“Just tell him it’s from me, and refusing it would be rude. I’m sure he’ll accept it,” Christine said.

“Got it.”

After handling everything, Miranda resumed her usual routine. She shuttled between the lab, college, and home. Once she immersed herself in her work, she realized how quickly time had passed.

Even Madison couldn’t help but comment, “Miranda is like the carrot on a stick. As long as I see it, I push myself to keep going even when I’m exhausted.”

Sebastian laughed at that, and she frowned. “What’s so funny? Are you saying you’re not like that?”

He replied, “I’m not a workhorse.”

Madison blinked. She thought, “Wait… What does that even mean? He’s not a workhorse, so does that mean I am?”

Everything went smoothly for Joli as well. Not long after Miranda and the others left, he and his parents packed up and left the village.

The neighbors were wondering what would happen to the cherry orchard. It wasn’t just the Sneider brothers who were interested in it. Other villagers were also eyeing, but most held back and hesitated to make a move. After all, who wouldn’t want a piece of land that could bring in profit?
