Chapter 421
“I can’t be any happier. Come in now!”
Adina helped the boys to carry their suitcases into the house. Her eyes were beaming with delight.
Whether Duke knew about it or not, these boys were not going anywhere today. She finally had a
chance to spend some alone time with her four children.
Harold had been here once before, but he had not had the chance toe in. So this was his first visit
as well. He looked around curiously and touched things with interest. He asked a few questions here
and there. The living room was full of joy. George looked around with a solemn gaze. This vi was
much smaller than the Winters family’s ce. Because it was so small, the living room seemed a bit
crowded. The balcony was full of toys.
The color of the couch in the living room was pink. The curtains were of a simrly warm color. The
decorative items were small furry objects that enticed people to touch them.
This home was so much cozier than the Winters family’s ce.
No wonder Harold had insisted on staying here.
At that moment, Alden came down from upstairs with Melody. Harold darted toward them excitedly.
“Mel, you haven’tbed your hair. Let meb it for you today, okay?”
Melody’s eyes bulged. She covered her hair with her hands and took a step back.
“I promise to be gentle. I won’t hurt you. I am going to make you the most beautiful braid in the world.”
Melody cocked her head and pondered for a few moments before nodding and following Harold to the
couch.
Harold did not know how tob hair at all. He was clumsy with theb. He had pulled out two
strands of the little girl’s hair.
Alden felt bad for her as he red at him in anger. “If you don’t know how tob hair, don’t pretend
like you are good at it.”
Harold was aggrieved. “I watched a hair-braiding videost night. I know how tob hair. I really do.”
Alden took theb and smoothed his sister’s hair, then carefully braided it.
He was good with his hands. A few momentster, he finished braiding one side of her hair, he skillfully
picked up the rubber band and tied it tightly. Then, he changed
direction and tied the other side.
“Wow. You are so good at it!”
Harold could not help but p his hands. His eyes were filled with envy.
George stood by the side. His fingers were secretly imitating Alden’s movements,
Adina smiled tenderly as she saw her four children getting along well. She put on her apron and went
to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. Melody did not need to practice piano on weekends. She happily
took out all her toys and sat on the crawling mat with Harold to y with them. Harold was actually not
interested in girls’ toys, but he would do anything to hang out with Melody for a little longer. He even put
on a wig and let Melody put makeup on his face. His fingernails were also painted with various colors of
nail polish.
Melody was having a lot of fun.
George, however, could not stand to look at it anymore. The makeup on his stupid brother’s face at that
moment was just too horrifying to look at.

When he turned his head, he saw Alden sitting on the balcony, clutching a notebook.
Alden’s figure was obscured by the balcony curtain. If he
looked from a different angle, Alden would have never been spotted hiding there, ying with his
laptop.
George narrowed his eyes and approached him.
Alden’s fingers moved quickly across the keyboard. String after string of code symbols appeared on the
screen, with themunication software’smunication interface on the right.
“You’re forming a hacker team?”
A voice suddenly came from behind him. Alden quickly raised his hand and closed theptop.
