Justin had prepared himself to be rejected by Camila, but he hadn’t expected this kind of response.
He paused for a moment, a hint of joy flickering in his eyes.
“okay, let’s go now.‘
In the Chavez family villa, Camila watched the little girl holding a teddy bear through the French windows.
A trace of pity flashed in his eyes
In the world of missions, she had seen mamy children.
Her own son, Willie, was always full of vitality and his eyes were filled with light, ast

But no child was like the girl in front of me, with no light in her eyes, huddled in the corner holding a teddy bear timidly.
Perhaps there still remained some maternal love in her body, as Camila’s eyes were filled with renderness
Justin’s words were also full of regret
Her name is Grace, she is six years old. Two years ago, she was in a car accident with her parents. Her parents protected her tightly under their bodies, so she survived. Because she witnessed her parents‘ death with her own eyes, her condition has been very poor. She is afraid to communicate with others. and atrand to go out. She is always in a state of fear and must have someone with her 24 hours a day.
He pushed open the villa gate while speaking
As soon as she entered, Grace Chavez, who heard the noise, quickly ran over, wanting to throw herself into Justin’s arms.
As soon as she saw Camila next to him, the little girl’s face instantly turned terrified, and she screamed while running back to hide inside the tent.
“Grace, it’s okay, Dad is here, Gita won’t hurt you‘
Justin squatted in front of Grace’s tent and locked on the tent door.
Camila also paused beside him and whispered.
“Grace, I am Camila, and I have so many stories to tell you. Do you want to listen?”
The two of them coaxed for a while, and only then did Grace unzip the tent, cautiously poking her head out.
She extended her hands for Justin to embrace only after receiving confirmation from both individuals.
That night, she finally heard her dad and “nom” telling her bedtime stories again.
This is the first peaceful sleep she has had since the car accident.
Camila did not agree to Justin’s proposal of marriage, as she had just started getting to know Grace. She wanted to first bond with the child and make sure the child liked her before they discussed the idea of getting married.
Justin also expressed his support and understanding
Since that day, the two of them would often take Grace to wander around the city.
Went to ride the Ferris wheel, watched the fireworks bloom at the highest point, went to the beach to walk in the waves, and picked seashells under the
I went to a revolving restaura
and had a satisfying buffet meal.
In just two months, under the care of Justin and Camila’s love, the smile on Grace’s face also started to increase,
Justin’s parents, Marcel Chavez and Carlee Cluvez, were very touched by this.
After the dinner, Carler sat on the sola, holding Camila’s hand, her eyes slightly red
“Ganila, thank you so much for taking such good care of Grace.”
“This child suffered so much, I thought she would never be able to overcome it, thankfully there is you.”
To show her gratitude, Carlee took off the bracelet she had been wearing for years and pet ta on Cainila’s hand.
“No, I can’t accept this.”
“Take it, child, this is a small token of my appreciation and gratitude.”
Justin walked over, holding the child, and patted her shoulder.
“Take it, Camila.”
Camila finally put the bracelet on her own hand.
Grace wriggled out of Justin’s embrace and threw herself into her own arms..
“Mom”
Camila held the child in her arms, and a warm atmosphere spread.
Unfortunately, I was quickly interrupted again.
