He adopted her!

Peter would always remember how long his wife had been depressed when she found out she could not bear children at the hospital.

Even though they had married from an arranged marriage and had not fallen in love before they married. each other, they had developed very strong feelings for each other after being together.

It was more than just romantic or familial love.

Peter was open-minded and did not want to get a divorce. After Wendy had tried and failed to have children with various methods, they decided to adopt a child at an orphanage after discussing it with each other.

At the orphanage, the director brought out all the children and had them stand in a line.

Those children had either lost their parents or had been sent over by kind-hearted folk after being picked up from the streets.

They looked timid but were full of desire.

After all, as long as they got adopted, they would be able to leave that place. They would be able to go to a new family and have their own parents.

So, they did their best to show themselves off, hoping that Peter and Wendy would like them!

Yet, a skinny girl stood at the end of the line.

Her eyes were pretty and clean, and her skin was much fairer than anyone else.

The girl shook her head. “I don’t want to.”

Everyone else looked at her.

Everyone wanted to be adopted. The director had even said that this couple did not have children on their own. He had said that they came from a highly educated and stable family. Anyone who went with those. two would have a very good life.

Yet, that girl rejected Wendy!

“Why?” Wendy did not get angry and instead asked, “Do you not like me?”
