In his seventy–plus years of life, Timeus had never questioned reality as much as he did at this moment.

He opened the mouth of the transparent plastic bag for these foreigners to take.

While they were busy peeling oranges, Timeus turned to lower his voice and quietly asked the assistant beside him.

“Don’t they have oranges overseas?”

“The–they should, right?”

They should–no, they definitely do. So why are these foreigners acting like they’ve never tasted an orange before?”

As exclamations of wonder continued around them, Timeus and his assistant exchanged a silent, bewildered glance.

Mimicking their exaggerated tones internally, Timeus thought, ‘My God, are these really executives from a major corporation? They’re acting like they’ve never seen the world! A simple orange has them praising it to the heavens!‘

Jenny, the first to try the orange, was practically glowing with excitement. “I told you! It’s the most delicious orange I’ve ever eaten!”

The others, completely won over by the fruit’s flavor, nodded in fervent agreement.

After eating what they were holding, they looked at Timeus eagerly, pleading silently for more.

Timeus looked down at the bag in his hand, and there was only the last one left in it.

This group of foreign friends had a large team, with a total of more than a dozen people.

The bag hadn’t contained many oranges to begin with, and some had taken extras earlier.

The last person to reach in had nearly taken the final two but, after a moment’s hesitation, sheepishly put one back.

As a result, the bag of oranges that Taylor had just given him was now left alone.

Everyone saw that there was only one left, so they were too embarrassed to ask for more.

To be honest, Timeus was also quite embarrassed.
