“In the culinary realm, my skills may wane, but in nurturing you, I excel. Might this
action mend the fabric of my perceived shortcomings?”
Millie's words ceased, comprehension dawning as the root of his vexation
revealed itself. Yet, the scale of his reaction in response to a minor matter left her
contemplative; 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 planning 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.
