Chapter 170

“Of course, I will take you there. The maid smiled gently and led Taylor to the jasmine tree, walking ahead of him.

The butler had mentioned that Taylor was a favored guest of Yvonne, and his requests should be accommodated as much as possible.

She led Taylor through the small alley and along half of the long corridor until they reached the jasmine.

The jasmine free of the Holmes family was grand and stood quietly in the garden on either side.

The surrounding jasmine leaves had already started to yellow, but this one was still green, the color rich and vibrant,

Between the green leaves, small flowers, the size of millet, mixed with yellow, gave off a delicate, otherworldly fragrance.

From a distance, Taylor could tell. “This tree must be quite old

The maid answered with a smile. It’s about 210 years old now.”

Taylor nodded.

The tree stood about thirty feet tall, its crown dense with leaves, and its bark was rough.

He sighed, “It’s beautiful. It will likely grow into a jasmine king one day.”

Taylor walked closer to take a better look, and just then, a gust of wind blew through, sending two or three small jasmine flowers drifting down.

They fell right into his hands.

The delicate yellow flowers resting in his hands, alongside his wrinkled, aged skin, made Taylor feel like his hands were as rough as the tree bark.

The few flowers lingered on the back of his hand for a moment before floating away, leaving a subtle fragrance on his skin.

The scent lingered long enough to rival that of perfume.

But this scent was far more valuable than any perfume.

Taylor stood with his hands behind his back, gazing up at the jasmine tree.

He realized that no matter how hard he worked, he could never transform a 200–year–old tree.
