342 The Siblings’ Reunion
Benson Walton’s POV:
After that, he was sent to an orphanage.
It was not that he had never asked the caretaker to find his sister, but they looked at him coldly and said perfunctory words to blame or shirk. Children were actually very sensitive, and the boy gradually felt the caretaker’s impatience and disgust. After being maliciously picked on and punished several times, he learned to shut up.
Some kind local couples would occasionally come to adopt children, and the cute boy was very popular. However, every time he felt that his relationship with them strengthened and he revealed his intention to find his sister, those adults who were enthusiastic about him would remain silent and never visit him again.
He was very sad, but he never gave up until the wanderers suddenly attacked the orphanage.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe memory of being kidnapped was too vague for him. Most of the time, he and the other children were made into puppets by some special method, and they knew nothing about the outside world.
The boy’s experience made me fall silent. His world was too far away from me, be it the past or the present me.
Born noble, the Alpha heir set his eyes on the higher and further future, never caring about the insignificant weeds under his feet. The silent mobile patrol team members only needed to complete the tasks assigned by their superiors. These people would never appear to see how people lived like stray dogs.
I didn’t think I was stupid, but I couldn’t say anything about what happened to the boy.
Pity? Or comfort? Or should I encourage him to have a happy future?
I didn’t know. I couldn’t say it. When I thought of how I used to be as arrogant and cruel as those who bullied, ignored, and bullied him, I felt like a fishbone stuck in my throat.
Actually, the boy didn’t need me to say anything. He was still a child, and his tender tolerance had already reached its limit. He just needed someone to talk to. After saying all this, he quickly fell asleep, not concerned with my avoidance and silence.
A few days later, I brought the boy back to the pack with a team escorting the wounded. The boy was excited all the way back because he knew that someone would contact his sister after we reached the pack. Although he knew that I had Bertha’s contact information, and he was burning with anxiety, he was still sensible enough not to say anything.
I hadn’t been away from the Lycan pack for too long. The last time I left was only a few months ago. There was no change here. It was still bustling and lively, peaceful and calm, the crown princess’ coronation and wedding were still in the public’s mouth, and the news of an Alpha from another place resigning didn’t cause a ripple here.
With Angus’ expectant gaze, I contacted the Charlies Family, but they said Bertha had already left. If there was a need, they could help me contact her.
“Yes, thank you very much for doing this,” I said to the person on the other end of the phone, who seemed to be the butler. “I’m sorry I can’t disclose the specific process, but Bertha’s brother is now with me. He’s eager to reunite with his sister, so it’ll be best if we can arrange for them to reunite as soon as possible.”
The butler seemed to have a good relationship with Bertha. When he heard Angus was here with me, he immediately took this matter seriously. He cautiously asked about my identity – of course, I couldn’t tell him that everything about the mobile patrol team had to be kept secret – and then half-heartedly agreed to help us contact Bertha.
“This is a public phone. If you have any news, please come to the 6th floor, Room 23 on 17th Street to find me. Thank you again.”
I couldn’t reveal the real address of the mobile patrol team. The 6th floor, Room 23 on 17th Street, was a place for the family members to visit.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI received news from the Charlie Family’s butler in the afternoon. He said Bertha was very anxious and hoped to meet us as soon as possible.
“Anytime,” I said. “We’ll be waiting on 17th Street for a while.”
“How about eight o’clock tomorrow morning?” The butler said, “The nature of Bertha’s work is a little special. The security is strict, and if she wanted to take leave, she must apply a day in advance.”
After asking for Angus’ opinion, I nodded in agreement. “Sure, see you tomorrow at eight o’clock.”
I believed Angus’ sister was also working for the government and had to keep it a secret. Otherwise, why couldn’t she come out and contact me personally?
Since he was about to meet his family, the boy was so excited that he didn’t sleep the entire night. He tossed and turned on the bed like a pancake. His movements echoed in the narrow double room, so I couldn’t sleep either. However, seeing that he was excited, I ignored him and let him be.
The next day at 8 o’clocl, the boy’s sister arrived on time. When she saw the boy, she was so excited that she burst into tears. The boy was no better than her. The siblings hugged each other and cried. Seeing that my mission was completed, I stayed no longer and left after handing the boy over to Bertha.
Bertha stopped me. “Please don’t leave so quickly. The kindness you’ve shown Angus and me is extremely important to us. No matter what, let me treat you to a meal, and we’ll discuss how to repay you!” she said.
I shook my head coldly. “There is no need. This is my mission. Don’t think too much about it.”
After that, I left without looking up. No matter how the siblings called after me, I didn’t look back.
