Chapter 192

Thea paused for a moment, a proud expression on her face. “Hmph, I knew that troublemaker. He was a thug from this street, involved in stealing, robbing, and trafficking. He had been in jail several times. I even suspect that this child was kidnapped by him.”

Theo couldn’t help but nod, “Sister is really smart.”

Thea became more and more excited as she spoke, her eyes sparkling and her gestures animated. “I really liked that child, so I genuinely wanted to save him from the bottom of my heart. So, I had a sudden inspiration and I stepped forward, pointing at that child and saying he was my brother.”

“That thug was afraid that I would ruin his plan, and he at me fiercely, threatening me: ‘Little beggar, don’t falsely claim to be my brother. You don’t look anything like us…”

“I stood with my hands on my hips: Who says siblings have to look alike? I look like my mom, and my little brother looks like. my dad. We were poor at home, and my parents were not in good health, so my brother and I started begging from a young age… My name is Isabella. His name is…”

“My name was Theodore Moore.”

Thea mentioned this, and in her mind, the cleverness of that child came to mind, causing her to involuntarily smile with satisfaction. “That child is truly intelligent. I had just

trafficker believed us, and he became somewhat flustered.”

“I quickly approached the child while there were many people around. He was so fortunate and open–hearted that he even extended his hand for me to hold him.”

Thea reached this point and, for some reason, her eyes turned red and her voice choked up. “The child, who was five or six years old, was very underweight. Those damn traffickers abused this child, not giving him food, making him so malnourished that his face turned pale and his skin became thin. They would also beat him every day, targeting areas that couldn’t be seen, and pinch him. When I brought the child home and bathed him, I discovered that there wasn’t a single part of his body that was unharmed…”

Theo’s eyes shimmered with a glimmer of water, and he softly. said, “He met his sister, which was a great fortune amidst the misfortune.”

Thea shook her head, seeming remorseful. “After I brought him home, I originally hid him in my room. I just needed to buy some extra food for him every day and teach him how to read and write. The child was very intelligent, learned things quickly, had a good personality, and was also handsome, just a bit thin. I thought I could treat him well for a lifetime. But only after a month, my mother discovered him…”

Thea sniffed and sobbed, “My mother, she’s an extreme egoist. She doesn’t want me to use the money I earn for others. Every day, she uses very malicious words to scold me, scold him. She scolds me for being so young and acting like a mother, saying I have no shame. She scolds him for being an unwanted child, a burden to our family. My mother despises him for causing trouble for us and wants to drive him away
