"But these are things you only need to do when you grow up. Children don't need to worry about them. From now on, you can laugh when you want to laugh and cry when you want to cry."
"I guarantee you will never be without a home again."
"From now on, this place is your home."
The girl was stunned, as if she didn't understand Selena's words.
The other children also stared in amazement at the beautiful and gentle girl before them, as if they were in a dream.
The girl widened her eyes and timidly asked, "My home?"
Selena smiled and replied, "Yes, your home."
The girl was caught off guard and burst into tears, but quickly wiped them away and tried to smile, "Thank you..."
Through the pale and weak face before her, Selena seemed to see her own childhood self.
She smiled and reached out, embracing the child in her arms and gently patting her back, "You don't have to endure it anymore. No one will dare to bully you in the future."
The girl stiffened in Selena's warm embrace for a while, then suddenly opened her mouth and burst into tears.
This cry seemed to open a certain switch, and the other children were also infected and began to cry one after another.
The principal and several teachers stood on the side, with moist eyes watching.
Leia took the gifts prepared by the butler from the car and handed them out to the group of children one by one.
Each one received their own gift, held it tightly, and looked at Selena with joy and nervousness.
The principal walked over and said, "Lady Selena, please hang the sign for this home yourself."
Selena looked at the sign that had been made.
It was not very elaborate, but very warm and simple at first glance.
Selena took the scissors and cut off the red flower ball. With the help of others, she hung the sign up.
The words "Heartfelt" were reflected in the innocent and nervous eyes of the children.
Some of them didn't even know what this words meant, but they all felt an unprecedented warmth.
Selena looked up at the sign and smiled slightly.
She had only one wish left to fulfill.
When they left "Heartfelt", it was already noon.
Leia looked at Selena's tired face and said, "Madame, Young Master said not to tire you out too much. Let's go home and rest first."
Selena closed her eyes on the sofa and softly responded.
Leia drove back to the castle.
After lunch, Selena went upstairs for a nap.
In the afternoon, she continued sitting in the garden and drawing design plans.
Patrick called, "How did things go at the orphanage?"
Selena replied while wearing earphones and drawing, "Very smoothly. He helped me take care of everything, and I just went to get ribbon-cutting in the end."
Patrick knew who Selena was referring to.
Only that man could give her gifts without making her feel burdened.
Patrick remembered the Soo family who had come looking for them and sighed slightly.
Selena noticed his unusual mood and asked, "Is something wrong with Capital?"
"No," Patrick replied in a gentle voice, "It's just the research institute. They called a few times asking when you would come back to work."
