Chapter 397:

Alicia hesitated for a moment, not offering an immediate response.

She replied, “I’ll check my schedule to see if I have any free time tomorrow.”

Blake reassured her with a warm smile, “No need to worry.

Just let me know when you’re available, and I can take Ray with me to treat you to a meal.” His tone was polite yet firm, leaving Alicia with little room to decline his invitation.

Blake continued, “During my last visit to the gallery, I noticed that you were looking for a restoration expert.”

Alicia’s eyes widened in surprise at his words.

“Mr.

Langstaff, could you please clarify what you mean by that?”

Blake smiled confidently.

“I have some knowledge in that area.

If you haven’t found a suitable candidate yet…”

Sensing that he might not be convincing enough, Blake decided to offer more insight into his expertise.
