WHY ON EARTH WOULD SHE ASK TO COME HERE? I WAS WORRIED THEY MIGHT TURN US AWAY, BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE AN APPOINTMENT... BUT THEY WERE NICE ENOUGH TO INVITE US INSIDE. I KNEW THAT LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION WOULD COME IN HANDY. OWNER OF GREY ART SUPPLIES OH, HAHAHA. OH MY, YOU'RE SO WELL-PREPARED! AS EXPECTED FROM THE DUCHESS OF BRISTON! BUT THAT LETTER PROABABLY WASN'T NECESSARY... AFTER ALL, WHO'D DARE TURN AWAY THE DUCHESS OF BRISTON?! MY LADY... COULD I ASK WHY YOU ASKED ME TO ACCOMPANY YOU HERE— DUCHESS BRISTON! WE APOLOGIZE FOR KEEPING YOU WAITING. MY NAME IS HENRY NEWMAN, MY LADY. PLEASED... PLEASED TO MAKE YOUR ACQUAINTANCE. MY NAME IS WILLIAM... WILLIAM WALTER. THANK YOU FOR YOUR WARM WELCOME, DESPITE THE SUDDEN NATURE OF OUR VISIT. NO, MY LADY. IT'S AN HONOR TO HAVE YOU HERE! WE'RE HAPPY TO MEET THE RISING STAR OF THE ART WORLD... SHE LOOKS MUCH YOUNGER THAN I WAS EXPECTING... I WONDER WHY SHE CAME OUT OF HER WAY TO VISIT A COUPLE OF PAINTMAKERS. OH. THIS IS SIR JOSEPH STEWART... ...THE BRISTON FAMILY LAWYER. OH...? HOLD ON, COULD THIS PERHAPS BE... ...AN OPPORTUNITY TO SECURE A NEW INVESTOR...?! A COLLABORATION BETWEEN A SCIENTIST AND AN ARTIST! SOME WOULD EVEN CALL YOU POLAR OPPOSITES... ...WHAT AN AMAZING TEAM! HOW WONDERFUL THAT YOU TWO DECIDED TO GO INTO BUSINESS TOGETHER. IT'S ALL THANKS TO THIS GENIUS, RIGHT HERE. NOTHING WOULD HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE WITHOUT HIM. HE'S GOT A GREAT KNACK FOR RECREATING ANY COLOR THAT YOU CAN IMAGINE. WOW! AND I MUST SAY, THAT'S A VERY LOVELY COAT YOU'RE WEARING. IT'S A GREAT RECORD OF ALL THE PASSION AND HARD WORK YOU'VE PUT INTO YOUR PAINTS OVER THE YEARS. OH... UH... THA... YOU... OH, YOU NOW I SEE WHY "WALTER & NEWMAN" WAS ABLE TO ESTABLISH THEMSELVES SO QUICKLY IN THE ART WORLD. I SAW YOUR LATEST PRODUCT AT THE GREY ART SUPPLY SHOP TODAY, AND WAS TRULY IMPRESSED. ESPECIALLY THE WATERCOLORS IN THE GLASS SYRINGE-LIKE CONTAINERS. OH! I SEE YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH OUR LATEST OFFERINGS! YES! MADAM GREY INTRODUCED THEM TO ME, AND I MUST SAY, IT'S NOTHING SHY OF A REVOLUTION. GREAT PORTABILITY TRANSPARENT, TO SHOW OFF THE COLORS AIR-TIGHT, FOR LONGEVITY HAHA, COMPARED TO THE PIG-BLADDER CONTAINERS OF THE PAST, I SUPPOSE IT IS A REVOLUTION! IT ALSO ALLOWS YOU TO MEASURE OUT THE EXACT AMOUNT OF PAINT THAT YOU NEED. SO IT CUTS BACK ON WASTE ED. SO IT CUTS BACK ON WASTE ALTHOUGH... WE'VE GOTTEN A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT HOW FRAGILE THEY ARE... SO I'M NOT SURE... WE CAN CALL IT A TOTAL SUCCESS... YOU IDIOT! THIS IS A GREAT CHANCE TO SECURE A HUGE INVESTOR. DON'T RUIN IT! P-PLEASE EXCUSE BILLY. HE'S BEEN VERY BUSY DEVELOPING OUR NEW PRODUCT... AND HASN'T BEEN GETTING MUCH REST. ANOTHER NEW PRODUCT? YOU SURE WORK FAST! OIL PAINTS CAN'T BE STORED AS SOLIDS... GLASS IS