Others would only see three ordinary siblings, full of real love for each other, and not three heavyweights in their respective industries.
“This is exactly why we came here with Professor Kerrigan.
“This is the real Professor Dane Kerrigan–someone who’s got a heart.
“People can’t just live like machines. Experiencing all life has to offer is the real meaning of living.”
Manfred couldn’t help but feel sentimental.
Dane and Mystro came back to the room, carrying the gifts they had carefully prepared. <fnde06> Updates are released by f?ndnovel</fnde06>
“Tilda! Merry Christmas!”
Both gifts were wrapped beautifully.
You could tell a lot of thought had gone into them.
Red ribbons, Christmas paper…
Everything looked special, full of care and ceremony.
Dane had also prepared a gift for Mystro.
He wrote on a paper, “This is for you, and another one … for the junior I haven’t met yet. Please give it to
him for me.”
“OK, Dane. This is yours.”
Mystro had naturally prepared a gift for Dane too.
They exchanged their gifts.
Tilda watched, her heart filled with warmth.
She remembered how K exchanged gifts with the Jensons in her past life.
But now, this <b>was </b>Tilda’s real “family“-her seniors!
She would never have to be alone again.
“Although I really want to open them now, I should wait until we’re in the room–it would be rude to open them here.”

“Oh, and Mr. Parker, Mr. Barber, you two wait a moment.”
Tilda took her gifts back to her hotel room.
Then she picked out two gifts for Manfred and River.

They blinked, surprised. “We… get gifts too?”
“Of course! We’re friends now. Since it’s Christmas and you’re here, I prepared gifts for you as well.
“They’re all chosen carefully, just right for each of you!
“Don’t think I only spoil my seniors. I remember everyone who treats me kindly!”
Tilda raised her eyebrows confidently.
Not just Manfred and River …
Andy, Una, Jude …
She had gifts for them too!
Once she returned to Cethend, she’d give them out.
“Uh…”
Manfred and River suddenly felt awkward.
They hadn’t prepared gifts for Tilda!
Now that she was giving them gifts, it felt almost rude not to have anything in return.
“Tilda… I rushed here for Professor Kerrigan’s security work. I didn’t expect this.”
“This Nutinworth dagger has been with me since I joined the military. It’s irreceable to me. I hope you don’t mind me giving it to you.”
River drew out the Nutinworth dagger, kept in perfect condition at his side.
“This pocket watch is the first award I got in the military. I’ve carried it with me ever since. I didn’t expect this moment …
“Merry Christmas!”
Manfred also gave a historically important pocket watch.
“Alright, these items are very important to you–how could I ept them? I don’t expect anything in return. I only give gifts to those I truly wish to.
“Your gifts are so meaningful that they outshine mine. If I epted them, I’d owe you more.”
Tilda shrugged yfully.
“No way! You’ve done so much for our organization! If you don’t ept, we won’t leave!”

Manfred and River insisted even more.
Tilda hesitated before saying, “Fine! Thank you for the gifts!”
She took the gifts from them, feeling happy, and returned to her room.

Before closing the door, she smiled and called out again, “Merry Christmas! Good night, you all! See you tomorrow<b>!</b>”
Even though it was already 11.30 p.m., Tilda wished she could stay with her seniors a bit longer.
But the gifts were too tempting. She couldn’t wait!
Back in her room, Mystro said he was leaving because it waste.
He left first.
Manfred and River still wanted to continue Dane’s security work.
Then Dane pulled out a small notebook.
“Wait a minute, I prepared gifts for you two too.”
Manfred and River quickly said, “No!”
They were happy and excited that Dane thought of them, but really, they had no more gifts to give!
It was the first time receiving gifts felt <i>so </i>torturous!
