Chapter 1388
But the indignation in his heart was fleeting.
due to the fact that he knew that Stephen and Aunt Lena did it for his own good.
If it weren’t for them to protect him as deliberately here, he might have died ten years ago.
In order to protect him, Stephen did not hesitate to replace the entire Aurous Hill Welfare Institute with his subordinates. This is enough to show that he took a painstaking care to ensure the safety.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to support Aunt Lena, and declared gratefully: “Auntie, you don’t have to apologize to me, let alone ask me for your crimes. You and steward Stephen are my lifesavers. I should thank you. You risked your life to protect my safety.”
Aunt Lena waved her hands in a hurry: “Master you are too polite. These are all things we should do.”
Charlie sighed and remarked, “Auntie, I am a little confused now, so I have to call butler Stephen and sort out these clues. After I figure it out, I will come to you again.”
Aunt Lena mentioned hastily: “OK, Young Master!”
Charlie was uncertain, and mentioned in a panic: “I’ll leave now Aunt Lena.”
Aunt Lena hurriedly mentioned, “Master I will see you off!”
Charlie waved his hand: “No, I’ll go by myself.”
After that, Charlie gave a fist to Aunt Lena, bowed slightly, and turned and left the office.
Pushing the electric bike, Charlie walked out of the orphanage in despair.
At this time, in the office of the dean on the fourth floor of the orphanage, behind a curtain gap, a middle-aged man in his fifties turned back and looked at the gray-haired Old Master sitting at the desk, and remarked respectfully: “steward Stephen , Master is gone.”
It was the dean of Aurous Hill Welfare Institute.
And the gray-haired Old Master in the desk was Stephen, the housekeeper of the Wade family.
Hearing that Charlie was gone, Stephen nodded lightly and sighed: “I have a thousand fortunes, and I didn’t even know that the young master would invite Gu’s girl to speak for him. Upon hearing the news, I immediately rushed over from Eastcliff. , But it’s too late…”
The dean asked him: “steward Stephen, there is something unclear below.”
“Say it.”
The dean stated in confusion: “Lena doesn’t know this at all. Why do you want him to speak these lines of lies to the young master?”
After speaking, he mentioned again: “At the beginning I did propose to choose a suitable woman from reliable servants to take care of the young master, but you disagreed, I must hire someone from the society who knows nothing. Volunteer, I just recruited Lena. She is the only staff member in the entire orphanage, but why do you have to tell her to lie now? Would you like to tell her this, what is she? don’t know. No matter how much the young master questioned her, it would be impossible to get any information. She didn’t know anything, and naturally, the young master would not see any clues!”
Stephen remarked with emotion: “The reason why I didn’t agree to use Wade’s servants to take care of the young master was since I was afraid that he would see the flaws when he gets along with the young master day and night.”
“Think about it. This person has to take care of the young master for ten years. What if he accidentally misses his mouth at any time and calls out the young master? What if he takes a nap one day and says something that shouldn’t be mentioned in a dream What should I do? The young master was only eight years old. I definitely can’t let him know that everything around him was arranged!”
“due to the fact that of this, I wanted someone who doesn’t know him to take care of him personally. Only in this way could he live in it and live the life of an ordinary orphan; as of this, he has not eaten well and dressed well these years. It’s not good, it’s not used well, even though I’m terribly upset, I don’t dare to give him any more care; due to the fact that of this, he was excluded, isolated, and humiliated by other children in the orphanage, and I dare not let you intervene. ……”
Speaking of this, Stephen sighed: “If it weren’t for seeing him wanting to treat that Lena, I absolutely don’t know how to persuade the young master to accept the gift from the Old Master.”
“What about now?” The dean remarked nervously, “Young Master knows about Lena. He will contact you immediately and find a way to find out who annihilated his parents. He might even return to Eastcliff, if someone in the Wade family is unfavorable to him, can the young master resist it?”
Stephen stated indifferently: “The young master has a title in Aurous Hill, called the real dragon on earth. This was not created by the young master himself. It was spontaneously sent to him by figures from Aurous Hill who have a head and face. This proves that the young master is by no means a thing in the pool, not an ordinary person. If he wants to deal with it, he can deal with it!”
After that, he remarked in a deep voice, “Although the Old Master’s body is not highly good, he can still carry it for a few more years. I originally didn’t want the young master to return to Eastcliff so early, but I never dreamed that he will meet Gu’s girl…”
“Gu’s father and daughter have been gazing for him for so many years. Once they come across, they will inevitably tell him what happened. By later, the young master will naturally know that there is some manipulation behind all this, and the facts have proved that I guessed right. So, instead of this, why bother hiding from the young master? Moreover, in this orphanage, he has been the closest to Lena since he was a child. These words are spoken from her mouth, and the effect is much better than that from mine. Only this way In order to encourage the young master to return to Eastcliff and go to Wade’s house to stir it upside down!”
Speaking of this, Stephen was already in tears. He trembled and remarked: “Old and incompetent, he can’t repay the second son’s blood. Now, let the young master personally repay the second son and the second wife for this hatred! In that case, The Old Master is dead, and he can look down!”
