Chapter 914 The Tin Box
“I've brought some supplies here on behalf of the air force. I-I'd like to be a pilot, Ms. Berry. However, my grandpa
and the family are not in favor of my dream. They say I already fight and use weapons. Do I really need to learn
how to fly a plane? But I believe I am capable of doing that...”
Janet hesitated briefly before continuing, “Currently, there is an opportunity to be dispatched to study in the
Maredania Air Force, and I'm willing to fight for it.”
“Well, you should just go for it! It's not hard to fly a plane. As long as you are keen on learning it well, I'm sure you
can succeed.” Holding the glass of water, Ashlyn warmed her cold hands, then lowered her head to drink it.
“Really?” Janet's eyes lit up. It was as if her mood was lifted immediately. “You aren't against my dream?”
Ashlyn glanced at her nonchalantly as she spoke in a bright tone. “It's not that there aren't any female pilots. We
just don't have a lot of them. However, it's probably more difficult to fly a fighter jet in the air force than a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcommercial airplane.”
Her words boosted Janet's confidence very much. Ashlyn watched Janet leave as the former sent her off while
feeling emotional.
The delicate girl in the past is now a part of the army. That's a pretty stark contrast, isn't it?
Meanwhile, Ryan had already joined the Maredania Air Force and begun his military training without Ashlyn's
knowledge.
Furthermore, he was on the air force team that was waiting for the first batch of exchange soldiers from H Nation.
At the Chapman residence in Lake City, the weather was cold recently, indicating early winter had arrived. Leaves
were falling from trees, and the courtyard had a bleak atmosphere.
Bob's health seemed to be deteriorating, and he no longer seemed as energetic as he once was.
The weather that day was quite nice as the sun was out. The warm rays of the early winter sun soothed everyone
and brought a feeling of comfort.
As Bob sat by the corridor, staring at the desolate courtyard, he couldn't help but let out a sigh.
“I need you to bring me the tin box from my room, Alfred.”
The butler, Alfred, threw the broom aside and went inside the house.
After a while, he then returned with a tin box and handed it to Bob. “Mr. Chapman, this tin box holds great value to
you. What made you decide to take it out now?”
“What's inside the box...” Cough! Cough! Bob let out a few loud coughs before continuing slowly, “The box contains
Alice's toys that she played with when she was a child. She was a smart little girl and loved to play with ring puzzles.
No one else could solve those puzzles except her.”
As Bob opened the tin box, he seemed to be reminiscing about the past.
There was a ring puzzle in the box and some other toys suited for those with a higher level of intelligence.
“Look, these are all the toys that she loved playing with. Why did I... even think about bringing her back here in the
first place?” Bob's gaze became distant. “She would still be alive and well if I hadn't brought her home...”

destiny for all of us!” Alfred glanced around to make sure there were no other people nearby before he continued,
“Would the Chapman family be prosperous and influential if it weren't for the business knowledge left behind by Ms.
Alice? Moreover, she even wrote a lot of music scores for you, which helped you become an acclaimed pianist. You
are surely aware of these even if no one else knows about them, right?”
Bob's eyes reddened as tears welled up in them. “The Chapman family should be held accountable for this, but I
should also be responsible for what happened...”
“It's too late to say so. Ms. Alice will surely forgive you. From now on, you should treat Ms. Ashlyn better. After all,
she's the only family Ms. Alice has in this world.”
With that, Alfred let out a sigh.
In the past, Alice had always respected him, despite the fact that he was only a butler in the Chapman residence.
Therefore, Alfred felt the other children in the Chapman family were incomparable to Alice.
“I heard that Ashlyn is now working at the disaster site. Although the Chapman family has been on the decline for
some time, and we are not comparable to what we used to be, we should still donate two million worth of supplies.”
