Game Over No Second Chances

Chapter 147

"What is it?"

Hearing the energy in Wynne's voice, Serena couldn't help but smile.

She sank onto the couch, hugging a pillow against her chest.

Wynne started with a dramatic bout of whining before finally getting to the point.

"I'm restoring an ancient porcelain piece, but I've hit a bit of a wall. One of my colleagues mentioned that your mom had created a series using the same technique. I wanted to ask-do you still have any of those pieces?

"It doesn't have to be a perfect one, even a flawed backup would do. I just need something to practice on before attempting the real thing. I'd rather not botch the restoration and end up ruining a historical artifact."

Then, she sent over two pictures of the porcelain piece in question, along with a document detailing the technique.

Serena actually knew a lot about these.

After a brief moment of thought, Serena said, "I kept a few imperfect pieces from my mom's collection. From the looks of it, I think I have one that's pretty similar- same intricate patterns, same craftsmanship. I can bring it over later if you want to take a look."

"Seriously? Oh my gosh! Nina, you're a lifesaver!"

Wynne squealed with excitement.
