My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke)
Chapter 429

Chapter 429

Adina pulled out her phone, and after taking a look at the caller ID, she answered the call.

"Good day, Ms. Daugherty. I'm an account representative from Elitos Corporation. I'd like to let you know that your bid document has cleared our company's initial evaluation. Please make plans to attend the meeting at Elitos Corporation at ten o'clock this morning."

Adina glanced at the time and agreed.

The fact that Elitos Corporation had called her at this exact time meant that there must be good news regarding the bid.

She had to win this project. She had to go.

But what about these four kids?

Just as she was thinking of a plan to arrange the four kids, a knock came from downstairs.

Mel, who was sitting quietly on the bed, suddenly jumped out and ran downstairs to open the door.

Adina immediately guessed who the visitor was.

She walked into her room to wash up and dressed in official attire before heading downstairs.

Duke had already taken a seat on the couch. He looked up

to face the woman coming down the stairs and asked with a small smile, "Where did you plan to take the kids today?"

"Mr. Winters, I believe I have a favor to ask of you." Adina cleared her throat and muttered dryly, "I suddenly have some urgent matters to settle at work. Would you kindly help me watch the kids for a little while?"

"Huh? Are you going to work, Mommy?" Harold was instantly bummed. "I want to follow Mommy to work too."

Adina patted his head and said, "I have very important things to take care of, but I'll be home in the afternoon. Stay at home and behave, okay?"

Harold was about to speak again when George interrupted, "Mel was right. You're not a good kid." "That's not true! I'm a good kid!" Harold said as he took a.step back and waved his hands. "Hurry up and head to work, Mommy. I'll make sure to behave!" Adina laughed at his antics.

She patted each child's head one by one before turning to look at Duke and said, "I'll leave it to you, Mr. Winters."

Duke hated the words "Mr. Winters" more than anything, yet there was nothing he could do about it.

He nodded lightly and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of the kids. You can work in peace."

Adina made her way to the door, changed into a pair of heels, and left.

For the first time, Duke felt clueless about what to do as he stared at the four children in the living room.

He had watched George and Harold grow up in front of his eyes, but he had never really taken care of them on his own. All the daily chores and activities had been managed by Mr. Brown. "Daddy, I'm hungry," Melody said in a super soft voice as she grabbed onto Duke's shirt and swayed. Harold rubbed his tummy and said, "Daddy, I'm hungry too. I want to eat veggie noodles."

It was seven in the morning when Duke took a quick check at the time. It was time to prepare breakfast. He had not eaten breakfast as well.

He turned to his two other boys and asked, "What about you two? What do you want to eat?"

"Anything would do," George replied calmly. Alden paused for a second and said, "I want to eat handmade noodles. Does Daddy know how to make it?" It was practically his first time calling Duke "Daddy", and also the first time he had asked for something. Duke would definitely not turn him down. "All right, wait for a while. Breakfast will be ready in a bit."

Harold and Melody continued playing heartlessly.

George glanced at Alden with doubt and asked, "Do you really like having handmade noodles?" "Does it matter?" Alden pursed his lips and said, "I believe Daddy will definitely succeed at making it." Duke entered the kitchen, closed the door, and pulled out his phone.

He opened up the web and searched for "handmade noodle" recipes.
