Chapter 142
Alden clenched his fists.
It was the first time that his mom had spoken to him in a stern tone ever since he could remember.
It was all because of Harold.
Alden pursed his lips, lowered his head, and admitted his mistake. “I’m sorry, Mom. I made a mistake.”
“Alden, go downstairs and tell Mel a story. I’ll help Harold take a shower.”
Adina carried Harold into the bathroom and locked the door behind her.
Alden stared at the door for a while before he turned around and went downstairs.
Ten minutes later, Adina carried Harold downstairs after his shower. “Alden, I let him put on some of your clothes. Do you mind?”
Alden obediently said, “Harold, you look good in that shirt. It’s my apology gift to you.”
Harold turned to the side.
He did not want to wear Alden’s clothes, but if he refused to wear them, he could only be naked or wear Melody’s dress.
Adina patted his head. “Alden already apologized to you. What should you say?”
Harold scoffed.
He would never say, “It’s okay”!
Two minutes later, as Adina stared at him with a stern gaze, he unwillingly said, “It’s okay, but you can’t treat me like that again!”
Alden nodded. “I know that you don’t know how to turn on the hot water now. I’ll help you next time.”
Harold was at a loss for words.
He was not talking about that!
