Chapter 735
“I‘m afraid it won‘t be that easy.” Alden smiled bitterly.“ Daddy is the leader of the Black Party. He can‘t simply leave his position. He will either die in the middle of the power struggle, or he must whitewash Hestia Border and pass it down to his successor.”
The study room fell silent. Meanwhile, Harold and Melody played in the courtyard of the mansion. They were also feeling very down.
Melody held a small shovel. Her long and curly eyelashes were wet with tears.
“Melody, why are you crying?” Harold put down his toys and looked at his sister, wondering if he could somehow cheer her up.
Melody said in a muffled voice, “Harold, I miss Daddy. I miss him so much…”
“I miss him too…” Harold sobbed. “But Mommy said Daddy forgot about us. Even if we see him, he won‘t remember us…”
Melody cried even harder. Tears streamed down her cheeks.
“I‘ll ask Mommy to bring us to Daddy. Don‘t cry…”. Harold wiped off Melody‘s tears, then he looked for his Mommy.
Adina was in the living hall. She was working. She looked very solemn.
Harold pursed his lips and returned to the courtyard quietly “Melody, Mommy is busy. I‘ll talk to her later when she‘s free.”
Melody looked down and wept silently. Her tears dropped onto the ground. Harold‘s heart bled for her when he saw her weeping quietly.
He gritted his teeth. “Melody, don‘t cry. I‘ll take you to Daddy.”
“George and AI visited him and came back in one piece, didn‘t they?” Harold raised his chin. “I‘m older than AI, I’ll be able to protect you. Melody, are you coming with me?”
Melody blinked but she looked interested.
Harold whispered to her, “We‘ll ask Uncle Flint‘s driver to send us over, and we‘ll come back immediately after taking a look at Daddy. Mommy won‘t find out about this.”
