The director flashed a cue card that said 'Introduce the painting'.Madeline's eyes lit up with understanding as she turned to the painting and said softly, "This piece is a Renaissance Primavera. Primavera paintings, part of the flora and fauna genre, were pretty common during the Renaissance. Looking at it now—""How can you be so sure it's from the Renaissance? You're just making that up without any proof, aren't you?"A voice interrupted her.Madeline glanced up to find Hector leaning casually against the doorframe, an eyebrow cocked and a look of disdain on his face.Madeline was at a loss for words, puzzled about why Hector was even there. However, from the tone of his voice, it was clear he was there to stir up trouble.She turned to the director, only to see his eyes gleam as he quickly aimed the camera at Hector.Their live streams were usually so peaceful, lacking a bit of spice.Hector's challenge was perfectly timed.The moment Hector's face hit the live stream, a

She dampened the towel and wrapped it tightly around the area where the bird's 'poisoning' was at its worst, making a ring.Next, she poured in the fiery alcohol.Holding a water-dipped brush, Madeline gave Willa the nod to bring the heat. Willa, lighter in hand, was frozen solid, too scared to even twitch.Madeline gave her a comforting smile. "Relax, I've got this."It took an eternity for Willa to work up the nerve and spark a flame.The fire flared up, and Willa nearly burst into tears.However, Madeline was as cool as a cucumber, guiding the brush with gentle flicks, expertly controlling the burn.Once the 'poison' was purged, she slapped on a wet towel and snuffed out the flames.The scorched traces left by the alcohol had vanished, leaving the surface pristine and snow-white.Hector was taken aback by Madeline's unexpected expertise, grinding his teeth in frustration.It made sense why Yash was so keen on mentoring her, not even fazed by the prospect of failure.As Ma

"The live stream's a hit, way beyond what we hoped for. The museum's thinking about teaming up for a mega live stream with other museums."Restoring paintings all day could be a drag. The painting was a long-term project. What could she do in the meantime?Madeline's curiosity piqued. "A team-up? How's that gonna work?"The director, full of awe, explained, "You know, it's the young folks who get this live streaming stuff. Mr. Hector Ferguson's idea was to throw down a challenge in the stream. For the first round, we're talking about treasure hunting.""A treasure hunt? That's Mr. Hector Ferguson's brainchild?" Madeline quirked an eyebrow."Yes, so we're moving this afternoon's stream to Antique Street for a full-on treasure hunt. The Ember City Museum crew's in town too, so it's showdown time between our museums."Madeline watched the director's excitement with a mix of amusement and disbelief.What's Hector's angle there? Did the director even realize that Hector was playing

Sadie was showing off a plate with a sunny yellow backdrop and intricate blue floral designs—roses, to be exact—which were highly prized in ancient times.Madeline's mind flashed back to an auction where a plate from the Edo period, adorned ith chrysanthemums and a yellow glaze, fetched upward of 600 thousand dollars.That style, with its mix of underglaze and overglaze, first popped up in Japanese kilns back during the Edo era and was a hit with the collector crowd.That plate could easily rake in close to 1.2 million dollars.In the world of antiques, it was like finding a diamond in the rough. For years, treasures like those had been the stuff of legends. The clueless vendor had let it go for a mere pittance—just a few thousand dollars. Sadie's luck had been off the charts.Madeline could only marvel, her tongue clicking in disbelief.The chat in the live stream was going wild.[With just that one find, Sadie's ruling the stream. Madeline's chances of winning are slim to no

The online crowd was momentarily stunned, then the comments exploded across the screen.[Hah! You thought Madeline would get played, but she's the one playing you for being so gullible.][I knew it! With Madeline's sharp eye, how could she not spot a fake?][Hahaha! The shop owner caved so fast. Did he think Madeline's offer was too generous?][Not at all. The guy even spun a tale to make the sale. He's just scraping by.][Seriously, this shop owner's got zero business sense. Of all the artists to fake, he picks Raphael? Like no one would notice?][He thought he could fool Madeline like some naive college kid.][As a college student, I object. Even we can tell it's a phony.][Why on earth did Madeline snag a fake painting? She must've spaced out and thought she was on a casual shopping spree instead of in the middle of a showdown.][Right? Sadie's already scooped up loot worth a whopping 1.5 million bucks, and Madeline's sitting pretty with a measly 45-dollar trinket. Is she e
