Chapter 868
Birthdays were super important for these kids
If they could have a cake on their birthday, they’d be over the moon.
Noah looked at the cake in his hands
Today wasn’t his birthday
.but a day when he hit rock bottom
“Uncle, you should eat it, you’ll feel much better after eating Paige’s cake” Britney’s shy voice brought him back to
reality
“How do you know I’m unhappy?” Noah asked, his lone much gentler
Britney was still shy
She was too young and due to her living environment, s
he wasn’t as articulate as ivy
“Your eyes are red, just like when I miss my mom and dad she whispered.

then sat down
taking a bite of the cake.
The cheap cake tasted extra sweet and greasy in his mouth,
but Noah finished it bite by bite
Britney and her brother stared wide–eyed,
and only after Noah finished, her brother grumbled, “You didn’t even ask if my sister wanted any
He know,
that since the cake was bought, his sister had been drooling over it.
He taught his sister to hold back, that even if their uncle offered it to her, she should refuse.
His teaching was all for naught
With the cake gone.
Noah looked at the scattered stars in the night sky
and then at the two kids
They were also looking up at the stars like him, and Noah couldn’t help but smile after a long time.
The world wasnt that bad, huh?
At least there were two little deals who were throwing their all into celebrating his birthday.
“Do you guys wanna go to the orphanage?” Noah asked
The boy reacted first, his childlike innocence disappeared and he became cautious, “If we go, I’ll be separated from
my sister, so no
Noah nodded
and looked up at the stars again, “How about. I adopt you guys?”
The boy was stunned, “Adopt?”
“Would you like that?” Noah looked at the boy
“Why? You’re famous, they say you’re a tycoon. You can have many kids of your own, you don’t lack kids. The boy’s
voice sped up inexplicably
He never thought that someone would want to adopt him and his sister
Although they tried their best to look clean, people would still think they were dirty and sometimes they would be

Would anyone want kids like them?
Noah looked at the starry sky, his eyes sore. “I probably won’t have kids of my own anymore”
“Are you sick?” The boy asked anxiously.
“No.” Noah replied lightly
“Then why can’t you have your own kids?” The boy asked further.
Noah looked at the twinkling stars.
“Because I only want to bring new life into the world with the person I love. But the person I love doesn’t love me
The boy didn’t understand the love and lack thereof in adults
He hesitated touching the scar on his finger,
“Do you really want to adopt us?
As his sister grew and they got beaten again and again.
the boy gradually realized that they couldn’t go on like this it was too dangerous
Even if they survived it would be difficult for him to protect his sister in such a place full of bad people
“Or you can adopt just my sister” he hurriedly added worried that Noah might change his mind.
