Lena gazed at them and recalled what Jade had said.
Could it be true? Perhaps there was truly nothing between Elijah and Jacquelin, and Kasey had simply
misunderstood?
"Should I give you credit for my wife's victory?" he quipped, catching Lena off guard. She met his intense gaze as
he tilted her head.
Just as she was about to explain, Kasey stormed off in anger. Elijah followed her, but not before glancing at Lena
fiercely.
She stood there momentarily, her thoughts racing.
Did she somehow offend Elijah today?

Breathing a sigh of relief, Lena made her way to her office. -
Arya visited the Hamertons to deliver the revised comic she had assisted Toph with.
His eyes lit up after feeling down for a few days.
She handed him the draft with a smile. The storyline and the characters had been refined.
"Wow, Arya!" Toph exclaimed. "You're a master of art! No, you're a saint of art! How did you manage this? It's like
my characters have come to life!"
She modestly shook her head. "Your foundation was solid. I only tweaked the colors and details."
"Details make all the difference!" Toph was elated. "Do you think my work is good?"
"Has your comic been published on the website?" she inquired. "What's the reception like?"
"It's beyond my expectations," he admitted, scratching his head. "I have over 100,000 views, and a few publishers
contacted me about publishing it. But I'm wary of scams, so I didn't respond.
"Arya, honestly, your approval means the world to me. You're the expert. Your judgment is more trustworthy than
theirs!"
"I believe your work has great potential," she assured him. "Why not sign a contract with my studio? I'll promote
your comic. What do you think?" "What?"
"I'm serious!" She patted his shoulder. "Have confidence, Toph! Your skills and storyline are excellent. As long as you
maintain regular updates, even if it doesn't go viral, you can still earn money from the comic!"
"Do you really think so?" His voice quivered slightly.

In recent days, he had been feeling guilty about distancing himself from Renee. He yearned to draw to ease his
mood, but Renee's hurtful words lingered in his mind.
'What accomplishments will draw comics bring you? Do you think it will make you successful? You're nothing
compared to your brother!
Those hurtful words resounded in his head, paralyzing his hand—he couldn't even draw a simple line. Despite
gaining some fame on the website, he couldn't bring himself to believe in his skills.
His eyes dimmed. The person who truly believed in him wasn't Renee but Arya.
"Please consider the offer, Toph." Arya chuckled. "I'm not just trying to comfort you. My studio is just starting, and
we don't sign comic artists lightly."
"Do you really think I'm good?"
"Are you a fool?" She smiled earnestly. "You're only good if you believe in yourself. You need the unwavering
confidence that no one can shatter. Why should you care about others' opinions? If you think you can do it, then
you definitely can!"
