The patriarch and Mr. Winters, who had listened intently, couldn't help but feel reassured by Kisha's strength and poise.
As the daughter-in-law of their family, they knew she would keep Duke steady, never allowing his light to overshadow hers.
Instead of diminishing, Kisha's brilliance would only grow with time, standing beside Duke as an equal.
The patriarch and Mr. Winters exchanged glances with Duke, their expressions a mix of mock disdain.
It was as if their unspoken message to him was: "You're lucky to have such an incredible wife—you don't deserve her."
They even snorted for effect, but the broad smiles tugging at their lips betrayed their genuine happiness for him.
In their hearts, they were overjoyed that Duke had found a partner like Kisha—a woman capable of shouldering the world's trials and triumphs alongside him.
