Not only was Skylar good at her job, but she was also friendly and kind to the people around her. No one from Skylar’s team disliked her, and it was all because of her beauty, kindness, and capabilities.
“You don’t need to pay me back so soon. Your health is more
important than this. Rest well,” replied Skylar.
Raine was moved. She exclaimed, “Skylar, you’re such a wonderful
person.”
They hadn’t chatted for long before Raine’s husband arrived. Skylar told him about Raine’s condition. Then, she left the hospital to get
back to work.
On the way back to the office, Raine had transferred money to her. She’d given Skylar an extra 500 dollars on top of her medical bills. Raine explained that the extra was for the petrol fees and for Skylar to get her car cleaned.
Skylar arrived at the office half an hour later. As she was about to start work, Caleb sought her out to tell her that the woman who they’d
refused was back.
Skylar couldn’t recall who Caleb was referring to at the drop of a hat.
She asked, “Who’s that?”
People asked them to restore their artifacts on a near–daily basis. Of course, some of the antiques they brought couldn’t be restored, while others weren’t worth repairing. Naturally, they wouldn’t offer their services to these people.

Caleb leaned over and said softly, “She’s the one who asked you to piece together the porcelain shards. She’d also tried to elicit sympathy from my grandfather and attempted to seduce him into
agreeing to her whims. I forgot her name. You said the porcelain. she’d brought was a tainted item.”
A tainted item?
She’d only seen one recently–the porcelain Annabelle had asked them to repair.
Skylar remembered every crack on the porcelain.
Skylar asked, “Why is she here again? Does she have something else
that she wants restored?”
She was somewhat surprised, as she’d just run into Annabelle in the
hospital. Who knew they’d be meeting again now?
Annabelle missed seeing Skylar in the hospital as she had her back
turned to her the entire time.
Caleb snorted before saying, “She’s not coming to talk about
something else. She’s still going on about the porcelain. However, the price she’s offering isn’t low this time.”
He raised two fingers and said, “She’s offering two million.”
Skylar’s expression turned somber. It looked like she valued the
porcelain highly. She figured the porcelain must’ve helped Annabelle
accomplish some of her goals. If not, she wouldn’t be so determined
to get it fixed.
Annabelle was a rare beauty. However, she tended to make the

people around her feel uncomfortable.
“Grandpa refused her. However, she’s set on meeting you. Annabelle
insisted that you might agree to help her for two million.”
Skylar nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll go take a look.”
The two of them headed to Alexander’s office.
Alexander was sitting far away this time. He instructed Annabelle to
place the luggage holding the porcelain pieces at the door.
Anabelle was confused. Why did she feel like Alexander was All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
disdainful of the antiques she’d brought?
However, she’d heard that Alexander had a weird temper, and his behaviors seemed unexplainable by logic. She couldn’t see why he’d
asked her to do so.
She’d recently heard that one of Alexander’s students, Skylar Sullivan, had excellent restoration skills. She could hold a candle to young
Alexander’s prowess.
The last time she’d come, she’d underestimated Skylar.
This time, she came with a simple goal–to offer a high price so Skylar would help her restore her porcelain.
Annabelle believed that two million wasn’t a small sum for Skylar, who’d just entered the industry. Even if her porcelain pieces were almost too shattered for repair, Skylar would probably fix them up
meticulously for the right price.
Once Skylar walked in, Annabelle immediately turned toward Skylar
and said, “Ms. Sullivan.”

Skylar nodded in greeting to Annabelle before saying, “I know why you’re here, Ms. Green. My apologies, I can’t help you with it.”
