chapter 1578


    Charmine was helpless. She turned around to see Chloe ying with Chris.


    This was her first time seeing him gleefully having fun.


    The olddy had started ughtering the fish. She found it hard to refuse, and after a moment of


    thought, she walked into the kitchen and said, Til help you out."


    The olddy smiled at her serenely. "Alright, then."


    Meanwhile, Chris noticed that only Chloe and her grandmother were home. "Chloe, where are your


    parents?" he asked.


    Chloe stopped what she was doing. "I don''t have parents,” she confessed. " I grew up with my


    Grandma."


    She heard from her grandmother that before she turned one, her parents left her in the vige.


    Grandma saw and carried her home, raising her on her own.

    Actually, she knew who her parents were...


    Since they did not like her, she would not go looking for them.


    Chris looked at her bright-eyed. He did not expect her childhood to be simr to his.


    Although he had a father and also found himself a nice Mommy like Charmine, Chloe only had her


    Grandma and her dog.


    Not knowing what to say nor how tofort her, Chris resolutely dered, "It’s okay, I''m a big brother


    to you. If anyone bullies you from now on, let me know, and I''ll beat them up for you!" 1 "Hehe!"


    Chloe did not seem too bothered by her past. Chris'' deration, however, did make her giggle, and she


    smiled with her eyes.


    "Okay! I''ll definitely tell if anyone ever bullies me in the future!”


    When Chris heard that, he felt stronger and said, "That''s right. With me around, I won''t let anyone bully


    you."


    Chloe blushed. After a while, she asked, "Chris, are you here with just your mother? Where is your


    father?”


    Recalling his douche of a father, Chris helplessly said with a hand on his face, "My parents had a


    divorce, and he doesn’t want my Mommy anymore. My Mommy is sad and brought me here to rx."


    Chloe reached out to ruffle his head. "It''s alright, Chis. I''ll keep youpany.” "Yeah!" Chris was upset


    but was instantly cheered up again. He continued to y with Chloe.


    All this while, Charmine assisted the olddy, and they made dinner quickly.


    The night had fallen, and the buzzing of insects was heard. The four of them sat under the pavilion in


    the front yard and had dinner with a loving atmosphere.


    Charmine found this slower pace of living very rxing.


    She enjoyed the night breeze while eating the meals made by wood and fire. This was a pleasant


    experience.


    Meanwhile, she made an astounding revtion that from the moment shended, her heart seemed to


    have slowly settled into ease. The troubles from the city did not once cross her mind.


    After the meal, Charmine and Chris parted with them, and they walked along the clear stream.


    Small critters sang their songs from wherever they were. The breeze was refreshing, carrying the scent


    of flowers with it.


    Chris blinked his big and bright eyes. He looked up at the sparkling sky filled with countless twinkling


    stars. It was like the gxy; utterly beautiful and romantic.


    Chris said, "Mommy, this is my first time seeing a sky like this."


    Charmine looked up at the sky with her clear eyes. She was surprised. ''This is how the sky looks like."


    "Huh?" Chris was curious. "Why have I never seen it?"


    Charmine exined, ''That''s because the sky in the city is polluted. It''s dull. The rural area is pure and


    unpolluted. Therefore, the sky keeps its most beautiful side to those who are honest and kind..."


    Chris nodded half-understood. He then asked, his expression earnest," Mommy, can I live here from


    now on?"
