The children spoke in unison, keeping the joy and excitement from their voices. Adeena stood at the
door to the living room, staring at the four children in front of her in astonishment. Why did she feel as
though she had experienced this before...
In her daze, she saw herself getting uut of a car, and four children threw themselves into her arms,
sweetly calling her their mother. Perhaps it happened in the past, or perhaps it was just a dream.
“Don‘t scare off Aunt Deena.”
Duke came over, stood beside Adeena, and winked at the children.
Harold suppressed his desire to dash into her arms.
He stared greedily at Adeena‘s face and suddenly wanted to cry.
‘How could I... How could I mistake someone else for Mommy...‘
This was the Mommy he had been dreaming about for four years, how could he make such a mistake?
Alden clenched his fists slowly. He had to use almost all his strength to suppress the urge to cry. The
most important person in his life was his mommy. In the four years since her disappearance, it was like
he had lost his soul...
If it had not been for Melody‘s presence, he would not have been able to control himself and would
have done something...
Only George was still able to act normally. He smiled cutely and said, “Aunt Deena, please come in. I‘ll
have someone serve you tea.”
Adeena had gradually calmed down.
She smiled and said, “Thank you for the warm welcome. I‘m very happy to be here.” George gave a
tight–lipped smile. “Daddy mentioned that you like plain water. This is the plain water I boiled myself.”
He handed her a pink porcelain cup. Adeena took the cup and had a sip of the warm water. It was
obviously tasteless, but she somehow tasted a hint of sweetness.
That sweetness touched her heart, and she felt elated all over.
She realized that she actually liked these four children very much.
Adeena held the cup and looked around. The servants were busy with their duties, but from time to
time, they would look at her with complicated expressions that she could not understand.
The mansion was large and majestic, with oil paintings hung everywhere. There was even a
group portrait of the four children, without Duke or their mother in it. The whole mansion was devoid of
any trace of a matriarch. “Lunch is ready.” Colin instructed the servants to bring the food out. The large
table was completely laden with dishes, all of which had once appeared on the Winters family‘s dining
table before. Seeing Adeena come over surrounded by the children almost made Collin burst into tears.
In the past few years, the Winters family members appeared to have everything in their lives in order,
but, in truth, they lived in a depressive mood every day. When the young madam disappeared, the
Winters family‘s laughter also disappeared. Today, the young madam had finally returned. It was just
that Collin still could not address her as Madam for the time being... but soon he may...
Adeena had only just sat down at the dining table when the four children started taking food for her
diligently. “Mo–this is braised pork, and it‘s delicious.” “These are coke–flavored chicken wings, they‘re
sweet and fragrant. Have a taste, Aunt Deena.”
This is black chicken in lily bulb soup. It‘s good for your skin. I‘ll serve you a bowl, Aunt Deena.”
“Aunt Deena, go ahead and eat.” Surrounded by four children, Adeena suddenly felt an urge to cry.
When Duke treated her well, one could say he was simply acting upon his libido. But why were these
four children so kind to her? She could also feel that they were absolutely sincere toward her.
She did not think that she had such amazing charm, so why were they being like this?
