Intern's Blunder, Not Your Fixer

🔔

I am a genius artifact restorer in the country. People refer to me as the "national treasure".
However, the turmoil began when the new intern, Martin Jaques, accidentally soaked an invaluable ancient painting.
The client, incensed by the incident, kidnapped Martin, and issued a chilling ultimatum: Repair the painting within 24 hours, or his hands would be broken.
My girlfriend pleaded with me, "Hugh, only you can accomplish this. If you make it, I'll marry you!"
Soon, the director barged into the room, ordering me, "Hugh, this painting is worth billions. You must complete the restoration!"
I raised my injured hand, "Sorry, my hand's burned. Can't do it."
