The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Of course Rita believed it. While she could not help Camille much in other aspects, she could visit the welfare home whenever she had some spare time.

Consequently, most of the children were very familiar with Rita. They knew she was a good friend of Camille, and since Camille was as close as a family to them, they saw Rita as their friend too.

"You're here." Virgil, who had been waiting at the door, greeted Rita as soon as she stepped out of her car. "We have everything we need here, so you don't need to bring so many things every time. It must be difficult for you to carry them all by yourself."

Virgil naturally took over the things Rita was carrying. Her car was filled to the brim with things for the welfare home.

"Whether you need it here is one thing, but whether I brought gifts for the children is another. I just want to see the children happy. I promised them I'd bring what they wanted, so how could I go back on my word?" Rita explained.

Virgil scratched his nose. "Yes, you're right."

Besides visiting the children, Rita had an important matter to discuss with Virgil-the developer who tricked him off the land.

While she knew Esmond was the mastermind behind the scenes, she was unsure of his current influence and activities. Thus, she had no choice but to jog Virgil's memory for the details.

With so many residents, how did he manage to convince each household? Rita was certain it was not just Virgil's family who disagreed with the initial proposal.

"Kids, look who's here!" Virgil approached with the gifts and was immediately surrounded by the children. "Miss Rita brought you all of these goodies."C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Several little girls rushed into Rita's arms. She bent down and scooped one of them up.

"Oh, let me hug you to see just how much you've grown," said Rita.

"Miss Rita, you haven't come in so long. I've grown taller and bigger," said the child.

"Sorry, I've been so busy lately. Otherwise, I'd definitely come to see you all more often," replied Rita.

"You seem to get along well with these kids," Rita commented after taking a sip of water.

Virgil gulped down some water.

"Yeah. Taking care of these children not only requires patience but stamina too. Thanks, again, for. getting me this job. I feel like I'm being healed just by hanging out with these children."

Rita hesitated for a moment before asking, "Have you ever thought about going back to find your wife and children?"
