Chapter 118 You Will Never Regret Your Decision

He finally raised his drooping head and looked at Vania with his misty eyes.

He didn’t know why, but he just knew this woman wouldn’t harm him.

Then again, could he really leave this place?

What about his adoptive father, though? Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Though the man was abusive, he still hoped he could have a decent life.

With that, he fell into entanglement once more. As he panicked, he wanted to hide in a corner.

Vania understood his worry instantly and comforted him, telling him that everything would be fine.

It wasn’t until he gradually relaxed that she advised, “I think I know what you want to say. Though he treats you poorly, you still want to thank him, am I right? What a sweet boy you are. I’m really proud that you can retain your kindness when they’ve been so horrible to you. I bet you’ll become a just man in the future.”

Future? He had never given his future any thought, but now, someone was encouraging him and even said that he’d have a future! With that, a seed of hope was planted in him.

He had only ever thought about surviving, but now, he wanted to think about the future.

Finally, he was willing to look Vania in the eye. However, uneasiness still surged beneath those eyes.

Tears began pooling in Vania’s eyes upon seeing his expression, and she swore to him, “Don’t worry, I will see to everything I’ve promised you. They won’t be mistreated.”

With that, she looked toward the drunk man with abhorrence. “I will pay you the amount you bought him for, and I’ll pay off all the debt you owe. However, from now on, you two no longer have anything to do with each other. I’ve already done everything humanly possible for the child’s sake. As for how you want to live the rest of your life, it’s all up to you.”

The drunk man instantly threw his every scheme and evil thoughts out the window upon hearing that someone would pay off all his debts.

Who cared whether the child was willing to leave or not?!

He was long done with raising this crib lizard, and it wasn’t as if he had the extra money to raise him. Besides, it wasn’t his own blood anyway.

At that, he rubbed his palms and asked eagerly, “Do you mean it?”

His greedy face had Vania snorting disdainfully at him before looking over at Leo, who immediately presented the drunk man with a briefcase full of cash.

The drunk man’s eyes beamed upon seeing the wads of cash in front of him, guffawing as he hugged the briefcase. He never even thought to spare the child a glance.

The little guy, on the other hand, felt bittersweet at the scene.

It turned out he was truly worthless, and nobody would care about him.

The world was massive, yet he had no place in it.

He was a sentimental child, so he’d undoubtedly feel despondent seeing something like this.

Vania felt his pain too, and she didn’t know what to make of it. Who’d have thought he’d still have such a temperament when he had suffered so much?

To that, Vania comforted him while comforting herself. She said, “You did well, and everyone should learn from you. I’m also proud of you, but you’re only five now. You still have a long road ahead, and I can’t let you stay here. Trust me—you’ll never regret coming with me.”

After a long while, the child finally nodded with a barely noticeable degree.

Elated, Vania turned to Henry. “Henry, I want you to stay back and deal with everything else.”

“You can count on me, Boss.”

With that, she turned away from the little guy and handed Leo two strands of hair—hers and the child’s.

Leo got it right away and left with the others in two shakes.
