Dew’s eyes instantly turned red.

She bit her bottom lip, and her eyes became teary. She looked like a beautiful woman who had just wept.

She took one step forward and complained about her grievance. “Duke, when you left the banquet early last night, you didn’t take me along. In the end, Mr. Johnson sent me home. Do you know how inappropriate he was? He leered at me and even grabbed my hand! If I hadn’t put up a strong resistance, he would’ve dragged me to a hotel!”

Duke finally looked at her. “Why did you try to resist him?”

Dew found herself speechless.

The question nearly choked her.

Was it not normal for her to resist? Why did he ask such a question?

But since Duke had asked her, she needed to answer properly.

She blinked, and her tears fell. “Duke, I’m not an easy woman. Our night five years ago was caused by an accident. I regretted sleeping with a man before getting married too, but what could I do? You were drunk that night, and you were so strong. No matter how I fought

    Adina drove her kids to their preschool.On the way, she received a call from her assistant. “The staff from Winters Corporation has arrived? Please welcome him for a while. I’ll be at the company in a minute.”After she hung up, she drove faster.Alden frowned. “Mom, are you collaborating with Winters Corporation?”“There’s a smart car project in Winters Corporation, and it’s considered the first of its kind on the market. I’m actually quite interested in it,” Adina casually said.Alden lowered his head.Duke had entered his mom’s life and also collaborated with her on their work.If they spent time together frequently, would his mom fall for that man?After all, Duke was the most desired man in Sea City according to the news.“Alden, what’s wrong with you?”Adina noticed Alden’s expression from the rear-view mirror. She felt worried as she questioned him.It seemed that starting from yesterday, Alden had not been very happy. He appeared to be in a bad mood.“Mom, I’m fine

    “Ms. Daugherty, you’re already running a program designing company at this age. You’re really young and capable.” Mr. Garcia and Adina shook hands, and he greeted her with a compliment.Adina smiled and said, “It’s thanks to my friend’s help, or else it would’ve been so smooth sailing.”Ethan had helped her find a place for her office and also introduced a few of the programming staff in the company to her.If Ethan had not helped her, her studio would still be a mess at this point. Mr. Garcia secretly thought that she might not have merely received help. Perhaps she was just the general manager in name.However, Mr. Garcia was experienced in the industry, so he would not express too much emotion in front of his collaborator. He professionally said, “So, Ms. Daugherty, let’s talk about the preliminary design plans for this project—”Buzz!Adina’s phone vibrated on the table.She cast a glance at the incoming call. It was from Flint, and she directly ended it. “I’m sorry, Mr.

    One second later, her Whatsapp was flooded with messages.[Addy, you’re so cruel![Addy, this is the 999th time that you’ve blocked my phone number. I’ll remember this![Addy, I’m sorry. Give me another chance!]Adina coldly slammed her phone back on the office desk with the screen facing down.She then raised her head and smiled. “I’m sorry, Mr. Garcia. We can continue now. Regarding Visual Studio Code that you mentioned earlier, it is a rather traditional coding software. I’ve amended a few parts—” “Ms. Daugherty, I think I better take this preliminary design concept back to Winters Corporation to study it.” Mr. Garcia stood up. “A-F is a project that Winters Corporation has invested a lot into. Some details can’t be decided by the two of us.”Adina smiled and nodded. “You’re right, Mr. Garcia. We’ll discuss it again after the Technical Department of Winters Corporation audits and reviews it.”Mr. Garcia held the thick document with the design while he walked out of the stud

    Mr. Garcia thought about how he should answer before he slowly said, “I admire Ms. Daugherty’s design concept. She has implemented a brand new programming method, which breaks down traditional coding modules and combines them into a new coding rule. I think it’s very challenging.”Duke nodded, and his gaze was filled with admiration.He was also involved in programming, and he was confident that there were less than three programmers in the world who dared to design a plan like that.Adina was indeed impressive.He threw the proposal back “There are advantages to taking the challenge. The first draft is set for now. Continue keeping tabs on this project.”After Duke spoke, he went to the CEO’s office.Jake patted Mr. Garcia’s shoulder. “Mr. Winters cares about this project very much. If you do well, maybe you’ll be promoted!”But Mr. Garcia chuckled in resignation.Mr. Winters was not an IT person, so he naturally did not understand the hidden risks.Mr. Garcia, on the other h

