My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke) novel Chapter 370

Chapter 370

What if they reveal the truth about the children, only for it to not end up being the answer Duke wanted?

The atmosphere in the office was eerily quiet.

Minute by minute, time passed,

Adina was almost ready to head home after picking up the two kids from preschool, but she changed her mind and went to the Winters family’s mansion instead.

No matter how Madam Winters treated her, she was still obligated to keep her promise to Harold.

She was focused on driving at the front, but was momentarily distracted when she heard Alden ask, “What’s wrong, Mel? Are you feeling alright?”

Adina peeked at the rearview mirror and saw Mel, who had always sat quietly, was now squirming in her seat and looking agitated.

“Mel, tell mommy, what’s wrong?”

Adina slowed down the car and asked softly.

Melody shook her head and said in a small voice while hugging a cushion, “I’m not feeling sick.”

There just seemed to be a general sense of unease.

After a pause, she continued softly. “Mommy, where’s daddy?”

Before she went to sleep the night before, her daddy had promised her that he would pick her up from school.

“Your daddy had something to do and went home first. You can see him when we get home later,” Adina said with a gentle smile.

After hearing that, Melody’s expression brightened a little.

Adina smiled in relief.

Recently, Melody seemed less like an autistic child as she grew closer to Duke.
