Chapter 134 The Mysterious Person

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

and 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,

Therefore, her embroidery was truly unique and sure to please him.

However, after Jonathan inspected it, he commented with a hint of disdain, “Hmph, it’s pretty average. If you hadn’t told me it was a magpie, I would’ve thought it was a sparrow.”

Milly was taken aback, unsure if he was serious or just teasing her.

“If you don’t want it, just give it back to me, Milly said, her face cooling as she reached for the sachet.

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.

Didn’t he say that it’s ugly?

Jonathan then fixed her with a serious look. “Is this sachet only for me? Did Jordan and the others get one, too?” he asked pointedly.

He continued, a bit bitterly, “No need to answer. You must’ve made them one too. You’re close to them, and they’re impressive. How could they be left out?”

Milly could not believe these harsh words were coming from her own brother.
