"Your wife must be very gentle and virtuous," Nia said."Yeah, she's wonderful." When talking about Ysabella, Tyrone became much gentler. Nia was surprised and thought Ysabella must be a very happy person.Tyrone peeled the potatoes and prepared other dishes. With his help, the meal was prepared quickly. Soon, the table was filled with a variety of delicious dishes.Nia ran outside to call Ambrose and the others. Karl wheeled Ambrose over as Ambrose's brothers followed them.Daniel looked at the dishes on the table and smiled. "Our eldest nephew must have made these dishes. Our Nia doesn't know how to cook such things.""You're very smart, Uncle Daniel." Nia laughed."If my skills aren't that good, I hope you won't mind," Tyrone modestly said.Nia had learned her cooking skills from the village women. They kept their dishes simple and rustic. However, Tyrone was different. He had learned specifically for Ysabella and could easily match the skills of chefs in five-star hote

On their way back, Tyrone volunteered to help Nia carry the basket. Nia's face briefly showed a hint of embarrassment. She smiled, saying, "No need, Tyrone. It's not heavy, and I'm used to carrying it.""I'll help you. Don't be polite," Tyrone insisted.With that, Tyrone took the basket from Nia and carried it on his shoulders. It was a bit heavy, and Tyrone glanced at Nia, who appeared youthful at 18 years old. She had a sense of simplicity and innocence typical of life in the mountains.Yesterday, Karl had mentioned that Nia was the daughter of a deceased uncle he thought was gone.Since Nia had grown up with Ambrose's brothers, she had never attended school. Instead, she had learned everything from the uncles, including her literacy skills. However, since she was a girl, there were many things they couldn't teach her. Fortunately, the older women from the village who worked as housemaids were able to guide Nia. Therefore, Nia had been able to grow up so happily. She owe

After arriving in the city, Ambrose didn't board the plane immediately but went to the hospital first. Such occurrences were common. Tyrone and Karl were accustomed to it, but not Nia. After settling Ambrose in the hospital, Tyrone approached Nia, who was crouched at the ward's door."I'll take you to the hotel," Tyrone said. Nia's eyes showed a hint of hesitation. "Is Uncle Ambrose okay?" she asked.Tyrone chuckled. "Don't worry, the old man is temporarily fine. At least he can hold on for some time.""Does that mean Uncle Ambrose is still in danger?" Nia inquired.Tyrone restrained the smile on his face and replied, "Life, aging, sickness, and death are things no one can change or control."Nia's eyes welled up with tears. "But I don't want anything to happen to Uncle Ambrose.""Many things can't be determined by your wishes alone. They will happen regardless," Tyrone said, furrowing his brows. Nia nodded and said, "I understand." But her tears continued to fall.Altho

Tyrone held Nia's wrist and reassured her, "No need to be afraid."The elevator doors opened with a ding. Leading Nia by the wrist, Tyrone went to the hotel restaurant.Only after they were seated did he release Nia's wrist.Nia felt a bit disappointed. If only she could be protected by an elder brother forever."What would you like to eat?" Tyrone asked, holding the menu.Nia shook her head and said, "You choose for me."Tyrone nodded, and since Nia hadn't ventured beyond the mountains, she probably wouldn't understand the menu. He made a simple selection, handed the menu to the waiter, and looked at Nia."Do you know where we're going in the coming days?" Tyrone inquired.Nia nodded. "Uncle Dylan said it's the capital, a very prosperous place.""Do you know what's coming?" Tyrone asked.Nia nodded again. There was a hint of determination in her eyes. "I'm not afraid. I won't let my uncles down.""I'll help you adapt to the new environment, but neither I, Karl, nor your u

Ysabella stepped forward, helping Nia fasten the bra's back, saying, "Just make sure to button the top ones here."Nia nodded.The fitting room had a mirror. As Nia looked at herself, she became even more shy. She was momentarily unsure of what to do.Ysabella smirked and laughed gently. "It's okay. You're very pretty. Be confident. You're not any less than anyone else."Ysabella could sense Nia's lack of confidence. After all, she was a girl who had just emerged from the mountains, and everything outside was unfamiliar to her.At this moment, Nia gradually understood why the uncles had insisted on Tyrone bringing her out.Ysabella placed her hand on Nia's back, and the latter instinctively straightened up."Look at how good you look now. Regardless of whether one is beautiful or not, confidence is the most important thing," Ysabella reassured.Nia nodded and straightened her posture, saying, "I will work on being more confident."Ysabella smiled without saying much more and w
