Chapter 619
Alden stood up, his gaze dark.
He looked at George, who was similarly tall, and he slowly said,” I want to increase my assets. I want to have the ability to protect Mom.”
George pursed his lips. “You still don‘t trust Dad, right?”
“Has he given me any reason to?” Alden asked George back.” People always say kids always change their thoughts very easily, like the weather in June, but Duke Winters changes even faster than kids. I can‘t be sure if he will love Mom for the rest of his life, so I have to gather my strength. When Mom is completely disappointed in him, I‘ll take her and Mel away.”
“So…” George‘s voice was hoarse. “You never thought about Harold and me?”
“Your family name is Winters, while Mel and I are Daugherties. We are not the same.”
Alden turned around and sat on the bed. He looked down and looked very off–putting.
When George saw Alden looking like this, he did not know what he should say.
When Dad and Mom had some problems, the first thing he thought about was to explain and find various excuses for Dad.
He always thought he loved Mom very much.
But when something went wrong with the family, he found himself very despicable.
As long as he could maintain the happiness of their family of six on the surface, he could actually put Mom‘s feelings aside.
He was the eldest brother, but he was not as good as Alden.
“Alden, leave this matter to me.” George looked at him and said, “I’m the eldest brother. I‘ll protect each of you. Please believe me.”
Alden pursed his lips and said, “I hope so.”
Duke did not come back that night.
