Chapter 82: You Don't Even Want to Call Me Daddy
"You may be seated!" Ellie led Caesar to a quiet room and sat down.
As she walked with Ellie, Caesar noticed the environment of the orphanage. The walls are covered with all kinds of paintings, and it is clear that these simple lines are probably the work of children. The ground floor is clean, even cleaner than in the hallway of Caesar's premium apartment. Although ground hygiene is not telling, it is much better for a child than a dirty environment. On the whole, the whole corridor gives Caesar a neat and bright feeling, which is much better than where Caesar lived back then.
When passing by some rooms, he carefully paid attention to the things in the room, such as tables, chairs and benches, etc., which were placed neatly and neatly, and those things were not very new, indicating that the children here often used those things, and they could also keep them in order under the children's ability to dismantle their homes, and the education of the children in this welfare home was very complete. From this point Caesar was sure that this welfare home belonged to the kind of welfare home with a very good conscience.
I don't know if it's because of social progress or Caesar's coincidence, anyway, this welfare home can't be said to be one heaven and one underground compared to Caesar's back then, and it can also be said that there is a world of difference. It is estimated that the life of some families is not as good as that of this welfare home.
"Miss Ellie, is there anything wrong?" Caesar's IQ is still very online when facing adults, especially in the face of Ellie, a very beautiful opposite sex. He noticed Ellie's deliberate attempt to break Blake away, and the kid gave him some candy and ran away. So the next topic that Ellie talked about was related to Blake.
Ellie sat in front of Caesar, and seemed a little embarrassed to speak, she put her hands on the table and rubbed them, "Mr. Caesar, I have a reluctant request that I hope you will answer. ”
Since you know it's reluctant, don't open your mouth! Caesar rolled his eyes inwardly. "You say it's what it is."
"I hope you can adopt Blake."
The words fell, and the room fell into a deathly silence.
After a long while, Caesar slowly raised his question, "I don't think there is a need to push the child out with the conditions of your adoption center, right?" "She has a lot of money at first glance, unlike Caesar's orphanage, which even treats the adoption of children as a transaction.
Ellie busily explained to Caesar, "No, no, no! You may be mistaken, but we're not trying to push Blake out. Yes, the child has congenital leukemia and may not live to be five years old. We hope to give him a home before he dies, we have checked your information and know that you are also a child from a welfare home, you will understand how important parents and family are to an orphan, right? ”
Ellie's access to Caesar's information is not how powerful their welfare home is, when Caesar was arrested, someone in the police station notified the welfare home that the child had been found, and then as a suspect, Caesar's information was shared with the victim as soon as possible, that is, the teachers of the welfare home, including Ellie. Ellie was undoubtedly happy when she saw Caesar's information, because this person's identity is too suitable to be a backbiter, no, a father's role! Look at how wonderful his resume is, he was born in an orphanage and became an inspirational talent, was admitted to university, studied for a doctorate, stayed in school to become a professor, and his professional level is well-known in the industry. One of the most important points in his resume is that Caesar would donate a sum of money every month to the welfare home where he came from.
Ellie is the person who cares most about Blake in the entire orphanage. Generally speaking, a good-looking and sensible child like Blake should be the first choice for those adopters, but often those people decide not to adopt the little guy after seeing Blake's case. Children who can adopt are generally loving, and investing in a child who is destined to live for a long time is not something that ordinary people can do.
Therefore, Ellie really can't miss such a good person as Caesar this time, because according to normal procedures, no family will accept Blake, and the latter's life will not wait long.
Looking at Ellie's shining eyes, Caesar rubbed her mouth, isn't this a proper moral kidnapping? He frowned, his hands tapping on the tabletop, and the wrinkles between his brows showed that the guy was in a deep struggle.
Just as he was looking around, a small flower by the window came into his sight, it was a gardenia. The flower language of gardenia is elegant and happy. The flower is well cared for, and it blooms beautifully even before winter. Many of the windows in this home had flower pots with lots of flowers, and Caesar was the one who was most impressed.
