Goodbye, My Love

Loraine was momentarily caught off guard. The children at the orphanage were all quite young, and the majority of them had not

been there when she left. How did they recognize her?

Had Eloise been telling stories about her?

Or, did they know of her due to the donations made by the Torres family?

Handing the child a piece of candy, with the wrapper carefully opened,

Loraine asked him with a smile, “What’s your name? And why do you call me Angel Sister?” Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

The boy, in his innocent way, could not take his eyes off the candy he now held in his hand. After giving it a tentative Lick, his

face lit up in delight. “I’m Giovanni,” he answered, “Because Devil Sister doesn’t like you, you must be Angel Sister!”

Devil Sister?

Loraine was stumped. But from the straightforward honesty of the child’s words, she inferred that this Devil Sister was likely not a friendly figure. Perhaps she had something to do with the earlier disturbance.

Although Eloise didn’t want her to worry, it didn’t mean Loraine was going to turn a blind eye.

With this in mind, she pulled out more candies from her bag. Seeing the children’s eyes gleam in anticipation, she put on a playful smile.

“If you want some candy, you’ll have to answer a few questions for me, alright?”

Sister

Swiftly, a cluster of small children surrounded Loraine, their eyes sparkling with anticipation at the candies in her hand. Their tears had ceased, replaced by an eagerness for her questions.

Loraine cleared her throat and presented a candy, smiling as she inquired, “Who visited the orphanage today? Did they upset you?”

Angela’s Library

Giovanni was the first to shoot his hand up, voicing his indignation,

“Yes, it was the Devil Sister! The Devil Sister is really mean as she constantly sends people to pick on us!”

Loraine hesitated at his response. He had answered, but not clarified who the Devil Sister was. She needed to know who was tormenting them.

Regardless, Loraine didn’t wish to retract her promise, so she handed the candy to Giovanni.

Giovanni grinned ecstatically, revealing a set of jagged teeth. He was evidently a sugar fiend, and Loraine suddenly felt a pang of

guilt. If

Eloise found out that she had been feeding candies to this Little candy lover, there might be trouble.

However, Giovanni wasn’t merely a candy lover. He was also magnanimous.

He took the remaining candies and generously shared them with the other kids, one by one.

In the corner sat a quiet and reserved boy who didn’t engage in the other children’s activities or ask for candy. However, Loraine

noticed that he was one of the children who had returned with Giovanni. His eyes were slightly reddened, but he held back his

tears with stubborn determination.
