ire turned to ine and said, “Mom, you can take some time to think this over by yourself. Charlie and I will head out first. Just remember to take out the noodles Charlie cooked for you.”
Once she finished speaking, ire looked at Charlie and said, “Let’s go.”
Charlie gave a slight nod, and together they left the vi, making their way toward the orphanage.
On their way, Charlie stopped to buy a bouquet of flowers and a fruit basket, along with a handwritten greeting card for Mrs. Lewis.
When they arrived at the Aurous Hill Welfare Institute, Charlie parked his car along the roadside. He found himself lost in thought as he gazed at the slightly worn door of the orphanage, feeling as though he had stepped back in time.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Standing there, he tried to conjure up memories from his past. The memories that came flooding back were filled with warmth, happiness, and cherished moments that were forever etched in his heart.
He vividly recalled the day he first entered the orphanage.<fn88fa> Updates are released by find?novel</fn88fa>
At the age of eight, after losing his parents, he found himself alone on the streets. Mrs. Lewis had appeared like an angel, rescuing him and leading him to the orphanage. She held his hand gently and pointed toward the door, saying with love, “Child, don’t be afraid. This will be your home from now on.”
Even after all these years, thatforting scene remained fresh in his mind.
As he reminisced, a rare smile spread across Charlie’s face, brightening his expression.
Noticing his happiness, ire remarked, “You look really cheerful today.”
Charlie nodded and replied, “Yes, I’ve been so worried since Mrs. Lewis fell ill. I tried to raise funds for her treatment but couldn’t even gather enough for her kidney transnt. If it weren’t for fate, Mrs. Lewis would have left this world a long time ago.”
ire remembered the time when Charlie had desperately pleaded with her grandmother for money to cover Mrs. Lewis’s medical expenses.
In that moment, she felt a deep sense of sympathy for him, a man who had faced unjust hardships since childhood.
Unfortunately, she wasn’t in a position to help him back then.
Fortunately, fate smiled upon Mrs. Lewis. A kind-hearted individual stepped in to cover her medical costs and even arranged for her to be treated at Fairview Hospital, one of the best in the country.
As these thoughts crossed her mind, ire asked, “By the way, you mentioned that someone helped pay for Mrs. Lewis’s treatment. Who was that person? They must be incredibly generous. I can only imagine how much it costs for treatment at Fairview Hospital—probably around two to three million dors, right?”
Charlie nodded and said, “Yes, I heard the total was around three million. However, I don’t know who covered her expenses. I believe that person was someone Mrs. Lewis had helped in the past.”
Charlie couldn’t reveal to ire that he was the one who had paid for Mrs. Lewis’s treatment. At that time, he had felt utterly powerless andcked the means to exin how he hade up with three million dors.
With a sigh, he added, “If I had known I could make such money offering Feng Shui advice, I would have started long ago when Mrs. Lewis was sick.”
As they continued their conversation, they suddenly heard a cheerful voice calling out to Charlie, “Brother Charlie!”
Turning around, Charlie saw a tall, slender figure emerging from the orphanage.
It was Lisa.
Though a few years had passed since theyst met, Lisa had blossomed into a young adult!
Now in her early twenties, she stood over 1.7 meters tall, her figure resembling that of a model.
Even in her simple attire, and without any makeup, she radiated a confident charm that captivated everyone around her.
Charlie couldn’t help but be amazed by the transformation of this young girl. She had truly grown into a remarkable woman. Was this really the same little girl who used to follow him around the orphanage?
