My Mommy’s Brave Heart Novel novel Chapter 486

Chapter 486

He drank wine, which they all claimed to be “liquid courage,” but in spite of that, he still felt like a coward.

Adina returned after finishing her song, only to find that a big portion of the freshly-opened champagne had already vanished.

Duke’s eyes were already unfocused.

She was speechless.

He claimed to be here to help look after the kids, did he not? He was, however, getting drunk instead.

She gave him a quick look before deciding to keep a safe distance from him.

The children were having a great time. They were singing, dancing, and playing around, and it was soon ten o’clock at night.

After turning off the music, Adina clapped and said, “All right, time for bed, now. Line up and go take a bath, one by one.”

The children were really obedient. The three boys proceeded to shower in Alden’s room, while Adina took Mel to the upstairs bathroom.

The four kids were already sound asleep in their beds by

ten thirty at night. When Adina went downstairs to clean up, she saw Duke leaning back on the couch, his eyes closed and the wine glass still in his hands.

That man had downed the majority of the champagne , and it had long since finished.

“Hey, wake up…”

Adina approached him and called him twice , but he did not respond.

She removed the glass from his hands and helped him lie down properly on the couch. She then went upstairs to grab a thin blanket and cover him with it.

Duke slept soundly on the couch; his face serene. He had obviously consumed a bit too much wine.
