There was only a kid's bed and toys in the room. The wardrobe had nothing but children's clothing, and the bathroom was stocked with basic necessities.
That was how Sophie had prepared everything.
However, Gabrielle was still satisfied. After all, they didn't give Sophie the time to arrange anything.
"Mrs. Morris, you informed me that you'd bring Mr. Star with you two days ago. I didn't have the time to prepare, so I only bought these to fulfill his basic needs. If you need anything else, just inform me. I will get them right away." Sophie smiled awkwardly. After all, that was all she could do.
"You have done a great job, Sophie. After all, we informed you at the last minute. We can always buy the things we need. If Star is not happy with his room, we can redecorate it later. It doesn't matter. I'm happy with what you have done." Gabrielle smiled as she raked her eyes across the room. She was satisfied with the arrangements.
"Mrs. Morris, do you really think it's good?" Sophie asked nervously as she examined Gabrielle's face.
"Sophie, you have done an exceptional job. But I have certain things that I want to tell you about Star." Gabrielle looked at her intently.
"Yes, Mrs. Morris. What is it?" "Sophie, here is the thing." Gabrielle closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
"Star got injured in an accident; his back and waist are severely injured. He needs to rest at home for the time being. He has lost his memory. The poor boy has no idea about his past and what happened before. I saved him during the accident, so I spoke with Westley and decided to adopt him." She fell silent, hoping for Sophie to understand Star's special condition.
They had to handle him with care. After all, the boy was fragile. Gabrielle didn't want to stimulate him in any way and worsen his condition.
They hadn't told Sophie about all this on the phone before because she felt it was better to explain everything in person.
Sophie's heart softened when she heard about Star's condition. The poor boy had to go through a lot at such a young age.
"The poor boy has endured a lot of pain and suffering when he should be enjoying life and playing with friends. It's heartbreaking. Is he okay now?" Sophie couldn't wait to see him.
"Star is a very strong, smart, and sensible child. I don't want to mention anything about the past until he regains his memory. I hope you don't say anything either. Don't mention that he is from Bangkok, at least for the time being. It would only stimulate him." Sophie nodded in understanding.
"Mrs. Morris, don't worry. I won't do or say anything that would make little Star uncomfortable." Gabrielle smiled gratefully.
Just then, they heard movement downstairs. It looked like Remy and the others had come back.
Gabrielle peeked out of the window. As expected, Star and the others had arrived.
"Sophie, let's go downstairs. Star is here." Gabrielle grinned excitedly.
Sophie hurriedly followed her.
When they arrived downstairs, the medical staff carefully carried Star out of the ambulance and brought him inside the house.
Star was still unconscious.
"Mrs. Morris, Mr. Star is such an adorable boy!" Sophie gushed. She had already developed a fondness for the little boy.
Star looked peaceful in his sleep. He looked handsome and had an innate charm.
"Well, Star is good-looking, obedient, and sma
rt. I'm sure you'll like him." Gabrielle felt that anyone would like an adorable child like him.
"Of course, I will." Sophie was sure that she would like Star and they would get along with each other in the future.
"Thank you, everyone. The boy's room is on the third floor. Please carry him upstairs." Although it was their duty to carry Star upstairs, she still felt bad about it.
