Chapter 272
When they heard from Paul that Rita had been here a long time ago, they all immediately turned
around excitedly and looked around.
“Isn’t Rita Cara? I heard Cara is a young girl, and Cara happens to be good at restoring cultural relics.”
“How is it possible? Cara can only help Charlie with her skills. How could she be Rita?”
“That’s right. Cara doesn’t deserve to be compared to Rita.”
Hearing the remarks, Cara almost lost her temper, but she could only try her best to maintain a gentle
and generous image before others as if nothing had happened.
Charlie on the side suddenly thought of something. He suddenly turned his head to look at Ashley in
shock. His eyes widened to the extreme, full of disbelief.
He ensured Cara was not Rita.
In that case, only one had left.
As if to confirm his guess, Paul corrected them dissatisfied. “Stop guessing it. Rita has nothing to do
with Cara. They have nothing to do with each other.”
After speaking, Paul walked up to Ashley and introduced her lou with honor.
“Ashley is Rita, and many of you want to meet her. It’s an honor National Museum to invite her to
participate in the restoration of ancient painting.”
Ashley smiled brightly, “You flatter me. It is a rare opportunity to participate in the restoration of such a
famous ancient painting.”
Paul waved his hands repeatedly. “I didn’t flatter you. You can identify cultural relics and restore them.
Many of us are looking forward to meeting you.”
Ashley turned out to be Rita.
Charlie couldn’t accept the reality.

Charlie swayed and almost stumbled. He stared in Ashley’s direction His lips trembled with shortness
of breath and he didn’t want to believe the
fact.
However, Paul’s praise of Ashley and his personal verification showed Ashley was Rita, whom he
longed for but never met.
How could it be possible?
His favorite Aurora painting. Territory, was painted by Ashley.
Rita, whom he had always wanted to meet, was also Ashley.
Ashley hated the members of the Ramos family so much that she refused to sell Territory to him and
even refused to meet him.
At this moment, Cara was stunned and confused, and her expression froze all of a sudden.
Could Ashley restore cultural relics?
Could Ashley be Rita, who became popular some time ago?
She lost to Ashley again this time.
She got beat by Ashley again.
Cara was expressionless but stared at Ashley with resentment, revealing for the first time her hidden
ferocity and viciousness.
The other restorers in the room all gathered around Ashley enthusiastically.
“It turns out you are Rita, Ms. Ramos. Mr. Walker told us about your porcelain repairing techniques
yesterday. How amazing it is!”
“Actually, we should involve you in our restoration plan. As a result, the painting was not restored, but
destroyed.”
“Tintended to invite Ms. Ramos, but Charlie said she had no idea about. restoration and treated her as
a troublemaker.”
“Can’t Rita restore cultural relics? By contrast, Charlie i
is inferior to Rita.”
“Well, the painting Charlie and Cara damaged has to be repaired by Ms. Ramos. But the damage to the
painting is so serious. Can it be repaired?”
Hearing this, Charlie lowered his head in shame.
Chapter 272
He arrogantly believed Ashley couldn’t restore cultural relics and event looked down on Ashley.
But the reality hit him hard.
Henry walked up to Ashley with admiration in his eyes. “Ashley, you’re Caleb’s granddaughter, and also
Rita, who helped the police catch the culprit for reselling a bronze statue some time ago. You made a
great contribution last time.”
Ashley smiled politely, “You flatter me.”
Her graceful and calm image made Henry admire her more. He hurriedly pulled Ashley to the damaged
ancient painting and asked, “Take a look at it. This ancient painting is seriously damaged. Can it be
restored?”
After Henry finished speaking, the other restorers in the room couldn’t help but hold their breath and
concentrate.
It was definitely impossible for them to restore this ancient painting.
They could only place their hope on Ashley, but they wondered if Ashley could make it.
Paul sighed heavily and frowned, “I dare not hide it from you, Mr. Anderson. Destroying ancient
paintings due to improper operation during the restoration of ancient paintings is a serious act and may
cause irreparable consequences.”
Henry put his hands behind his back and glanced at Charlie and Cara with stern eyes.
Cara felt frightened and subconsciously clenched her clothes with her fingers.
Charlie didn’t even dare to utter a word now.
Ashley stared carefully at the damaged areas of the ancient painting. Paul saw the scene and couldn’t
help but request. “Mr. Anderson, Ms. Ramos’ skills in repairing cultural relics are superb, but this

painting is seriously damaged. If it cannot be repaired, I hope you don’t blame her.”
Henry snorted loudly, “I don’t have to blame her. I’ll only hold those responsible accountable.”
As a soldier, Henry looked tough. When he got furious, no one could

bear his anger with equanimity.
Charlie was terrified and didn’t dare to respond.
Cara feared to take such serious consequences, which was why she shifted the responsibility to him.
If he had trusted Ashley and cut off contact with Cara that day when he overheard the truth at the
corner of the corridor, none of this would have happened today.
Charlie felt extremely regretful. He stared at Ashley nervously,
wondering if she could restore this ancient painting with confidence.
He knew all the restorers here, and none of them were capable of restoring the painting.
Ashley had become his only hope now.
Joseph could read Charlie’s mind through his expression and sneered disdainfully, “You have no
responsibility. When you get into trouble, your estranged sister is here to make it up for you. How
ridiculous it is!”
Charlie’s face blushed for a moment, and he was ashamed, daring not to meet others’ eyes.
Ashley had severed ties with the Ramos family a long time ago and had nothing to do with them. He
actually hoped Ashley would resolve the mess for him..
Moreover, when he witnessed Ashley being abused and humiliated by the Ramos family before, he
ignored it and never helped Ashley once.
Even if Ashley turned around and left here indifferently now, he deserved it.
