“… I guess so.” Mrs. Winters sighed. “Things were challenging in the European factory, and Winters Co
rporation has lost a lot of money. Your dad had to deal with clients every day. It’d be strange if he doesn
‘t become more bad–tempered.”
“But… Dad shouldn‘t bring his bad temper from work home,” Alden said indifferently.
“I‘m just saying.” Mrs. Winters stroked the children‘s heads.” Once your dad‘s back, he‘ll realize
that George is taller, Alden‘s hair is longer, Harold‘s forehead has two pimples, and Melody is prettier…
”
Half a month was not long, but it was definitely not short either.
Anyone could change.
So, they should not be surprised if their dad was different from before.
They had also changed, right?
Mrs. Winters clenched her fists tightly and kept convincing herself to carry on
At 6:00 pm, dinner was ready in the Winters family‘s mansion.
The four children were playing in the courtyard while waiting for their father to come home.
Even Harold, who was at odds with his father the most, frequently looked out the door this time.
He had parted with his father for half a month. He really missed his dad.
Although his father was very strict, he loved his father very much. Of course, he loved his mom more.
Harold looked out of the door at the mountainous road again
and appeared disappointed . “Is Dad not coming back today?”
Adina smiled and
said, “Your dad‘s busy with work, so it‘s no surprise that he isn‘t coming home today. Let‘s go and
have dinner first. We can continue waiting for him after dinner, okay?
The kids obediently nodded.
After dinner, night came, and the children waited until they felt sleepy.
After the children showered with Adina‘s help, she carried them to bed and told them three
bedtime stories. Then, they slowly fell asleep.
She cast a glance at the time. It was already 11:00 pm.
Duke was still not back.
It looked like he would not return again tonight.
Adina chuckled before she walked into the master bedroom and got ready to wash up and rest.
At this
time, the bright light of a car shone in from the mansion‘s entrance, and a black car was driven into the
courtyard.
Adina stood at the stairs indifferently as she watched the man
walk in slowly wearing a black suit.
They had not met for half a month. It did not seem like he had changed much, but his aura gave her
a strange feeling.
Was this the man she used to love?
She still loved him, but when he actually showed up in front of her, she realized that her heart was not fi
kind of affection.
Adina doubted herself deeply.
Then, their gazes met.
“You‘re still up at this hour. Have you been waiting for me to come home?”
Earl walked in and curled
the corners of his lips. It looked like a happy smile at first, but it was more of a smirk.
Adina recalled the photo from the news. She pursed her pink lips and slowly walked down the stairs.
