    Chapter 216


    Alden slowly sized the Winters family up before he pursed his lips and asked, “Uncle Duke, is Harold’s


    brother at home?” “He’s at the office. He’ll be backter,” Duke said nonchntly.


    Alden nodded. He walked up to a book rack, took a book, and flipped through it.


    Adina, on the other hand, nced at the kitchen. The servants were preparing to cook, so it was


    crowded there. It would be better for her to cook the pastater. She casually sat down on the couch,


    but she realized that Duke was sitting across from her. Two of the kids were upstairs, while Alden was


    reading a book. Only the two of them “had nothing to do” in the living room. Adina felt awkward for


    some reason.. She nced around before she saw the piano at the corner of the living room. She


    finally knew what to do. She smiled faintly and asked, “Mr. Winters, can I y the piano?” Duke nodded


    indifferently. “Yes.” He stared at Adina in surprise. Did this woman also y the piano? Adina walked


    over. She pressed the piano keys, and the familiar sound stunned her. Why did she find this piano


    familiar? She then walked to the back of the piano. When she saw the brand logo carved in gold, she


    instantly understood. It was the piano that Dew had grabbed for triple the price. It had actually been


    delivered to the Winters family vi. Somehow, Adina felt extremely ufortable. She turned around


    and sat back on the couch. She would rather sit there awkwardly than touch that piano.


    “Why didn’t you y?” Duke stared at her and slowly asked. “I suddenly didn’t feel like ying


    anymore.” Adina leaned back on the couch and casually grabbed a magazine. She acted as if she


    refused to talk to him. Duke stroked his nose gloomily. This woman switched so quickly. She still


    appeared gentle, but why did she suddenly be grumpy? While Duke was feeling extremely


    dejected downstairs, Harold was not faring any better upstairs.


    He had taken out all his favorite toys and put them in front of Melody. “Do you like this one? What about


    this one? And this! My dad bought them for me. I like to y with them. Why don’t you like them?”


    When Melody saw that the Transformers model was the same height as her, she fearfully took a step


    back


    Harold quickly pushed the toy onto the table. “Mel, you can tell me what you like. I’ll ask Papa Brown to


    buy them now.” Melody shook her head, and her expression did not change much. “Oh, yeah!


    Harold held her hand and walked out. “George bought a lot of toys that girls like the other day. How


    could I forget? Let’s go. I’ll take you there so that you can have a look!” He then dragged Melody to


    George’s room. His bedroom was decorated in cool tones, and the carpet, wallpaper, as well as


    curtains, were gray. It looked like the room of a grown man.


    Melody did not go inside. She just stood at the door.


    Harold searched everywhere and found a set of pink Barbie toys from the cab.

    He walked up to Melody attentively and handed her the toys as if he was presenting her with treasure.


    “Girls should like these. Take them. We can y together.” However, Melody turned to the side and


    avoided the toys. She had yed with Barbie dolls when she was two, and she did not like them


    anymore. Although she did not ept the toys, Harold had already let go of them. Thud! The set of


    Barbie dolls dropped to the floor, and the Crystal Princess’crown broke in half.
