Nancy played with Sophie for a while and chatted with Emily.
She didn't stay too long at the Ink Manor before returning to the Imperial Garden with Hailey Smith.
She was mainly worried that if she stayed away too long, Julius Shaw might cause some trouble.
When she got back to the Imperial Garden, Nancy saw Julius Shaw reading in the study.
She anxiously checked Julius's wrist and leg, and only felt relieved when she found no injuries.
Suddenly, Julius reached out and hugged Nancy, saying dully, "I want a portrait too."
Julius has always been someone who never cares about saving face.
If he wants flowers, a portrait, or anything, he will directly ask for it.
Unlike Godfery Shaw, who, no matter what he wants, would only endure it with restraint; if you give it to him, he'd be delighted, if not, he'd never insist.
Nancy softly said in his embrace, "Alright, in a few days it's your birthday, I'll paint a portrait for you as a birthday gift."
Julius tightened his hold on Nancy.
