It was only after leaving Hansel that Miranda rediscovered her purpose. She gradually regained her former radiance and charm, but the moment also filled him with deep regret, which overshadowed his earlier admiration for her. 

Willow quietly observed the changes in his expression but kept her own demeanor steady as she took his hand. 

Hansel looked at her in confusion. 

She smiled and said, “Since we’re here to celebrate and bring a gift, it only feels right to give it ourselves.” 

With that, she led him forward. “Miranda, congratulations! I wasn’t sure what you’d like, so this gift is something Hansel and I chose together. I hope your lab thrives and you achieve great success.” 

“Thank you.” As the saying went, “You don’t hit someone who greets you with a smile.” Miranda accepted it with her eyes locked on Willow without sparing him a glance. 

Hansel clenched his fist at his side. 

Joli and Theodore seized the moment to step forward and congratulate Miranda. 

Joli tightened his grip on the small package he held. He wasn’t as smooth with words as Willow, so he awkwardly presented the gift. 

“Congratulations!” he exclaimed. “This is a sachet my mom made. It’s not fancy, but you can hang it anywhere. It’s supposed to refresh your mind and keep the bugs away.” 

Inside were three sachets. Miranda received one, and Madison and Sebastian each got one, too. 

Joli felt a flutter of nerves as he handed them out. He was worried that his gift was too modest since he couldn’t afford anything more extravagant. 

To his surprise, Miranda and the others didn’t show any disappointment. In fact, they seemed genuinely appreciative. 

Madison held hers curiously while inspecting it closely 

Inside the sachet were mugwort and a mix of other herbal spices. The initial scent was a bit strong but surprisingly invigorating. After inhaling it for a while, the fragrance softened and became more balanced. 

How amazing! This herbal sachet even had distinct top notes and base notes. 

“Thank you. We all really love this gift,” Miranda said while looking at her sachet again. She noticed the embroidery was done by hand. 

Hers featured a white cat, Madison’s had a golden cicada, and Sebastian’s showed three ears of wheat. 

To show her gratitude, Madison poured a glass of water for Joli. “I didn’t thank you properly last time your helped me pick up my stuff. Now that you’re giving me a gift, I should do something in return. Let me get 

you some w 

He quickly waved his hand, and he blushed. “Oh, you don’t have to. It’s really not a big deal… 

“It’s the thought that counts, right?”

At that, Joli’s face turned completely red. Trying to ease his embarrassment, he cleared his throat and asked, “Uh… can I come in and see your lab?” 

After tucking his sachet away, Sebastian took the lead, “Let me show you around.”
