Chapter 974: Chapter 974

Chapter 974 Melody bit her lower lip. Even if the mommy she remembered was a hot–tempered person, she still missed her and hoped that she would come home. “What‘s wrong, Mel? Why aren‘t you eating? Is the food not to your liking?” Adeena smiled and asked with a gentle look in her eyes.

The tears almost flowed from Melody‘s eyes.

‘Mommy wasn‘t this gentle and soft before… Did I really make a mistake?‘

“Don‘t cry.” Adeena promptly wiped her tears. “Since you insist on me being your mommy, then you can call me Mommy. I don‘t mind.” Melody covered her lips as she cried. She sobbingly said, “Can you give me a hug?” “Of course, I can!”

Adeena reached her arms out and brought the girl into her arms.

This nine–year–old child was already a big girl, yet she lay against Adeena‘s shoulder and cried her heart out.

Muller, who was close by, quickly took several pictures of them, then he heaved a deep sigh… He had served Young Lady Melody for three years, and he had never seen her look so miserable before.

In the eyes of others, the genius pianist Melody Winters was an aloof girl who would neither cry, smile, nor show any unnecessary expressions. Only when she was with her father or her brothers, would she smile a little. But that smiling expression never reached her eyes.

Today, he saw Young Lady Melody‘s wholehearted smile and heard her sobs of grief… ‘Could this woman really be the Mdm. Winters, who disappeared four years ago?‘

Muller was about to check the Internet for previous photographs of Mdm. Winters when he saw Melody, who lay on Adeena‘s shoulder, suddenly stop crying. Her aloof eyes were fixed at Adeena‘s back.

Then, she lifted a long strand of hair from the woman‘s shoulder and discreetly tucked it into her sleeve…

Muller could not help but approve of the scene in his heart.

‘Young Lady Melody is clever indeed. She even knows to take a hair sample back for a paternity test.

Having a likeness was not irrefutable evidence. Once the maternity test results were out, then everything would be made clear.

“Look at you, crying like a hungry kitten.” Adeena used a napkin to help wipe the girl‘s tears away.

“Look at how many fans there are around the restaurant. Everyone might think I was bullying you.”

Melody looked up and solemnly said, “Don‘t worry, Mommy. Today‘s events will not appear on the news.” With that, she finally began to eat her meal. After they finished their meal, Muller walked over to them respectfully. “Young Lady Melody. there‘s still half an hour before the flight. We need to get to the airport now.”

Melody stared at Adeena with reluctance all over her face. “Mommy, how do I contact you?”

“Add me on WhatsApp.”

Adeena took out her phone and the two of them added each other on WhatsApp.

Muller led eight other bodyguards to escort Melody out of the restaurant. They bowed as she got into the car, and the car slowly disappeared onto the streets of Cloud City.

At that moment, Adeena‘s heart suddenly felt empty inside.

She did not go to her company, but instead drove back to the Willis family‘s mansion.

As soon as she entered, Ruth‘s voice was heard. “Deena, why did you come home empty handed?”

Adeena coolly raised an eyebrow. “What was I supposed to bring home?” “Have you forgotten?

Tomorrow is grandma‘s eightieth birthday. Shouldn‘t you prepare a birthday present?” Ruth said with a wink.

“The birthday present has already been prepared. Don‘t worry about it, Ruth.” Adeena‘s face was still indifferent, and Ruth‘s provocation did not bother her at all.

In the entire Willis family, if Ruth was said to be secretly trying to exclude her from the family, then Mdm. Willis blatantly disliked this adopted daughter.
