throat and explained, “One of the contestants stole your work and submitted it to the Department of Calligraphy and Painting. It was Winifred who happened to pass by and noticed something strange about this work.”
