True Love Deserves a Second Chance by Nox Shadow

Chapter 454 He Likes You

Hearing the word "orphanage," Alexander's eyes flickered.

He had a special feeling for this place because Daisy was also adopted from an orphanage.

Over the years, the Cross Family had done a lot of charity work in this area.

He instantly felt more sympathy for Elodie.

Alexander asked in a deep voice, "How is Elodie's family situation?"

Tommy shook his head, "Not good at all. Her father was imprisoned for injuring someone due to gambling and owed a lot of money. Her mother works to pay off his debts.

Elodie is in poor health and needs heart medication. When we were in school, as the class president, I wanted to apply for a scholarship for her, but she refused, saying others needed it more.

Because of her illness, she got into college but was expelled due to failing the medical examination.

Elodie is now working here alone to make money. Life is tough for her, but she is very stubborn and never lets us help her."

Hearing this story, Alexander's initial pity for Elodie turned into heartache.

He also understood the root cause of Elodie's illness.

He stared at Elodie's delicate face, squinting slightly, and said, "Let her rest and recover. I'll cover her medical expenses. Just tell her I want to use her for an experiment, and all costs will be waived."

Tommy looked at Alexander in surprise, "Why are you helping her? She has nothing to do with you."

Alexander chuckled, "Do you need a reason to do good deeds? The Cross Family has helped many people in need over the years. One more won't make a difference."

Hearing these words, Tommy's attitude towards Alexander changed significantly. He had always thought Alexander was just a playboy.

He didn't think he had any real feelings.

But now, it seemed he had misunderstood.

Tommy looked at Alexander sincerely and said, "Mr. Cross, thank you on behalf of Elodie and her mother."

Alexander tapped his head with the medical record, "You're still young. Don't judge people by their appearance."
