Chapter 1703

"Who knows? Adoption for unusual reasons can be pretty common. I've heard about some families that adopt children for pretty strange reasons," Lisa said, pouting.

Serenity pursed her lips, pondering something. Just then, Cynthia came running back carrying a small satchel instead of a school bag this time. She took Caden's hand and said to Serenity, "Aunt Serene, let's take Caden to the hospital."

"Alright. Let's go," Serenity said, smiling.

Lisa shrugged. When everyone got into the car, Serenity asked Cynthia, "Did you talk to your parents when you got home?"

"Well, I left a note," Cynthia said, but she knew it did not really matter. Her father would not care if she and Caden were out all night, let alone her stepmother. Besides, her stepmother would love to see her and Caden gone.

Lisa drove the car to the hospital. While they were on the way, Serenity saw Cynthia holding Caden's hand tightly. The siblings were very close, and it seemed like they only had each other to rely on.
