My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

While he said this, Hendrix's face was blank. All Aurelia saw was his emotionless face. He was indifferent and couldn't be offended.

Aurelia knew he wasn't in a great mood. Given the current situation, it was inappropriate for them to speak against him. Aurelia nodded and mumbled, "I understand." "Let's go home," Hendrix said.

With that, he turned around and walked towards us. He was ready to leave and allowed the children to walk ahead.

Wynn always obeyed Hendrix's instructions. He walked out without hesitating while Aurelia followed him closely from behind.

After taking two steps forward, Aurelia stopped in her tracks and looked back at the thin boy, she was unwilling to leave.

Hendrix followed her gaze and thought for a moment before lowering his head to ask, "Do you want to take him with us?"

Aurelia pursed her lips and furrowed her brows. Staring at the boy, she mumbled, "He's so thin. If he stays here, he won't be able to eat well. Aunt Emma once said that orphans had things the hardest. I want to help him..."

She very carefully said that last sentence, she was afraid of offending Hendrix.

Aaron had probably taught her that she shouldn't be unreasonable during certain occasions. Even though she was unwilling to leave, she wouldn't act spoiled like she was at home.

Hendrix had always been a man of his word. I thought that he would not allow for any exceptions, but he was unexpectedly compassionate.
