My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke) novel Chapter 321

Chapter 321

Adina’s cold heart gradually melted. She held Harold’s chubby hand and softly said, “I also like you very much.” Harold’s eyes brightened, as if a galaxy was shining brightly in his eyes. Adina could not bear the sight anymore, or she would not be able to hold herself from crying again. She flipped open the album, gently smiled, and said, “Harold, tell me some interesting things from the time when you and George were even younger.”

Harold leaned on Adina’s knees and supported his chin with his arms. “George is very old fashioned. He acts like an adult. Nothing interesting ever happened to us when we were even younger. Auntie Adina, my brother is boring, but he isn’t a bad person to anyone. Besides, he likes Mel very much. He will never hurt you, since you’re Mel’s mom. Even if he has hurt you, there must be a misunderstanding.” Adin stroked his hair. “I know George is not a bad boy.”

Harold sat up straight and said solemnly, “Auntie Adina, I apologize on behalf of my brother. I hope you won’t hold it against him, and please don’t ignore me because of him, okay?”

He tentatively tugged at Adina’s sleeve. Adina chuckled and said, “Why would I hold a grudge against a four-year-old kid?” George took revenge for Dew because he thought Dew was his biological mother. Meanwhile, Dew only became the boys’ biological mother because Adina, the real mother, had not fulfilled her responsibility.

If she was stronger and wiser on that night from four years ago, she would not have let the boys be separated from her for so long.

“Auntie Adina, why did your eyes turn red again?” Harold felt worried as he asked. Adina shook her head. “I’m okay. Let’s continue looking through the photos.” As she flipped through the photos, she seemed to have experienced the four seasons with the boys and accompanied them to grow up from babies to kids.
