Chapter 739
He whispered to them, “This place is unsafe. I‘ll ask someone to take you back home.”
Melody tugged on his sleeve. “Daddy, you haven‘t answered my question. I won‘t leave until you do.” Harold almost burst into tears again. “Daddy, is it true that you don‘t remember us anymore? You don‘t want to remember us?” He Sobbed. “Daddy, you‘re wicked. Mommy has taken great pains to look for you, but you don‘t remember us anymore… Daddy, if you drive us out, you will regret your decision… You‘ll regret it…”
Terry felt as if his heart was pricked with a knife. He did not want to put the children in danger. Besides, he had to find out what exactly had happened.
If he returned to his family before finding out the truth, things like this might happen again in the future. He might not be able to save them. “Don‘t cry.” He wiped off Harold and Melody‘s tears.” After I finish my business, I‘ll visit you—”
“You lie to us!” Harold sobbed loudly. “You don‘t remember Melody and me, you can‘t possibly come and look for us.”
Melody wailed. “Daddy, I‘m hungry. Can I eat something before I go home?”
Terry whispered to them, “When there are other people around, don‘t address me as your daddy, okay?” He looked solemn. Harold recalled his older brother‘s words. George had mentioned that most of the people around their father were his enemies.
He nodded. “Okay. Melody and I won‘t address you as our daddy.” “Good boy, good girl.” Terry stroked the children‘s heads and instructed the servants to bring them with food.
The children sat at the long table obediently. Various types of dishes and desserts were served.
Louis rushed in. “Boss, Ms. Daugherty is outside now. She requests to see you.” The children were delighted. They then lowered their heads guiltily. They had sneaked out of the house. They had planned to return within an hour but… Adina anxiously waited at the entrance. Louis returned to her and led her into the mansion.