    “If the air there were clean, would I have stayed in Ascrialia for such a long time?” Mrs. Winters said coldly. “I’ll ask my people to pick Harold up so that he can live with me for a few months.”“No,” Duke rejected her request resolutely. “I’ve arranged a course for him, so he can’t go to Ascrialia now.”“Duke, I’m old, and I need someone to keep me company.” Mrs. Winters’ tone was cold and fierce yet inferior. “I’m living alone in Ascrialia in such a big manor. Do you know how I spend my days? I’m not asking you to come and visit me. I just want one of the boys to accompany me for some time. Do you have to turn me down like that?”Duke became silent, which was rare.When the boys were one month old, he had sent them to Ascrialia for his mother to take care of them.Back then, he could not accept that he suddenly had two kids. Besides, his mother had always wanted to have grandchildren, so he sent them to Ascrialia to fulfill her wish.Unexpectedly, after the boys lived abroad

    “Mrs. Winters, marriage should exist because of love.”Catherine flashed her a faint smile.“Without love, marriage is just a grave where love goes to die. Duke obviously doesn’t want to build a grave for himself just for the children’s sake.”Mrs. Winters shook her head and did not say anything,She had been in Ascrialia for many years, and she had lost control over her son a long time ago. Whatever she said would not mean anything to him.“Mrs. Winters, I really like Duke’s perspective on love.” Catherine suddenly lowered her head and smiled. “I’ve known you for so many years, and I hear Duke’s name every day. But, I haven’t met Duke before. Mrs. Winters, do you have a picture of him?”Mrs. Winters cast a glance at Catherine.Catherine had appeared in her life about four years ago. She would come and visit her every day. In turn, Mrs. Winters would share her personal thoughts with the young lady who was in her early twenties.Mrs. Winters had even told Catherine about the mis

    She was a PhD graduate who had returned from abroad, and she was twenty-eight years old. She had ear-length hair and looked smart as well as capable.Queenie scoffed. “You were the manager of the Sales Department for about five years, but you were demoted instead of being promoted. Don’t you feel unhappy at all?”“I’m just obeying our superior’s arrangement,” Elina said indifferently. “It’s my honor to be Ms. Daugherty’s assistant as well.”After she spoke, she walked to the manager’s office and knocked on the door.“Coward!” Queenie said scornfully. “A PhD graduate from abroad? You don’t even fight for yourself!”At that moment, Elina pushed open the door to the manager’s office, and Elina heard the sentence clearly.She looked over through the gap in the door and saw Queenie, who was dressed up differently.Why did she find this woman familiar?Adina narrowed her eyes and thought about it before she finally remembered.During her eighteenth birthday celebration five years ag

    Elina walked out of the manager’s office with a dark expression.Queenie scoffed. “New superiors have new rules. She must have implemented her first rule on you, the former manager. Elina, if you want to stay in Daugherty Corporation, you can talk to me nicely. Perhaps I can help you beg Dew to let you continue working in the company.”Elina stared at her with a complicated gaze. “Aren’t you worried at all?”“Why should I be worried?” Queenie sneered. “I’m Dew’s best friend. No matter what I say, she’ll listen to me!”She had also been involved when Dew set Adina up that year, so it meant that she also held Dew’s biggest secret. Therefore, whenever she requested something, Dew would generally not turn her down.She stared at Elina arrogantly. “You always disrespected me when you were the manager. I’m a generous person, so I won’t remember your transgressions. If you apologize to me, I’ll call Dew now.”Elina’s expression darkened.Did she disrespect Queenie or did Queenie purpos

Ninian just said that she wanted to announce some good news!”His words reminded everyone at the venue.With that, almost everyone held their breath and listened to her.“Everett and I will be holding a wedding soon!”“What?!”“Ah! Awesome! The day has finally come!”“Sob! Ninian and Everett finally have a happy ending! I’m going to cry! They’re my youth! I’ve witnessed love that has gone the distance!”“You have my blessings!

