“Mel, if there’s something making you unhappy, you can tell me about it.”
Duke carried her and sat on the couch. His gaze and voice were extremely gentle.
Melody pursed her pink lips and pulled his big, rough palm over. Just as she was about to write on it, Adina walked out of the kitchen.
She was holding a plate of food in each hand, and she grinned as she said, “Dinner’s ready. Come over and eat.”
Harold immediately turned around and rushed over. “Aunt Adina, I miss you so much!”
Adina quickly put down the plates before she bent down and carried Harold. She smiled gently and said, “We just met yesterday. Why would you miss me already?”
“My teacher taught me ‘absence makes the heart grow fonder.’ I didn’t see you for one day, so your absence strengthened my love for you. I want to be with you all the time!” Harold put his arms around Adina’s neck and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
Adina’s heart melted. She lowered her head and also kissed Harold on the cheek.
Harold was on cloud nine.
As long as Aunt Adina still liked him, it would be totally fine if Mr. Brown and his dad did not like him anymore.
He held Adina’s neck with his arms and kissed her again.
Adina smiled and chuckled, while Alden pursed his lips.
He wondered if his mom knew that Harold was Dew’s son, would she still be so intimate with Harold?
But before that, he needed to confirm if Duke was his and Melody’s biological father.
Alden lowered his head and hid the short strand of black hair in his pocket.
“Let’s eat. I cooked several dishes including soup today. I prepared these chicken wings with Coca-Cola sauce specially for Harold.” Adina picked up a chicken wing and put it on Harold’s plate. This boy was a really fussy eater, and his favorite food was chicken wings. She made a lot today, so it should be enough for him.
