v2 Chapter 288: the pace of progress

Aldridge said with a smile, "Then the boss, listen to me?"

"roll."

Carula immediately revealed her true identity, but Aldridge liked her reaction, and it would undoubtedly be a pity to lose a friend because of reality.

After the joke, Aldridge added, "If you want to scale up, the original place may not be big enough."

The original yard was really not that big, leaving little room for the children to move around, and Carula didn’t allow the children to go out casually—there weren’t many kind adopters out there, and there were quite a few traffickers.

Carula heard what he meant and wondered if "the house is starting to lay its foundation..."

"It's okay," Aldridge didn't care about the small amount of money, "Isn't the owner of that piece of land you?"

"Well, it's just approved for our use."

Aldridge smiled and said, "That's fine, I'll prepare a new place, um... I'll be sure in about a week."

Carula and Herbert could only agree.

There was nothing to talk about about Norton, and they were determined to cancel the contract, so Aldridge agreed and took Norton back to train himself.

In his impression, although this little guy is not particularly smart, he is a good boy with a kind-hearted personality. It may not be enough to become an Beyonder, but it is still possible to be a peripheral member.

Aldridge was in a good mood when the matter was settled properly, but Herbert had something to talk to him about.

When only the two of them were left, Herbert asked him, "What's the difference between the regular members and the peripheral members?"

Apparently, he was already thinking about formally joining the organization.

Aldridge smiled and said, "Enjoy your rights and fulfill your obligations."

He gave Herbert some rough hints, but more could only be known after becoming a full member.

Herbert hesitated for a long time, still unable to make up his mind, but said, "Let me think about it."

"This is your right." Aldridge was not surprised, this is not a trivial matter, and many of the things he said were considered harsh in Herbert's cognition.

The matter was settled like this. The next day Karula went to terminate the agreement on the construction of the new building. The two sides communicated very well. The builder did not mention liquidated damages or anything, but the deposit was definitely not refundable.

In the afternoon, Norton, whose face was gray and lost, was led back by the resolute Carula, but at the same time, there was the soon-to-be "divorced" Mrs. McBlind.

As the new owner of the orphanage, Aldridge received the looming haggard-looking lady with a god-like look in her eyes.

Just like the first time we met, she had an outstanding temperament and a good sense of self-cultivation. Instead of showing a sullen face in front of Aldrich, who was an outsider, she had a natural smile on her face.

Norton was not present, and Aldridge and Carula sat opposite Mrs. McBerlin, smiling, "What do you mean by coming here today?"

Mrs. McBerlin squeezed her hands secretly and said calmly, "Mr. McBerlin wants to give up adopting Norton. I have no power to object. I believe you have also heard about my situation."

Aldridge didn't speak, just listened quietly, but Carula shouted in unison, "That man is really not a thing!"

Mrs. McBerlin's face showed a bit of bitterness, and said, "I can't have children. It's really not suitable for the McBerlin family who needs Zisi to continue the family business. No one can blame it."

This has a very traditional flavor of a flower girl, although Aldridge does not like this tradition.

Mrs. McBerlin quickly picked up her expression and said to Aldridge, "My marriage contract with McBerlin will be terminated within a week, and I hope to adopt Norton alone after contacting the engagement contract."

"Really?" Karula blinked in surprise.

Aldrich pierced Carula's head with a 'spirit', and told the woman to shut up.

He hesitated for a few seconds and said seriously, "This is not necessarily a good thing for you."

It is not a big deal for a woman to remarry, after all, the current atmosphere is not that conservative, but a woman with a child, no matter how beautiful she is, will find it difficult to marry a good family.

"I won't accept a new marriage again." Mrs. McBerlin shook her head. "My parents left me a lot of money, enough for me and Norton to live well."

"But imperial law would not agree."

This woman is in her 30s, at most under 35. It is not in compliance with the regulations to independently adopt a child who has reached the age of 12. It is similar to the situation that Aldrich wanted to adopt Eve at that time.

"You don't have to sign a contract," the lady said immediately.

Aldridge refused more directly. Adoption is not a child's play, and he is not familiar with this woman. Is it like not signing a contract?

"I believe Norton is also willing to live with me." Mrs. MacBlin finally stopped smiling and said with a frown.

But Aldridge refused more thoroughly, and the two sides eventually broke up.

"This woman is a little weird."

Aldridge muttered after she was gone.

Carula said angrily, "It's weird there? People have taken care of Norton for so long, what if they don't sign the contract?"

Aldridge said, "If she had such a plan, why didn't Norton know?"

Carula was stunned for a moment, and hesitated, "It's nothing, right? Maybe I forgot to say..."

"You have also seen Norton's state," Aldridge shook his head and said, "Anyway, the marriage contract is to be terminated. I really want to adopt and don't need to hide the child."

Norton seems to have lost his soul, and the difference in mental state is visible to the naked eye.

Maybe Aldridge thinks too much, but he really doesn't have much trust in strangers. It is better to avoid adoption without signing a legal contract~lightnovelpub.net~ This is also responsible for Norton.

Although he brought Eve back without signing a contract.

Aldridge put this matter aside and asked Carula to temporarily arrange Norton to the orphanage where the other friends were temporarily staying. After the new orphanage was built, he would pick him up. There are other friends who can adjust his mental state. better.

Another day passed, and Aldrich, who was almost familiar with his grown-up body, started a new round of busyness.

The first is the new site for the orphanage.

In the Wagnerian Empire, as long as there are enough Kinnars, land is not a big deal.

He spent 1,100 kinnars to buy a second-hand manor near the suburbs in Spurzy. It is only a little smaller than the 'Mystery Mansion', the building is complete and the garden is dilapidated, more than enough for 100 children, and the most important thing is It is convenient, just need to ask someone to do a certain amount of renovation.

Only then did Carula realize how rich Aldridge was...

In addition, Iger, code-named 'Eagle', has almost recovered from his body. Accompanied by Sunderland, he has officially entered the Extraordinary.

At the same time, Sunderland and Dylan, the two Beyonders who first followed Aldridge, also successfully completed the process of being promoted to rank 2 within these two days.
