Madam Winters’s Fight For Her Children novel Chapter 427

Chapter 427

As darkness took over the sky, Adina was finally finished cleaning up the messy living room. She took a glance at Duke who was reading a book on the couch, and rubbed her nose in confusion. 

‘It’s almost ten in the evening. Why is this man still here? 

Does he want me to order him to leave?’ 

The four kids seemed to be gaining even more energy, and Adina had no idea when they would all be going to bed. 

After giving it some thought, Adina made the decision to put the kids to bed first and deal with Duke after. 

“Alright, Georgie, Hal, Al, and Mel, time to put the toys away. We’re going to go upstairs and take a bath,” she said with a smile while standing at the side of the play mat. 

Harold said, “Five more minutes, Mommy,” without raising his head and while still holding the Transformer toy in his arms. 

Adina was getting a little tired. 

That was already the third time they had asked for five 

more minutes. 

Even Mel had copied her brother and said, “Five more minutes.” 

The little girl seldom spoke, but when she did, anybody who heard her would instantly be melted by her soft voice. Adina looked at Alden and George and asked, “What about you two? Do you want to play for another five minutes as well?” 

Alden nodded and said, “I’m going to stay here with Mel because I’m afraid Harold might bully her.” 

George looked up and said, “Harold plays rough sometimes. I’ll be here to keep an eye on him.” 

Harold was speechless. 

Mel is my favorite , so why would I pick on her? These two are trying to throw mud on me while lying through their teeth!’ 

“Harold is restless wherever he goes. With him here, it’ll be difficult for you to get a good night’s sleep,” Duke added with a smile. “That’s okay,” Adina answered with a soft smile. “L’IL join them in playing if they want to.” 

Regardless, she would never let go of them. 

“It’s difficult for you to take care of four kids on your OWI, so you don’t need to put up such a strong front,” 

Duke left a kiss on the little girl’s cheek and walked out of the mansion. 

He was very fortunate to have a little girl out of his four children since he would have been miserable without her. 

The mansion was suddenly quite empty once Duke left. 

Adina first took a shower of her own and headed downstairs after that. The four kids were finally looking sleepy. She first gave Mel a bath, and then Harold. 

George and Alden, on the other hand, matured quickly and could already bathe themselves by the time they turned three. 

By the time she finished looking after the kids, it was eleven thirty at night. 

Adina immediately dozed off after lying down as her body felt exhausted. 

However, she heard crying in the middle of the night. 

Mel was sleeping in a room on her own, while the other three kids were sharing another room. 

Adina went after the crying sound and found Harold sobbing while sitting on the carpet next to the room’s door. “I want milk. I want milk!” He cried out loud.
