Chapter 3364 Miller's Gift of Tea

Back when the Cunningham Family was the first to open a herbal restaurant, both she and James had felt utterly hopeless. If not for Matthew's miraculous turnaround, which changed everything, they would've likely returned home in disgrace by now. All the resentment Helen had felt toward Terrance instantly vanished as she gazed at that box of tea. Miller had said it was part of an annual harvest of only three ounces, and Terrance had sent her two of them. It showed how much he valued and wanted to apologize to her.

"Miller, don't worry. I'll take charge of the merger. You don't have to be concerned about it."

Miller's face remained soft and friendly as he smiled and nodded, though his eyes betrayed his disdain and contempt for Helen.

It was true that Terrance cultivated tea trees by hand, and the harvest was indeed limited to a few ounces each year. However, those rare leaves were usually gifted to other powerful families to maintain alliances or stored as personal treasures. Even Miller's father, Yann, had only ever had one cup. Did Helen, from a mere cadet branch, really think Terrance would send her something so precious?

The elegant tin box and tea leaves were nothing more than something Miller had picked up in Cathay before coming. The whole thing had cost just over a hundred bucks, and even that was mostly for the fancy tin. The tea itself wasn't worth more than a mouth rinse. Helen reached for the tin, opened it, and held it up to her nose, taking in a faint whiff of the tea's subtle fragrance. Although she detected only a light, barely noticeable scent, she didn't want to reveal her ignorance, so she spoke up. "As expected from Old Master Cunningham's personal cultivation. This tea is top-tier, no doubt about it."

Miller's smile widened, both on his face and in his eyes. He nodded enthusiastically. He had to keep smiling as brightly as possible-otherwise, the ridicule bubbling beneath the surface might slip through.
