As he spoke. Truman, unexpectedly resolute, stood up, determined to retrieve the stunning Elysian Blue porcelain.

Amanda's face drained of color.

That tea set from the Aetherian empire was invaluable even a single bowl on display at the Sommerville Museum was deemed a national treasure. How could Truman even think about giving such a precious item to someone like her?

Did she truly deserve such exquisite teatare?

No matter how beautiful it is, if she lacks the skills to appreciate it, it would be meaningless.

Unable to help herself. Amanda glanced at Melody, hoping to see a flicker of surprise or insecurity.

Instead, she found the girl composed and collected, giving a slight nod. "That tea set is indeed remarkable.

You certainly have an eye for quality, Dad."

Truman's pride swelled at her words. He raised his chin, a broad grin spreading across his face. "Of course."

Ronald soon arrived, carefully placing each piece of the antique tea set on Melody's table.

Each cup was a work of art, capturing everyone's attention.

The onlookers exclaimed, "Truman, you've been hiding this from us! Such a beautiful tea set, and you're only revealing it now?" Truman shrugged, a playful smirk dancing on his lips.

"Heh, enjoy it. If it weren't for Melody, I wouldn't have bothered to show it to you folks."

Despite his relaxed demeanor since retiring, he still enjoyed playful banter, casually calling them "folks" as if they were old friends.

As Amanda admired the priceless tea set, a wave of jealousy surged within her.

How did Melody, an ordinary girl from the countryside, manage to capture Mr. Truman's attention?

She knew that Truman favored women who were intelligent and cultured; after all, Edward's stepmother came from an educated background.

If only everyone can see that Melody is merely an unsophisticated girl with little depth.

Surely, if Mr. Truman realizes how inadequate she is, he will use interest.

With a feigned sweetness, Amanda remarked, "Ms. Tucker, I heard you graduated from Greenfield University. With such an impressive background and Mr. Truman's admiration, I imagine your tea skills must be exceptional! 1/3

"I'm Amanda, a childhood friend of Edward's. I have a real passion for tea myself and would love to learn from you, Ms. Tucker."

Her first comment dripped with irony, suggesting that Melody had won Mr. Moore's affection through her supposed "tea skills".

The second statement aimed to remind everyone of her longstanding connection to Edward, subtly pushing for a tea contest between them.

Each reference to Melody as Ms. Tucker instead of Mrs, Moore made her intentions clear-this was both a challenge and a slight.

The expressions of the guests shifted, realizing that the Jensons were a cultured family with a solid reputation in the tea community, known both locally and internationally.

If Melody dared to take on Amanda, she was bound to face dire consequences.

Truman's expression darkened. "Amanda, you...

Amanda smiled innocently. "Mr. Truman, you've always held tea culture in high regard, and my father often participates in tea competitions with you.

It's merely a friendly challenge for the younger generation; surely, you wouldn't mind, would you?"

Truman was annoyed. How could he allow a mere child to take charge?

Just as he prepared to refuse firmly, Melody rose, her voice gentle yet assertive.

The tradition of tea competitions goes back to the Cyllun empire and thrived during the Aetherian empire. They are quite rare these days.

"Ms. Jenson, if you want to compete, I think this gathering could help promote tea culture. I hope to stream this live stream. I hope it wouldn't be a problem. "There's be winners and losers in competitions. Ms. Jenson, why not propose a wager?"

Surprised by Melody's boldness, Amanda smirked, fully aware of the Jensons' esteemed status in Sommerville and their rich knowledge of cultural traditions "Very well. If I win, Ms. Tucker, I hope you surrender the enameled Elysian Blue Tea Set from the Aetherian empire that Mr. Truman gifted you.

This set wasn't just priceless; it represented Truman's acknowledgment of Melody.

Losing it would certainly sting her pride.

Melody, delicate yet unwavering, smiled faintly. "Sure!"

Gasps of disbelief swept through the room.

How could Melody risk such a treasured recognition from the Moores?

Truman's expression darkened as well.

Then, in a soft, distant tone, Melody continued, "If I win. I want....
