Chapter 651 He Wanted to Give Her a Home
Paul furrowed his white brows and looked closer at the picture. He became flabbergasted when he gazed at Josie again, who was grinning widely.
Josie tilted her head. “I thought she resembled me too when I first saw her picture. Not just me, but many others think so too. Unfortunately, I don’t have a picture of myself when I was younger. Pop, do you remember how I looked when I was young?”
In the picture, Liana stood on a green pasture under the sunlight, beaming from ear to ear. Her aura differed from Josie, who used to be shy when she was a girl.
Nonetheless, they looked like twins.
Paul scrutinized the picture and wiped away the dust on it. “You two look very alike…”
Suddenly, Paul was reminded of the scene when he first saw Josie back then..
That year, a nurse spotted a sick girl, aged around eight, outside the hospital. Her head was severely damaged. Paul was her doctor-in-charge, and she only regained consciousness half a month later.
When she woke up, she stared at Paul with a lost look. Her eyes were filled with confusion, yet they were bright and clear. “Who are you? Where am I?” She asked timidly.
Paul’s heart softened at once.
Even after the girl was completely healed, the police couldn’t find her family. The hospital specially held a discussion and came to no conclusion. Finally, Paul stood up and uttered in a moderate yet determined voice. “I’ll adopt the child and take care of her.”
He was still young at that time, and his son was only five years old. So, no one expected he would voluntarily adopt the child.
Later, some asked Paul why he did so. Paul answered with mixed emotions, “I’ve been looking after this child for a month, and I’m the only one she knows. I can’t bear to send her to the orphanage. I want to give her a home.”
Jenny was dissatisfied with Paul’s decision and became very harsh towards Josie.
Paul thought he would return Josie to her parents if they came looking for her, but no one had come for her even after she graduated from university.
