I Have A Terminally Ill Duke As My Husband (1 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 120

“No, why suddenly a shop? Could it be that Luan isn’t giving you money to spend?”

Olivia asked as she brought over tea along with the egg tarts Mercian had bought, and Mercian smiled in reply.

At Olivia’s words, as she set down the tea alongside the egg tarts Mercian had purchased, Mercian laughed gently and answered.

“Auntie, how could that be? He actually gives me more than enough—so much that there’s always something left over. It’s not about lacking money; it’s just that I enjoy seeing people happy when they eat the food I make. Of course, running a shop hasn’t been without its hardships, but the joyful moments have been far more plentiful. However, I’ve decided to donate all profits from this shop to charity. Luan agreed with me immediately, but I still felt I should ask for your permission first.”

Hearing Mercian’s words, Olivia looked mischievously at the tart in her hand and said,

“Oh my! So this egg tart was actually a bribe? No wonder you bought so many today.”

“Auntie, that’s not it at all.”

“It’s a good thing to have something you truly want to do. If you wish to do it, go ahead freely—just as long as you don’t harm your health.”

Mercian’s heart fluttered warmly at Olivia’s words.

“Thank you for worrying about me, Auntie. I promise I won’t overexert myself. After all, I only plan to make sandwiches in the morning and then return to the ducal residence. Sales will be handled by other staff.”

“Good, do just that. Then, have you found a shop already? Come to think of it, I heard one of our trading company’s stores is vacant—were you planning to use that one?”

“No, that place has already been renewed by its current tenant who wishes to stay longer. Luckily, I managed to secure a store in an excellent location.”

“That’s good to hear. If you ever need anything or run into difficulties, do tell me. I’ll help you however I can.”

Mercian smiled in response to Olivia’s words.

“Just your words alone mean a great deal to me—thank you.”
