After returning to the estate, Noland didn't force Jin Shiya into any activities. Instead, he suggested she take a nap. Noland knew well that with Jin Shiya's personality, even if he pressured her to rest and relax, she would end up working anyway. If she liked to tire herself out, then letting her be for these ten days or half a month wouldn't hurt.

However, for Jin Shiya, the idea of just eating and sleeping felt too lazy. Upon returning to her room, she turned and entered the study. She had observed the study the day before; everything was well-equipped, including the computer, and even a VPN to access domestic networks had been set up.

Jin Shiya opened her computer and logged into her school's website to catch up on her missed courses, watching the online video lessons. Although she valued her family business, her main role was still that of a student. Many of her courses were still beneficial to her, and the professors could help resolve any doubts.

Even though no one was particularly concerned about her academic progress, Jin Shiya was determined to graduate with high marks and earn her certificate in a proper manner.

While she was diligently catching up on her studies, Noland was facing a "I have something to say" Sherman.

Olissa had brewed Noland some cool tea and placed it on a nearby table. The sea view outside was a stunning display of water and sky. Meanwhile, Sherman stood there with a frustrated expression on his face.

"What do you want to say?" Noland asked, giving Sherman ample time to air out all his concerns before Jin Shiya left in an hour.

Sherman hesitated for a moment, carefully observing Noland's expression to ensure his safety. Finally, he spoke up, "I think you care too much about Miss Jin Shiya."

The ice cubes at the bottom of the tea glass had begun to soften, and some slid down with a crisp sound as they touched the cup.

Noland didn't speak, and Sherman continued.

"Have you admitted to being Miss Jin Shiya's boyfriend? Forgive me for saying this, but if the master and madam find out about this, it could cause some trouble."

After Sherman spoke, Olissa raised her head and glanced at him. Though her face remained expressionless, she couldn't help but think, Sherman Herman, could you be an idiot? We're Noland's subordinates, not part of the Harris family. That's something you should remember.

"The master and madam want a wife for Noland Harris, but they would never want anyone that is not British to fill that role," Olissa added.

Noland smiled, "Even if they find out, I don't care. Besides... it’s easy to prevent them from knowing, right?"

His smile faded slightly as he looked at Sherman, "From the moment I picked you up from the slums, I never imagined you’d become an informant for my parents."

"Remember who your master is."

Noland stood up from his chair, preparing to leave the room. "If I hear even a whisper of this from the family, I'll have you pack up and return to the slums."

Sherman froze for a moment, bowing deeply to Noland. After Noland left the room, Sherman straightened up and cast a bitter smile at Olissa, who remained where she stood. "Are you laughing at me?"

Olissa, still expressionless, responded, "No, I was just planning to clean up the cup you left behind."
