Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 273

Ashley carefully examined the damaged painting and then looked up.

Henry anxiously asked, “How is it? Can it still be salvaged?”

Paul, Charlie, and the other restorers in the room all looked at Ashley with nervous anticipation.

They prayed silently, ‘She can do it!”

If it couldn’t be restored even with Rita, Caleb’s granddaughter’s help, this painting would be ruined!

It would be a huge loss for the world of artifacts.

Ashley looked at the damaged Auburn Symphony. It was a painting that Caleb had loved during his lifetime, and it was also going to be showcased at the state banquet next week.

Both personally and professionally, it held great significance.

Ashley looked up at Henry and said, “The restoration process will be a bit tricky and time-consuming.”

Upon hearing this, a look of unrestrained delight appeared on Henry’s dignified face. “So you can restore this painting, right?”

Ashley nodded slightly.

Paul, relieved to receive Ashley’s confirmation, finally relaxed his t posture. “The damage to this painting is severe, so it will definitel time. We are already grateful that you are willing to help restore

The other restorers were overjoyed. “Ms. Ramos, it’s no problem if takes time. We’ll wait here patiently, and we can also learn from you techniques!”

“Yes, Ms. Ramos, if you need any assistance, just let us know!”

“That’s right, we are ready to help anytime!”

Ashley smiled, “Alright, I understand.”

Charlie looked at Ashley, lost in thought. He heard that she was willing to restore the painting and felt like crying.

But he never arrogantly thought that Ashley did for him.