TOO BRITTLE, AND NOT THE SAFEST MATERIAL TO HANDLE, SO I'M HOPING TO— AS SUPPORTERS OF THE ARTS, IT'S OUR DUTY TO PROVIDE ARTISTS WITH THE BEST PRODUCTS WE CAN CREATE. I SEE... IT SEEMS THAT THEY DON'T HAVE ANY INFORMATION ON PAINT TUBES YET. WHICH MEANS... THIS MIGHT BE... ...A CHANCE TO SPEED UP THE PACE OF ARTISTIC INNOVATION! THIS WORLD IS BASED ON FICTION AND NOT ACTUAL HISTORY, AFTER ALL. SO IT SHOULDN'T MATTER TOO MUCH IF I MEDDLE ABOUT A BIT, RIGHT? NOW THAT WE'VE HAD A CHANCE TO TALK... ...IT'S CLEAR THAT I'VE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE. I'M SURE THAT YOU'LL TAKE AN INTEREST IN MY IDEA. COULD I TROUBLE YOU FOR A PEN AND A PIECE OF PAPER? I THINK I MAY HAVE THE ANSWER TO YOUR CURRENT PROBLEM. A FEW MOMENTS LATER TH-THIS IS... A TRULY REVOLUTIONARY IDEA! I CAN'T BELIEVE I NEVER THOUGHT TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING LIKE THIS...!!! YOU'VE ONLY JUST MET US. ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO SHARE THIS IDEA WITH US? YES, BECAUSE I LACK THE RESOURCES TO BRING IT TO LIFE. MY LADY... WE SHOULD'VE GONE TO THE PATENT OFFICE FIRST... A TIN CONTAINER WITH A SCREW-LIKE LID... TIN IS PLIABLE, EASY TO WORK WITH, AND RESISTANT TO CORROSION. IT IS RATHER EXPENSIVE, WHICH IS A DOWNSIDE, BUT IF WE PLACE A BULK ORDER... WOULD YOU HAPPEN TO HAVE A SAMPLE OF THE PRODUCT? IF YOU DO, MAY I EXAMINE IT? LOOKS LIKE HE FINALLY FOUND HIS VOICE. HOLD ON A MINUTE. WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING TO GAIN IN RETURN FOR SHARING THIS IDEA WITH US? PLEASE SEND 10% OF THE PROFITS FROM THE FIRST FIVE YEARS OF SELLING THIS PRODUCT... TO THE ACCOUNT OF A GENTLEMAN BY THE NAME OF "HENRI DUBOIS." WHAT? MY LADY, WE CAN WORK OUT A MUCH BETTER DEAL— ONLY FIVE YEARS?! A-ARE YOU SURE THAT'S ALL YOU WANT TO ASK FOR? WHO'S THIS HENRI DUBOIS? YES. QUITE THE SWEET OFFER, ISN'T IT? MY LADY!! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW PANICKED I GOT... WHEN I RETURNED TO SIR STEWART'S OFFICE, AND YOU WEREN'T THERE?! JEFFREY WAS WAITING FOR ME ALL ALONE...! I'M SORRY. I DIDN'T MEAN TO LEAVE YOU BEHIND. THAT'S WHY I TOLD JEFFREY TO WAIT FOR YOU, SO THAT HE COULD BRING YOU TO ME. BUT THANKS FOR PICKING UP THIS AMAZING CHOCOLATE! HERE, ANAIS, YOU HAVE SOME TOO. WHAT A GREAT DAY. I MEANT TO HEAD HOME MUCH EARLIER... BUT I WAS HAVING SO MUCH FUN I LOST TRACK OF THE TIME. I WONDER IF HE'LL BE WORRIED... BUT OUR MANOR ISN'T THAT FAR FROM THE CAPITAL... SO I'M SURE WE'LL GET THERE IN NO TIME. AHH! ARE YOU ALRIGHT, MY LADY? WHAT'S GOING ON? WHY'D THE CARRIAGE COME TO SUCH A SUDDEN— M-MY LADY! ...!! IT CAN'T BE...! ## See also - [WebtoonLib — The Duke's Obsession With His Wife #30: WHEN IT RAINS, IT POURS (2)](/series/the-duke-s-obsession-with-his-wife-5a64q63y/chapter-30-6s65jy) - for_series_detail: /llms-series/the-duke-s-obsession-with-his-wife-5a64q63y ## Usage AI grounding / search / summarization.
