Chapter 189
After Skylar heard their conversation, her expression remained calm, and she didn’t say anything either She just told them that she could do it.
“Skye, are you sure there’s still a possibility of restoration?” Alexander asked grimly.
Frank turned to look at Skylar too. In fact, he had little confidence.
If even Alexander felt it was difficult, restoring it must almost be impossible. However, he seemed to trust the pretty young
relatively young age Woman in front of him, who didn’t seem capable of undertaking such a task at her
Frank was mentally prepared that his painting couldn’t be saved. Upon thinking that such a precious. heirloom was ruined in his hands, he felt helpless and dreaded facing his ancestors in the afterlife.
To his surprise, Skylar nodded and said, “I can restore it. Give me another half a month.”
Frank was shocked. Alexander was also quite surprised. If this were the first time he met Skylar, he would have no doubt that she was bluffing.
Now, after working with her for some time, Alexander had a good grasp of her character. She wouldn’t simply claim she could do something when she couldn’t. This meant that she was confident about restoring this painting.
Excitedly, he inquired, “Are you sure about this, Skye?”
“Yes, I’m sure. A few years ago, I restored a painting that was even more daunting than this,” Skylar replied.
She thought of the time when Viola would bring back some antiques that were very difficult to restore every time she went off a few years ago. She would bring back items like ancient paintings and porcelain
vases.
Back then, she restored many of those artifacts. Viola trusted her a lot and gave her many opportunities to practice, and she would also guide her carefully from the side.
Alexander felt reassured when he heard this. “Good! Very good!”
Frank asked emotionally, “Does she mean what she said?”
“Rest assured, Frank,” Alexander said with confidence.
Skylar smiled and said, “I will do my best to restore it, but you need to manage your expectations. This painting is too ancient and badly damaged. It’s impossible to restore it to its original state, but I
guarantee that I’ll do my best.”
“That’s great!” Frank nodded repeatedly.
If even Alexander trusted her, what reason did he have to doubt her? Besides, no team other than Alexander’s team would dare to take on this task.

The readers' comments on the novel: My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul
Is the author going to finally portray Skylark as a brave woman who can argue and communicate like a normal person in this real world? Hoping so.......
I don't like this story portraying Skylark's personality as too weak, too naive, Can't even defend herself Like accepting every humiliation from Vera's schemes and injustice without saying anything or doing anything. I wonder who is the protagonist in this novel, Vera or Skylark....
