Avery's heart was moved for a moment, but before she could respond, her bodyguard interfered. "Rose, Aunt Avery doesn't run an orphanage. She only took you here because you are ill and need special care. You can't force her to take care of your best friend as well." Avery glared at the bodyguard and said, "Don't run your mouth. If the church has trouble caring for the kids, of course, I can take care of them." Rose flushed and muttered shyly, "Uncle, I just want Irene to find someone nice as well. I am not asking Aunt Avery to adopt Irene. I know raising a child isn't easy." Rose's mature tone left the bodyguard slightly embarrassed. "Rose, I was just reminding you that we aren't an orphanage, I do not blyou for anything. Don't take it personally!" he explained gingerly and awkwardly.
"You are definitely going to like Irene if you see her, Uncle," Rose said. "She is smart and cute. She is the cutest kid I've ever seen." "Is she as cute as you?" the bodyguard asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRose was one of the most adorable children he had seen and though she was ill, she was cheerful and mature. It was likely a result of her condition or the fact that she had been abandoned by her parents.
The children who grew up in the church were bound to be more mature than normal children.
Without hesitation, Rose nodded. "We are both cute." "Hahaha! Is this coming from you or from the sisters in the church?" "Everyone says so," Rose said confidently. "I will introduce you to her tomorrow, and you will know that I'm not lying to you." "Sure. If she's as cute as you say she is, I will go get her a gift and give it to her tomorrow," said the bodyguard, playing along.
Rose and the bodyguard chatted away, and Avery found it difficult to join the conversation.
She felt glad that everyone seemed to love Rose. All the staff in the hospital who performed the tests on Rose had nothing but compliments for her, and Rose had not stopped smiling ever since she got there. Avery could sense that Rose was truly happy.
"Rose, tomorrow is Saturday, so Layla and Robert will go visit the church with you to see your friends, okay?" Avery remembered that it was the weekend the next day and decided that she wanted to take her children with her to the church.

Avery hesitated and said, "Aunt Shea has been severely ill before so she's not that strong and hiking might be too harsh on her body. Would it be okay to have Uncle Wesley calong instead?" "Sure! I just want to introduce Aunt Shea to Irene, then Aunt Shea will let Irene cover for a visit," Rose confessed.
"Hahaha, don't worry! Even if Aunt Shea doesn't get to meet Irene tomorrow, you are free to invite any of your friends over to Aunt Shea's place or to mine. We will welcany friends of yours." "Thank you, Aunt Avery. You are such a nice person." "Rose, I am getting a little embarrassed from all the thank yous. You don't have to be so polite with me, okay?" Avery patted her on the head.
"Sister said that children need to know manners or no one would like us." "We do have to learn manners, Rose, but we don't need to do so just to get someone to like us," Avery said.
"Are the sisters wrong, then?" Rose was slightly confused.
"Well, they aren't wrong because they want you kids to be liked, but there is more to living than to win others affection, right? You can be a doctor, a scientist, or an artist if you want to in the future." S Rose imagined the future longingly when she heard what Avery had to say.
