Chapter 797
Cameron unlocked the door to the fourth floor. When they walked in, it was as though they’d stepped into a museum.
All the antiques were preserved perfectly and exhibited as though they were in a gallery. It didn’t seem messy at all.

Caleb’s eyes widened. He knew why Alexander asked him to get some
exposure with Skylar. Some of those antiques would never see the light of day. One wouldn’t find them even if one looked in a museum or an auction.
Indeed, Cameron was a powerful but low–profile man.
When he caught Skylar straightening up sternly, he stopped horsing around and seriously trailed after her. He looked over each antique one by one.
Cameron said nothing as well. However, he followed them and glanced at Skylar from time to time. He nodded with satisfaction.
Although she was extremely young, she was calm and well–adjusted, a worthy competitor to Viola in her youth. One could argue that she was better than Viola in certain ways.
She spent two hours looking through them. Skylar wasn’t only trying to discern whether there were negative items. She was also admiring the antiques.
Recently, she was able to learn about the history of an antique. Scenes from its past came to life in her mind’s eye.
For others, it would be boring to look at them for hours on end. However, it was as though she was watching a movie.
As the seconds ticked by, Cameron couldn’t continue watching. He sat down and took a break. Caleb followed suit.
They were in awe of Skylar. She meticulously appraised every antique. Two hours had passed, but she was still focused intently on her task.
“I wasn’t half as patient as she was when I was her age,” sighed Cameron.
Caleb chuckled and said, “I’m doing my best to learn from hér.‘
Skylar hadn’t noticed that the men behind her had disappeared. When the third.
hour rolled around, Skylar finished looking through all the items.
She turned around to see Cameron and Caleb sitting a short distance away. Skylar strode over and said, “Mr. Yates Senior, none of your antiques have any issues. You’ve got nothing to worry about.”
Every antique in his collection was genuine. None of them were fakes. That in
itself was a remarkable fact.
“Excellent!” Cameron felt as though a weight had been lifted off his shoulders. He no longer needed to live in fear.
What a relief.
Joe went to his hotel after leaving one of Martin Group’s branch offices. He massaged his temples tiredly. Paul handed him a cup of coffee and said, “Mr.
Martin.‘
Π
Joe took it from him and sipped at it. He must’ve been dissatisfied with the coffee, as he put it away after a while.
Suddenly, Joe asked, “Do you know why Skylar came to Zallory?”
Thankfully, Paul had prepared for Joe’s question beforehand. He answered, “I asked around. Mrs. Martin and Caleb headed to Yates Residence after
touching down. Mr. Yates Senior must’ve needed something from them.”
Joe hummed in response.
Paul wasn’t quite sure what Joe wanted to do. He asked, “Should we visit Yates
Residence?”
Joe gave Paul a meaningful look. Paul’s breathing stopped.
“Make the necessary arrangements,”
