Chapter 78: The Cruel World (Part Two)

Zoe was quickly cleaned by Fishy Wells, dressed in Finn Lewis’s T-shirt that fit her like a dress, reaching her ankles due to her small stature. A large T-shirt worn as a nightdress, after washing, quickly bonded Zoe and Fishy.

When they came out, Finn had finished his phone call, “I’ll take Zoe home tomorrow. I’ve already arranged everything. Don’t worry, when will Julia

Parker and the others be here?”

“They’ve already bought clothes and are on their way back.” Fishy replied.

“Okay, then you should stay here tonight. It won’t be convenient if I must take care of her on my own, you can sleep with her.” Finn suggested pointing at Zoe.

“I can sleep in a room by myself. I am not afraid.” Zoe immediately said.

“No problem, it’s not safe for Fishy to go back alone this late at night. How about sleeping with Fishy? The bed at my place is large, it can sleep lots of people.” Finn said with a smile.

“Okay! I’ll sleep with Fishy. It’s not safe at night. I once bought medicine for my grandma at night. It was scary outside, but Zoe still safely managed to return with the medicine.” As soon as Zoe heard that it was unsafe for Fishy to go home at night, she immediately agreed and proudly continued.

After cleaning up, Zoe was a very pretty little girl, a potential beauty in the making, with big bright eyes. Although she hadn’t begun school yet, the respectable old person clearly left a good worldview in her little mind.

Hearing Zoe’s sensible words and thinking about her situation, Fishy’s eyes became red again. It was only after Finn gave her a few meaningful glances that she managed to hold back her tears and wiped them away secretly.

Julia Parker and the others came over quickly. Of course, Fishy had already explained Zoe’s origins to them. So these girls tried their best to make Zoe laugh and they even bought her new clothes. Consequently, Zoe was in high spirits and laughed all night until she finally fell asleep.

Watching the little girl sleeping quietly inside the blanket, Fishy felt a touch of sadness, “What should we do tomorrow? Such a young child, this is too brutal!”

The other girls also looked sad. Finn shared what he had discussed with the middle-aged policeman. The girls nodded their heads agreeing that they had to accept this temporary arrangement. In the future, when she grows up and understands these things, it wouldn’t be so heartbreaking. It would be too cruel to let her know the truth now.

The next day, Finn and his friends got up early. Zoe put on the new clothes. Although they were bought from a 24-hour supermarket by Julia Parker and the others, to Zoe, the clothes were already perfect. She was very happy along the way. When they passed the supermarket at the entrance of the apartment complex, she wanted to buy milk for her grandma.

Finn had to stop the car to let her buy the milk. Initially, Finn wanted to pay for it, but she didn’t let him. She carefully took out all the ten-plus Yuan she had from her pocket. Seeing the dirty money, Fishy and the other girls who knew the origin of the money almost cried on the spot, Finn’s nose was also a bit sour, but he managed to hold back.

Only after she happily got on the car with the milk did they resume driving. Looking at Zoe sitting in the back row joking with Fishy, Finn felt a bit sad. He was unsure whether the method he and the policeman had discussed would work.

“Don’t worry, it will be fine. This is the best method.” Julia Parker, who was driving, noticed Finn’s expression and comforted him.

“Hmm.” Finn nodded.

Many neighbours had also gathered, and they all knew that Zoe had been found.

As soon as she got out of the car, Zoe quickly noticed the neighbours. Holding Finn’s hand, she walked towards her home. All along the way, she was greeted by familiar faces, each of them grimacing a forced smile.

“Grandma, I’m back! I also bought milk for you!” Upon reaching her own home, Zoe ran happily towards her house, a box of milk held tightly in her small hand.

The door was pushed open, and the room was empty. Zoe paused for a moment, then quickly turned around and asked, “Where is grandma? Uncles and aunts, have you seen my grandma?”

“Zoe, come, let this policeman tell you.” Finn waved at Zoe and then said.

Slightly puzzled, Zoe looked at the middle-aged policeman and then ran to Finn’s side. Once Zoe was close, the middle-aged policeman squatted down and asked with a smile: “Little girl, are you Zoe?”

“Yes, I am Zoe.” Zoe nodded.

“Well, the policeman is here to represent your grandma and tell you something. You know that your grandma is ill, right?” The middle-aged policeman said in a soft voice.

“Hmm.” Zoe nodded.

‘Well the thing is, because your grandma was sick, the policeman had to take her to a faraway place for treatment. You were not at home, so your grandma asked the policeman to find you. You will be with this big brother, and he will take care of you. Once your grandma gets better, she will come to find you, okay?” The middle-aged policeman spoke in a comforting tone.

“You’re lying to me!” Unexpectedly, Zoe jumped out of Finn’s arms and yelled, her big eyes quickly filling with tears, “Grandma would never have left me behind! You’re lying, I don’t want to hear it, grandma must have gone out to pick up things!” After saying that, Zoe directly pushed through the crowd and ran out.

“Zoe!” Finn shouted, and hurriedly followed. Fishy and the others also hurriedly chased after. Although Zoe was small, she was fast. She quickly rushed out of the main door, then ran along the roadside whilst crying out for her grandma. She must have been following the route they normally took to pick up garbage.

“Mr. Lewis!” The middle-aged policeman also chased, simultaneously speaking to Finn.

“What?” Finn turned his head and looked at him.

“Mr. Lewis, just follow her. At this point, it is absolutely forbidding to stop her. When she can’t find her grandma after going to the usual places, she’ll believe what we just told her. If you stop her at this point, she won’t believe it.” The middle-aged policeman ran by Finn’s side and whispered.

“I see. Thank you. I will follow her. Could you please ask the others not to follow?” Finn thought about it for a while, thinking the policeman made sense. He nodded and said his thanks to him. The middle-aged policeman said ‘you’re welcome’, then stopped and waved to the people following them to halt..
