Johanna’s face immediately changed. A mix of complicated emotions flashed across her eyes.

“Are you saying that you’re adopted?” she asked urgently, as if to confirm a crucial truth.

Tears started to well up in Johanna’s eyes. She patted Natalie’s shoulder and went on to ask, “How did the Quinn family adopt you?”

Natalie shook her head. Her memory of it was long gone. Besides, she didn’t want to recall such sad memories from her childhood, so she had been deliberately avoiding thinking about what happened in the past.
