On her first day with Norman’s team, Aurelia stepped into the building and was promptly welcomed by Norman’s assistant, Owen Summersby.
He efficiently guided her through the initial onboarding procedures, which proved to be straightforward and swiftly concluded.
Subsequently, Owen led her to meet Norman himself.
Norman was meticulously cleaning a piece of bronzeware upon their arrival, fully immersed in his task.
He was so focused on what he was doing that he remained oblivious to Aurelia and Owen’s presence.
Owen discreetly signaled to Aurelia, prompting her to maintain silence,
Aurelia knew that absolute concentration was needed when handling antiques; any mistake could prove costly. What surprised her, however, was Norma on approach despite his age and expertise.
Her attention was drawn to the intricate inscriptions adorning the bronzeware, indicating its likely origin from the Bronze Agc.
She gazed on, almost entranced, feeling as though the bronze artifact was unraveling its past life before her very eyes, from its initial forging to its event
It dawned on her that this was a recently unearthed treasure.
She was aware that Norman’s team often collaborated with the national archaeological team.

As Norman raised his gaze, he caught sight of Aurelia standing beside Owen.
Immediately, he set down the tool he had been holding.
With a cheerful smile, he approached Aurelia. “Can you discern the age of this bronzeware?”

“I didn’t have a mentor. I learned everything from an elderly woman since childhood; she had a vast collection of antiques.” It was only then that Aurelia remembered that Hannah hadn’t taken her on as an apprentice, but rather
Norman didn’t ask any further questions and instead said, “Since I’m not fully acquainted with your capabilities, I can’t assign a specific task to you. How team. See if you can restore it.”This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Owen’s eyes nearly popped out of his skull. What the heck? Why did Old Mr. Gardner assign Ms. Shaw the hardest task straight away?/

Having recently joined the team, Aurelia wasn’t experienced yet. This daunting task seemed quite challenging– wouldn’t it intimidate her? After all, having a captivating beauty like her on their team was a rare occurrence. Owen certainly didn’t want her to be scared
“Very well, I’ll give it a shot,” Aurelia agreed without the slightest hesitation, her tone sounding as if she had just consented to something mundane.
Owen stood in disbelief as he observed her reaction.
Though he hadn’t been part of Aurelia’s interview process, he had heard from his peers that she had left an indelible impression.
In fact, her skills surpassed those who had spent years under Norman’s tutelage.

Yet, when he first saw captivating Aurelia, he momentarily forgot how his coworkers described the girl.
He recalled their advice: never judge a book by its cover. In that moment, he realized he had indeed made that very mistake.
Norman nodded with approval. Chad has finally done something right. His taste in women is not bad. I want her as my granddaughter–in–law!
Even if her attempt at restoring the painting fell short of perfection, it mattered little to Norman. Joining his team would afford her unparalleled exposure t
During lunchbreak, Aurelia went to the hospital.
She didn’t cook in the morning and had croissants instead, so she found a restaurant where she bought some oatmeal and donuts.
Meanwhile, Chad lounged in bed, engrossed in a game.
Aware that it was Aurelia’s first day on her new job, he figured she might not have time to visit him.
Thus, when he caught sight of her, a rush of joy surged through him, almost bringing tears to his eyes.
“You’re finally here!” exclaimed Chad as Aurelia entered.
Aurelia glanced at her wristwatch before setting the lunch she had purchased in front of Chad. “Are you hungry? Weren’t your family members here to ke

Though the meal was simple, Chad enjoyed it since it was delivered by Aurelia.
“Today’s your first day, right? How’s the adjustment going? Anyone giving you a hard time?” Chad inquired.
“No, the working environment at Old Mr. Gardner’s team is fantastic. I’m really enjoying it and settling in smoothly.” Aurelia replied.
Chad nodded, feeling relieved. If Norman dared to give Aurelia a hard time, he vowed to settle the score

After spending roughly twenty minutes at the hospital, Aurelia left since she needed to complete Norman’s assignment as quickly as possible,
“Along her journey, she received a call from Matthew.
“I drop by to pick you up at five this afternoon, sound good?” he inquired.
“Sounds perfect. See you then,” Aurelia confirmed.
Curious about her off–duty hours, Aurelia approached Owen, finding out that they typically concluded work at four– thirty. Norman’s team maintained a considerate approach to working hours, ensuring a balanced schedule.
However, there were occasions that demanded overtime, particularly during excavation projects. In such cases, they could work extended hours, someti
After ending the call with Matthew, Aurelia received a WhatsApp voice message from Nancy.
“Aurelia, I’ve come across some juicy gossip. It seems that Matthew has gotten married. A childhood friend of mine who works at City Hall told me about
As one of the parties involved in the gossip, Aurelia felt somewhat guilty and embarrassed.

After listening to the string of voice messages from Nancy, Aurelia found herself momentarily speechless.
She hoped she could tell Nancy that “Matthew’s wife” was already privy to the situation.
Though not necessarily heartbroken, she felt remorseful and uncomfortable at inadvertently becoming entangled in someone else’s relationship.
Before starting her car, she replied to Nancy, “How many couples like you and Justin truly exist in this
