“In the culinary realm, my skills may wane, but in nurturing you, I excel. Might this action mend the


    fabric of my perceived shorings?”

    Millie’s words ceased,prehension dawning as the root of his vexation revealed itself. Yet, the scale


    of his reaction in response to a minor matter left her contemtive; why had this infinitesimal detail


    triggered such turmoil within him?


    However, the male ego was often fragile. A mere spotlight on their skill deficiency held the power to


    wound their ego.


    “Honey, my apologies. In my eyes, you’re unmatched,” Millie expressed earnestly, her words a soothing


    melody to bridge the fleeting divide.


    At these words, Marcus finally smiled, a glimmer of warmth amid the shadows.


    As Millie’s assertion of his culinary ineptitude reached his ears, puzzlement knitted Marcus’ brow.


    After all, he was but human, not a deity. Certain tasks remained elusive due to his dedication to


    weightier concerns,


    To Millie’s astonishment, a solitary sentence had caused the fall of this man’s countenance. Was


    Marcus too mean?


    “Honey, I’ll take a sip then.” Millie lowered her head and tasted the soup from the spoon.


    “my dear, it’s your turn. Please have some. This fish is beneficial for your health; you should have more


    of it.” Millie’s voice was soft and persuasive,


    A smile emerged on Marcus’ face. What was she nning for after his recovery?


    Obliging her, Marcus enjoyed two full bowls of the fish soup, not letting her kindness go to waste. The


    meal she had prepared was genuinely scrumptious.


    Taking a bite of another dish, Marcus looked at Millie, asking, “Is there anything else we need to do


    here?”


    “No, we can leave tomorrow.

    Millie responded, The roof would be repaired by the afternoon, and she could take care of the


    remaining tasks within the day. They could head straight back to Preagend the next day. Did Marcus


    want to leave so soon? His work usually kept him busy, making an extended stay here rather


    inconvenient.


    “Let’s visit the Tea Mount tomorrow.” “The Tea Mount?”


    The Tea Mount was a renowned tourist destination, blessed with lovely weather, Coincidentally, Marcus


    had been invited to examine a tourism development project there.


    It was the perfect chance to take Millie along.


    “Okay.” Millie agreed cheerfully, though she had never been there before. By the sound of the name,


    she assumed there would be an abundance of tea.


    Since they were leaving the next day, Millie wanted to visit Rnd before departing.


    “My love, I’ll pick up some fruits this afternoon and go to the hospital to visit Rnd.” After a pause, she


    added, “Had he not saved me, he wouldn’t be injured.”


    Marcus simply nodded.


    “I’l apany you.”


    Later that afternoon, Millie arrived at Rnd’s ward with arge basket of fruits. Rnd’s eyes sparkled


    at her entrance, and he quickly sat up.
