Joe pursed his lips and stood up, walking over to the window. The sight overlooked the bustling streets of Jipsburg City and the hustle and bustle of traffic below.

Alexander, standing nearby, was equally astonished. He knew better than anyone how damaged the painting had been originally. Thus, he was even more impressed by Skylar’s skill.

person like her in Jipsburg,” Alexander complimented.

Frank nodded repeatedly. “Yes, you’re right. It’s really hard to find another one like

her. Oh, right. Skye, I’ve investigated the matter we discussed last time.

Upon hearing that everything had been resolved, Skylar smiled. “That’s good to hear.
