The Almighty Dominance

Chapter 80

When Alex returned Josephine to the orphanage, Ruth and the children were anxiously gathered near the doorway, their faces lighting up at the sight of her.

As she stepped inside, the younger kids rushed forward, wrapping their small arms around her waist.

"Big sister Jo, we were so worried!" one of them exclaimed, tears glistening in her eyes.

"Did they hurt you?" another asked, his voice trembling.

Josephine knelt down, enveloping them in a warm embrace "I'm okay, really," she assured them softly." Everything's alright now."

Rudyard stood a little apart from the group, his eyes meeting Alex's.

"Thank you for bringing her back."

Alex smiled gently, placing a reassuring hand on the boy's shoulder.

"You did the right thing by calling me. You helped save her.

The boy's face brightened with a mix of pride and relief.

As the children led Josephine inside, chattering excitedly, she turned back to glance at Alex lingering by the doorway.

"Aren't you coming in?" she asked, a hint of something hopeful in her tone.

He shook his head lightly. "I have some things to take care of."

Her gaze searched his for a moment. "Will I see you again?

"Count on it," he replied with a soft smile.

She nodded, her eyes reflecting gratitude and something deeper. "Thank you, Alex. For everything."

He watched as she disappeared into the warmth of the house, the door closing gently behind her.
