Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 964

She hadn't expected it...

She had just made a passing comment about recruiting two friends.

But Serena remembered.

And had custom uniforms prepared for them as well.

Lydia's eyes filled with tears, overwhelmed with gratitude as she looked at Serena.

"Thank you... Captain. Thank you."

Beyond "thank you."

They didn't know what else to say.

No one had ever treated them like they mattered.

No one had ever been this good to them.

No one had ever paid such close attention to their words.

This was a first.

As Caleb inspected his box, his fingers brushed against a sleek black bank card at the bottom, complete with a sticky note displaying the PIN.

He paused, pulling the card out. "Captain, what's this?"

"It's a bank card," Serena stated, barely glancing at it. "The ingredients for those detox serums aren't cheap. Use that to buy what you need."

Lydia quickly checked her box, and the other two as well, finding a bank card in every single one.

She practically slammed her box shut. "Captain, we can't take this money..."

"It's not a handout," Serena cut her off. "It's an investment. My investment in you."

"Look at your current condition. How do you expect to win the Elite Challenge? Can you guarantee you won't collapse mid-competition? Do you want to be typing code with trembling fingers? Or running lab experiments while dizzy and nauseous?"

"If you want to win, you need to fix your health. If we lose because you're physically compromised, then you'll truly owe me."

"Take it."

Caleb and Lydia looked at each other.

Finally, they clutched the heavy boxes, their eyes rimmed with red.

Lydia let out a tearful laugh. "Captain, you play the ice queen, but... you're actually a huge softie! You have a heart of gold!"

Serena raised an eyebrow.

A softie?

She found that highly amusing.
