Chapter 52
âYes, Sir.â
Mr. Brown immediately answered.
Master usually looked cold and indifferent, but he knew that no one loved the young masters more than him.
People said a fatherâs love was as sturdy as mountains.
Mr. Brown wanted to say that a fatherâs love was as deep as the ocean.
It was as deep as the ocean, and it could also put up with anything like the sea.
On the second floor, Harold sat on the balcony, and his eyes were filled with tears.
He was starving, so he secretly took out a biscuit from his bag and took a few bites.
But he accidentally choked on it, and his tears rolled down soundlessly. âI hate Dad the mostâ¦â
Harold cried while he yelled.
Dad was horrible! He was always so strict with him. He did not even allow him to leave the house, and he made him stay at home to learn those boring thingsâ¦
He wanted to sneak out. He wanted to see Auntie Adina. He wanted to touch Melodyâs face⦠The more he thought about it, the sadder he felt. Suddenly, his phone rang. He looked at it, only to see that it was his elder brother. He was so shocked that he quickly wiped his tears before he pressed the answer button.
âHarold Winters, youâve grown up now. You would actually hide and cry alone.â Harold was shocked.
âGeorge, how did you know I cried?â âDid you just forget that we are twins, and our minds are linked?â
George indifferently said,â Everytime you cry, Iâm aware of it, but this time, you seem to be particularly sad. Tell me what happened.â
Harold looked very embarrassed. âI fell down, and my knees were bleeding. So the pain made me cry.â
âReally? Iâll ask Papa Brown to go and apply ointment for you.â
âNo!â Harold irritatedly scratched his head. âGeorge, can you stop being such a smartypants? Can you also not mind my business? I was just in a bad mood, so I cried. Why? Do I also lose my freedom to hide away and cry now?â
âIâm not stopping you from crying. I just wanted to know what you are crying for.â Georgeâs indifferent voice was heard. âSince you donât want to tell me, I also wonât force you. Thatâs it.
Bye.â
âHey, wait!â
Harold shouted.
He sat in the corner and sighed. He did not have any friends, so he could only speak about what was on his mind to his brother.
âGeorge, I met a woman. She is very beautiful and gentle. I like her a lot⦠But Dad made me quit school, and he wouldnât allow me to leave the house. I canât see her again. Iâm very miserable now.
Everyday, lessons start right after I wake up at 7 in the morning, throwing a million different things at me. Iâm going crazyâ¦â
George interrupted his moaning. âWhoâs the woman?â
âI like the woman. Her eyes are very beautiful, like the moon in the night sky. Her voice is enchanting. If she could tell me a bedtime story, it would be awesome. I would sleep very soundlyâ¦â
âI didnât ask you to compliment the woman. Iâm asking you who the woman is, and what her name is.â
âOh! She is Adina Daughertyâ¦â
George instantly narrowed his eyes.
Adina Daugherty! Dewâs half-sister from a different mother!
The woman who was said to be dead for four years, but suddenly came back alive a few days
ago!
Why would that woman know Harold? Did she deliberately approach him? George coldly said, âHarold, if youâre smart, stay far away from that woman. She is not a simple woman.â
