Chapter 1634 Visiting the Orphanage
Nigel figured that he had to let the Silversteins reconnect with Jessie for a while before turning their attention to his
and Queenie’s wedding.
At Silverstein Residence.
Brandon and Maggie decided to visit the orphanage Jessie had grown up in tomorrow and convey their deepest
gratitude.
That night, as the two sisters lay in bed together, Jessie asked curiously about Queenie and Nigel’s relationship. As
she listened to the stories, Julian’s face popped into her mind all of a sudden, and she nearly jumped out of bed in
shock.
What am I thinking? Why do I feel hopeful about dating Julian? Have I gone mad? What on earth gave me the
courage to even dream of that?
“Jessie? What’s on your mind?” Queenie saw the way Jessie’s eyes were seemingly wide with shock.

Queenie’s eyes sparkled with joy. That’s right! Jessie’s back now, and once the whole family has gotten the chance
to spend more time together, it’ll be time to start planning for my wedding.
A thought flashed across her mind and she propped her head up to ask, “Jessie, do you like Julian?”
Jessie immediately waved that off. “How could I? I wouldn’t dare to.”
“Jessie, if you like him, then just try and go after him. You won’t know unless you try. Maybe you might even
succeed!” Queenie encouraged her sister to be bold in love.
Jessie blinked. “Queenie, right now, I think it’s just mostly admiration on my part. I’ve heard so much about him all
this while. I think he’s incredible and very mysterious. He’s also very prominent, so even if he likes someone who
hasn’t proven themselves yet, it still won’t work out.”
Queenie never thought that Jessie would be so clear-headed despite her young age, but she was right. There was a
huge gap between them, and things would be hard for them if they were in a relationship.
“What’s your plan for the future, Jessie?”
“I plan on focusing on my career first before thinking about love. Plus, I’m satisfied that I have my family to support
me and accompany me now.” Jessie wanted to focus on earning money so that she could help the orphanage
more, and she also wanted to fulfill her dream of becoming an actress.
The next morning.
The Silversteins left for the orphanage with a car full of gifts.
The director of the orphanage, Flora Yancy, was a woman in her fifties, but due to her laborious job, she had
graying hair and looked a decade older than Maggie despite being of similar ages.
When Flora heard that Jessie had found her family, she was genuinely happy for Jessie. Flora herself spent a lot of
time trying to help the children at the orphanage reunite with their families, but it was hard for her to do it alone
and she wasn’t well-connected either. Thus, a lot of children never managed to find their families.
“Jessie, since you’ve found your family, you should go home and spend more time with them. You can still drop by
when you have time,” Flora advised.
Jessie’s eyes were teary as she nodded. “I will, Madam Yancy. I will come and visit all of you often. This is my second
home and you’re my family too.”
“You’ve always been a wonderful child and so mature even when you were little. I never had to worry about you,

for everything you’ve done,” Flora said as she held Jessie’s hands.
“It’s only right for me to give back to the orphanage,” Jessie replied as she wiped her tears away.
“Madam Flora, we want to donate 300,000 in funding to the orphanage every year, and you can also let us know
whatever it is that you need help with. We will definitely do our best to help,” Maggie promised.
“I can’t thank you enough. You’re all wonderful people. It’s no wonder that Jessie turned out to be such a kind and
lovely girl. She must’ve inherited it from her family!” Flora exclaimed with a smile. The funding the Silversteins were
giving was enough to ensure that she could take good care of every child.
“Madam Yancy, we prepared a dinner party tonight to welcome Jessie back to the family and we would like to invite
everyone in the orphanage to join us,” Maggie said.
Flora smiled. “You’re very kind, but there are too many children here and we can’t leave them. Please go ahead
and enjoy yourselves.”
