Chapter 1238
May was usually kind, but she was strict and meticulous about the children’s studies.
“You children started out with little.
“Without a background, you can’t compete using your parents like others.
“The only way out is to study hard and have a good job someday.
“Therefore, you cannot dismiss your studies.”
As May spoke, Caitlyn quickly took May’s arm, and her eyes went red.
To others, May was only an ordinary middle-aged woman..
She had no good looks, no good figure, nor a strong family background.
However, May was an angel and a second parent for people like Sean.
Sean and the rest would have starved to death on the streets without May.
Sean nodded gently and kept them company.
The afternoon sun shone as the three sat together and talked.
Zander was in the distance, training a dozen little boys.
The atmosphere was harmonious.
However, a few people soon ruined it.

Honk honk!
There was a hasty series of car horns.
Before Sean could look up, five or six young men and women marched into the orphanage.
Swoosh!
The children who Zander was training stood at attention and immediately hid in a room.
There was also some tension in May and Caitlyn’s eyes.
It was as if these people were demons.
Sean frowned slightly at the sight of that.
‘Is someone here to bully them again?’
If that were the case, Sean would go after them no matter who they were.
“Yo, you must be Sean Lennon.”
A young man walking at the front suddenly shouted to Sean.
The young man had a deep scar on his forehead between his eyebrows.
He looked frightening.
Seeing the scar and then the young man’s face, a name slowly came to Sean’s mind.
Albert Neeson!
He was one of the children from the orphanage.
Besides that, he was a bully. He bullied Sean and Caitlyn when they were kids.
“Brother Sean, he’s gotten worse now…”
Caitlyn whispered behind Sean.
Sean frowned even more when he heard this.
It seemed that not all the children in the orphanage were as kind as Caitlyn!
Sean did not know what awful things Albert had done yet.
“I heard you came back yesterday, and you came back empty-handed.
“If you ask me, you’re nothing much, Sean.
“When we were little, Aunt May said you’re kind and grateful, so you will achieve great things in the
future.
“And then what? The orphanage has raised you for ten years, yet you come back without even bringing
back a candy bar?”
Albert leered at Sean with a sneer
Several of Albert’s peers behind him also sneered.
Looking at the group, Sean recognized two familiar people who must have grown up in the orphanage

“It’s my business whether I brought anything.
“I don’t need you to say anything.”
Sean shot Albert a quick glance and replied indifferently.
“You don’t want to buy anything or can’t afford it?
“By the way, Aunt May, Sean must have been such a loser!
“Didn’t you say Sean was so good that he even joined the army?”
Albert’s words made her blush.
The orphanage was indeed short of supplies.
However, May would not ask Sean for anything.
“Haha! After all these years, it seems he’s still a penniless loser.”
Albert sneered and prepared to lead his group inside.
Honk honk!
Just then, two more car horns rang again outside.
The crowd looked back before slowly widening their eyes.
At some point, two cargo trucks stopped in front of the orphanage gate.
The doors opened, and the trucks were filled with daily necessities.
“Gosh, what kind person sent these?”
Albert rubbed his eyes first before exclaiming.
