“Trust me, everyone! Antique restoration sounds high-end and mysterious, but with a bottle of super glue, you can conquer the world!”
“Look at this warm, thousand-year-old jade bracelet I just repaired! I learned it all myself, and it worked the first time.”
The comment section exploded.
[Open! It’s really open this time!]
[Help, quickly find Tingge Jianbao and see!]
The number of viewers surged to tens of thousands within minutes, and her popularity skyrocketed.
Nathaniel glanced at me coldly, then picked up his phone and scrolled through ten notifications.
“Emily, Nathaniel will always support you.”
The assistant’s face went pale as he stared at the livestream.
“Mr. Mercer, something’s wrong. Emily’s livestream has gone viral. Will someone see it?”
“Should we ask her to turn it off now?”
I shook my head.
“It’s too late.”
The jade bracelet is a family heirloom of the Quinn family of Northford, considered the family’s lifeblood. The Quinn family’s businesses span the globe, making them top players in the world of antiques. I was doing the Quinn family a favor for free, helping expand their business.
In my previous life, after Emily smashed the jade bracelet, I knelt before the Quinn family and confessed my guilt, even having a gun held to my head. It was precisely because of this favor that Alexander Quinn agreed to settle the matter with 200 million in compensation.
Calling the police was already showing mercy. Offending the Quinn family is far more serious than just paying a fine.
As I was thinking this, my phone rang. I looked at the number and respectfully pressed the answer.
“Vivian, I saw my bracelet online. Some genius beauty restorer doing a livestream with a thousand-year-old jade bracelet? What’s going on?”
Cold sweat broke out in my palms.
“Alexander, I—”
Before I could finish, Emily snatched the phone away.
“Hello, Alexander! I’m Emily, and I’m the genius restorer you’re talking about!”
“Emily fixed your bracelet for you. Vivian didn’t help at all.”
Alexander’s voice was unmistakable.
“Oh? You call that repair?”
Emily nodded excitedly.
“Yes, yes, how can it not be considered a repair? Little Davenport worked incredibly hard to help Alexander glue the jade bracelet back together.”
There was a long silence on the other end of the line.
“Little Mercer, I want to see the bracelet intact by 2:00 PM. Otherwise… you know the consequences.”