    The Winters family fell silent again.Among the three sisters-in-law, Lana was already so moved that she wept. Raina and Nerola were stronger, but their eyes turned red too.The Winters brothers, who were initially touched, instantly appeared dissatisfied as a result.They were actually moved and crying for other men? Women, you were playing with fire!Naturally, the Winters brothers did not have a chance to vent their anger because Duke had already stood up.He walked to the similarly outstanding young men, who were standing side by side, and patted their shoulders. At this moment, he seemed to age a little. He did not look like the overlord who dominated the business industry in the past.“From now on, I’ll leave my two babies to you.”When Brooklyn and Everett heard this, they were taken aback, but their eyes were soon filled with excitement.Before they could respond, Duke had already walked far away. Meanwhile, Adina got up abruptly to accompany him.She turned back and l

    “Uncle Duke,” Brooklyn and Everett greeted Duke at the same time.Brooklyn was older, so he moved a step forward first and said, “Uncle Duke, this is something that I prepared three years ago. All properties under my name, including shares that aren’t limited to the family business, properties, estates, stocks, etc… were transferred to Mel three years ago. Whether in the past or in the future, everything I have, including my life, will belong to her.”Melody was shocked when he said that.All his properties had been transferred to her? He never mentioned anything to her. He just silently gave her everything.“Daddy…” Melody looked at Duke, and her clear gaze was filled with helplessness which was rare.Brooklyn was the only person, other than her family, who was willing to sacrifice everything for her.Such love that was enthusiastic, reserved, hidden, yet deep and long-lasting made her heart seize.George took the documents from Brooklyn and passed them to Duke.Duke flipped t

    At the same time, Alden replied to her.“Daddy and Mommy are just in the next city. The journey will take two hours.”Melody was speechless. She was right!There was murderous intent on the indifferent and delicate girl’s face.Good! Great! She wanted to see where her father could hide this time!When Ninian came out after putting her makeup on, it was still early. There were still two hours before the ceremony’s banquet.There was still half an hour left before her father came home. At this time, Melody secretly called Everett and Brooklyn to come over. They were fully prepared, and they just waited for Duke to return home.At the side, George, Raina, Harold, Lana, Alden, and Nerola were watching the show.After the Winters sisters worked hard, the three of their sisters-in-law were successfully bribed to support them to get married as soon as possible.Even the three of their henpecked brothers also took their sides.Now, the Winters siblings had everything ready.

    There was also “as long as a woman had a stable job and strong support from her family, she would be happy and relaxed even if she stayed single for her whole life.”She could go on.Besides, what was more cunning about Duke was that he would never post the quotes using his own account. He would use his wife’s, Adina’s WhatsApp, to post inspirational quotes and links every time.In the beginning, it caused the Winters siblings to panic for a time, and they thought that their mother opposed their marriage.They sighed in relief only after Alden unintentionally hacked his father’s account. He realized that his father had found the posts and forwarded them to his mother before posting them using his mother’s phone.It was fine. It was normal for the father-in-law to trouble his sons-in-law.It was the same theory as the mother-in-law having conflicts with her daughters-in-law.However, the roles changed in their family.

That made Reverie feel blessed and surprised.Hearing what she said, Ninian felt warm and comforted.Everyone thought that the entertainment industry was filthy and full of schemes.In reality, there were many people who pursued their dreams and worked very hard there.

    However, to the surprise of those haters, Ninian, who was acting for the first time, not only did not drop the ball on any of her performances in the Oscar-level mission, but she also managed to portray her own charm and personality in the character very well.From her gentleness and firmness at the start to the grandeur during the protest to her enthusiasm and passion even when captured by the enemy and taken to the execution ground, her character arc represented the experiences of countless revolutionary predecessors.She had absorbed the spirits of many ancestors into her body. Seeing her alone demonstrated the bravery and unstoppable power of Cairnstan’s youth.Before she was executed, she looked at the rising sun and showed a gentle and firm smile.In the end, gunshots rang out, and her body dropped to the ground.

    “What? What turn of events?” Nilson immediately asked. “We have defenders!”“Defenders? What defenders? Are you talking about soccer now?” With wide eyes, Nilson asked.“No, not those types of defenders! What I mean is that someone stepped in and is explaining on Ms. Winters’ behalf! But it’s not one of our people. It’s defenders from outside!” explained the staff. “What?” Nilson immediately stood up. “Let me see!”The staff quickly handed the phone over to him, and the website page on the screen kept on refreshing.
