My Blind Husband

Mrs. Lydia hesitated, glancing at Cherise. “But… Mrs. Lenoir hasn’t donated yet…”

Cherise squinted her eyes, realizing once again that Mrs. Lydia was no simple woman; she was keenly observing her all along, which explained her hesitation.

Her impression of Mrs. Lydia had already soured with the matter outside of the auditorium.

Now, she was convinced that Mrs. Lydia was benefiting from these children.

This only fueled her determination to adopt Alexis..

“You see, I have my eye on a child named Alexis.”

“I would like to know, if I donate one million to the orphanage, would I be able to adopt this child?”

Cherise believed that one million was a substantial amount in Mrs. Lydia’s eyes.

Yolanda laughed in a mocking manner, sending her fiery gaze at Cherise.
