The person in front of him smiled at him, making his eyes well up with tears.
Leonel Holloway grew up together with Victor in an orphanage.
He was a few years older than Lizeth Gould.
So they both protected him together.
Just with different destinies, he and Lizeth were adopted by loving families one after another.
He was the only one who stayed at the Orphanage, and in the end, he was sponsored by the McCann
family.
Looking at the thin and weak boy in front of him, Leonel’s eyes were filled with pity.
Back then, under the care of him and Lizeth, Victor was also a happy little boy.
But later on, fate played a trick on them, and they were adopted by different people, one after
another.
Back then, we were all young and didn’t have any means of communication, so the three of us lost
touch like that.
Over the years, he had also been searching for the other two individuals, but in the end, he only
found Lizeth.
Until later, he saw news about Kaleigh’s marriage on the McCann family official website.
He only found out that Victor had married Kaleigh.
He knew all the things Kaleigh had done, and it made him even more heartbroken. A once lively and
cheerful person was left scarred by this marriage.
After learning that he came to Glasston for further studies, he discussed with Lizeth and decided to
move to Marbletown.
The two of them chatted for a while, and only then did Victor find out that he had married Lizeth. In
order to see him sooner, they also moved to Marbletown.
This time, he couldn’t hold back his tears anymore and wanted to vent all the grievances of these
years.
After meeting Lizeth at the dinner party in the evening, he cried again, just as he had done before.
The three of them chatted for a long time.

Lizeth brought the dish he liked to eat in front of him and asked with concern.
“Victor, what were your plans for the future?”
Victor finished the last piece of steak on his plate and shook his head.
“There was nothing for now, but what I thought of was to graduate first, then organize my own art exhibition or find a job that I like. As for going back to my home country…”
His eyes flickered with confusion.
Are you going back? Definitely, he must go back to see the dean’s mother. After all, on the day he
said goodbye to the dean’s mother, he secretly put some money in his own bag.
But going back to the country also meant meeting Kaleigh again, and thinking about all the crazy things he had done, his brow furrowed lightly.
The two couples exchanged glances and quickly changed the subject.
“Let’s have a meal first, we will think about the future later, and we will all support you.”
In the blink of an eye, another deep autumn arrived, and Victor also had his graduation ceremony.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Victor felt a thousand emotions. He had finally waited for his graduation ceremony, which was delayed for five years.
“Victor, congratulations on your graduation.”
“Victor, congratulations on your graduation.”

Friends sent bouquets to him one after another to wish him well, causing his eyes to turn red again.
At the last meal with his friends, Victor also let loose and had a few drinks.
The bitter wine slid down the throat, and a sour taste surged up in the heart.
After thinking about it, it became difficult to meet several people again. Everyone cried and laughed, and the commotion lasted until late at night.
A week later, Victor packed his luggage, bid farewell to his friends and Glasston, and returned to his home country with Leonel and Lizeth.
Not for long–term residence, just temporarily.
One reason was to come back and visit the dean’s mother, while the other reason was to fulfill a friend’s request and collaborate with him to organize an art exhibition.

Looking at the dean’s mother whom he hadn’t seen in two years, Victor’s eyes welled up with tears again.
The dean touched his hand and heard that he had completed his studies and achieved his dream, and his eyes were filled with satisfaction.
As they were chatting, the dean suddenly spoke up.
“By the way, not long after you went abroad, Kaleigh came to the Orphanage to ask me about your whereabouts.”
