Adina placed Melody in the back passenger seat before she drove to the police station and dismissed the case. Then, she went to the preschool to pick Alden up. “Mdm. Daugherty, I’m really sorry! We were too careless. I’ll surely keep my eyes on Melody next time. This will never happen again!” Ms. Jones apologized with a guilty expression. Adina knew that she could not blame the preschool completely. She held the kids’ hands and softly said, “Alden, Mel, you have to listen to the teacher, okay? No matter where you want to go, you have to tell Ms. Jones. You can’t sneak out alone again. Understand?” Alden nodded. “Don’t worry, Mom. I’ll take care of Mel.” Melody innocently widened her eyes before she nodded. Ava’s heart melted. “Melody is really adorable. Okay, wave at me. We’ll see each other tomorrow.”

“Mel met Uncle Duke last time when you were in the hospital. Maybe she has something to look for Uncle Duke,” Alden answered in a low voice. Adina nodded without saying anything else.
