"You didn't treat me like this when you locked me up in the conference room and wanted me to bleed to death." I sat down and looked at her. Even if I knew that Gina and Jeremy may be sentenced to life imprisonment, there was no emotional response in my heart. They were my parents, but they were like two unrelated people to me. Gina held the receiver and said excitedly, "It was your father who asked me to do this. I had nothing in the past few years, so I could only listen to him!" "Hehe, he hasn't been my father since long ago." I held the receiver and looked at Gina through the tempered glass, "If it weren't for my good luck, I wouldn't be sitting here talking to you today." If Patrick hadn't gone to find me. I would have been dead. During the two weeks in the hospital, the doctor said that if I had been sent to the hospital half an hour later, I might had died. When she heard that someone saved me, Gina's eyes got wet again. "Charlotte,

"Yes," I answered without hesitation. This matter was a little sudden to me, but since I had already agreed, I had to do it. And I had convinced myself thousands of times in my heart. Now, no matter who asked me, I would answer without hesitation, "Yes". Lisa put the chopsticks in her mouth, frowned, and looked at me. After a while, she said, "But I don't think you are happy at all about this. Unlike back then, when you and Patrick just lived together, you..." "Stop." I interrupted Lisa decisively. "It's all in the past. He's married to Kelsi. There is nothing to say." "But..." "Let's talk about something else. I have good news." In order to stop Lisa from continuing, I said to her, "Gina and Jeremy are not my biological parents." "Really?!" Lisa was shocked by my words. I told her about the recent events. Lisa's face was full of surprise. "Oh, I can't believe you didn't tell me about such a big thing! Do you still take me as

The teacher's words put me into an extremely awkward situation. Moreover, I needed to fill out the birthday, workplace, blood type, and so on of Glenn's father. Helplessly, I could only call and ask Shelton item by item. When I asked about Shelton's birthday, he told me it was November 13th. I didn't realize that Shelton's birthday was coming in a few days until I finished writing that! I wouldn't know about this at all if I hadn't filled in the form that day. When I finished filling in the table and was going to pay the tuition fees, the teacher told me that Shelton had already paid. It was a private kindergarten, and the tuition was nearly 5,000 dollars a semester. Hearing the teacher's words, I felt a little surprised. "How long would his payment sustain?" The teacher browsed through the records and said, "He had paid the fees for the remaining one and a half years." "..." Since he had paid, it was impossible for me t

Soon school was over. Glenn walked in the front with a small schoolbag on his back. Seeing both of us, he opened his arms and ran out. "Mom! Shelton!" The child's voice was loud. Hearing Glenn call him "Shelton, " the rich ladies looked at us again. Shelton seemed like didn't hear that. Touching Glenn's head, he asked, "How's the kindergarten today? Have you made any good friends?" "Yes!" Glenn got in the car with us and Shelton started the car. Sitting in his own child seat, Glenn had been talking about what had happened at kindergarten all the way. Glenn's previous kindergarten in Town S was just an ordinary public kindergarten. The entertainment facilities were not as good as these here. The food and drinks, including class arrangements, were certainly not as good as these at this high-class private kindergarten. Everything here was amazing and new to Glenn. On the way home, we passed through the busy area of City Y.

After I agreed, it seemed that Shelton just wanted to say something over the phone, but I heard another cell phone rang over there. "Wait a minute, I'll take a call." Shelton didn't hang up the phone. I heard him picked up another phone and said, "I'll be there right away." After that, he said to me over the phone, "Sorry, the hospital picked up an emergency patient. I need to go there for a while." "Okay, go ahead." I responded. Hanging up the phone, I soon heard the sound of Shelton opening the door outside. I also opened the door. Shelton had already finished dressing and was waiting for the elevator. When he saw me, he smiled and came over to hug me. "Wait for me to come back, remember the birthday present you promised me." "Yes." I nodded and hugged him. "I'll wait for you to come back." Although Shelton said that the birthday gift would be to accompany him one day, I still felt it would be no good if I had nothing to give him.
