Chapter 12 31 % Grace sensed Laura's resistance and earnestly lied , " Laura is currently undergoing a DNA test with her grandparents . It's very likely that her grandma and grandpa will come to pick her up . So please turn off your livestream quickly . If you have any questions , we can discuss them outside , away from the child . " The live streamers smirked , their expressions mocking . A man stepped forward and forcefully pushed Grace aside ! Caught off guard , she fell out of the camera's frame . Laura was immediately surrounded , her escape blocked . She recoiled in fear . " Don't come near me ! " But the male live streamer smirked as he appraised her , making her uncomfortable . " Lala , you're truly beautiful . Are you still an orphan ? Will your family come to get you at all ? " Another female live streamer got close to Laura , holding up her phone . " Lala , in our family , you'll have an older brother and an older sister . If you come to us , you'll be the youngest child in our family . I will definitely dote on you ! Do you know that a famous director has taken an interest in you ? You could become a big star in the future ! I will take care of you and be by your side as you grow into a child star . Wouldn't that be wonderful ? " A man pushed the woman aside , looking disdainful . " You're shameless for saying that . Are you even genuinely interested in adopting Laura ? Or are you just after her potential earnings ? You're turning her into a child star and your personal cash cow , right ? " He aimed his phone at Laura , speaking firmly . " Laura , let me tell you , if you choose me , I will wholeheartedly cherish you as my own daughter . I've learned a lot about this and know that only those who can't conceive can adopt . You'll soon become my daughter ! " But for all their words , they didn't really see her . They were only looking into their phones , and their gazes didn't even fall on her real face . Other live streamers got unhappy and retorted at the man , " Hey , what you mean by ' your daughter ' ? We're here too ! You can't make us leave empty - handed , right ? We want to adopt her as well ! " " Don't bother fighting with me for her . My family's situation is the best . I can afford to take care of her . She's going to become an artist in the future ! I can provide piano and dance lessons for her . Can any of you do that ? " They argued more and more loudly , and even resorted to physical violence ! Laura watched in shock , her understanding growing clearer . These people weren't here to genuinely adopt her . They didn't truly want to be her mom and dad ! " I don't want this ! " she thought . Grace was trapped outside and couldn't get in . " Stop it ! Don't make a scene . Adoption of a child has strict regulations , and she's not something you can just take away like this. Please leave now ! You're scaring the child ! " The adults ignored her , continuously thrusting their phones toward Laura . " Laura , listen to me ! Choose me ! In my house , though there's an older boy , but don't worry . I've always wanted a second child . As long as you come to my house , I'll teach you everything . Piano , dance … I can give you lessons for everything a girl can learn . You could become a big star and make a lot of money ! " 1/2 Chapter 12- The female live streamer pushed him aside . " You're utterly shameless ! Look at me , Lala . I'm so beautiful . My family is wealthy , and I have a house and cars . Even when you're working , I will personally be with you . Choose me ! I genuinely care for you ! " " No , no , no ! Choose mel Choose me ! " Laura was trapped in the middle , her face pale . She looked at these sinister faces , her eyes wide with fear . In a faint voice , she asked , " Are you adopting me for money ? " 2/2
