CHAPTER 353
Chapter 353 “It is not easy for the director either. She truly has no funds to treat you sickly children, the cleaninglady sighed as she tidied the area. Gina did not speak, but she listened attentively. At that moment, she decided that she would make alot of money in the future and donate to the Clago Orphanage so the director could have the fundsto help children with disabilities. She had achieved that goal. Gina remembered the first time she donated to the Clago Orphanage, the director refused, saying,“Gina, now that you are making money, the most important thing is to live your own life well. Theexpenses of the orphanage are still manageable.” Even though Gina tactfully expressed that donating millions of dollars was just a tiny fraction of herwealth and would not deplete her substantial assets, the director refused. Gina had to persistently plead for a long time before she finally succeeded in making the donation. Previously, she had donated 300 million dollars to the Clago Orphanage, far exceeding thetreatment costs for the children who needed medical care. Gina donated it without hesitationbecause she knew the director had a great vision of creating a world without homeless or hungrychildren. The money Gina gave was not only used to construct the orphanage. The director also often madecharitable donations. Max stopped the car and saw Gina sitting in the back seat, seemingly sleeping soundly. He exited the car and opened the back door, intending to wake Gina. However, he was momentarilylost in thought as he looked at her long, curled eyelashes. This scene felt familiar to him. Suddenly, he felt the urge to touch Gina’s face, but just as he was about to, Gina slowly opened hereyes. To avoid awkwardness, Max redirected the hand that was about to touch Gina’s face to her shoulderand said, “Hey, what a coincidence. I was just about to wake you. We have arrived at my house.” Gina raised her eyes and saw a European-style villa in front of her.
“Did you sleep well just now?” Max asked. “Yes, I even had a dream,” Gina replied casually. “What did you dream about? Can you tell me? It was not about Gabriel, was it?” Max asked, histone slightly sour. “No, it was kind of like a memory dream, a mix of real and unreal events. I dreamed about my daysat the orphanage when I was a child,” Gina said as she looked up to observe Max’s expression. She thought most people would be curious and ask her something upon hearing the word“orphanage,” but Max did not seem surprised by the revelation. She thought she would soon find out whether Max was indeed the son of that couple. Following Max into the villa, he knocked on the study door. “Come in,” a gentle female voice called from inside. Max opened the door, revealing Faith, who was sitting at the desk reading a book. She thought itwas only Max coming back and did not look up until Max said, “Mom, I brought a friend home. Shesaid she wanted to meet you.” Faith looked up and was stunned by Gina’s beauty. She greeted, “Hello.” 1/3 10:23 Fri, May 31 M Chapter 353 “Hello, Mrs. Griffiths. My name is Gina,” Gina replied politely. Faith was slightly taken aback upon hearing the name Gina. Max said, “Mom, why don’t you chat with Gina for a while? I will stay outside.” Gina felt Max intentionally avoided the situation and thought, ‘Why?’ .47% +5 She did not understand but did not ask much, either. Watching Max leave and close the door, Ginaheard Faith say, “Miss Miller, please have a seat.” Gina sat down as she was told. “Miss Miller, if you have any questions, feel free to ask,” Faith prompted with a smile as she put
down her book. Although she was over forty, she was still very beautiful and dignified. Gina got straight to the point and asked, “I want to know if Max is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Jefferson.” They were the well-educated couple who had once adopted Gina for a while. Recalling the past, Faith became slightly sad and said, “Yes.” Confirming that Max was the boy she had been looking for all along, Gina felt a bit happy. He wasstill alive and had not been dismembered and discarded. This was the best news. It seemed shewas right when she felt that Max’s eyes resembled Mr. Jefferson’s when she first saw him. However, as an adult, his appearance did not resemble Mr. and Mrs. Jefferson at all. Gina thought this was not surprising. Max might have had plastic surgery. “I heard him mention you before. He always said that he actually had a sister.” Faith said. Gina was stunned. When Mrs. Jefferson brought her home, Max did not like her. At that time, Max was not called Max yet… Gina asked, “What has he experienced all these years?” Faith sighed and began to narrate, “Back then, when his family was massacred, I was actually thefirst one to discover the scene. “I was good friends with Mrs. Jefferson. That day, I went to visit her at her place as usual. But Idiscovered a house full of bodies and Max was the only one with a heartbeat. I was about to takehim to the hospital when the murderer, who had not yet left, found us. “The murderer was very well covered up, and I did not know his identity. I had to escape with Max,who was barely alive. Fortunately, with the help of Mr. Willie, I managed to save Max. Since then,Max has been my child. He needed a new identity to protect him because the one who killed hisparents knew that leaving any roots would bring endless trouble. So, when Max grew up, I had himundergo plastic surgery to change his looks to resemble Mr. Willie. You might think Max looks a bitmixed-race, but Max was already a very handsome child…” “Is Mr. Willie your husband?” Gina asked. That is Willie Atkinson. novelbin
“Yes,” Faith nodded in response. Ten years ago, she met Willie in Shyran, and Willie said it was loveat first sight for him.
