Chapter 263


    Chapter 263 “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 te 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 tes 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 ck hair in his pocket. “Let‘s eat. I cooked several


    dishes including soup today. I prepared these chicken wings with Coca–C sauce specially for


    Harold.” Adina picked up a chicken wing and put it on Harold‘s te. 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. “Thank


    you, Aunt Adina!”


    Harold grinned and thanked Adina.


    He took a bite of the chicken wing before he narrowed his eyes in satisfaction. Then, he

    suddenly put it down, turned back, and ran upstairs.


    Duke frowned and asked, “Where are you going?” “I‘m going to call George!”


    Harold quickly ran into the study.


    Mr. Brown pped his thigh. “Yes, how could I forget Young Master George? There are guests today,


    so I should‘ve called him in advance and asked him toe back earlier.”


    Harold got upstairs, tapped open his phone, and gave George a call. “George, why aren‘t you back


    vet? Didn‘t I tell you that Mel woulde to our house for dinner today? She‘ll be gone if you don‘t


    make your way back now!” George was in a piano shop. He sat on a leather couch as he indifferently


    said, “I still have something to do.”


    “George, I know you don‘t like Aunt Adina, but you can‘t hate Mel just because you‘re prejudiced


    against Aunt Adina. Mel‘s not in a good mood today. She doesn‘t want to talk to me. If youe back,


    I‘m sure she‘ll be really happy.” George pursed his lips. “Why would she be happy when I get back?”.


    “Because you look like Mel‘s brother! Mel likes Alden the most, and you look like him. She‘ll like you


    too!” George was at a loss for words. Was he a substitute?


    “I‘ll go back in half an hour,” he said indifferently. “Okay, I think we still won‘t be done with dinner at that


    time. Hurry home, George!”
