Chapter 4 Will he abandon her again?
Peter asked around, but no one knew.
They were shivering in the cold corridor, and the Birch Family refused to see them. They just felt extremely tortured.
Old Mrs Madsen was the first to leave, "I'm going to see Merle... "
Merle is also in this hospital, but in another obstetrics and gynecology building.
Peter and Old Mr Madsen couldn't bear it either, but they didn't dare to leave, so they could only stay next to each other ...
They complained endlessly in their hearts, but little did they know that this was just the beginning!
**
The beeping sound of the machine could be heard in Lene's ears. Someone was speaking, but it was very vague.
But there is a voice that is very clear????
[ Lene , little Lene... Hey, little Lene ! ]
[Wake up, ok? If you don't wake up, I will ... ]
The sound was buzzing, and Lene felt as if a group of bees were talking in her ears. It was a little noisy.
Whose voice is this?
Lene's eyelashes trembled, and she finally opened her eyes, and what she saw was the snow-white wall.
There was a group of people surrounding the bed. She pursed her lips and looked around carefully.
Elliot was the most excited and spoke first, " Lene , you're awake! I'm your uncle ... "
of the Birch Family didn't dare to breathe and looked at Lene nervously .
Little Lene was confused. "Uncle?"
There was no expression on her pretty little face, and she looked wooden, like a fragile porcelain doll.
The word "uncle" sounded more like repeating a word.
Old Mr Birch's mouth was pursed into a straight line. Little Lene was very thin. She lay on the hospital bed, which seemed very big and she was very small.
It's so heartbreaking that I can hardly breathe.
Elliot slowed down his voice and said softly, " Lene , I'm your mother's brother, Elliot . You called me before, do you remember?"
Lene's eyelashes trembled, and after a long time she finally hummed.
She remembered ...
She called her uncle.
But they ignored her.
Don't they want her?
"Are you ... here to pick me up?" Lene asked weakly.
Several grown men in front of the bed nodded vigorously, and Anders said, " Lene , I'm your third uncle, we're here to take Lene home."
Old Mr. Birch's throat seemed to be blocked. He took a deep breath and said, "Yes, take Lene home. No one can bully you in the future. If anyone bullies you, Grandpa will never forgive him."
Lene rolled his eyes and looked around.
go home?
Lene wasn't sure, would they abandon her after taking her 'home'?
Will he beat her? Will he not give her food?
Seeing that little Lene was silent, the men of Birch Family became extremely anxious.
None of them had any experience in raising children, so they all looked at Matheo and Lars Birch .
The eldest, Matheo, is 40 years old and has two children. Lars is 38 years old and also has two children.
But Matheo is not good at coaxing children. He hesitated and said, " What is Lene worried about?"
His voice was as cold and hard as ever, and he was glared at by the other brothers as soon as he finished speaking.
Theo Birch coughed. He was a taciturn person and couldn't utter a word for a long time.
I was so anxious that I almost turned around on the spot.
Elliot sighed, leaned over to the bedside, touched Lene 's head lovingly, and said softly, " Lene , tell your uncle, what is Lene's name?"
Lene stared at the ceiling and was silent for a while before saying, " Lene doesn't have a name. Lene is just Lene ."
Dad said he was too lazy to name her and would decide after Auntie gave birth to her younger brother.
So she doesn't have a name, Lene was given by her mother.
Elliot felt a slight pain in his heart. What kind of life was it for a child who didn't even have a name to live in the Madsen Family ?
He secretly suppressed the anger in his heart and asked again, "Then Lene tell your uncle, what is Lene thinking?"
Lene finally turned his gaze back, and with some effort, turned his head to look at the man in front of him who called himself his uncle.
That day, her world was frozen in darkness, but the person before her broke through the darkness like a ray of light.
Lene pursed her lips and asked, "Uncle, let's go home ...Does Lene have food to eat?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.
Is there any food to eat when you get home ?
Before he could react, Lene whispered again, "Will you hit me?"
Just two sentences almost made the old man cry.
The little guy was actually afraid of not having food to eat and being beaten.
So how was she abused when she was in the Madsen Family ? !
I don't have enough to eat and I don't have enough clothes to wear in winter.
There is no one around when I wake up from a nightmare at night, and no one cares when my clothes are soaked with sweat in the summer.
Old Mr Birch turned his back, pursed his lips until his face fell, and he tried to hold back his tears, his eyes reddening.
The Birch Family brothers clenched their fists in anger, but they were afraid of scaring Lene , and they didn't dare to show any emotion.
Elliot grabbed Lene 's little hand, put it on his face, and said in a hoarse voice, " Be good Lene , eat whatever you want when you get home, and no one will beat you . "
"Look, this is my eldest uncle, this is my second uncle, this is my third uncle ... They are all very capable."
"We will all protect Lene . No one can hurt Lene anymore ."
Lene clutched the quilt tightly with her little hands and remained silent for a long time.
Just when everyone in the Birch Family thought she would not speak again, she suddenly said, "Uncle, Lene did not push anyone. Dad and Grandpa asked Lene to admit his mistake, but Lene refused ... "
She repeated stubbornly, with some stubbornness on her face and even a gloomy look in her eyes.
Lene wondered, did her uncles really like her?
If you knew that she refused to admit her mistake, would you still want this disobedient bad child?
Elliot's throat seemed to be blocked by a ball of cotton, and his eyes turned red. The old man couldn't help wiping his eyes any longer.
Matheo said calmly, "Uncle believes it wasn't you, and you are right not to admit your mistake."
Elliot nodded as well. "They are wrong. Lene is right. Lene did a great job."
Lene's mouth suddenly flattened and tears started to flow.
It was as if he had been holding back tears for a long time, and finally, he stopped listening to her and all of them came out.
Little Lene still had a stubborn look on her face, but her voice was choked,
"But Dad doesn't believe Lene ."
"Dad said Lene killed his brother."
"Grandpa also said that if he doesn't admit his mistake, he won't let Lene out."
The little guy seemed to finally have someone to vent his grievances to, and he said these words while crying.
After all, he is just a three and a half year old child. No matter how stubborn he is, he will still feel aggrieved.
Elliot suppressed his anger and said, "He doesn't deserve to be your father!"
Matheo stopped him in a deep voice, " Elliot !"
Elliot had no choice but to shut up, but he was filled with anger and dissatisfaction in his heart. Thinking that Peter was still waiting outside, he wanted to dismantle the iron bed and take a steel pipe to beat him up.
Lene said a few words, cried some more, and soon fell asleep.
Outside the door, Elliot couldn't help asking, "Brother, are you going to let the Madsen Family get away with it ?"
How can bankruptcy alone be enough?
Matheo unbuttoned his cuffs slowly, rolled up his sleeves, and said calmly, "Eight to one, is that enough?"
Eight, beat one!
