Chapter 1378


    Ivy looked today just as he had when she’d been crying.


    Liam sighed and went back to his room.


    That night, he waited for Rosalynn toe home so he could tell her that he’d be done with tutoring


    the next day.


    Rosalynn didn’t insist that he stay.


    She gently said to Liam, “Liam, thank you for helping Ivy these past few weeks. As you know, we’ve


    been having some issues at home and I’ve been swamped. Your help has been a lifesaver”


    Liam was silent for a moment, then asked a question he’d been meaning to ask for a while, “Are you


    doing okay?”


    Rosalynn obviously hadn’t expected this question. Her eyes instantly became wet, and she shook her


    head honestly, “To tell you the truth, things aren’t so great right now.” Liam nced at her and then


    nodded, “But I believe things will get better.”


    Rosalynn ruffled Liam’s hair, “With the new semester starting, make sure you work hard and stop


    getting on the principal’s bad side.”


    Liam chuckled and nodded, “Got it.”


    After their short chat, Liam went back to his room to rest.


    The next day, after hisst winter ss, Liam was sent back to his own home.


    Dirty alleyways, wires hung chaotically overhead.


    He slowly walked home and unlocked the door.


    The old house was naturally damp and moldy, and after being vacant for a while, it reeked of


    mustiness.


    He closed the door and stood in the living room for a while.


    He had always liked the quiet, but after living with Ivy and her family, he had gotten used to the noise.


    Now, back in his quiet home, he felt out of ce.


    Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    As Liam grew up, he realized this difort was because he’d grown used to being cared for. When


    he returned to his empty home, it naturally felt strange. He dropped his backpack, had some water, and


    then cleaned the house thoroughly. Afterward, he went to his room and began to catch up on his


    studies. And just like that, the kids started a new school term.


    Rosalynn made time toe.


    Felix personally picked up Molly’s new uniform and backpack.


    Seeing Molly in her new uniform, Rosalynn couldn’t help but cry, which confused Molly.


    To go to school, she needed a birth certificate.


    When Felix first found Molly, he hadn’t nned on adopting her, so he’d just been calling her Molly.


    Molly didn’t have an official name.


    Felix pondered all night, and finally named her Margaret.


    He hoped his Molly could have a stable life in the future.


    As for the name, Molly had no particr demands.


    Whatever name her father gave, she would take.


    The name Margaret sounded much better than the string of numbers her father had initially given her.


    Rosalynn first dropped Cory off at school.


    The principal saw Cory at the school gate and immediately approached.


    He’d long known about the troubles in this excellent student’s family. At first, he’d been extremely


    anxious, to the point where he couldn’t eat or sleep, fearing that the mother would no longer allow the


    child to attend school.


    He exchanged a nce with Rosalynn, gratitude written all over his face, “Rest assured, we’ll take


    good care of Cory Jared.”


    “You don’t need to worry too much, just treat him as usual.” Rosalynn responded gently, then bent


    down to look at Cory, “Baby, Mommy has to drop off your sister and Molly


    now.”


    “Bye, Mom.” Cory nodded.


    Then he gave Rosalynn a hug.
