Chapter 22: The Skilled Restorer and Severed Ties

(Olivia’s POV)

A graceful, refined woman around her thirties entered the private room of the Crescent Moon

Hotel in Riverdale. Her confident stride and elegant posture immediately caught my attention.

Connor’s voice softened as he made the introduction. “Livvy, this is the top–tier artifact

“Do you have any photos of what it looked like before?” she asked, carefully placing the fragments back in the bag.

“Yes, I’ll send them to you,” I replied promptly.

“I’ll have Henry drive you,” I offered, already reaching for my phone.
