Terence had no idea what was on Marilyn’s mind. He simply instructed Shane wearily, “Since you are willing to take care of her, stay in town and help her with the arrangements for her grandmother and sister.”
“Sure, Old Mr. Quillen!” Shane nodded.
But Marilyn asked nervously, “Old Mr. Quillen, don’t you want me anymore? Didn’t you promise to take me away from this place?”
Looking at her anxious eyes, Terence finally said, “Once you have settled things here, you can leave without any worries!”
Then, he turned to Mackenzie and instructed, “Mackenzie, give them some money.”
“Okay!” Mackenzie nodded.
Shane didn’t refuse, but it was Marilyn who got excited and said, “Old Mr. Quillen, I don’t want your money! I just want to be with you, listen to your teachings, and let you show me a bigger world! I want to broaden my horizons!”
Terence chuckled and said, “I told you. You can only explore this world after you have settled your matters!”
Seeing how special Terence was treating Marilyn, Mackenzie couldn’t help but worry. Could it be that this girl has grand ambitions and wants to take Grandma’s place? This is absurd! She’s much younger than me. But in the end, Mackenzie didn’t say anything.
“Mackenzie, Shane is my junior. I’ll take care of the money issue for him,” Emmanuel spoke up to shoulder the responsibility.
“Well, alright then!”
Mackenzie didn’t like to dwell on things. After settling the situation here, she and Emmanuel had other more important matters to deal with.
Two days later, Mackenzie accompanied Emmanuel and returned to Hero’s Village once again. Many people from the village came to attend the funeral, knowing that Queenie had passed away.
Alessandra and Roselynn also returned, and Mackenzie gave Alessandra some money and asked her to represent the Lowe family and express their condolences to Queenie’s family. Even Frederick took a special leave from the city to come back.
