Chapter Two [Long sequel and ending]
In my previous life, Mrs. Carter couldn’t bear the early death of her young daughter and fell ill.”
There were wars on the border. The father and son of the Carter family went to the battlefield to fight against the enemy. General Carter was already exhausted physically and mentally, and died in battle. The morale of the Carter army plummeted. Andrew turned the tide and finally killed the enemy leader, but he was also seriously injured and passed away before arriving in Scarlis.
When Mrs. Carter heard that her husband and son had died in the war, she bumped into the coffin when she saw them. Since then, no one in the Carter family survived…
It was such a misery.
And the heroic young General also became a regret in people’s stories.”
The Carter family expressed their gratitude for many times and then took Nia back home first. General Carter had already invited an imperial doctor to their mansion.
Before leaving, I stopped Andrew.
Ms. Watson, what can I do for you Andrew asked with a gentle expression.
Take this. I took out a box and handed it to him.”
Andrew opened it. He was slightly startled as he looked at the thick stack of banknotes inside. What do you mean by this, Ms. Watson
I know that you and your father will soon go to the border. This is a little gift from the Watson family. I was planning to send someone to deliver it to your Mansion. But today, I can just give it to you directly. In addition, I have arranged some people to collect food, quilts and coal. If you need, please inform the Watson Family Chamber of Commerce.
I handed over another jade token.
Andrew looked at my slender fingers, accepted the token after a moment. His fingertips touched my palm, and we both subconsciously took a half step back.
Thanks for your righteousness, Ms. Watson.
I smiled and decided that in this life, I would do my best to help the young man in front of me to make a difference.}
I was the only girl who was surprised by his archery at the hunting ground that year. However, I hadn’t dared to express my love. I was used to following the rules. Even though being loved by my grandmother and parents, I had just wanted to be sensible.
But in this life I wanted to be braver.

When Andrew turned around, I reached out and grabbed his sleeve.
I’ll wait for your triumphant return. I lowered my head, blushing with shame. This was the bravest thing I had ever done in my life. I was so nervous that my fingers subconsciously tightened.
