Twins Secret (Tiffany)

Chapter 285 Swear to Defend Daddy and Mommy to the Death

On the other side of the house.

Dorinda and Aiden were sitting in a room together.

Aiden had been about to head downstairs, but he stopped in his tracks when he heard Dorinda crying behind him, sitting on the edge of the bed.

He panicked, not knowing what was wrong with Dorinda, and quickly sat down next to her, asking, "Why are you crying all of a sudden? Is it because you're not used to being back home?"

Dorinda bit her lip and shook her head, still feeling upset. "Aiden, I feel like they are not welcoming me."

"How could you think that way? You're overthinking it," Aiden said, taking Dorinda's hand to comfort her.

He knew that Leon and the others weren't the type to target someone without reason. It was all in Dorinda's head.

But Dorinda didn't seem reassured. Instead, she clung to Aiden's hand even tighter. "I didn't mean to break that porcelain doll... Can you ask Miss Grey not to be mad at me?I can also cover the cost to replace it."

"Aiden, I think Miss Grey is so lucky to have three adorable kids. I'm genuinely happy for her and want to be friends with her. I don't want her to misunderstand me..."

Dorinda's tears didn't stop as she spoke.

Aiden felt a pang of sympathy and used his hand to wipe away her tears. "I

understand. I know you have a good heart and you're not a bad person. I can explain this to Miss Grey for you, but I don't think she's the type to hold a grudge. She doesn't blame you, so don't worry about it, okay?"

Aiden cupped Dorinda's face in his hands and kissed her forehead.

Aiden's gestures often made Dorinda's heart race. But every time she saw Leon, her thoughts would shift back to him.

Like now, Aiden's actions made Dorinda's heart beat faster. It wasn't that she didn't have feelings for Aiden-she did. But Dorinda knew she couldn't let herself fall for Aiden completely, or she'd forget her feelings for Leon. She wanted to become a better person and needed someone more impressive to do that.

And Leon was just the right person.
