Chapter 134 The Mysterious Person

Jonathan held the sachet tight, his excitement palpable as a surge of joy compelled him to admire it over

“Did you do the embroidery yourself?” he asked.

With a modest yet confident smile, Milly nodded. “Yes, I did. I realised it was your birthday and quickly got the materials last night to make it.”

Milly’s embroidery skills were anything but ordinary.

In her past life, the woman who ran the orphanage came from a line of palace embroiderers, meaning she had exceptional embroidery skills, Growing up under her influence and being a favourite, she learned many secretive and intricate embroidery techniques,

However, Jonathan raised his hand to stop her, and said with a frown, “No, once a gift is given, there’s not taking it back.”

Milly fought the urge to roll her eyes.