Once one of his favorite brothers gave him one of these flowers and told him about Caesar's flowers. The reason for sending flowers is simple, because Caesar often gives them something to eat, so that they can eat a sugar pot during the holidays. Children don't know what gratitude is, but the teachers taught them that they can give a flower to someone they like, and Caesar received a lot of gardenias, because the backyard of the welfare home he came from was full of gardenias, and the children who were taken care of by Caesar were very delicate about him, so he received a lot of them.
Does the parents matter to a child? Very important! It's not a question of whether to feed or not, whether there is an economic source or not, even if the family is so rich that the country can replace the family to raise the next generation, it will not be replaced. The kind of love that someone is willing to give unselfishly to himself, without asking for anything in return, is something that a fatherless and motherless guy like Caesar has not felt. He reasoned that this feeling was in Li Jiaming's memory recently, and to be honest, he was too jealous of Li Jiaming, a bastard who didn't know how to be blessed in the midst of happiness. He obviously has such a good pair of parents!
Caesar didn't have the opportunity to experience fatherly love and mother's love, but now he had an opportunity in front of him, and that was to give fatherly love to others. What would Caesar choose?
Caesar retracted his gaze to look at the flower, so this is moral kidnapping, you ask an orphan this kind of question? How can you refuse?
Caesar stood up, smoothing his somewhat tattered suit with his hand, and he held out a hand, and Ellie stood up happily and took Caesar's outstretched hand.
"You should be ready to go back to the adoption process, right?"
"Of course!"
"Can you lend me your phone?"
"Huh?"
Half an hour later, Caesar took Blake's hand and stood at the door of the orphanage. The little guy is now crying like a tearful man. Even though Caesar repeatedly told him that he could bring him back whenever he wanted, the little guy still felt that once he was adopted, he would never come back, and he would never see his loving sister Ellie again.
"That's really not going to work, can I bring your sister Ellie home too?"
"Huh?" Blake's kid stopped crying, and looked at Caesar with a confused expression, his little head couldn't turn for a while.
A black SUV pulled up in front of the two, the windows in the driver's seat were rolled down, and a bare big man with sunglasses stuck out his head.
"Good morning, Advisor Caesar!"
Caesar: "Have you taken everything I want?" With that, he sat in and evacuated with little Black in his arms.
The cool-tasting S.H.I.E.L.D. agent pointed to the seat next to Caesar, "It's all in the bag next to it!" ”
Caesar put Blake in the saddle, got out of the car and carried the bag containing Blake's luggage into the car, and then sat down next to Blake, "Go to 36 Sixth Avenue in Manhattan." ”
“ok!” The agent answered, starting the car.
Caesar picked up the bag on the seat, took out the suit he had prepared inside, put it on his body, and took out a mobile phone from it and put it in his pocket.
Little Black grabbed you and Caesar by the arms and asked in a whisper, "Where are we going?" ”
"Go home." Caesar replied.
"Are you my dad from today onwards?"
"Strictly speaking, no, you can call me Uncle Caesar, or brother, and when you want to call me dad, then I will be your dad."
"Good! Uncle Caesar, do I have a mother? ”
"Yes! Your mother's name is Elizabeth. Oh! By the way, remember to call your mother when you see her, we can be casual between the two of us, but your mother has a bad temper. ”
Blake shrunk his head, "Can you hold me?" Like before? ”
"Of course! I can hold you whenever you want! ”
"Hmm!"
Caesar put his arm around Blake and let him sit in his arms. Raising his head, Caesar's face did not look melancholy before, but a tangled face. Now Caesar is no longer thinking about the meaning of his existence, but thinking about how to explain to Elizabeth that she has an extra son, and convince him that this son is not Caesar's illegitimate son, but adopted by him.
For the Caesar couple, the sudden addition of a child is not a little bit of a change in their lives. For Caesar, Blake's arrival meant that he was talking about changing the last thing he had left behind, which was to be a one-night lover. And for Elizabeth, it is even more serious, she is a yellow flower girl in her thirties, a little vampire who has just entered her youth, and she has so many sons, you must know that she and Caesar have not been for a few days! I can't stand it anymore!
So the question is, if Elizabeth has a conflict with Blake, then what should Caesar do between the two, thinking that Caesar touched Blake's head in his arms, and sighed silently, he must be towards this child. Because Elizabeth was an adult, she had her European family besides Caesar, but in this home Blake had no one but herself.
"It's trouble!" Caesar muttered.
