You More Than Anything In The World novel Chapter 213

Chapter 213 Left Something Important Behind

“What a big helicopter!”

“It must be cool to sit on it!”

The children were envious.

“What a pity. We could’ve turned them in before they left.”

Meanwhile, some children felt disappointed.

The helicopter slowly left the ground and flew away.

“Let’s go!”

A five-year-old boy, carrying more ores than he could carry, followed his companions.

From time to time, he would look in the helicopter’s direction and wonder if its passengers would be back.

In the meantime, Bradley was on his way to the village to deliver things. He frowned when he saw those children.

Isn’t life too hard for these little kids?

“Children, where are you heading? I’ll take you there.” He lowered the window and pulled up beside them.

The kids cast a vigilant look at the driver and remained silent.

Why are they looking at me as if I’m a human trafficker?

Feeling awkward, Bradley explained, “I’m not a bad person. I’m going to the village chief’s house now. Are you from this village?”

Despite his kindness, the children only looked at him. They did not dare to get in his car even though they really wanted to take up his offer. After all, he was a stranger.

Just then, he saw the youngest child and felt a pang of sadness in his heart when he met the little boy’s crystal-clear eyes.

The boy was so young, but the weight of his basket was not much lesser than his companions’.

How pitiful.

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to take a ride. I have some food here. You can share them.”

Bradley handed them a loaf of bread and some fruits.

Still, no one dared to accept.

Suddenly, he was at a loss.

“I live there, and I’m really on my way to the village chief’s house. Since I’m leaving the village soon, I’m giving this to you. Take it!”

“Previously, we even planned to go and see if they’re human traffickers. I’m glad we didn’t do it?”

“We can’t be sure if he’s a bad guy or not. Anyway, my mother said we shouldn’t follow a stranger. Or else we’ll be abducted.”

“Yes, we’re kids. It’s better to be careful.”

On his way back after the delivery to the village chief’s house, Bradley saw those children at the entrance of the village.

Hence, he greeted them before driving past them.

He could not help but glance at the rear-view mirror.

Then, he saw one child whip around to look at the car before turning back and following everyone else.

Poor children. They have to help their families at such a young age.

Shaking those thoughts off, he packed up his belongings and drove back to Dellmoor.

On the flight, Arissa felt an inexplicable emptiness, as if she had left something important behind.

However, she retraced her steps mentally and was sure that she had packed everything.

“Are you reluctant to leave?”
