Laura lowered her eyes in disappointment, looked at Zayn, and left without saying anything.
Zayn stopped breathing momentarily and saw her walking toward the orphanage with her short legs.
He suddenly slid down the stairs. “Wait!”
Laura paused, looked back at him, and was suddenly held in Zayn’s arms.
She was stunned and asked, “Zayn?”
This was the first time Zayn had hugged her.
Zayn shut his eyes. A lump formed in his throat, and he uttered with much difficulty, “Listen to me. The life of rich people is not as easy as you imagined. Although they’re adopting you, they may not really care about you. You have to take good care of yourself. If someone bullies you, you will fight back according to what I taught you. Learn what they want you to learn. You should learn the best skills such as piano, dance, French, and everything they want you to learn. You are different from your mother. You can live a better life than your mother because you are smart. When you grow up and become strong, there is no need to care about whether the people around you love us or not. We don’t have to rely on them, okay?”
Laura was befuddled but remembered everything he said.
But she suddenly felt sad again. She reached out and hugged him. “Will we meet again?”
She liked Zayn the most.
Zayn frowned, and there seemed to be a surge of mist in his eyes. He nodded dully. “Yes. I will try my best to work hard. Let’s meet at the top.”
Laura looked up at him and asked, “How far is the top?”
Zayn was stunned and quickly turned his head away. “Go find your brother.”
He didn’t answer.
Laura sniffled and finally hugged Zayn tightly in reluctance.
She didn’t say anything but held his thin body tightly.
Zayn’s lips were trembling and buried in her neck. Then, he pushed her away cruelly.
“Go!”
Tears streamed down her face. Laura didn’t say anything more and turned around to leave.

Chapter 17
Jasper stood in the corner and saw that scene.
Laura didn’t look back because she was crying.
Therefore, she didn’t see Zayn watching her cry silently.
He snorted coldly and thought, “Look at this. I’ve said this before. He’s the most dangerous man. that will stop Laura from progressing in life in the future. He’s such an unpleasant kid. Fortunately, he’s just an orphan. We’ll never see him again.”
After going through the procedures, Laura said goodbye to everyone in Grace’s arms.
At the farewell ceremony, Zayn still didn’t show up.
Holding her small package, Laura followed Jasper and looked back at the orphanage.
Grace waved at her with tears in her eyes and said, “Lala! Don’t come back!”
She looked at the four tall figures with tears in her eyes and was a little dazed, thinking, “Am I really not coming back?”
She was reluctant to leave. In the end, she still didn’t see Zayn seeing her off.
Zayn was huddled in the corner, blankly watching Laura get into the extremely beautiful Maybach MPV and disappear from his sight.
His whole heart felt empty, and he looked around,
Laura was no longer by his side.
The girl who timidly poked her head out from the crowd and loved to cry from the moment she saw him was no longer by his side.
Laura who would secretly poke his palm and smile at him was no longer by his side..
Driven to distraction, he turned around.
Suddenly, there was the sound of a car braking at the door of the orphanage.
-Zayn looked back in surprise, but it was not the MPV.
It was a Rolls–Royce.
Grace was stunned. She saw two bodyguards getting out of the luxury car and another old man in traditional clothes walking into the orphanage step by step with a crutch.
Zayn’s face changed slightly, and he clenched his fists vigilantly.
Grace stepped forward and asked, “Who are you looking for?”

The old man, Nathan Graham, glanced at Zayn and said, “I’m here to pick Zay grandson.”
