Chapter 15

The live–streaming channel instantly exploded. [Gosh! That boy is shocking!“]

[He just said Laura’is under his protection! Ah, ah, ah! What a bittersweet story! I feel like I’m witnessing a real–life drama right before my eyes. Isn’t this just like the protagonists during their childhood?]

[I actually find a young boy handsome! I’m in! Maybe I should take better care of myself. I’m willing to wait a few more years for you to grow up!]

[Me too! I’m willing to wait for you!]

[Ha–ha, girls, please stop! He’s still a kid after all!]

[He belongs to Laura! No one is allowed to snatch him away!]

The livestream trending topic surged again with the title: [Laura is under my protection!]

The video showed Zayn confidently facing the live streamers and calling over a group of his little followers to pelt these live streamers.

[Ha–ha, isn’t this the ending of a feel–good story? I can’t believe I’m witnessing a satisfying ending acted by a group of kids!]

[What’s this story about a domineering young man and his adorable little girlfriend? I can’t handle it! I’m sold! Can I witness them being together in my lifetime?]

[He’s so brave! His body isn’t even trembling, and his eyes are like those of a wolfling! Fantastic!]

[I can’t believe I’m envious of a little girl!]

[I’m addicted to them! Laura might have had a tough life, but she’s really amazing. She’s brave, fights back, and has a boy willing to help her by her side!]

[Go for it, handsome young man! Protect your future wife well!]

More and more people flooded into the live–streaming channel, all praising Laura and Zayn.

Antonio remained in the corner, observing quietly.

He watched as Zayn protected his daughter like a wolfling, his eyes narrowing slightly. He had the urge to step forward, but he restrained himself.

There was a livestream, and he didn’t want to reveal himself.

He exchanged a meaningful glance with the dean.

The dean of the orphanage entered the room and announced loudly, “That’s enough. I’ve just

received news that Laura’s family is on their way here. They will come to take Laura home. So, I suggest you all leave now and avoid making me call the police.”

The expressions of the live streamers changed suddenly, not expecting this turn of events.

Yet, the live–streaming channel was filled with cheers. [Great!]

[This is an even better outcome!]

[Ha–ha, this is so satisfying!]

[What are you waiting for? Get out of there!]

They frowned with disgust and muttered, “What is this nonsense? They wanted us to adopt her? We’re not interested in adopting her. There’s no need to put on a show!”

“Can orphans even set their own values?” they thought angrily.

They all left, casting resentful glances at Laura before departing.

Zayn held Laura’s hand tightly, watching the live streamers as they walked away.

As they left, the room quickly quieted down. What was once akin to a bustling marketplace returned to being a peaceful classroom.

Laura let out a sigh of relief and gratefully looked at the dean, saying in her sweet voice, “Thank you for helping.”

Dean snorted and chuckled. “Why are you thanking me? I was telling the truth. Your family has come to take you away.”

She blinked in surprise, and Zayn mirrored her reaction. “Who is that?”

Antonio’s voice rang out. “It’s me.”

When Laura heard this familiar voice, her heart skipped a beat as she turned to look in the direction of the sound.

Antonio strode in with a commanding presence, accompanied by his three sons.

In a well–tailored suit that contrasted with the slightly outdated style of the orphanage, he fixated his sharp eyes on Laura, seeming to pierce through her heart. “Laura, I know your maternal uncle, who is your mother’s brother. He’ll take you home.”

Antonio paused for a moment before continuing, “From now on, you’ll have a home.”
