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
After she read the contract, she closed it and calmly asked, “Kid, who drafted this contract?”“Our young master did it,” Liam answered, “Ms. Daugherty, if you think there’s no problem with it, the contract will be effective once you sign.”Adina chuckled.She was beautiful. Whenever she smiled, the corners of her eyes would curve upward, adding to her charm and coquettishness.Nevertheless, her gaze was clear, and her beauty was both pure as well as bewitching.When George saw her smile, the coldness in his heart seemed to disappear little by little.Realizing that he had stared at Adina for a few minutes, he instantly became irritated.This woman must have bewitched his dad and Harold with the same smile.“I think there’s a problem.”Adina stopped smiling and slowly spoke.She leaned forward slightly while she exerted an oppressive aura.She stared at George, and her pink lips were filled with contempt. “You should study in school when you’re at the right age to attend it.
After Adina picked her kids up, she drove to the hospital.“Aunt Adina, you really came to visit me!” Harold was bedridden, but he was so happy that he wanted to jump off the bed. “Wow! Mel, you’re here too! I’m so happy!”Adina immediately walked over and pressed him down. “You’re still receiving an infusion. Don’t move.”Harold immediately lay down obediently. He looked at Adina for a while before he stared at Melody and kept smiling in a silly manner.His head was still dressed with gauze, and there was a faintly visible blood stain.He was receiving an infusion, so the back of his hand was bruised. Clearly, he had been receiving the infusion for the whole night.Alden pursed his lips. He walked up to the bed and took down the medical record book that was hanging on it.When he extended his arm, Harold was shocked. “What-What are you trying to do? Aunt Adina’s here. How dare you still bully me?”Alden found himself speechless.He waved the medical record book in his hand. “
