My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke)
Chapter 448

Chapter 448

Adina composed herself, appearing calm and aloof as she went downstairs.

Nobody was in the living room, but some laughter came from the dining room not far away. She slowly walked over. When she stood at the dining room entrance, she saw an extremely warm and harmonious scene.

Melody was in Duke's arms, eating something with a pout. Harold and George were standing on either side of her and feeding her food continuously, while Duke was struggling to braid her hair.

He was an adult man, and his actions were clumsy. The braid he made was not the best.

Before Adina could comment on it, Alden could no longer bear the sight. He frowned and said, "Mel looks ugly with that hairstyle."

As soon as he said that, the corners of the little girl's lips instantly curved down. She pouted unhappily.

Duke cleared his throat and said, "Alden, I'm still learning. It's normal for me to not braid nicely. Can you stand over on this side and teach me?"

Alden carefully said, "Comb the hair out before you divide

the hair into three equal parts. Then, you slowly braid them."

Alden taught Duke in detail, and Duke learned in a serious manner.

Adina's face was filled with tenderness.

Alden used to say that he did not need a father, but he must be very fond of Duke.

She had never seen that expression on Alden's face before.

She walked into the dining room with a faint smile and said, "Let me comb Mel's hair."

Duke looked at her.

He had purposely chosen her outfit for her. It was a goose yellow top with a beige wrap skirt, which accentuated her figure.

He suddenly remembered what she had worn last night. Adina was the most attractive when she was wearing his shirt.

"Mommy, you're awake!" Harold rushed over happily and climbed onto Adina's body using his little limbs.

He unintentionally put his hands on Adina's chest, and his head rubbed against her chest too.

As a result, Duke got angry all of a sudden.

He walked over, grabbed Harold by the collar, and threw him on the floor. "How old are you? Why do you always need to be hugged?" he said coldly. Harold felt hurt. "Isn't Mel four years old too? Why can she be hugged?"

"Mel's a girl, and you're a boy. Are you two the same?" George glanced at him indifferently.

Adina was speechless.

She had found Duke to be quite gentle toward Harold yesterday, but he had revealed his true self again today.

She walked over, carried Harold, and put him on her lap. She smiled and said, "Hal, have you had your breakfast?"

"I've eaten!" Harold held Adina's neck and happily said," Mommy, there's all kinds of breakfast food in the kitchen. What would you like to eat? I'll go and get it for

you."

Right after he spoke, Alden returned from the kitchen. He placed a plate on the table and indifferently said," Mommy, it's your favorite toast."

Harold stuck his tongue out. Alden had made his move so quickly that it made Harold look like he was just all talk and no action.

Even so, Adina was elated.

Her life had never been so complete. All her four children

were alive, and they were by her side. Could anything else bring her more joy?

She looked at Duke. He had just finished combing Melody's hair. He quietly stared at her with his intense black eyes, and her figure was reflected in his pupils. Her heart suddenly pounded fast.

She looked away awkwardly. Casting a glance at the time, she said, "I have to attend a celebration party tonight. Mr. Winters, can you help look after the kids?"

Duke nodded indifferently. "You don't have to worry about leaving the kids with the Winters family. After lunch, I'll send you to get your styling and fitting done. You should be able to make it." Adina thanked him softly.
