Chapter 810
The girls were clearly worried about Micah. He reassured them, “You don’t need to worry about me.”
Nina observed Micah. Despite the news of the village massacre by the Allied Forces, he showed no emotion. It seemed he already knew.
Micah turned to Nina and asked, “How are you adjusting here?”
“I’m doing well,” Nina replied. “I’ve gotten along well with everyone.” Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ Findηøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
“That’s good.”
Micah’s expression shifted slightly. “The Captain they mentioned, is he from your country? I saw them helping to rebuild the school.”
Micah remarked, “Your people are really kind-hearted, helping the villagers without asking for anything in return.”
His tone carried a hint of skepticism, as if he found it hard to believe such a selfless army existed.
Nina added, “In our country, the army isn’t used to wage wars and plunder. They protect the people. That’s how we build a harmonious nation!”
She spoke with confidence, contrasting the chaos she saw here with the peace back home.
Micah seemed taken aback by her words, pausing before smiling. “That’s wonderful. You must be very fortunate.”
Compared to many countries, their happiness level must be high.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t complete the task you gave me,” Nina admitted. “The village and the school were destroyed. I didn’t have time to teach the children. Now that you’re back, things should get back on track.”
Micah nodded. “I’m planning to hold classes outside tomorrow. If you’d like, you can join us.”
Nina nodded in agreement.
“By the way, here’s your gift,” Micah said to Arin.
Arin was thrilled. “I thought I was too late, but you didn’t forget about me, Mr. Micah!”
Micah smiled. “Everyone gets treated the same.”
He then handed Nina a small gift. “This is for you,” he said gently. “I hope you like it.”
Nina was surprised to receive a gift. She looked at Micah, his gentle eyes making her feel cherished. Despite her suspicions, his kindness made her feel like a treasured child. Why would she feel like that?
Arin was ecstatic, clutching her gift from Micah. Nina opened her box to find a handcrafted red string bracelet featuring a carved emerald charm. She admired the craftsmanship, noting the unique design.
“It’s quite special,” Nina said, examining it. “But I’m not sure what it signifies.”
“It’s for protection,” Micah explained. “Given the chaos here, it’s meant to keep you safe.”
The thoughtful gesture warmed Nina’s heart. “Thank you,” she said. “I didn’t get anything for you.”
“You don’t need to,” Micah replied with a smile. “Your appreciation is enough.”
Nina looked at the waterfall cascading down the cliff. Despite the region’s backwardness, its natural beauty was breathtaking. If developed for tourism, it would surely attract many visitors.
Their conversation was being observed by someone hiding in the bushes, seething with jealousy. “Ile never shows me affection, but he’s showing affection to someone else? Does he even consider me his sister?”
