Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 734

Chapter 734 The Girl Seems Like a Little Angel

Although Jimmy was happy inside, he didn't show it on his face. He withdrew his hand seriously, but the slight raise of his eyebrows still let Martha and Stefan know what he was thinking.

Bianca and Maxwell standing at the door looked at the little girl with obvious confusion in their eyes.

They exchanged a glance and both saw doubt in each other's eyes. But obviously, now is not the time to ask about this.

Martha saw that both kids were looking at each other, smiled and said, "Jimmy, do you want to show Anna around our house?"

"Okay," Jimmy happily replied and after hesitating for a few seconds, he directly took Anna's hand. "Let's go. I'll take you around."

Anna turned her head and glanced at the beautiful couple standing next to her.

Martha nodded lightly with a gentle tone in her voice. "Go ahead."

"Okay," Anna happily answered as she followed Jimmy towards the Doyle Manor's garden.

After the two children walked away, Bianca couldn't restrain her curiosity anymore. She quickly approached Martha with quick steps.

"Whose child is that?"

"I picked her up on the way," Martha said with a light smile as mischievousness flickered through her eyes.

She knew that by saying this, Bianca would definitely be very worried, but it was just how things were.

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Bianca raised her voice an octave higher than before, "You picked her up on the way?"

"Yes," Martha responded calmly while reaching out to grab Bianca's arm before gently explaining, "When we were heading towards the airport, we passed by an intersection where that little girl stood crying out loud. I felt sorry for her, so Stefan and I brought her back."

Bianca and Maxwell were stunned by such words.

They never expected Martha and Stefan would take a young girl back after their trip in Ulmore.

After a while, Maxwell finally came back from his thoughts, saying worriedly, "By bringing this little girl back, if she can't find her parents, then..."

Maxwell didn't finish what he wanted say but Stefan walking beside him already knew what he meant anyway...

His eyes darkened, and he spoke softly, "We've been to the Ulmore Police Station and left our address there. If the parents find it, they'll come to pick her up."

"That's good. I was afraid if her parents wouldn't be able to find their child, they would be worried sick," Bianca quickly agreed with relief.

But if the child was lost, wouldn't the parents immediately report it to the police?

That meant that as soon as they brought back the child, she would be taken away again? That's what Bianca thought in her mind, as she asked curiously.

"If you bring back the child now and her parents find out about it later on, won't they report it immediately? Then won't they have to come over here to get their child?"

Martha sighed helplessly before answering quietly, "I'm afraid things aren't peaceful in that girl's family. I suspect that her parents can't take her back anytime soon."

Maxwell frowned slightly when he heard this and asked in confusion, "What did that girl tell you guys?"

"She said that while her daddy went with her mommy for a prenatal checkup, a nanny took her out."

"When they stopped at an intersection along the way," Martha continued speaking softly. "The nanny told Anna that if she crossed this road, then she could see her daddy and mommy."

"But after she turned around," Martha paused briefly before continuing slowly, "the nanny was nowhere to be found."

Bianca and Maxwell fell silent upon hearing all of this.

They were no longer children. Just hearing these few words made them guess what kind of person this nanny might have been.

They didn't know what kind of family Anna came from exactly, but just thinking about how a nanny could harm a two-year-old made them feel cold inside.

Martha continued speaking with sadness in her eyes for Anna, "If Anna's parents report it to the police, they could see our address, but maybe they will choose to let their daughter stay with us temporarily."

"So we decided to bring her back first," Martha concluded firmly.

Seeing Martha's rosy cheeks, she was much more relieved.

However, all of this was just a facade.

In fact, Martha's face was very pale due to lack of sleep.

In order not to worry them, she used makeup suitable for pregnant women to make her look less terrible.

Now seeing neither Maxwell nor Bianca noticed anything unusual made her feel relieved too.

In the garden, Jimmy led Anna into the garden before letting go of her hand gently and blowing his whistle.

Soon, the little golden retriever ran over, wobbling very cutely.

Anna's eyes lit up when she saw the puppy, and she pointed at it with a smile on her face. "What a cute doggie!"

Jimmy turned to her with a gentle smile and said, "His name is Nick, and he's a boy."

Nick ran up to Jimmy and obediently sat down in front of him. Jimmy stepped forward and gently petted Nick's head. "Nick is such a good dog," he said proudly.

Anna stepped forward curiously and asked timidly, "Can I pet him?"

"Of course you can," Jimmy replied with a smile before introducing Anna to Nick. "Nick, this is Anna. You mustn't bully her."

Nick obediently lay down without making any noise while Anna slowly approached him and began stroking its fur gently.

"Hi there Nick! My name is Anna, nice to meet you," she said sweetly.

Nick lay still while both children petted its fur lovingly.

Jimmy watched from behind as Anna played with Nick under the sunlight that filtered through the trees above them; it was like watching an angel playing with an animal in heaven - so beautiful it almost took his breath away.
