Chương 391: Gift

Mira's face flushed slightly.

A pink hue spread across her cheeks as Alex's words sank in.

He was offering her something beyond rare — something that she had never dreamed of getting her hands on if it weren't for Alex.

"Alex… I-I can't just accept this!"

She stammered and stuttered as she tried to get her words out, shaking her head.

"You know how precious these are. I'd never even have the chance to repay you!"

Alex simply shrugged, his smile softening.

"That's exactly why I'm giving them to you. I've got more than I'd ever need now, and it's not like I'm going to hog them all for myself."

"But—"

"No 'buts', Mira."

Alex interrupted gently, holding up a hand.

"You're the closest thing I have to a family, so giving them to you would never be a waste. Besides, I'd rather they be put to a good use than sit in my inventory collecting dust."

Mira bit her lip, torn between her pride and gratitude.
