Chapter 11 

Jasper’s expression changed as he felt something was off, “Are all these people here to adopt Laura?” 

There were too many of them! 

Laura might be good–looking, but this was getting excessive. 

Xander picked up his phone and checked, and then smirked when he saw the trending topic on Twitter. They’re not here to adopt Laura; they’re here for the money.” 

Laura’s appearance had caught the attention of a highly acclaimed director, who had posted on Twitter asking for her contact information. He wanted her to play the role of the male lead’s. daughter in a disaster film he was preparing. 

All Hestryans knew how influential this director was. 

The male lead was also a winner of numerous awards. 

If Laura started out alongside the best actor, there was no limit to her future. 

Now, her name was trending all over the internet. 

Laura wasn’t just a pitiful little girl; she was also an emerging child star and a massive cash cow! 

Jasper was fuming. “If they can’t adopt her, they shouldn’t pretend to! Adopting her for money and taking her home… Who knows if they’ll treat her well!” 

Antonio watched as this group of people entered the orphanage with selfie sticks, acting like tourists as they smiled at the cameras. 

His eyes narrowed, and suddenly, he walked in. 

His three sons were bewildered. “Dad? What are you doing?” 

His tone was resolute. “Bringing her back home.” 

Laura sat in Grace’s lap, sobbing uncontrollably, her head spinning.. 

She couldn’t understand why she wasn’t Antonio’s daughter. 

She thought, “I didn’t make a mistake, but why am I not his daughter?” 

She couldn’t figure it out. 

“Did my mother lie to me?” she thought. 

Grace wiped away her tears and snot with tissues, patiently consoling her, “Alright, alright, Lala, stop crying. You’re breaking my heart with your tears. I know you’re sad now, but if you cry like this, you won’t look 

pretty anymore.”

Chapter II 

Laura was heartbroken, her chest aching and making it hard for her to breathe. 

Laura looked up at Grace with a pitiful expression. “Ms. Mitchell, I will never have a daddy again, right?” 

Grace’s expression changed, and she held Laura’s hand. “How can that be? You’re the smartest child in our orphanage, and smarter than all the other kids combined. You will have a daddy who is even better than this one. Alright?” 

Laura wasn’t comforted. 

So what if there was a better one? 

She just liked that man. 

He looked exactly like her. 

Seeing Laura fall silent, Grace knew she wasn’t making her feel better. She was about to say more when the hallway suddenly erupted with noise. 

“Everyone from the live–streaming channel, I’m in the hallway now. Let’s go find Lala, okay?” 

Laura blinked and looked toward the door, where people holding selfie sticks were looking around. 

Suddenly, someone locked eyes with her. “Found her!” 

Startled, she tried to get up, but the adults hurried over, filming her with their phones. 

“Oh my goodness, darling! You must be Laura! You’re even more beautiful in person than in the pictures. You’re stunning!” 

While they were saying these words, they didn’t really look at her. 

They were just looking at the image of her inside their live–streaming channel. 

Laura was baffled, glancing at Grace with a sense of fear. 

Grace immediately shielded her and spoke with caution. “Where did you all come from? Who let you in? Do you not understand the rules? No filming is allowed here. Turn off your livestream. immediately!” 

The live streamer exchanged glances, then put on smiles. “What are you doing, Ms. Mitchell? We’re here to adopt this child. We’re just seeing which one of us has a connection with her so we can take her home and take care of her. She’s an orphan, isn’t she?” 

Laura’s heart skipped a beat at their words. 

“They’re here to adopt me?she mused. 

She looked at the shrewd–looking adults, as well as the unfriendly older siblings. She shook her
