Chapter 911 Home Was Where You Are
The slightly yellow walls were filled with fine cracks, and you never knew when
they would peel off. The room, just a few square meters in size, was crammed

with two beds made of wooden planks, along with a small table and two worn-out
stools.
Charlotte originally thought that Ben and Anna would be disappointed when they
saw the real state of the interior. Yet, to her surprise, Ben and Anna happily
jumped on it at first sight.
“Wow! A bed made of wood! That’s amazing!” Anna patted the stiff board with
eyes full of surprise.
Charlotte didn’t know how to react.
It was the first time she felt an insurmountable gap between herself and the
children.
Seeing her shock, Joe chuckled and hugged her shoulder, “For them, this is

They can go to an amusement park anytime, but a thatched cottage like this…
Chances are Ben and Anna will only stay here once in their lives.
Not only did Ben and Anna happily sit on the bed, but they also waved to
Charlotte and Joe, signaling for them to join them.
Charlotte and Joe looked at each other helplessly and took their seats beside
them.
The four of them sat face-to-face on the wooden bed, exchanging goofy smiles.
Charlotte suddenly understood a phrase she had once read: Home is where you
are.
Even without a luxurious villa, as long as the four of them were sitting together
happily, even this humble thatched cottage felt like home.
After simply packing up, Charlotte led Ben and Anna, who were obviously much
more excited than before, to the open space in front of the thatched cottage.
They were the first family to finish tidying up, and Jerome rewarded each of them
with an apple and asked them to wait there for a moment.
Charlotte and Joe took a bite of the apple and found it to be extraordinarily
sweet, unlike any they had eaten before.
“Do you like this apple that much?”
While Charlotte was eating, a deep male voice sounded. She turned around and
found that the speaker was the college professor.
“Professor Campion,” Charlotte restrained her smile and looked at Professor
Campion with a faint smile.
Leading a little boy, Professor Campion came over, “This is my son, Dennis. He’s
usually a bit introverted. Would it be possible for him to play with Ben and Anna?”
Professor Campion’s face was full of helplessness. If it weren’t for this show, he
might never have found that his son was so reserved outside. He didn’t even
want to try anything. He just wanted to hide in his safe and comfortable zone.
Charlotte looked at the child hiding quietly behind Professor Campion and
smiled, “Of course! The more the kids play, the more familiar they become.”
Seeing Charlotte agree, Professor Campion sighed in relief.
He had always been worried that Charlotte would be dismissive of other children,

However, he found that Charlotte was also warmly and kindly treating other
children, with not the slightest impatience.
Professor Campion looked at Charlotte thoughtfully, even forgetting his manners
for a moment.
Just then, he felt a weight on his shoulder and turned to see Joe with a poker
face.
“Mr. Smith?”
Professor Campion looked at Joe in surprise, not expecting him to initiate a
greeting.
Joe just glanced at him indifferently and said nothing before walking away.
Professor Campion was puzzled when Neil walked over. Seeing Professor
Campion’s expression, he knew what he was thinking and chuckled, “I heard that
Mr. Smith is deeply in love with Miss Clinton.”
Professor Campion finally understood and couldn’t help but laughn
