NovelEnglishChapter 1048
At 9:00 pm, their flight landed at the airport in Cloud City.
The Willis family did not know that they would be back that night, so they did not arrange for anyone to
pick
them up.
Ruth looked at Adeena with a complicated gaze. “Are you going to return to the Willis family or…”
“}
Adeena raised her arm and stopped a car. She helped Ruth put her suitcase in the trunk before she
nonchalantly said, “I’ll go back to my own place. Be safe.”
Ruth bent down and got into the car.
For the first time, she noticed Adeena taking good care of her.
Their relationship had not been close over the four years, but when Ruth thought about it, Adeena had
always accommodated her.
It was because the Willis family had abducted her using the excuse of life–saving grace.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn Adeena’s heart, the Willis family had saved her life.
In reality, the Willis family members were killers.
Ruth suddenly trembled.
If Daniel discovered everything, her relationship with him would be doomed.
No… The truth was, Daniel and her never really started anything.
She raised her head and looked out the window. Adeena‘s figure slowly disappeared from the street.
Adeena then entered a cab and went back to her place.
She was really tired after the last few days, so she fell asleep as soon as she lay in bed.
When she woke up the next day, it was sunny. She looked at the clouds in the sky outside the
windows. They were stacked together like grapes for some reason. Right then, she abruptly
remembered what she had been missing
Out of nowhere, Adeena had the urge to see the little girl whose eyes were as watery as grapes.
She had free time, anyway, so she got changed and drove to the orphanage. She knew that the
orphanage would not easily reveal the information about the child‘s foster parents. She had initially
planned to put some effort into hearing from the director. But when she reached the orphanage, the
director told her everything before she even asked.
“I remember you. Aren‘t you the kind person who sent Grapie back to the orphanage the other day?”
The director sighed. “Something happened to Grapie a month after she was adopted.” Adeena‘s heart
suddenly seized. “What happened?”
“Her foster parents took her to the theme park, and a car accident happened on the way. Her foster
parents were mildly injured, but Grapie...” The director‘s eyes turned red. “When the accident
happened , the girl hugged her foster mother‘s head. Her foster mother turned out fine, but a car
accessory pierced Grapie in the back. Her lung was punctured, and she experienced massive bleeding
. She‘s still in the ICU...”
Adeena‘s heart instantly sank.
She felt her hand shaking. “Which–Which hospital?”
“A few days ago, Grapie‘s foster mother came to me and asked me to help her find Grapie‘s biological
parents.” When Adeena heard what the director said, she immediately asked, “Don‘t they want to adopt
Grapie anymore?”
“That‘s not the case,” the director said. “Grapie‘s severely injured, and she bled a lot. Her blood type is

have. That‘s why I have to find her biological parents so that she can
be saved.”
Adeena pursed her lips.
Her blood type was extremely rare too. Perhaps…
She softly said, “Give me the hospital’s address. I’ll go and have a look.”
The director nodded and gave her the information.
Following that, Adeena drove toward the best hospital in Cloud City.
After she parked her car, she rushed toward the ICU. She walked with haste, not caring about her
image.
Just as she entered the corridor, she saw Adeline sitting on the chair outside. Her hands were on her
knees, and she had a blank stare.
Adeline did not turn around either when she heard the sound of footsteps. Her expression was of
someone at a loss.
Adeena only noticed that Adeline had dark circles and looked tired when she walked closer. Adeline
must not have been sleeping well for a few days.
