Out in the sticks, some folks reckoned that adopting a kid can help a woman get pregnant naturally.
Especially those couples who had been married for years but still hadn't had a kid, they'd opt to adopt one from an orphanage.
They believed that kids were God-sent gifts to help them settle down.
Though it was just a superstition, there were actually quite a few success stories out there.
However, life can get real tough for those adopted kids once their foster parents had a child of their own.
They can't return to the orphanage, and their foster parents felt burdened by their presence because they were not blood-related and thus, were not keen on taking care of them.
Herman wasn't the type to gossip about other people's family affairs, nor was he overly sympathetic. But when he heard about Pattie's situation, he was ticked off.
He instinctively wanted to know more about Pattie.
But those old ladies only knew hearsay, they didn't know the specifics.
After all, it was someone else's family business, and Herman didn't want to poke his nose into it.
At the office.
It was already half past four, only half an hour left till the end of the workday.
Anastasia was engrossed in drafting a design, while Everlee was trying to sneak a peek but was blocked by Anastasia.
Anastasia smiled and said, "Ms. Lunsford, no need to rush, time's not up yet."
Everlee scoffed, "Only half an hour left, let's see what you can pull out of your hat."
Half an hour later, Anastasia stopped painting, as if she were taking an exam. When the time was up, she put down her brush and "submitted" her work.
Anastasia stood up and gently blew off the dust on her design draft.
Everlee couldn't wait to look over, only to see Anastasia had drawn a flower.
Upon seeing this, Everlee was instantly irked and said, "Anastasia, are you pulling my leg? What kind of design is this? Is this all the capability Elysian Technologies' designers have?"
Anastasia responded calmly, "Ms. Lunsford, don't rush, do you know what flower this is?"
Everlee glanced at it disdainfully, she had clearly seen it, "Isn't this a gardenia? I asked you to design a necklace, why are you drawing a gardenia for me? If I want any flower, can't I simply buy it? Do I need you to design a fake flower for me?"
