Chapter 2007 Enjoying a Moment of Peace

"Madam, what are you thinking?" Jane called out to Joyce.

Startled, Joyce awoke abruptly, realizing she had been too sensitive. The enemy was unknown, and they might not even be among the maids. If she had chosen the wrong direction, all her efforts would be in vain.

At least she shouldn't show it.

Quietly pondering in her heart, she stood up and said, "I'll go check on Cullen."

With that, she entered Cullen's room.

Mrs. Brown was playing with Cullen in the room, while Mrs. Powell stood respectfully on the side, looking cautious. Upon seeing Joyce walk in, she stood even more rigidly. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Accepting Cullen from Mrs. Brown's hands, Joyce said to Mrs. Powell, "You don't need to be so formal, relax a bit. This morning we learned about your family's situation, discussed it, and decided we can sponsor your son to go to university. After all, talent is rare. Does your son have a university in mind? Let us know, I'll inquire about it. Enrolling him should not be difficult. You don't have to worry about his living expenses and tuition. We will cover them. And he wants to study medicine, as you know, all the military hospitals in Khebury are owned by my family. His internships and future jobs are secured."

Mrs. Powell did not react, stunned for a moment before regaining her composure.

Suddenly, she knelt down with a "thump," "Madam, I've only been working here for less than a month. How can I deserve such grace? I am truly grateful for your immense generosity. Madam, I do not covet these things. I just want to stay and work hard. With the salary I earn, coupled with my son's hard work, we can get by."

Glancing at Mrs. Powell, Joyce changed her opinion of her at this moment. Faced with such a great temptation, she remained unmoved. This was probably the pride of an educated family, the so-called backbone. Joyce could understand Jane's feelings. Without merit, one should not accept rewards, and even if one takes them, one cannot feel at ease.

So Joyce smiled, "Don't be too quick to decline. If your son is truly outstanding, why can't he get existing scholarships? And our charitable organizations can provide assistance for outstanding talents. These can all be applied for. Strive for them based on ability. I'm just providing an opportunity for you."
