"I understand, Sister Minnie."
Upon hearing herself addressed as Sister Minnie, Minimus Hart paused for a moment; only her confidants would call her that.
"Why do you call me that?"
Raina Bell stepped forward two paces and said with a smile, "Because you promoted me, Sister Minnie. I will repay your kindness."
Raina should have been eliminated, but Minimus Hart had seen something in her, personally selected her, and made an exception to allow her into the weaving group for female slaves.
All her strict training and careful cultivation had been for the purpose of giving Raina a chance to get close to Young Master Shannon.
Raina always remembered Minimus Hart's kindness in her heart. Even if Minimus Hart had ulterior motives, it didn't negate the special care she had shown Raina.
Minimus Hart smiled contentedly, her gaze towards Raina holding a hint of appreciation. "Very good. You're a quick learner."
Raina smiled shyly and said, "Thank you for your praise, Sister Minnie."
