Chapter 872
Adina always addressed Mabel as Mrs. Winters. Today, she took the initiative to call her ” Mother”.
Mabel felt as if a huge weight was off her heart.
If Duke and Adina accepted her as their mother, it meant that they had forgiven the past.
“Oh… Addy, don’t you worry. Leave your children with me. I will take care of them,” she said happily
“Mommy, I don’t want to live away from you!” Harold lunged at Adina and wrapped his arms around her neck.
He cried, “Mommy, I want to stay with you. Please, I beg you!”
Melody tugged on Adina’s sleeve and said, “Mommy, I’ve never lived away from you. Please don’t move out… please!”
Even though George and Alden were quiet, it was clear that they shared their sibling’s wish. They looked very reluctant.
Alden, especially, looked hesitant. He and Melody had never been away from their mother. Even when Adina was at her busiest, she had taken them along with her.
The Jones Corporation resort project seemed fine for now. He knew that the situation there wasn’t as grave for her to move out for the sake of work.
He wondered if they had come up with that excuse because his mother and father wanted some private and intimate time together. If that was the case, everything made sense. “Mommy will come home every day to visit you.” Adina stroked her children’s head.
“Let’s go up. Help me pack, okay?”
“No…” Harold pouted.
“I want to stay with you, Mommy. I don’t want to be away from you.”
“Mommy, let me stay with you too!” said Melody.
