Chapter 1005
“Ma’am, do you want to adopt me?” Grapie slowly asked as she opened her eyes wide.
Adeline was stunned before she smiled gently and asked, “Are you willing to be adopted?”
Grapie pointed at Cherry on the side. “Cherry’s more obedient and understanding than me. Can you adopt Cherry instead?”
She knew that Cherry was desperate for a home and parents.
She could give this opportunity to Cherry.
“Grapie, what nonsense are you talking about?” The director purposely put on a stern look. “Adeline likes you, and it’s your lucky day. Why are you pushing your luck away?”
Grapie lowered her head and anxiously clenched her fingers.
“Hmph! All of you don’t like me!” Cherry shouted in anger before she turned around and ran away.
Candon subconsciously thought that his wife was right. The girl whose name was Cherry was too cunning, and the ruthlessness in her eyes was too strong. A normal family like them could not afford to raise a child like that.
“Grapie, I like you, and only you. I can’t give the feeling away.” Adeline gently tussled the little girl’s soft hair. “If you like me too, can you be our daughter? I don’t have a child. Once you come with us, you’ll be our only daughter. You’ll have your own room, you’ll go to preschool with other kids, and you’ll have a lot of toys. Most importantly, you’ll have parents and a warm family.”
Grapie’s eyes lit up. “Will I really have my own home?”
“Of course!”
Adeline’s smile became much kinder.
