Twisted Marriage: Secret Loves (Gale and Shawn)
Chapter 842

Chapter 842

He adopted her!

Peter would always remember how long his wife had been depressed when she found out she could not bear children at the hospital.

Even though they had married from an arranged marriage and had not fallen in love before they married. each other, they had developed very strong feelings for each other after being together.

It was more than just romantic or familial love.

Peter was open-minded and did not want to get a divorce. After Wendy had tried and failed to have children with various methods, they decided to adopt a child at an orphanage after discussing it with each other.

At the orphanage, the director brought out all the children and had them stand in a line.

Those children had either lost their parents or had been sent over by kind-hearted folk after being picked up from the streets.

They looked timid but were full of desire.

After all, as long as they got adopted, they would be able to leave that place. They would be able to go to a new family and have their own parents.

So, they did their best to show themselves off, hoping that Peter and Wendy would like them!

Yet, a skinny girl stood at the end of the line.

Her eyes were pretty and clean, and her skin was much fairer than anyone else.

Wendy had immediately taken a liking to that girl.

“Little girl, are you willing to come back with us and be my daughter?” The girl shook her head. “I don't want to.”

Everyone else looked at her.

Everyone wanted to be adopted. The director had even said that this couple did not have children on their own. He had said that they came from a highly educated and stable family. Anyone who went with those. two would have a very good life.

Yet, that girl rejected Wendy!

“Why?” Wendy did not get angry and instead asked, “Do you not like me?”

The girl said, “I have parents. They will come to look for me.”

She was in an orphanage, so how could she still have parents? Wendy did not say that, worried she would make the child sad.

The girl was only four, after all. The girl did not know that much, and there was no way the girl knew what death meant.

Wendy merely patted the girl on the head. “You can come back with me and wait for your parents there.”

The girl blinked. “Can I really?”

“Of course, you can.”

The girl said, “Okay then. Thank you.”

She was polite, obedient, and well-mannered. The way she acted was not something an ordinary family would be able to nurture.

Peter and Wendy had not thought too much about it, merely feeling like they liked the child.

So, they had all the procedures done before they brought the girl back, naming her Gale.

As time passed, with how well they took care of Gale, Gale had gradually forgotten her past.

She lived in a happy and beautiful family. She did not even remember much about the orphanage.

She was Gale Warm.

When Peter snapped back to reality and looked at Aurum’s hopeful gaze, he said, “I can’t answer this question.”

"Mr. Warm..."

Peter said, “You should know very well that Gale can't go through anything else at this moment. If you're really on her side, then you should keep this to yourself for now. Look into it when the time is right.” Even though Peter did not answer it directly, Aurum was smart enough to see what the meaning behind those words was.

Peter said again, “If this is something that will absolutely benefit Gale, then you should go ahead and do it. I won't make things hard for you, and I won't stop Gale. However, what if returning to that family isn’t necessarily good for her? Aurum, what would you do?"

Those words snapped Aurum out of his fantasy.
