151 Chapter 151: Adopting Gwen

Don't care?

The police officers were a little surprised to see how lightly Mike said it.

Oliver waved his hand and said, "Wait here, I'll go and get you processed."

I'm going to go and check on Mike's file and make sure he's the right family.

Mike waited quietly with Gwen.

A few moments later, Oliver came out with a smile on his face.

Mike have a good background, with only one adopted child who is now an adult.

Although single, he is rich.

No wonder he didn't care about George's little inheritance.

What surprised him was that Mike's profile indicated that he was in his fifties.

But looking at Mike's face, he didn't look like he was in his fifties, except for the silver hair on his temples, which looked like it had been dyed on purpose.

He looked at Mike strangely and said, "Mike, you're over fifty?"

As soon as the words were out of his mouth, the police officers in one of the rooms looked at Mike with a swish of surprise in their eyes.

The corners of Mike's mouth twitched and he nodded.

There was an immediate sigh of surprise, even as two of the female officers looked at Mike with a twinkle in their eyes, intending to ask him later how he maintained his job.

You guys have a lot of special effects in your eyes ...

Mike let out a sigh of frustration.

Oliver said, "You don't have any problem adopting Gwen, if you want to adopt the materials, I'll send them to your house after George's funeral."

Mike had no problem with that and asked, "When's the funeral?"

He would have to bring Gwen to it.

Oliver murmured and said, "The day after tomorrow."

Mike nodded and said, "If there's nothing else today, I'll take Gwen home."

The policemen nodded and the two policewomen said at the same time, "I'll see them off!"

As they walked Mike and the two men to the door, the two policewomen couldn't resist asking Mike in a whisper, "Mr Kent, how do you maintain it?"

"Maintain?" Mike raised an eyebrow and said, "More sunlight."

With a smile on his lips, he left with Gwen, to the blank stares of the two policewomen.

...

George Stacey was given a hero's funeral.

But whatever the glory of death, the man was gone.

He was a very dedicated police officer and was well liked in the police department.

On the day of the funeral, Mike took Gwen to the funeral so that Gwen could give his dad a final send-off.

On the way out, Mike gets Gwen's adoption papers from Oliver and a file folder.

The moment he got the adoption papers, a voice from the system sounded in Mike's head.

Scanning the system, Mike smiled.

This time, when he was given the adoption papers, the system confirmed that Gwen had become his daughter, which was really something.

But ...

Gwen Kent?

Last name, changed?

He looked at the adoption papers and saw that the name on them was the same as the system's. It was Gwen Kent.

Had it been changed by Oliver?

Mike muttered in his mind, put the adoption papers in place and left the funeral with Gwen in his hand.

When they got to the car, with Gwen in the back seat, Mike opened another folder and looked at it.

Inside were some keys and estate papers and the like.

He would have to take Gwen back to see if there was anything Gwen wanted to take with her.

With his mind made up, Mike looked at the address and drove to Gwen's house.

Mike thought that Gwen would bring a lot of things with her, but to his surprise, Gwen only brought a group photo and told Mike to lock the door.

This was once a home.

Gwen won't be coming back for a long time.

Mike handed the key to Gwen.

But Gwen shook her head and pushed the key to Mike, saying, "I'll lose it."

"Then I'll give it to you when you're older."

Gwen nodded.

He was only six years old, but she had been through so much, and she knew so much that it hurt Mike's heart.

After taking Gwen to buy some clothes and daily necessities, Mike went back home.

"Gwen, this is your room."

Gwen finally smiled as she looked at the lovely room that Mike had decorated with such care.

She hadn't even noticed when it had been decorated.

"Uncle ..., I'll put my own things away!"

Gwen whispered, clutching the clothes Mike had bought for her, and said to Mike.

She didn't know what to call Mike.

Mike froze, touched Gwen's head and said, "Okay, what do you want to eat for lunch today?"

"Anything."

Gwen was a little formal.

Although she had been with Mike for a few days, she kept his manners.

Gwen may be young, but she's already grown up, and it's only natural that she won't fit in with her new family for a while.

Mike understood this, so he was in no hurry, although he would have liked to hear Gwen call himself Dad.

"I'll go and make dinner."

Mike said and turned to the kitchen.

With a new little family member in the house, he was suddenly excited to cook!

Mike smiled, planning to make some of Gwen's favourite dishes.

Although Gwen hadn't said so, after a few days together, Mike had managed to pick up on Gwen's favourite flavours under his observation.

------

While Mike was preparing, Gwen had already packed up her things and walked carefully to the kitchen door, watching Mike work and giving a smile, then hastily retreating behind the wall when Mike looked over.

Mike couldn't help but laugh.

Gwen heard the laughter and once again showed her head and asked in a small voice, "Can I help with anything?"

"Please peel this."

With a smile on his face, Gwen happily came over and took the garlic and walked over to the bin, peeling the garlic and gave it back to Mike, then continued looking carefully at the pan as Mike fried the onions and garlic, licking her lips every now and then.

A few moments later, Mike brought the food to the table and Gwen helped to put away the cutlery.

Gwen was very happy to see Gwen eating and Mike was very satisfied too.

When they had finished eating, Mike said, "Gwen, do you want to go to school tomorrow?"

Gwen thought for a moment and nodded.

She hadn't been to school for a few days.

"Well, I'll take you to school tomorrow, your old school."

Gwen gave a smile.
