Chapter 1003
Adeena brought a lot of snacks and toys that were loved by children, so the orphans jumped and ran around happily.
She was supposed to leave after sending Grapie there.
However, she suddenly felt reluctant when she saw the little girl’s clear eyes.
Half an hour later, a married couple would come and adopt a girl. Grapie looked so cute, so she would probably be adopted.
Adeena wanted to know which couple would become Grapie’s parents.
“Ms. Adeena, can you stay with me a little longer?”
Grapie tugged on Adeena’s sleeve and spoke pitifully.
Adeena carried her. “Of course.”
A four–year–old girl hid at a corner not far away; it was Cherry who had left angrily earlier.
She used to be everyone’s favorite child in the orphanage, but after Grapie grew older, everyone only had eyes for Grapie.
When visitors came to spread their love, they would give all the delicious and fun things to Grapie first.
Whenever a married couple came to adopt a child, they would want to take Grapie home.
However, those couples ultimately wanted to adopt a boy, so although Cherry had been jealous of Grapie all these years, she never went too far.
That was, until yesterday. She had heard from Mama Sherry that a married couple wanted to adopt a healthy child, but the remaining boys in the orphanage were disabled, so they had to adopt a girl.
She knew that this was her chance.
Hence, she tricked Grapie into going out early in the morning, but Grapie came back before the interested married couple arrived.
