âChapter 142 Flash Marriage He Made My Jaw Drop Marian had always wanted to get rid of Eve, her family was just average, and raising another outsider was just an extra burden, and she must feel uncomfortable.
She was not a saint, just an ordinary woman.
When she gave birth to her youngest son, she asked Simon to send Eve back to the orphanage, but they no longer accepted her.
There was this rule when it was first adopted.
Marian and Simon were Eveâs guardians, so Eve was not an orphan anymore, so they mustnât throw her away, otherwise they would constitute a crime of abandonment.
Marian also deliberately took Eve to crowded stations several times, trying to abandon her, but Simon finally found her back.
Marian was very angry. There were so many human traffickers abducting children every year, why no one abducted Eve.
Damien gave Marian a sharp look, and then asked Eve softly, âWould you like to go home with me?â
Eve didnât speak, she was full of tears and looked in Marianâs direction.
She still didnât understand why her mother didnât want her.
Marian gave Eve a fierce look, and cursed, âDa mn girl, go with this man quickly, and donât come back anymore.â
Eve trembled in fright, and her eyes timidly avoided Marian and curled up in Damienâs arms.
At this moment, Marianâs youngest son burst into tears, so Marian didnât have the mood to care about Eve, and sarcastically said to Damien, âHurry up and take this da mn girl away, since you like to meddle in otherâs business, so Iâll let you raise her. If you really support her and send her to school, then I really admire you.â
In Marianâs view, raising other peopleâs children was the behavior of a fool.
If it wasnât because she hadnât been pregnant and the witch said she needed to adopt one, she wouldnât have adopted Eve back.
Marian went to the room to hold her youngest son and didnât care about Eve at all.
It was the first time Damien saw such a cold-blooded and hard-hearted woman, he hugged Eve, âCome home with me.â
Damien didnât know if he would meddle in other childrenâs business, but looking at Eve in front of him, he couldnât just leave her in danger.
Damien took Eve back, wiped Eveâs tears, and checked Eveâs injuries.
Her body was covered with red streaks from the duster, and some wounds were swollen.
Damien frowned, found the medicine box, and treated Eveâs injuries.
Although Eve was just five years old, she was not as delicate as other children of the same age.
Damien disinfected Eveâs wound. It hurt so much but Eve could bear it and make no sound.
The stronger Eve was, the more uncomfortable Damien felt.
As soon as the wounds were treated, Vivienne came back. Seeing that Eve was still at home, she asked Damien, âDidnât you send Eve back?â
Damien gave Eve some fruit from the kitchen, âEve has been beaten again, so I brought her back.â
Hearing this, Vivienne put down her bag nervously, checked Eveâs injuries, and turned to look at Damien, âMarian did that?â
This was too cruel, it seemed that Marian wanted to beat her to death, how could she do that to such a small kid?
âYes.â Damien sat down on the sofa and said, âVivienne, do you mind Eve staying with us for a few days?â
âNot at all.â Vivienne held Eve in her arms and said, âI wish Eve can live here with us.â
Vivienne was also a soft-hearted person. If she didnât know what happened to Eve, she wouldnât do anything. But knowing that Eve was abused by Marian and the CPS couldnât improve her life, she felt sorry for her and wanted to do something to help her.
Damien nodded, âItâs late, Vivienne, take Eve to rest first.â
Going to bed early was conducive to childrenâs growth.
Eve was a girl, so it was not suitable for Damien to accompany and coax her to sleep.
