Chapter 612: Chapter 612

Chapter 612 When she was about to take a closer look, the four children rushed in from outside.

“Mommy, since you do not have to work today, let‘s go to the theme park, okay?”

“Mommy, I want to go to the theme park, too.”

Alden looked up and gently said, “Mommy, since Mel wants to go, then let‘s go.”

George nodded. “I‘ll move today‘s afternoon work to tomorrow then.”

Adina came up with a thought in her head. “How about inviting your dad to go to the theme park with us?”

After she said that, the children quieted down.

Although the children did not understand what was going on between the adults, they were all perceptive enough to see that their father seemed to be different from before.

George paused and said, “Daddy is quite busy with work. Will he be willing to come along?”

Alden pursed his lips. “Mommy, it‘s fine for just the five of us to go to the theme park.”

“Yes, I think Daddy is a little creepy.” Harold pouted, saying, “I don‘t want Daddy to join us.”

“Am I the only one who wants Daddy to come with us?” Melody blinked her big watery eyes. “I want Daddy to go to the playground with me. I want Daddy to carry me up high.”

As she said, she choked up and her eyes began to well up with tears.

“Mommy will call Daddy right now.” Adina said in a soft voice,” You speak with Daddy yourself, alright?”

Melody nodded her head forcefully.

Adina dialed the phone and it was quickly answered.

“I miss you so much, Daddy.” Melody said in a soft, tearful voice, “Would you go to the theme park with me?”

Her soft voice went into Earl‘s eardrums through the phone line.

That strange feeling reappeared.

Although Melody was not his daughter, he felt such anguish that he was unable to allow the little girl to cry.

When he was born, he was abandoned by his parents and sent away, and since then his life has been plunged into darkness, constantly spiraling downward. He walked through the world like a ghost and could not find his raison d‘être.

His heart was as vast as the wilderness. It could embrace a lot, but it was also afraid of taking on too much.

This little girl suddenly appeared in the barren wilderness.

She was someone who needed him, someone who relied on him, and someone who attempted to save him.

Maybe he could give it a try.

To attempt to live a normal life, to walk in the light, to fall in love, and to appreciate it.

But given that he was a creature akin to a hyena, was it possible for him to do so?

“Daddy, don‘t you ignore me…” Melody cried out loud. “I was wrong, I shouldn‘t have disturbed Daddy while you were working. I‘m sorry.”

“It‘s okay.” Earl heard himself say this, “I’m just about done with work, I‘ll be back to pick you guys up.”

Melody turned her tears into smiles. “Really, Daddy?”

“Of course it‘s real.” Earl said slowly, “I’m going to hang up first. I have to drive.”

He hung up and caught the bodyguard‘s suspicious eyes. “Mr. Winters, aren‘t we going to a nightclub for fun?”

“Not anymore.”

Earl grabbed his suit jacket and quickly made his way outside.
