Gary laughed bitterly, pointing toward the entrance of the welfare home not far away. “During the day, a few thugs would occasionally come over, blocking the entrance with sticks, threatening us so we couldn’t even go out to buy groceries.”

“At night, they would cut our electricity wires, smash water pipes, and even cause a ruckus outside, making it impossible for the elderly to rest. They’ve almost driven our inhabitants to have nervous breakdowns!”

As he spoke, he glanced at Amber, seeming to want to say more, but ultimately remained silent..

Amber noticed Gary’s dilemma. She said with sincerity. “Mister Huff, when I was expelled from the Chesire family, I lived in the welfare home for over half a year. You took very good care of me, and I’ve always rerhembered that. If there’s anything I can do, please feel free to

ask.”

Gary gritted his teeth and finally spoke in a low voice, “We can’t afford to offend the Ol‘ Mare Construction Group. Our welfare home is definitely going to close down. But those elderly people in the home… Miss Chesire, you are a capable person. Can you think of a way to give those old folks a way out? On behalf of those elderly people, I thank you!”

He bowed deeply to Amber, tears welling up in the eyes of the middle–aged man in his fifties.
