Chapter 505

Mrs. Winters held Melody in one arm while she held back.

When the group of five appeared in the hospital’s corridor, they immediately attracted 100% of all the
nurses’ and doctors’ attention.

However, it was a private hospital. Those who were admitted there were wealthy and noble. The
nurses and doctors dared not gossip about them, consciously leaving after taking a few glances. “Is
Daddy injured?” Melody held Mrs. Winters’ neck and softly asked. Her big eyes were teary.

Mrs. Winters’ heart melted. “No. How could your daddy be injured? He’s just not feeling well, so he
came to the hospital for an examination.”

Melody blinked and looked at the door of the ward. “Why isn’t Daddy coming to open the door?”

As soon as she spoke, the door opened.

When Adina saw the children at the door, she asked in surprise, “Why are all of you here?” Mrs.
Winters explained, “Mel said she dreamed that something happened to Duke last night, and she
insisted on coming to look for her daddy. So, I had to take the kids here and visit him.”

Harold squeezed himself to the front. Just as he was about to rush into Adina’s arms, he was
momentarily stunned. “Oh, Mommy, why is your face so red?”

Alden frowned. “Mommy, are you having a fever?”

“You have to get treatment on time once you have a fever, or else there’ll be severe consequences.”
George looked stern as he said, “Mommy, let’s go and see a doctor.”



Adina was speechless. Her face turned red only because Duke had forcefully held her in his arms just
now.

What did that have to do with a fever?

These kids were so capable of telling tall tales!

She cleared her throat and said, “I’m fine. I just feel a bit warm. Come in and visit your dad first.”

The children instantly ran inside. Melody was first, and she rushed over. “Daddy…”

Duke caught Melody with one arm, and Melody just shot into his chest.

“Oof!”

Duke grunted.

Those men in black had kicked his chest last night. Although his ribs were not broken, he was still in
extreme

When his daughter ran into him like that, he felt like being smacked with a stone.

His face instantly turned pale.

“Daddy, are you okay?”

Melody was so scared that her voice trembled, and tears instantly fell from her watery eyes.

“Goodness, you’ve scared the kids.” Mrs. Winters quickly made her way over. She pulled Melody into
her arms and comforted her. “Your daddy’s fine. He’s alright. Am I right, Duke?”

As Mrs. Winters spoke, she even pressed Duke’s chest a few times.



Duke was speechless.

Did his mother forget her own son when she had a granddaughter?

Or had he been too unfilial to her, hence she had not been fond of him for a long time? Melody sniffled.
“Daddy, are you really alright?” “I’m fine.” Duke’s voice was soft. “I just feel a little uncomfortable. I’ll be
fine in a few days.”

“Haha! Daddy, you look funny!” Harold suddenly covered his belly and laughed. “Your head’s wrapped
with a white cloth, and you look hilarious. Besides, you haven’t shaved your beard, Daddy. You look so
sloppy.”

He even showed a disgusted expression as he said that. Duke found himself speechless.
