NovelUSAChapter 345: Jacob's reaction left everyone utterly perplexed. Glances were exchanged, confusion painted on every face. Kalel, anxiety etched across his features, implored, "Mr. Mason, please, say something!" Typically, Jacob would have responded to Kalel with deference. However, at that moment, he seemed disconnected, his attention unwaveringly focused on Marissa. Suddenly, with a burst of enthusiasm, he exclaimed, "Master!" Taking a few eager steps forward, Jacob grasped Marissa's hands. “Master Only! Meeting you is the honor of a lifetime! I am your devoted fan." The group was astounded. Why on earth was Jacob calling the unremarkable Tiffany "Master Only"? Kalel's shock mirrored the group's. He looked from Jacob to Marissa and back, his words faltering. "Mr. Mason, could you repeat that?" LAST CHAρTeя$ in galFeeling uncomfortable with her hands in Jacob's grasp, Marissa coughed awkwardly and pulled away. Surveying the bewildered faces around her, she found a hint of amusement in the absurdity of the situation.

Still charged with excitement, he clarified to Kalel, "Mr. Sugden, the person before you, Miss Tiffany Nash, is indeed Only!" Everyone's shock deepened. What?! Was Tiffany actually the legendary Only in the art world? Disbelief was evident as eyes widened around the hall. How could this be conceivable? Everyone had pegged Tiffany as hopelessly incompetent. How could such a person be a legendary artist? No, this revelation was utterly implausible. They would not accept it, not even under the most extrcircumstances! As silence engulfed the hall, Aelfric's expression turned contemplative, his gaze fixed on Marissa. Derek, overwhelmed, simply stared at her, unable to process the information. Marissa, that village girl, was the esteemed Only? It sounded preposterous! Jacob was surely mistaken. That had to be the explanation! It reminded him of the twhen Aelfric nearly confused Marissa for Riss. Surely, this was an equally grave mistake.
Wesson, seated in his wheelchair, swallowed hard, his eyes locked on Marissa. This revelation, if true, would render his decision to break off their engagement not just regrettable but disastrously foolish. It would be akin to discarding a treasure trove.
The Clifford family was deeply involved in the calligraphy and painting sectors. Possessing an artist of Only's stature could elevate their business to unprecedented heights in the industry.
Melinda and Chloe, observing from afar, were similarly astounded. They struggled to grasp the reality of the situation. "This can't be true!" Melinda blurted out, her voice tinged with disbelief.

Shock permeated not only among the onlookers but also within the Nash and Sanchez families. They stared at Marissa, their expressions a mix of confusion and disbelief, as the world around them seemed to warp into a surreal tableau. Particularly flabbergasted were Sansa and Ayla. When they heard Jacob's claim, their jaws dropped open, their faces the picture of incredulity.
Silence hung in the air briefly before Ayla leapt to her feet, her voice filled with disbelief. "No, this is impossible! be Mr. Mason, you must be mistaken. How could Tiffany possibly be Only? She's been nothing but a disappointment to the Nash family for over two decades. There must be serror!"
Sansa, too, could not contain her shock. She yelled, "Yes, you're m definitely mistaken! X've watched her grow, I know her capabilities. If she's Only, then I might as well be a puppy."
Yet, their cries were lost in the commotion. Attention had turned to Jacob. Kalel stood trembling, a mix of excitement and confusion painted across his face. He glanced between Marissa and Jacob, his voice faltering as he spoke. “Mr. Mason, my years weigh heavily on me-my hearing is not what it used to be, nor is my mind as sharp. Could you kindly repeat your earlier statement for clarity?"
