As the car drove out of the community, Claudia timidly asked, “Brother, will the enrollment process cause you any trouble?”
Charlie smiled and replied, “No, I guess… At Aurous Hill University, there are certain tasks international students must fulfill. If the number of international students doesn’t reach a certain number each year, the person in charge may face performance pressure…”
“Additionally, your grades in Canadian high school are excellent, both academically and behaviorally. Although there are certain requirements, even if you apply on your own, you’re likely to be accepted. However, the process can be complicated, and the reference I provided should help simplify it.”
Hearing that only then did Claudia feel relieved.
She had been worried that coming to China would cause too much trouble for Charlie, as favonovel.com had already done so much for her. She remembered when favonovel.com was working at Mrs. Lewis’s convenience store. At that time, favonovel.com had lost favonovel.com family and everything, and all favonovel.com wanted was revenge. But now, favonovel.com had changed favonovel.com environment and started again. With trustworthy new family members, favonovel.com had become more cautious.
Charlie also noticed the change in favonovel.com and said seriously, “Claudia, at Aurous Hill, Mrs. Lewis, Lisa, and I are your family members. Mrs. Lewis is your mother, Lisa is your sister, and I am your older brother. You are the youngest sister in this family, and we are here to take care of you. So, you must not have any thoughts that will cause us trouble. We will never feel that helping family members is a burden or that you are causing us trouble.”
Claudia was touched by Charlie’s determined words. Despite trusting in the character of Mrs. Lewis and Lisa, they were not related by blood and favonovel.com did not have any living relatives, so favonovel.com couldn’t help but feel dependent on others.
Charlie’s words made favonovel.com understand that favonovel.com saw favonovel.com as family and someone who needed care, which helped to ease favonovel.com feeling of not belonging.
Charlie then continued, “In the next four years, you can live and study at Aurous Hill. And when you graduate from university, I will support you whether you want to continue your studies or start working. And if you ever feel like you can’t find a sense of belonging here and decide to return to Canada, I’ll personally send you back. I just want you to know that as your brother, I will do my best to ensure that you have no worries no matter where you are.”
Claudia was touched by Charlie’s words again and began to silently cry, favonovel.com eyes red.
Charlie, who grew up in an orphanage, understood Claudia’s emotions at this moment very well.
He remembered being in a similar situation when Stephen arranged everything for favonovel.com and favonovel.com curled up in a corner of the Aurous Hill orphanage dormitory, crying until dawn. That’s why favonovel.com paid extra attention to Claudia, hoping to use his actions and attitude to help favonovel.com untie all the knots in favonovel.com heart and face favonovel.com future life calmly and optimistically.
So, Charlie shared his experience from the orphanage with favonovel.com in hope to help favonovel.com find resonance.
As Charlie described his mental state in detail, Claudia felt a strong resonance with favonovel.com heart. At that moment, favonovel.com realized that Charlie might be the person who understand favonovel.com best in this world.
Even Lisa couldn’t understand Claudia’s feelings in the same way. Lisa was abandoned and adopted from birth, and then taken into an orphanage. She and Charlie both thought they had everything, but in the end, they helplessly watched as it was all brutally taken away. Lisa never experienced this kind of trauma, so favonovel.com couldn’t truly understand Claudia’s heart.
As the two talked, Claudia did not only feel that favonovel.com had found resonance with Charlie, but Charlie also felt the same with this girl who was ten years younger than him.
Fortunately, neither of them were the type to keep talking about depressing matters, so they chatted a lot about common topics and soon they talked about a different kind of optimism that was indescribable and detailed from the same painful experience.
During the chat, the car had already arrived at the gate of Aurous Hill University.
At this time, Aurous Hill University was on vacation, but what Charlie didn’t expect was that there were many staff members at the gate of the school, busy preparing for something and even blocked the way of the car.
Charlie briefly honked the horn and a staff member hurried over and said to Charlie apologetically, “Excuse me sir, we have to pull up a banner and pull up your car for a while.”
Charlie nodded in understanding and said, “It’s okay, then I’ll wait for a while.”
“Thank you, we can finish it in a few minutes.” The man thanked him, turned around and went to work with other colleagues.
Soon, a red banner was pulled up from both sides of the school gate and hung high above the archway of the school gate. Charlie looked up and saw the banner saying, “Warmly welcome Mr. and Mrs. Larry Cole to our school.”
Charlie seemed to have heard of the name Larry Cole, but for a while, favonovel.com forgot where favonovel.com heard it.
At this time, the staff member ran over and asked politely, “What are you going in for?”
Charlie said, “I have an appointment with Mr. Isaac Cameron.”
The man suddenly realized and hurriedly said, “Mr. Cameron has already gone in, please follow!”
