Chapter 635
The family sat at the dining table for breakfast.
As they were about to finish breakfast, Adina said, “I received a call from the foreign educational institute yesterday. It was Alden and Melody‘s teacher.”
Mabel put down her cutlery. “Is there an important reason for the call?”
Adina nodded. “Mel wasn‘t in good health in the past, and she received treatment in that educational institute. I also helped Alden enroll in an early educational class there. A few months ago, I came back in a hurry, so I didn‘t manage to complete some of the procedures. They called me over to finish the final procedures. I‘d like to bring Alden and Melody along too.”
Mabel frowned. “Just let Mr. Brown go.”
“Mr. Brown can help me do it, but the teachers in the institute miss Mel and Alden.” Adina smiled and said, “When I was alone with the kids, I had to work all the time. The teachers of the institute took good care of them so they could grow up well. I was thinking that I should take them to visit the teachers as a show of gratitude. What do you think, Duke?”
She looked at the man beside her, seemingly asking for his opinion.
Earl pursed his lips. He did not care about where the kids went.
If the children stayed in the Winters family, he would be more
distracted, as he had to deal with them.
“You‘re their mother. I have no problem with wherever you want to take them,” he said indifferently.
“But…” Mabel disagreed. “Alden and Mel are still so young. It‘s too tiring for them to go abroad. It‘s also easy for them to fall sick when entering a new environment.”
“Grandma, Mel and I have lived abroad for many years. We want to go back and take a look,” Alden said obediently. “Mel and I planted a tree at the back of the house. I‘d like to know if the tree is still alive too.”
Melody blinked and said, “I also carved a bunny on the tree.”
“Wow! Really?” Harold curiously said. “I want to go and see the bunny that Mel carved.”
Was he that stupid? Had he let his dad down?
