He pursed his lips. Just as he wanted to speak, his phone vibrated in his hand. The incoming call was from Mr. Brown.When he saw Mr. Brown’s name, he felt his heart break.Whenever Mr. Brown called him, it would be something urgent.Harold was in the surgery now, but Mr. Brown was already calling him. Did it mean… The man was always calm, but his fingers trembled right then. He only managed to press the answer button after two attempts.“Master, the young master is fine!” Mr. Brown wept with joy. “The surgery is going to end soon. The doctor said that he will be conscious tonight if nothing goes wrong!”Duke’s heart suddenly began to beat normally again.He quickly walked into the hospital and asked, “How did you resolve the negative blood type problem?”He had contacted some people, but things could not have been resolved that fast.“Master, you might not know this, but Ms. Adina Daugherty, the sister of the young master’s mother, has a negative blood type!” Mr. Brown spoke
Duke sat on the other side of the bed.“Mr. Brown, get us some chocolate drinks,” he said indifferently.Mr. Brown immediately went to execute the order.Aside from the unconscious Harold, there were only two people left in the ward. The air was filled with the scent of disinfectants.“Thank you for this. If you need any help in the future, just let me know,” Duke said in a hoarse voice.“I’m very fond of Harold, so I’m willing to save him. Besides…” Adina’s tongue was a little bitter. “He must have sneaked out of the Winters family villa to look for me. That’s why he met with a car accident.” She sounded a little sad, and she looked down to hide all her emotions.Duke paused for a while before he added, “He really likes you.”Adina smiled faintly.When she looked at the bedridden Harold, she subconsciously reached out to stroke his face.When she saw the boy at the airport for the first time, she took a great liking to him.Later, when Harold came to her again and again, s
It seemed that he did not oppose the idea of marrying this woman.Adina was sharp enough to sense Duke’s gaze, so she quickly changed the subject.She stared at the bedridden Harold and spoke sternly. “You won’t feel the pain now, but when the anesthetics wear off, it’ll hurt until you cry. When you feel the pain, you’ll know how scary a car accident is! Harold Winters, if you want to look for me, you can call me. I’ll go over and pick you up! If you dare to sneak out like today again, I won’t see you anymore!”Her expression darkened, and every word from her was strict.Harold’s eyes became teary. He felt wronged as he said, “Aunt Adina, I won’t do it again. I missed you too much. I couldn’t stop thinking about you. I wanted you to hug and kiss me.”He widened his eyes, and he looked as pitiful as an abandoned puppy.Adina was softhearted. She lowered her head and kissed him on the forehead.When Duke saw this, he frowned.For some reason, he suddenly felt jealous of Harold.
Ever since George turned three, he had started to get involved in business.The company in his hands was a subsidiary company that Winters Corporation had planned to divest two years ago.He took over the company the day before it announced its bankruptcy.After his management this year, Digion Technology became one of the top three most profitable subsidiary companies under Winters Corporation.George had just finished attending a meeting, and he kept having a bad feeling.He always looked calm. Only when he felt disturbed would he look anxious like a four-year-old child.Liam Munoz, his young assistant, respectfully said, “Young Master, your work today is almost done. Would you like to go back and rest first?”George shook his head.He held his chest and kept feeling unwell.Did something happen to Harold?He took out his phone. Just as he was about to call Mr. Brown, his phone on the table vibrated.He cast a glance at it, and the incoming call was from his mother.He pu
He took a deep breath and said, “Mom, I’ll send someone to investigate this. Don’t worry, I won’t let anyone hurt Harold.”“Since she’s taken the initiative to donate her blood and help Harold, she won’t do anything to him anytime soon.” Dew’s voice was low and hoarse from sobbing. “Your dad trusts her now, so she’ll take this opportunity to do something greater. George, I’m really worried that she’ll hurt you and Harold. I’d rather that she hurt me.”“I won’t let that happen.”George ended the call.He turned around, looked at Liam, and calmly said, “Find out what happened in the car accident in front of Daugherty Corporation today.”Liam nodded. “Yes, Young Master.”Then, he took out his phone and made a call.George then instructed his driver, “Go to the hospital.”He drove steadily on the road, and before they arrived at the hospital, Liam received a call from the Police Traffic Unit. “Army Street is always congested, and the average speed of each car is within 20km/h. Wh
“When Harold met with the car accident, Adina was also there, and only her blood could save Harold. Dad, don’t you think it’s all too much of a coincidence?” George slowly said.His voice was deep and hoarse, and he did not look like a four-year-old kid.Duke narrowed his eyes. “Are you suspecting Adina of intentionally causing this car accident?”“She has a motive.” George pursed his lips and said, “Dad, you know the conflict between Mom and Adina.”“She wouldn’t do that,” Duke said indifferently.His subordinate had already reported the car accident to him.It was indeed a planned car accident.However, he did not know who was so bold to hurt his son.But that person was not Adina.“Dad, you haven’t investigated it. How can you be so sure that it’s not her?” George’s voice became colder. “What if your investigation actually points to Adina?”“She would never hurt Harold.” Duke looked up at him. “She saved your brother. You shouldn’t suspect her.”George’s black eyes slowly
Meanwhile, she had used Harold to win the trust of the Winters family.That woman was such a conniving b*stard. He had to be on guard against her.…… Adina picked up the kids and went home.While she was cooking in the kitchen, she received a video call from Harold.“Aunt Adina, why didn’t you come and visit me?” She heard Harold’s weak voice. “I’m alone in the hospital, and I’m so bored. Can you come and keep me company? I want you to read me a story…”Adina waved the spoon in her hand. “It’s too late today. I’ll visit you tomorrow and also bring some chicken soup that I made for you.”“You’re the best, Aunt Adina! You’re my favorite person!”Adina smiled faintly. “You should rest now. Don’t stay up too long.”“Aunt Adina, could you please give me a goodnight kiss.”Harold pouted at the phone screen. His head was still wrapped in gauze. When he made that gesture, he looked pitiful but hilarious.Adina chuckled as she kissed the screen and hung up.She brought the soup s
Digion Technology was an online media company.Rumors of its bankruptcy had spread two years ago. After it was purchased, it unexpectedly rose to the top of the Internet industry all of a sudden.However, most information about the company could not be found online.Adina glanced at the available information on Digion Technology before she nonchalantly asked, “What time is the appointment?”“At 2.00 pm in Peninsula Coffee.”After Adina finished her work in the morning, she drove to Peninsula Coffee.She arrived ten minutes earlier and ordered a cup of coffee. Then, she started to read some information online.She looked up the company again but still could not find anything. Even the family name of the investor was also hidden.She could tell that this company had a strong backing.She just did not know why this company would have its eyes on her newly established studio.Adina waited for about five minutes before she heard some footsteps outside the private room.She smooth
