When Adina saw his back rapidly disappearing, she slowly pursed her lips.
Unsure if it was her imagination, she always felt that this man‘s emotions would go out of control
whenever she mentioned Earley Wynters.
Earley Wynters, Duke Winters…
Duke Winters, Earley Wynters.She repeatedly mumbled these two names.
“Mommy, why did Daddy leave?”
Melody ran over, sounding like she was close to tears.
Adina kept away her thoughts before she bowed down and lifted Melody up. “Daddy needs to work. I‘ll
play with you.”
“No…” The little girl cried willfully. “I just want Daddy! If Daddy is not around, I don‘t want to play either.
Waa…”
Adina sighed.
What a spoiled girl.
Before they got married, Duke did anything that Melody asked for. Even if she asked the moon, he
could also take it down and give it to her.
But after they got married, Duke suddenly did not come home for a month, and when he did come
home, he did not pamper
Melody in the way he used to.
No one could bear such a level of discrepancy in treatments.
If Adina and Duke divorced, Melody would not be able to accept it, no matter what.
“Mommy, should we go home?” Harold could not bear to see his sister crying. He said affectionately,
“We can come and play in the park when Daddy is free again.”
George also nodded and said, “Mel is also tired. We should go back and rest.”
Adina nodded, and she was ready to take the four kids home.
It was only when they went outside the park that she realized she had not driven here today. It was
Duke who drove them to the park.
That man had left. He drove the car and neglected the five of them here.
Adina raised her hand and stopped a car. Twenty minutes later, the car arrived at the Winter family‘s
mansion.
“Hmm, why are you the only ones back? Earl… Where‘s Duke? Why isn‘t he with you?” Mabel asked in
surprise.
Adina carried Melody who was asleep out of the car. She smiled and said, “He has some work to do, so
he left early.”
Mabel forced a smile. “So, how was your trip today?”
“We met Miss Catherine at the park today.” Adina handed Melody over to Mr. Brown, and she said in a
seemingly casual
fashion. “Duke talked to Catherine for a long time. They looked pretty close.”
Mabel‘s gaze wavered. “Haha. I lived in Ascrialia for four years, and it was Catherine who took care of
me there, so Duke has been feeling very indebted to her.”
Adina held a glass of water, and she drank while she asked,” May I ask if Duke has any other siblings?”
“No… no.” Mabel pulled herself together, and she weighed every word carefully before saying, “Addy,
why do you suddenly ask about this?”
“I just suddenly found it strange.” Adina smiled and said, “There are no records of any multiple births in
the Daugherty family, and the Winters family doesn‘t seem to have it too, but I gave birth to
quadruplets. Don‘t you find it strange, Mom?”
“It should be a genetic outlier, I guess.” Mabel awkwardly said,” You never know with this kind of
medical stuff…”
Adina nodded. “I was just curious. Mom, why are you getting nervous?”
“Am … am I?” Mabel‘s back was drenched in sweat. “I just feel slightly warm. I‘ll go out and get some
fresh air.”
Adina stared at Mabel‘s back, and her gaze deepened.
Adina looked at Alden who stood not far away, and she indifferently said, “Alden, come with me.”
Alden obediently followed her.
He had been following Mom from afar today. He should have picked up on the interactions between
Mom and Dad.
