As Stephen Thompson concluded the call, the dean respectfully inquired, “Steward Thompson, what should I do now?”
With a sigh, Stephen Thompson responded, “Now that the young master is aware, there’s no need for you to remain in the orphanage. You should return to your position with the Wade family. I will ensure everything is arranged for you. Thank you for your hard work all these years!”<fn3f2b> Get full chapters from </fn3f2b>
The dean immediately bowed and said, “Steward Thompson, I have been waiting to serve Young Master Charlie since the second son’s passing. I am dedicated to serving him, even unto death!”
Stephen Thompson nodded in acknowledgment, saying, “You all are exceptional individuals who have worked diligently for many years. Spending over a decade in a small orphanage has been challenging and somewhat demeaning. Take some time to rest now.”

The dean nodded in agreement: “Indeed, the young master has faced many hardships since childhood, which has developed this admirable quality in him—something I rarely see in the children of the wealthy.”
Stephen Thompson smiled slightly and added, “Perhaps it was not entirely negative for the young master to experience hardship in the orphanage. After all, he is the only son of the second son and deserves this opportunity!”
With a cheerful wave, Stephen Thompson continued, “Alright, I’m heading back to Eastcliff. You should hold meetings with the team over the next few days and prepare to hand over the orphanage to the relevant authorities in Aurous Hill. Tomorrow, I will provide you with a sum of money, and you can return to your family and find a nice resort to rest.”
The dean bowed once more, expressing his gratitude: “Thank you, Steward Thompson!”
Then, he inquired, “What about Mrs. Lewis? She was unaware of everything before but now knows quite a bit.”
Stephen Thompson replied, “She has taken care of the young master for many years and deserves to retire and focus on her life. I have a manor in Canada that I will give to her for her retirement. She should not have to see the young master again until he sessfully inherits the Wade family.”
The dean added, “Mrs. Lewis has an adopted daughter who also works in the orphanage. She grew up alongside the young master and is still oblivious to everything. I fear Mrs. Lewis may not want to leave her behind.”
Stephen Thompson sighed and advised, “Speak to the girl, share what is necessary, and then let her apany her adoptive mother to Canada. There are many Chinese people there, and thenguage barrier is minimal. They can easily start a new life together. I’ve looked into the girl’s background; she is clean and has a fondness for the young master, so she would never act against him.”
“Understood!”
That night, the Aurous Hill Welfare Institute underwent a significant transformation. Staff members quietly packed their belongings as city officials arrived to take over the management.
No one understood why the entire team, from the dean to the cook, was being reced suddenly. Was there some major wrongdoing they were unaware of?
Little did they know, the staff operated like a well-trained army, having endured a long, drawn-out conflict, and it was now time for them to exit the stage with dignity.
Although Mrs. Lewis felt a deep reluctance to leave, she realized that, like Charlie, she had once been oblivious to the truth. Now, she knew about Charlie’s true identity as part of the Wade family.
With this newfound understanding, she recognized that she could no longer remain in the orphanage.
Now that she was aware of the truth, she couldn’t im ignorance. Being part of this situation meant she had to follow the Wade family’s directives.
Consequently, she decided to heed the dean’s instructions and temporarily relocate to Canada for her well-being.
As for Lisa, Mrs. Lewis chose not to reveal the full truth. Instead, she exined that the generous benefactor who had previously funded her medical treatment was also supporting her trip abroad for recovery, expressing her hope that Lisa would apany her.
Lisa, who regarded Mrs. Lewis as her own mother, readily agreed to this n and began preparing to travel with her.
Mrs. Lewis thought that once they arrived in Canada, she would share theplete story with Lisa.</p“when>
