My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke) novel Chapter 424

Chapter 424

Before his anger could even grow, it all disappeared when he heard Melody call him “Daddy”.

He picked up the little girl who ran toward him, and after spinning her around, he asked softly, “Did you miss Daddy?”

“Yes!”

The little girl nodded vigorously. On the other side, Harold was still looking for a place to hide in the car.

George pursed his lips and said, “You had the nerve to run away from home, but you’re not brave enough to face the consequences?”

Harold buried his head under the cushion and said with a muffled voice, “Hmph. I am a scaredy-cat. What’re you

going to do about it? Fight me?”

Adina was not sure whether to cry or laugh as she looked at them. “You think your Daddy can’t find you if you hide under the cushion? Come out, darling.”

“No! I don’t want to come out!” Harold hugged the cushion and said stubbornly, “I want to stay here today. I want to spend the night at your house!”

“Stay here, then. I’ll go back with Daddy,” George said after pursing his lips for a moment.

He sat up and was ready to get out of the car.

Harold finally moved and tugged at George’s sleeve.“ George, you-”

At last, George felt some relief. This kid still had some degree of conscience and was reluctant to send his big brother out to face their father’s wrath alone.

“I know you’re the best, George. Just say that you dragged me to Mommy’s house today. Daddy likes you the most, and he definitely won’t punish you. Just don’t tell on me, okay?”

George was rendered speechless.

He had truly overestimated Harold’s sense of morality.

“Okay, Hal,” Adina said weakly while holding her forehead. “I swear, I’ll convince your daddy to let you two spend the night at my house, okay?”
