Romina hadn’t expected to get a job so soon.
It had indeed been a long time since she worked on such a large vase; it would require both time and skill.
Besides, she was planning to start a social media account soon. If she recorded the process of restoring such a large vase, it would definitely attract followers and help her account in the future.
“Sure, take the job for me! Have him send the item here later.”
“Are you planning to work on it at home?”
Elliana looked up curiously, her expression puzzled.
“Yes.” Romina pointed upstairs. “I’m planning to tidy up the attic and use it as my temporary quartz studio. That way, even if I work late into the night, it won’t disturb your rest.”
“Sounds good! I’ll contact him tomorrow and have him deliver the item.”
“Alright.”
Romina nodded gently, then headed up to the third floor. She did a quick cleaning of the attic, and by the time she finished, it was nearly midnight.
Early the next morning, the large vase Elliana had mentioned was delivered to Breeze Vista.
It took a lot of effort for Romina and Elliana to move the vase up to the attic.
It was indeed a major project, but it also sparked Romina’s competitive spirit.
For the next few days, she worked at the wellness clinic during the day and started restoring the vase in the evening. Every day was packed, but she found this kind of life very fulfilling.
For a whole week, she was immersed in this routine. There was no news from Jericho or Joaquin; everything was unusually peaceful.
On the evening of the eighth day of restoring the vase, the client said he wanted to come by and check on the progress.

Since he was an old client and had met her before, she agreed to let him come to Breeze
Vista.
When the client arrived, Elliana was out taking Lina for a walk.
Just as the client was about to leave, the doorbell suddenly rang.
“I’ll go check. Please keep looking…”
“Alright.”
Romina went downstairs and opened the front door. When she saw who was standing there. she was momentarily stunned.
Joaquin stood at the door, hands in his pockets, his posture casual and lazy, exuding a cool. commanding aura.
Romina took a moment to compose herself before asking, “Mr. Bowman? What brings you here so suddenly?”
Joaquin was about to reply when footsteps suddenly sounded from the stairs behind him.
At the same time, a man’s voice rang out: “Romina.”
Hearing the voice, Joaquin looked up to see a man about his height coming down from the second floor.
He had a refined, classical air about him, and his temperament matched Romina’s quite well.
After a week apart, Joaquin hadn’t expected to find another man by her side.
The second floor was all bedrooms…
The client merely glanced at Joaquin, then walked around him toward the door.
Before leaving, he looked back at Romina and said, “I’ll be going now. I’ll come by another day.”
Romina nodded gently and replied with a smile, “Alright.”
The client had just left when his view was blocked by a human wall.
Before Romina could even look up, the man in front of her pulled her into his arms and pressed her against the wall.

He lifted his leg slightly and closed the door behind him.
“Bang-”
The sound was loud, echoing through the entire space.
“Who is he?”
A deep voice came from above Romina’s head.
Romina was pinned against the wall, unable to move.
