So at this moment, she could only stand up and take a step forward towards Zara, gently rubbing her head and lowering her voice slightly before speaking.

“Don’t worry, child. If you encounter any problems in the future, you can tell your big sister, and I’ll do my best to help you no matter what.”

She truly meant what she said.

Anyhow, since she said it, she would definitely keep her promise.

She knew that many children might not be able to reveal their scars to others.

For them, it might be a shame in their lives.

Regardless of how they feel, they might not be able to solve the problem on their own. If they really want to make the situation better, they have to speak out and work together to solve it.

However, forcing them to talk about it might seem inappropriate.

So, it’s better for her to wait until the child decides to talk about it voluntarily; this way, it would be more reasonable.

Lucy seemed to understand the situation very well as she looked worried at the moment.

But since Zara, the concerned party, hadn’t spoken out yet, Lucy couldn’t possibly say anything else at this time.

No matter what, she knew she couldn’t say something bad under such circumstances.

Those besties nearby seemed to notice Zara’s current uncomfortable state.

As they had been living here for quite some time now, they had gained an understanding of each other, regardless of their diverse circumstances.

Somehow they knew what was happening in their lives.

Some events might be good, while others might bring great changes to their lives.

As the people involved didn’t say anything, they wouldn’t say anything either at this time.

Seeing Zara’s mood slightly improving, Suri then returned to her seat.

At first, she thought that expressing her thoughts at this time might not be a good idea. However, she later realized that she couldn’t postpone it any longer.

So, with a serious expression, she addressed everyone at this moment.

“Have you thought about where you would go once we solve this problem?”

She straightforwardly asked them this question.

Because she felt that not everyone might have a happy ending upon returning, so she would try her best to help them, to not let them suffer any harm.

Everyone was initially chatting and laughing about other things, but when they heard Suri’s question, their faces became visibly uneasy.

Yes, what should they do and where should they go after solving this problem?

Everyone thought deeply about this issue, unsure of what choice to make.

They knew it was a challenging matter for them as well.

Many times, it wasn’t just about what they wanted. Otherwise, they would have left that miserable place long ago without the need for others to spend so much time and effort.

After a while, everyone sighed heavily. They seemed helpless, and none had a good idea at the moment.

Seeing them like this, Suri gained a rough understanding of their situation.

It seemed that there might be some issues within their families that brought them here.

So she then asked everyone, “I want to ask all of you a question. When you were deceived into coming here and doing such a thing, did it have a lot to do with your family situation?”

“Whether it’s a direct or indirect relationship, I hope everyone can tell me the truth.”

“The reason I’m asking this is that once we rescue you from this quagmire, I don’t want you to fall into another. I want to take good care of all of you.”

She expressed her intention very clearly.

Yigol, who was nearby, looked surprised upon hearing her words.

He never expected his wife to be so considerate.

During this time, he had been busy arranging people to gather crucial evidence. He didn’t know that his wife had already thought about the aftermath for these kids.

At this moment, Yigol couldn’t help but glance at his wife and said softly, “I didn’t expect you to think about so much.”

Upon hearing this, Suri smiled at him.

“Of course. We went through so much to bring them safely out of that place. We can’t put them back into the darkness again.”

“And you’ve been working non-stop on this matter. How could I stand by and watch?”

After hearing that, Yigol felt a bit relieved.

He thought that everything he had done so far was worthwhile.

Moreover, with his wife’s help, they could solve the problem better together.

It was a completely different experience from doing it alone.

Finally, after giving it some thought, one lady managed to break the silence in the room.

“Yes, big sister, you guessed it right. I actually couldn’t leave my family. I have a younger brother and a father. My mother died of complications during my brother’s birth.”

As she spoke, her eyes seemed to be filled with tears.

It was clear that she was truly upset.

Seeing her like this, the besties nearby stepped forward to rub her head gently and patted her shoulder, hoping to give her some encouragement at this moment.

After taking a deep breath, the girl continued, “My family didn’t let me go to school and wanted me to work to earn money for my brother’s education. I found out about this place through some channel, so I came here. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have ended up in such a miserable place.”

After she spoke out, those around her could deeply empathize with her situation.
