Chapter 241 Once school was almost over, the kids in the preschool began to carry their bags as they
waited for their parents to pick them up.
Ava was maintaining order, so she did not hear her phone vibrating.
Right then, the dean walked inside. “Alden, Melody, your father‘s here to pick you up.”
Alden immediately frowned. Melody speedily turned around as well. “Mr. Cooper.” Ava immediately
walked over and said in a lower voice, “Alden and Melody don‘t have a father. They are from a single–

Ava stroked her chin.

She could vaguely remember Alden‘s mother mentioning that they did not have a father.
Why did their father suddenly show up?
“Mr. Cooper, let me bring the kids out and have a look.”
Ava then held them in each hand.
Alden frowned but obediently went out because he wanted to see who was claiming to be their father.
Conversely, there was a glint in Melody‘s eyes.
Her glazed eyes were bright with excitement and happiness. Ava had
gotten along with the kids for a long time, so she could easily sense the little girl‘s emotions.

children’s hands while walking toward Tysoni‘s car. Meanwhile, Tyson leaned against the car where he
stood. He kept staring at the kids. Adina was stunned.
She pushed the door open and got out of the car before she waved. “Ms. Jones, I‘m here.”

to see their father or not was not something that she could interfere with. “Thank you, Ms. Jones.” After
Adina thanked Ava, she held her children‘s hands and walked speedily toward her car. Melody glanced
around, but she did not spot the man she had expected. Her eyes were soon filled with disappointment.
Alden narrowed his eyes and calmly sized up the man who was standing nearby. He clearly knew that
Ms. Jones and Mr. Cooper had tried to take him and Melody to this man earlier.

He had never met this man. Why would he call himself their father?

Their father was Duke.
Countless thoughts crossed Alden‘s mind.
Adina hurriedly returned to the car, so she did not notice his emotions. She then pulled the door open t
