Everyone sat quietly while Monk spoke. Oliver sat next to rose on the couch. " We knew enough about Agnes to track her down," Monks continued. We discovered her father and her little sister living in the family home.Agnes disappeared a few months earlier, i searched through records of many towns and work houses until i discovered the death of Agnes. she gave birth to a little boy working in the work house. he had bee given a name 'Oliver Twist'. Agnes was worried that her family would make the same discovery but her father grew sick with worry and fear. He had moved to a sea side town with his young daughter and lived in isolation. He died in a small cottage nearby and left the girl alone with unknown relatives.The young girl was left with a widow, we assumed that she would be sent to an orphanage. the widow however considered her family and her as her niece."
Rose looked towards Mrs. Maylie, the Harry, then Mr. Brownlow.
She was speechless.
" Am i to understand," Mrs. Maylie said,"that Rose was that girl?"
"yes," Monks said..
"I've been watching your family, from a distance, for many years now. Rose is the younger sister of Agnes."
"I can't quite believe this," Rose said. Harry Hugged her. Oliver looked up at her and hugged her tightly and said "That makes you my aunt," and he thought he might never let go.
So this is were we leave are young hero. Fear not though: Oliver Twist lived a warm and happy life from that point on. Harry and Rose were married. Mrs. Maylie and Oliver continued to live with them in the sweet little house with a garden. Mr. Brownlow visited often. At long last Oliver had a family.

Ruchi, have you read the unabridged edition of Oliver Twist? You are so good. I haven't read the unabridged edition. Oh, why did you use a movie cover for the picture of this book, why don't you use the book's cover? I am just wondering! :)
