Now, Adina was his mom. If his mom was willing to call Mdm. Daugherty “Grandma,” then he would
also be willing to show the same respect.
“Oh, good boy.” Mdm. Daugherty sighed and said, “Addy, take the kids inside and have a seat.”
“No, Grandma,” Adina said, “I came over today because I wanted to tell you that I’m getting engaged.
The party will be on the sixth of next month. I’ll deliver the invitation card to you in a few days.”
Mdm. Daugherty was stunned. “Engaged? To whom?”
“With our dad!” Harold raised his chin and pridefully said, “Mommy’s getting married to Dad!”
Mdm. Daugherty chuckled in resignation again.
Dew used to put in so much effort, yet she never managed to marry into the Winters family.
However, when Addy came back, the Winters family treated her generously.
Something stolen would not last long indeed.
“Addy, you’ve suffered a lot, and the good times have just begun. There will be better things to come
for you. You’ll be very happy,” Mdm. Daugherty muttered. “Dew… She’s still in prison. Your dad’s been
working down to the bone, trying to come up with a solution for her, but I don’t know if Dew-”
“Grandma, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first.”
Adina interrupted Mdm. Daugherty and smiled with an indifferent gaze before she brought the children
into the car.
She would be happy, but that did not mean she could forget the pain she had suffered over the past
five years.
If she had been the only one who suffered, fine. Perhaps she could try to forgive Dew. But the four kids
had also suffered at the same time.
She did not have the right to forgive that vicious b*tch, Dew, for her kids.
As soon as Adina entered the car, she noticed that the children were staring at her with their black eyes
in unison.
She chuckled and said, “Okay, now we’re going to meet Great-grandma and tell her the good news of
my engagement!”
Melody smiled. “Oh, yeah! I like Great-grandma!”
Harold and George had met the Xavier family before, but they did not have a chance to get along with
them. The two of them straightened their backs and secretly tidied
their collars. Since they were people whom their mom and Melody cared about, then they would have
to appear in front of those people with the most perfect images.
The car soon stopped in front of the Xavier family’s mansion.
Mdm. Daugherty was alone in the Daugherty family’s mansion , but it was extraordinarily lively in the
Xavier family’s place today. About five cars were parked in the courtyard . Sounds of conversation
could be heard even before they entered the mansion.
After Adina brought the four children out of the car, she smiled gently and said, “Once you go inside,
you have to greet them, understand?”
Harold nodded hard. “Okay, Mommy. I’ll greet them nicely because I’m the most polite baby in the
world!”
Alden glanced at him coldly. “Are you still a baby?”
“Hmph! I’m just four years old. Why can’t I be a baby? What do you think, George?”.
George pursed his lips and looked at Melody. “Mel, do you think you’re a baby?”.
Melody shook her head. “I’m a grown-up. I’m a big girl now, not a baby.”
Harold was speechless.
Melody was younger than him, yet she was not a baby. Could he still shamelessly be a baby then?
Adina chuckled because of her kids. “All of you are my babies. No matter how old you are, you’re
always my babies.”
The group of five walked toward the mansion and pressed the doorbell. Then, a servant came over and
opened the door. As soon as she saw Adina, she smiled. “Ms. Daugherty, the madam was just talking
about you yesterday. Please come in. Master Alden, Miss Melody, and who are these two?”
Harold blinked and introduced himself. “I’m Harold Winters.”
Following that, George obediently said, “I’m George Winters.”
