After a long contemplation, Alice finally pinpointed the key difference between William and other young men.
William always spoke with such gravity and composure. Even though he looked so young, he exuded a wise, seasoned aura.
Most strikingly, despite his seemingly gentle and laid-back demeanor, his offhand comments often made people want to hit him out of sheer frustration.
Calm down!
Calm down!
Alice stared at William, forcing a smile and asked through gritted teeth, "Is there something you wish to instruct, Master?"
William set his phone aside, slowly rising to his feet, "Stay here and watch the fire. I'll prepare a gift for our formal introduction."
A gift?
Alice had initially assumed William to be a more cold, even sarcastic individual. She hadn't expected a welcoming gift upon accepting him as a master.
