    Chapter 494


    “Keep us away? Why would he want to keep us away?” Harold scratched his little head with a puzzled


    face.


    George silently watched him like this with a look on his face that said, “You didn’t believe me when I


    called you dumb, do you believe me now?”


    Harold said nothing.


    The car soon stopped at the entrance of the Winters family mansion.


    Alden was the first to push the door open and disembark. He looked around the living room of the


    mansion, his eyebrows furrowing. “Where’s Melody, why isn’t she back yet?”


    Mr. Brown said with a smile, “Mrs. Winters took Miss Melody to the zoo, it could be a while more before


    they return…”


    As soon as he spoke, a car arrived outside the mansion.


    With Melody in her arms, Mrs. Winters exited the car.


    Harold rushed to greet them. “Mel, I’ve missed you! Take me with you wherever you go next time. I


    never want to take an IQ. test again!”


    To him, taking an IQ.test was downright insulting!


    He hugged his cute sister and finally felt better.


    Alden’s eyes narrowed. There did not seem to be anything wrong with his sister. Did something happen


    to his mom instead?


    Why was the bad feeling in his chest getting worse?


    He looked toward Mr. Brown and asked, “Papa Brown, what exactly did Daddy and Mommy do?”


    Mr. Brown replied with a mysterious air, “It’s not something that you kids should be concerned about.


    Wait till your Daddy brings Mommy home, then you’ll find out.”


    “Grandma, did Daddy go on a date with Mommy?” Harold asked teasingly while clutching Mrs. Winters’


    arm.


    Mrs. Winters’ face turned pale, but she steadied herself and kept herposure as she said, “I believe


    so… you must all be hungry. Mr. Brown, please have the kitchen prepare dinner at once.”


    Mr. Brown hastened to do her bidding.


    Alden stared at Mrs. Winters, still feeling as though something was not right.


    If Daddy and Mommy really went on a date, why would Grandma have such a nervous expression?


    Even George was starting to notice that something was amiss. He pouted and asked, “Why don’t we


    give Mommy a call?”


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    “Good idea!” Harold raised his hand in agreement. “I want to know what Daddy and Mommy are doing


    on their date, why didn’t they bring us with them?”


    Mrs. Winters’ breathing suddenly became more erratic. “Do not call them!”


    “Why not?” Alden and George asked simultaneously.


    Mrs. Winters sped her hands together. “Today is a really


    important day for your Mommy and Daddy, so you shouldn’t bother them. Alright, go wash your hands


    and get ready for dinner.”


    With that, she took Harold in her left hand and Melody in her right and headed for the bathroom.


    Alden took out his cell phone and dialed Adina’s number.


    “Sorry, but the number you have dialed is unavable.”


    George pursed his lips. “I’ll give Daddy a call.”


    He made the call, and the same mechanical woman’s voice answered, “Sorry, the number you have


    dialed is busy…”


    “Do you have aputer?” Alden asked coldly, “I want to figure out where Mommy is.”


    George brought Alden upstairs to the study.


    Alden booted up theputer, his fingers flew across the keyboard, and his brows became furrowed.


    “Mommy’s position got blocked.”


    George pouted again. “What about Daddy’s position?”


    Alden’s fingers continued flying across the keyboard. Three minutester, a red dot appeared on the


    monitor, and the red dot was moving quickly towards the coastal suburbs.
