Chapter 339 Orphanage

Perhaps due to the snowfall, I was in a good mood. I quickly changed into warm clothes and prepared to go out for a walk.

My mother and Maxwell returned to the living room, where a steaming breakfast was ready. While I ate my yogurt, Maxwell asked, “Are you going to the office today?”

I nodded and asked in return, “Aren’t you going?”

He raised an eyebrow and replied, “It’s the weekend. Don’t expect me to work overtime. I have other plans.”

I had forgotten that it was the weekend today. It suddenly dawned on me. I asked, “Are you both going to the orphanage?”

My mother and Maxwell both nodded, and my mother asked, “Are you coming too?”

Earlier, I had forgotten it was the weekend and had planned to go to the office. However, the snow today had put me in a good mood, and I could not help but think about what Idris had mentioned earlier about the wintersweets in the backyard of the Young’s old manor.

Seeing me silent, neither of them pressed for an answer. After breakfast, we all packed our things, and they both left.

I had intended to go to the office, but the beautiful snow outside made me feel playful. So, without really thinking, I decided to follow my mother and Maxwell and joined them as they left the house.

During the car ride, I noticed that we were not heading directly to the orphanage. Curious, I asked, “Are we going somewhere else first?”
