The owner's sister returned after a while. She was the sage as Charlotte. She was dressed more fashionably with her ears, nose, and lip pierced. Her clothes were more of the punk rock street style. "I'm a musician." Her voice was gentle and she smiled like an angel.

Charlotte was confused, but was in no mood to question her outfit. She just nodded repeatedly.

Charlotte was led to a bedroom and the girl went downstairs. She leaned against the bar and said, "Taking in strays again? You already have me, can you manage another one?" "She's different from you. She has loved ones." The owner smiled.

"Yeah, it's obvious she has led a sheltered life. Unlike us, we cfrom the wrong side of the tracks." The girl snorted twice and pulled out a harmonica from her pocket.

The tune sounded as crisp and clear as a piano. The owner tousled her hair. "Silly child, as long as we are alive, we are already much better than them." Her lips trembled and the notes sounded out of tune. She took a deep breath and continued playing the harmonica.

Charlotte showered, changed into the clothes laid out by the girl, and went downstairs. She stopped in her tracks when she heard the music. The owner had already spotted her and waved at her. Charlotte smiled and resumed walking towards them.

Charlotte learned the owner's nwas Ryan and the girl was Evelyn. Two of them were not biological siblings, but two orphans relying on each other for survival.

"It's cool to own a cafe in the city." Charlotte sighed.

"My brother's the amazing one. I'm just a burden to him." Evelyn put the harmonica back into her pocket and sprawled on the table. "I can only earn four to five thousand yuan per month. I can barely pay rent." "How much does this cafe usually earn?" Charlotte was curious.

"In a good month, maybe 40,000 yuan. If not, it's about 10,000 yuan. The rent is 7,000 yuan," Ryan replied. "That's why I still have ssavings." They had a good life. Outsiders might think their life was grueling, but their attitude of finding joy was rare.

Ryan took sbeer and went to the kitchen to make fried chicken. Three of them sat in a corner enjoying the food and the rain. Later, Evelyn clamored to watch a gaming tournament in which her favorite player was competing, so Ryan and Charlotte accompanied her.

Charlotte thought that it was nice having each other in life.

Ryan let Evelyn have the bedroom on the second floor, so they slept separately.

An air bed on the floor with a heater made for a good night's sleep, too.

"Why don't you head upstairs to sleep?" Evelyn suggested to Charlotte.

"There's no need. I think I'll leave in a while." Evelyn gave her a look, then at her brother. She shrugged and said, "Ryan, are you really going to let her leave?" She finished her words, turned and ran upstairs.

Charlotte and Ryan were at a loss for words.

Ryan brought two air mattresses and electric blankets, and handed one of each to Charlotte. "I only have these. You'll just have to make do." "It's fine." Charlotte positioned the mattress against the wall and settled down for the night. She curled up and pulled the blanket over herself.

Ryan noticed her, walked over and sat down beside her. "Letperform a magic trick for you." "Hmm?" She looked at him curiously.

Ryan snapped his fingers in the air and a coin appeared in his hand.

Charlotte was surprised.

He tossed the coin in the air and caught it. He kneaded the coin in his palms and it transformed into a handkerchief. He turned his body sideways and stuffed it back into his palm again. This time, he slowly tugged a flower out of his closed palm and waved it in front of Charlotte. In a flurry, the flower turned into a toy bunny. "It should have been a living bunny, but I don't know how to take care of one." Ryan shrugged. "You're amazing." Charlotte took the bunny from him. She didn't see a coin or a handkerchief in his hands. "If this shop shuts down, I could still perform magic tricks and play the guitar. At least I won't starve to death." Ryan smiled and snapped his fingers, the coin reappeared in his hand.

He toyed with the coin and his gaze drifted mindlessly. "I hope I could meet my parents one day and care for them. Although life isn't smoothsailing now, I can still make ends meet with my savings." "Many people won't be able to have a positive outlook like you." Charlotte laughed, "Don't sell yourself short. You're a good person." "Thank you." Charlotte shook her head.

Speople just needed a chance, and speople might not appreciate the chances given to them.

Not knowing how much thad passed, Charlotte fell asleep in a daze. Noises filtered into her slumber. She felt her body being lifted, as if she was carried. She wanted to struggle, but she had no strength. "She's having a fever again," said a familiar voice.

Was it Avery or Rick? Charlotte fell asleep and couldn't move.

Shane looked at her in his arms and his expression finally relaxed. "Avery, please find a doctor." "Don't worry, the doctor's already waiting at your doorstep." Avery glanced at Charlotte and sighed, "She's really lucky to run into someone who took her in, what with this weather." "Thank you." Shane faced Ryan.

"Are you her family members?" Ryan asked.

After all, they all looked young.

Although Ryan did not recognize the brand, he could tell their clothes were quite expensive Notwithstanding their attire, the way they carried themselves differed from the norm.

Charlotte claimed she was an orphan. What was their relationship with her? Ryan got increasingly uncomfortable as he thought about it. How could someone as good as her bectheir plaything? "I'm her fiance," Shane replied, He lowered his gaze at Charlotte, his eyes filled with tender love.

Rick observed the scene and turned away to give them sprivacy.

Until now, he still couldn't cto grips with the sight of Shane openly acknowledging his love for Charlotte.

"She mentioned she was an orphan, so I guessed she probably had a quarrel with her boyfriend or husband and ran away," Ryan said with a relieved smile.

That man did look like he was in love with her.

"They have a child together. This was all just a misunderstanding." Avery explained. "Mr. Euller, you can leave with Rick first. I'll stay here." "Sorry to trouble you." "Hey, it's no big deal." Avery slapped his shoulder good-naturedly.

Shane carried Charlotte in his arms and Rick held an umbrella over them. Three of them left the coffee shop and disappeared into the rain.

Ryan did not understand the purpose of Avery staying behind, so he asked, "Sir, is there something amiss?" "I just want to clear things up to avoid any confusion," Avery started.

Ryan immediately understood what he meant. He waved his hand and said, "You don't have to thank me. It was a coincidence that I met Charlotte. I was just doing my part." "I understand." Avery took out a blank cheque.

"This is a token of our gratitude. If this isn't to your satisfaction, feel free to tellyour request. After all, Charlotte is very important to us." X
