However, to her surprise, not long after, she learned more about the truth from another channel. Emma and her two friends had an inescapable responsibility for the drowning incident. They were all attempted murderers.

However, the two sides had already taken the approach of reconciliation, so even if Mrs. Wade knew the truth, she didn’t choose to jump out and expose the scandal of the Watson family.

As for the situation in Gegar’s family, she was an outsider after all, so it wasn’t appropriate for her to interfere too much in other people’s affairs. Therefore, this matter was like a ripple. It shook the surface of the lake twice before it returned to calm.

It wasn’t until this time when Gegar was betrayed by her parents to the human traffickers that Mrs. Wade reflected on it. If she had helped this little girl more, perhaps her situation today would be completely different.

With this little bit of guilt in mind, Mrs. Wade had put in so much effort in this incident and promised to take over the siblings’ lives.

“You’re destined to return to China. It’s so far away. It’s too far to take care of the two children. Unless you want to take these two children back, but that’s obviously not realistic. So considering this situation, it’s more appropriate to hand them over to me.”

“Of course,” Mrs. Wade said straightforwardly, “if you’re worried, you can keep in touch with White. After all, he’s a very smart and brave child, and he won’t watch Gegar suffer.”

Mrs. Wade had a good reason, but Mrs. Le didn’t agree immediately.

“I think as the party involved, White’s opinion is the most important, so I want to talk to him about this first.”

Mama Le had thought that White would be angry after hearing this. After all, it was something they had promised, but now they suddenly went back on their word and entrusted the matter to a stranger. This was a very hurtful thing.

Especially since White was such a sensitive child, would he think of it as the Le family abandoning them?

“I’ll agree to it,” White said. “If you think it’s better this way, I’ll agree to whatever decision you make.”

White had seen what the Le family had done recently. He believed that the Le family would not set him up. Therefore, Mama Le must have considered everything before making this suggestion.

Although White was disappointed, he knew that Le Wan and the others had their own families, their own studies, and their own careers. They wouldn’t stay here for too long and would soon go back to live their own lives.

He was very reluctant to part with them, but the hardships he had experienced since he was young made him understand one thing very early on. That was not to ask for too much and to cherish the present.

Meeting the Le family was already their greatest fortune, especially after knowing that the Le family was going to take responsibility for them and perform surgery on Gegar. White knew that he couldn’t ask for more.

White’s understanding made Mama Le pity him even more. She almost called Mrs. Wade impulsively and told her not to bother her. Fortunately, her rationality stopped in the end. Just as Mrs. Wade said, it was obviously more appropriate for Mrs. Wade, the local tyrant, to take care of the two children.

Le Wan felt bad when she saw White pretending to be strong but secretly reddening in his eyes. However, she understood that all good things must come to an end, so she could only encourage him.

“Study hard while you’re still young. Only knowledge and education can change the fate of you and Gegar. Although China is very far from here, if you take a plane, you can arrive in a day. So I look forward to seeing you grow up one day.”

White lowered his head and wiped his tears.

“Don’t worry,” he promised. “I’ll cherish all the hard-earned opportunities.”

In the past, to earn food for his family, he had to take Gegar out to pick up trash every day. He had no way to go to school, so he had no chance to receive an education. Fortunately, he had sharp ears and eyes. When he was picking up trash, he learned from the tourists. It took him a few years to barely learn most of the common words, allowing him to have the basic ability to read and write.

Now, he finally had the chance to sit in the classroom and accept the baptism of orthodox knowledge. Even without Lewan’s special instructions, White would still work hard and study seriously..
