Chapter 231

Kayla had a point, so Mr. Carter nodded in agreement. “I’ll try to be as stealthy as possible so that he doesn’t find out.”

Kayla pulled out a jade piece and placed it in Mr. Carter’s hand. “Thank you for your hard work.”

Mr. Carter refused to take it. “I appreciate your kindness, but after working so many years for the Fulcher family, I have no need for this.”

“I don’t mean to discredit your sincerity,” Kayla said humbly. “If you dislike these mundane items, I’ll prepare something else for you next time.”

“I’m happy as long as you and the master are happy,” Mr. Carter said, waving his hand dismissively.
