My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke)
Chapter 403

Chapter 403

Mrs. Winters turned around and motioned to Mr. Brown.

Mr. Brown took the hint. He walked into the study before he picked up two boxes and handed them over to them.

"Alden, Mel, I prepared a gift for you. Open it and see if you like it." Alden looked back at Adina. He only accepted the two boxes after he saw his mother nod. He then gave the pink box to his sister. The box he held was the color of sandalwood. He lowered his head and opened the box, finding a set of stationery inside. The fountain pen appeared to be of high quality at first glance. Aside from that, there was also an envelope. Alden took out the envelope, pursed his lips, and said, "Thank you, Grandma. I'll accept the stationery, but I can't take the money."

He took the envelope out and put it on the table. Mrs. Winters felt pleased as she nodded. She looked at Adina and said, "Ms. Daugherty, you've raised Alden well."

He did not grow up in the Winters family, but his behavior was elegant and noble like that of a Winters family member. Melody learned from Alden. She also took out the envelope from the box and put it on the table. However, there was a pink diamond in her pink box, and it glowed under the light. Adina could tell from a glance that the diamond cost at least several million dollars. Based on that, she could assume that Alden's stationery also cost about $1,000,000.

The two envelopes might not contain cash. They possibly contained a check or a bank card. Mrs. Winters must have put in some effort to prepare these gifts. Did it mean Mrs. Winters also cared about Alden and Melody? Adina curled the corners of her lips. She smiled faintly and said, "Mrs. Winters, the kids will accept the gifts. Please take the envelopes back." Mrs. Winters took two steps forward and touched Alden's head. When she tried to touch Melody's hair, the girl hid behind Adina and blinked warily.

Mrs. Winters retracted her hands in disappointment. "When George and Harold were first born, they each had an envelope too. This is something that every child in the Winters family has, so Alden and Mel naturally will have it. You're their mother, so you can accept it on their behalf," she said indifferently. Mrs. Winters directly stuffed the envelopes into Adina's pocket. Adina had always been afraid of such things. She would pay the bill before others and refuse to receive money. She helplessly kept the envelopes as she pursed her lips and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Winters." Mrs. Winters nodded before she looked at George and Harold. "The two of you are the older

ones. Bring your brother and sister out to play. We adults have something to discuss."

Harold could not wait to go out and play. He promptly pulled Melody and ran out. The sharp Alden was aware of what the adults wanted to talk about, so he staggered slightly. George walked up to him and stoically said, "I'd like to ask you something. Let's go." After the four children left the dining room, Mr. Brown left with the other servants as well. The three adults were the only ones left in the spacious dining Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
