Chapter 1401: Chapter 1401: Is he going to kill to silence? Chapter 1401: Chapter 1401: Is he going to kill to silence? “I wouldn’t say I’m an expert, I merely have a deep love for it,” Fiona Reiser humbly remarked.
Wayne Reiser chuckled, “Fiona has had a fondness for antique book restoration since she was a child, hence she devoted some time to learn the art systematically. If Mrs. Mamet is interested, she could chat with Fiona.”
Xaviera Evans straightened her back, a faint flicker of a smile appearing at the corner of her mouth, “I happen to have an ancient, damaged painting that was passed down by my grandfather. Given the painting’s immense value, I haven’t dared to entrust its restoration to just anyone. Would Miss Reiser be willing to give it a try?”
A slight tremor passed through Fiona’s heart, but there was no outward change in her expression, “Of course.”
“It’s getting late, Caleb, we should take our leave now. See you in a few days,” Wayne Reiser said, rising to leave.
Fiona couldn’t resist a quick glance at Caleb Mamet, a trace of regret in her eyes. She suppressed her emotions and smiled at Xaviera, “Xaviera, on the day of the cultural relics event, you can bring the painting. Even if I can’t guarantee a successful restoration, I’m confident that the many experienced professionals present would be able to assist.”
“In that case, thank you in advance, Miss Reiser,” Xaviera answered nonchalantly.
After Wayne Reiser and Fiona had left and seated themselves in the car, Wayne chuckled contentedly, “Fiona, you performed well today. If you really can help Xaviera restore that painting, it would be a great favor. She would hardly be able to hold past grudges against us then.”
“Try to befriend Xaviera, but not too intimately. Maintain a fine balance. Once Xaviera gets into trouble, no one will suspect you.”
Fiona acknowledged quietly.
Calculations filled Wayne’s eyes, “Fiona, remember that there are no perfect plans. Your task is to manipulate people’s emotions. When Xaviera gets into trouble, shed a few tears and no one will suspect you. Because if you are truly heartbroken, how could you possibly harm Xaviera?”
Back then, that’s how he eliminated all obstacles, becoming the biggest beneficiary himself. Naturally, there were suspicions, but who would believe that he could harm his own child?
Eventually, the voices of suspicion faded with time, and now no one was recalling the past anymore.
Wayne looked at Fiona, “I initially planned for Todd to marry Xaviera, but I never expected her to end up marrying Caleb. However, it’s not too late.”
“We’ve obtained the address of Doctor Faces. We can send someone to kill her now. Once she is dead, you will effectively become the rightful Doctor Faces.”
A triumphant smile spread across Fiona’s face. She knew her father had bought off some master restorers of ancient paintings. Once Doctor Faces was dead, those people would surface to validate her identity.
Watching Wayne and Fiona’s retreating figures from the living room, Xaviera looked at Caleb and asked, “You always say Wayne Reiser isn’t a good person, but I think he’s not too bad.”
“Oh, how so?” Caleb curved his lips into a smile.
Xaviera explained, “When I was about to look up who intercepted my invitation, Mr. Reiser showed up at my door informing me he was the one who had done it, saving me a lot of trouble. Isn’t that thoughtful of him?”
A soft laugh escaped Caleb’s lips, a distinct coldness lingering in his laughter.
The next moment, Xaviera was clenching her teeth in anger, “Dared to intercept my invitation? Even asking for my address? Are they planning to kill me to silence me?”
Originally Xaviera had been focused on taking revenge on Jacob Powell, but since Jacob had not come to Libanan with Robert Powell, and instead Wayne Reiser had showed up, she decided to deal with the Reiser family first!
A cold gleam filled Xaviera’s eyes, “Originally, I was only interested in the ‘Prose of the Oblivion River’, but now this event is something I absolutely must attend!”
At that time, all the experts in antique book restoration had already arrived in Libanan, and a conference was being held. Journalists were also invited to document the event.
The conference was set to last three days, with different content scheduled for each day. But it all centered on one issue — how to restore the ancient book.
Everyone invited had come to Libanan in advance, fearing they would miss this event. Because everyone had heard that two highly revered individuals would be participating. One was Doctor Faces, who had once shaken the world of cultural relics. And the other was Twilight, an individual even more mysterious.
Rumor had it that Twilight was a highly distinguished individual who studied the restoration of ancient calligraphy and paintings from a very young age. He was so learned that he could independently complete restorations at a very early age. He mastered the knowledge that many people only came across in adulthood when he was still a child. This man had also won the most prestigious award in the ancient calligraphy and painting restoration competition ten years ago, even holding the championship for three consecutive years.
