After Mike felt Gwen let go of him, he put her on the sofa and said, "I'll make you something to eat."
Mike stood up, but his clothes were held by Gwen.
"Don't worry, I'm here and I won't leave."
Mike touched Gwen's head, and after the other party let go of him, he walked into the kitchen.
Gwen sat motionless on the sofa, her eyes following Mike's back as he was busy in the kitchen.
As long as she couldn't see Mike, she would be a little scared and a little anxious, but as long as Mike appeared, she would quickly calm down.
Soon, Mike came out with a bowl of noodles.
Green scallions are sprinkled on the noodles, and paired with a fried egg, it looks very tempting.
"Try it."
Mike was afraid that Gwen wouldn't know how to use chopsticks, so he picked up a fork and handed it over.
Gwen took the fork and looked at the face in front of her. Tears suddenly fell out. She looked up at Mike and said her first words after meeting Mike: "I don't have a father anymore. I don't have a father anymore."
Mike felt sour in his heart. He bent down and hugged Gwen. Feeling the other person's sadness, he gently touched the other person's head and said, "Don't cry. Your father will definitely feel distressed when he sees you like this."
"Woo!"
Gwen closed her mouth and tried her best to endure it, but she still couldn't help sobbing quietly.
Mike let go of Gwen, wiped Gwen's tears, looked at the other person's eyes that were swollen from crying, and said: "Gwen, you have to be strong. Your dad is watching you in heaven. He must also like your smile. ,Is it right?"
Gwen sobbed and nodded, trying to force a smile.
This effort to pretend to be strong...
Mike felt even more distressed after seeing it.
But he could only smile back at the other person and said: "Eat and see, it's delicious."
Gwen nodded, and while wiping her tears, she picked up the face and put it in her mouth.
It was delicious, but she only ate a little and then put down her utensils.
Seeing this, Mike touched Gwen's head, looked at her uneasy eyes, pushed the bowl aside, and said: "Let's go, uncle will take you to wash your face."
While Gwen was eating, Mike had already prepared toiletries for her. He even used teleportation to buy two sets of pajamas for the other party while he was going to the bathroom.
Gwen slid off the sofa and whispered, "I can do it myself."
Mike was stunned for a moment and said: "That's awesome!"
Gwen walked into the bathroom, but didn't close the door, and even turned to look at Mike from time to time.
After Mike noticed this, he simply stood at the door.
Seeing this scene, Gwen finally felt relieved.
She was scared, really scared.
When her world was occupied by blood and the criminal's ferocious face, it was Mike who appeared and pulled that ferocious face out of her world, appeared in front of her eyes, and brought her warmth.
It felt like a ray of sunlight suddenly emerged from the endless abyss, fell on her when she was about to be swallowed, and rescued her.
Warmth, peace of mind, reliability…
That's how Mike made her feel.
Soon, Gwen finished washing and walked out.
Mike reached out and took the other person's cold little hand, led him to a bedroom, handed Gwen her pajamas, and said, "Can you sleep here?"
Gwen nodded, took her pajamas and went to bed obediently.
Mike left a light for the other party, closed the door and started washing.
This little girl is really heartbreaking.
After returning to the room, Mike had just turned off the lights and lay down on his bed when he heard a knock on the door.
Then, there was a timid inquiry: "Uncle, can I sleep with you? I, I'm afraid."
Mike got out of bed, turned on the light, and opened the door.
Gwen, who was wearing pajamas with a bear pattern on it, was holding her own pillow, standing at Mike's door, looking at Mike timidly, and kneading her fingers together.
Not hearing Mike's response, Gwen lowered her head and whispered: "I won't disturb uncle's sleep, and I won't kick the quilt."
"good!"
Mike responded.
Gwen looked up in surprise and saw only a pair of gentle eyes.
Gwen walked into the room, climbed onto the bed obediently, then put the pillows away, pulled up the quilt, and hurriedly closed her eyes.
Mike smiled and shook his head, lying on his back.
It must have been really reassuring, as Gwen fell asleep soon after.
After seeing the other person sleeping peacefully, Mike also fell asleep in a daze.
The next day, Oliver knocked on Mike's door and took Gwen and Mike to the police station.
Originally, he was just here to pick up Gwen, but he didn't expect that Gwen would not let go of Mike and had no choice but to take Mike back to the police station.
The number of visits to the police station these two days has exceeded the quota.
Mike chuckled to himself.
Sheriff George Stacey only has one daughter, Gwen, and no other relatives. The relics can only be given to Gwen. But Gwen was still young and did not dare to look at those things. Even when she first came to the police station, her eyes were filled with tears. burst into tears.
But when Oliver brought her father's relics, she held back her tears and expressed her gratitude to him.
Seeing this scene, everyone was extremely sad.
The police department was responsible for George Stacey's funeral, and all of his estate undoubtedly belonged to Gwen.
As for where Gwen will go next, Gwen has two choices.
One is to be sent to an orphanage, and the other is to be adopted.
In this regard, Oliver and several police officers expressed their willingness to adopt Gwen, but when these people asked about Gwen's wishes, they kept their heads down and did not respond.
It is indeed a bit overwhelming for a little girl who has just lost her father to make such a difficult decision.
The policemen sighed.
Mike stood up, and Gwen looked at Mike nervously and said, "Don't leave!"
Everyone looked at this scene in surprise. Gwen's attachment to Mike was beyond their imagination. Did the two really only know each other for a day
But thinking about what happened yesterday and remembering that Mike saved Gwen, they could understand Gwen's thoughts.
Looking at this scene, Oliver had an idea and said to Mike: "Do you want to adopt Gwen?"
"Me?" Mike was stunned for a moment, looking at Gwen's little face, his heart became extremely soft.
daughter
Not a bad look either.
So, he walked up to Gwen, knelt down, and said, "Gwen, do you want to come with me?"
Gwen thought for a moment and nodded.
Seeing this, police officer Oliver was afraid that Gwen might not understand, so he whispered: "Gwen, what you mean by leaving with Mike is that you will live with Mike in the future, and he will become your adoptive father, which is what you mean by your new father. You understand. ?"
Gwen looked at Mike, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded vigorously.
Seeing this scene, Mike showed a smile and hugged Gwen hard, and the other police officers also showed a smile after seeing this scene.
Oliver sighed, pretending to be fierce and said to Mike: "You must treat Gwen well. It's best not to have any inappropriate ideas!"
An idea you shouldn’t have
Referring to Gwen’s inheritance
Mike smiled and said nonchalantly: "I don't care about that thing."
