My Mommy's Brave Heart novel Chapter 385

Adina recalled that night four years ago.

George and Harold had exited her belly one after another, and the boys were only as big as a palm when they were born.

Other babies had chubby faces when they were born, but the boys’ faces were the opposite. Their cheeks were deeply sunken, and they were as skinny as monkeys.

When she looked back on it now, she realized that the boys’ skinny features at that time actually resembled Duke’s.

She slowly caressed George’s cheek. It was her first time being so close to George. This was her eldest son.

She then moved her hand toward George’s brows. There were some wrinkles due to his frown.

This boy had grown up too early. He bore many things that he should not have.

“No! No…” the sleeping George suddenly muttered.

Adina held his hand and softly said, “George, don’t be afraid. Mommy’s here. I won’t let anyone hurt you.”

She bent down and kissed George’s forehead.

George was comforted, so he fell asleep again.

Only then did Adina leave the room and go downstairs quietly.

“Harold, it’s late, so we’ll go back first. I’ll come over tomorrow, okay?”

Harold felt anxious the whole night. The more anxious he felt, the more he dared not act presumptuously and lose his temper.

He sent Adina and the children out before he waved obediently. “See you tomorrow, Mommy.”

Adina gave him a gentle smile before she got into the car. Then, she drove it steadily on the road.
