Maria found herself perpetually puzzled by Charlie's unexpected kindness.
Ever since the night when the ring transported Charlie to the upper courtyard of Zilian Villa, his demeanor towards her had shifted drastically. Not only had he generously shared his elixirs, but he also extended the gift of longevity to Marius and others. He even set aside all his pressing matters to journey alongside her to the southern province.
As for Maria, her intention was simply to visit Erlang Mountain to honor her parents. But Charlie's actions surpassed all expectations, he purchased the Celestial Group, the proprietors of Erlang Mountain. What's more, he planned extensive renovations, ensuring a future where he could pay his respects to his parents.
For Maria, who possessed vast wealth herself, Charlie's actions transcended monetary value. His attentiveness and careful consideration indicated a deep concern for her. Her instincts didn't mislead her, Charlie held a genuine regard for her.
The debt of a life saved was only one factor, the more time they spent together, the more Charlie's sympathy for her three centuries of turmoil grew.
