Liberty said, “At home, he usually cooks for us. He claims he’s not very good at it and needs the practice, but I think his cooking is delicious.”
Kathryn smiled. “When love is involved, everything tastes better.”
Liberty stood up, checked the kitchen, then returned to her seat beside Kathryn. In a low voice, she asked, “Pedro’s planning to propose to you. Has he hinted at anything?”
Kathryn shook her head. “Pedro hasn’t mentioned a proposal. We’re getting our marriage certificate the day after tomorrow. Whether he proposes or not doesn’t matter to me. In the end, he’ll be mine for life.”
Liberty was about to respond when the butler entered, interrupting their conversation.
“Ms. Liberty, Ms. Kathryn, there’s a young woman outside. She says she’s Ms. Liberty’s assistant and would like to meet with her.”
The two women exchanged glances before Kathryn teased, “Liberty, your all-around assistant is finally here. But why a woman?”
Liberty instructed the butler to let the assistant in. After he left, she replied, “There’s no rule that assistants have to be men. Women can do the job too. When Pedro talked about the base, he mentioned there were female trainees.”
“But very few,” Kathryn pointed out. “The training is brutal, and women tend to be more emotional. Some make it into the base, but almost none pass the assessment to become the Matriarch’s personal assistant.”
She had asked Pedro about it before, but he never shared details of the training. He insisted it was confidential—even the Matriarch wasn’t allowed to know.
Since female assistants were so rare, both women were eager to meet the new recruit. Anyone who passed the assessment and earned the role was just as capable as Pedro.
Soon, the butler led in a woman dressed in form-fitting black attire. She had short, cropped hair—almost like a man’s. Standing over 5’7″, she Read on agrokhabar net possessed a slim, model-like figure, a plain face, and piercing eyes that exuded sharpness and competence. Her movements were precise and efficient as she strode forward.
She followed the butler inside, her expression unreadable. But as she stopped before Liberty, her face softened with respect.
“Master.”
Liberty, slightly surprised, asked, “You already know who I am?”
“Yes, Master. I received your photo before leaving the island.”
After passing the assessment, trainees often waited years for placement. They were only assigned when a new Matriarch took over or required an assistant. Pedro had been selected early when the former Matriarch requested an aide for her successor. Now, it was this woman’s turn.
She retrieved a folded envelope from her pocket and handed it to Liberty with a respectful bow. “Master, this is my resume.”
Liberty took the envelope, unsealed it, and unfolded the document inside. It detailed the assistant’s training and assessment results, tracking her progress from the moment she arrived on the island until her departure.
Her real name wasn’t listed—only a code name: Makayla. She was thirty years old and had entered the island at the age of three. She had spent twenty-seven years in training.
After reading Makayla’s resume, Liberty passed it to Kathryn.
