Cooper family vi. He held Loraine’s hand and said, “Fortunately, we now know their ns and can


    take the initiative. Let’s go back to Mrs.


    Harvey and tell her to prepare in advance. Whatever they have in mind, we’ll be ready with a


    response.”


    As his hand held Loraine’s, she couldn’t help but recall all the tense moments they had shared just


    now. Her face turned slightly red, but she did not pull away from his grasp.


    “Well… Let’s head back to the orphanage first! Mrs. Harvey had a fright today, and it’s not ideal for us


    to stay out too long.”


    The two walked hand in hand all the way back, seemingly closer than they were when they first arrived


    in the rustic countryside.


    By the time they returned to the orphanage, it was alreadyte in the evening.


    All the children had settled in their rooms to sleep, and Eloise had also retired to her room, having

    Marco didn’t say anything, and instead, tightened his grip on her hand.


    Silently, he apanied her back to their room.


    Their room had been specially prepared by Eloise, and was reminiscent of the one Loraine had stayed


    in as a child, though the bedding was much softer and clearly arranged with care


    Loraine sat at the table with her head lowered.


    “These past years, I haven’t returned to see Mrs. Harvey often, and ourmunication has been


    infrequent… Maybe that’s why she feels distant from me and didn’t inform me when something this big


    happened.”


    After Loraine was taken back to her family, they sent money to support the orphanage, and she had


    attempted to contact Eloise a handful of times, only hearing positive news. As a result, she had


    assumed that


    Eloise was leading a better life with the financial assistance from


    Torres family, and had no idea that she was being targeted by Judie.
