She was startled, and she jumped out of the man’s hold before nervously asking, “Do you feel uncomfortable?”

“The back of my head hurts a little.” Duke put his palm against his temple and said, “The doctor prescribed some medicine for me. Can you please bring me two pills from the drawer on the left?”

Adina hurriedly went to grab the medicine and poured him a glass of warm water.

“I think it’s better for you to stay in the hospital and be monitored for a few days,” she said after waiting for Duke to take the medication.

Duke lay on the bed. His raven eyes were trained at the woman, and he softly said, “Our wedding is just around the corner. It’s the most important day of our lives, so how could I wait for the day to come while lying in a hospital bed? I will do the necessary preparations on my own.”

“Other than the fitting for the groom’s dress suit, there’s nothing else you have to prepare on your own.”

Adina strongly disagreed.

    About five chefs stood at the dining hall’s entrance, each with a smile on their faces and teasing looks. “Cough!” Adina nearly choked to death from her own saliva. That meant that her and Duke’s ‘activities’ from last night were known to all the mansion’s servants…Mabel walked over to Adina with a smile and said, “You’re up early, Adina. Have some saffron chicken stew. It’s nourishing for women and…” “T-thank you, Mrs. Winters.”Adina lowered her head and drank her stew, not even daring to look at the people around her.This morning was the most embarrassing one she ever had in her whole twenty-three years of living. She wanted to bury herself in a hole.She felt very frustrated at the thought of Duke still sleeping soundly. But at that very moment, a well-rehearsed “Good morning, Mr. Duke” echoed in the dining hall in unison. Adina subconsciously turned around to see Duke enter the dining hall while dressed in a silver suit.Who could have imagined the tenderness and

    Duke and Adina, on the other hand, went to try out their wedding outfits. “I want to see you in your wedding dress,” Duke went close to Adina’s ear and whispered. “Wait till the day of the wedding,” Adina teased with a bright grin. “Just five more days.”The woman smiled shyly. The man had gentle eyes. The store staff all looked at them with envy as the two came inside the bridal store together.“Mr. Winters and Miss Daugherty are so deeply in love. They look very happy.”“Miss Daugherty has four children, a man who loves her, and she is only twenty-three years old. She’s really winning in life.”“The four children that came to try on the clothes yesterday all have such a strong resemblance to Mr. Winters. Even the young girl took after her father.”“I think the children’s eyes look more like Miss Daugherty’s…”The storekeepers continued gossiping about the couple. The staff members quickly introduced the groom’s dress suit to Adina and Duke as soon as they took a seat in t

    Dillon let out a low sigh. He had missed out on her for twenty-three years, and it was really hard to try to make it up to her. He would not hesitate to get in touch with his daughter if she was struggling in life.But now that Addy had become the Winters family’s young lady, it would be easy to interpret his actions as an attempt to establish a connection with powerful people.Dillon got up, walked away for a few steps, turned back again, and slowly walked back. He then placed a box on the table and said, “Miss Daugherty, I think we have hit it off quite well. Think of it as a gift from an elder to a youngster.”Adina was startled. She glanced at the box and was not sure what was inside, but it was impossible for her to accept a gift from a stranger. “Mr. Jones, I don’t have a habit of accepting someone’s gift for no reason. Please take it back,” she said calmly. Dillon’s hand went stiff, but he still opened the box and quietly said, “This is a jade necklace, and it match

    Duke felt a little annoyed that she was still focusing on the necklace. “I’ll buy you ten of that later,” he whispered in a husky voice as he drew closer to Adina’s ear and lowered his head to her level.Before Adina could even reply to him, she felt the man’s lips getting closer to her, and she felt her earlobe getting enveloped in moisture. “You!”Her face turned a shade of red from shyness. He actually dared to lick her earlobe on this occasion, in a setting like this, and with people watching!“From now on, you’re not allowed to accept anything from other men!” Duke bit on her earlobe and growled. Adina’s breathing became unsteady with anger. This bastard. He was intentionally being so touchy in front of Dillon.There was a good chance that Dillon was her biological father.Adina gave a hard pinch on Duke’s waist. However, Dillon simply saw her actions as flirting with Duke. He had already lost his daughter to another man before he could even reunite with her. Du

    “Ms. Adina, something happened to the Elitos project.”Serene’s voice could be heard from the other end of the line. A trace of exhaustion layered it. Adina knew that Serene would never call her for any minor issues. “What happened? Explain slowly, relax,” she said calmly. “Last week, the president of Elitos, who was based in Sea City, was replaced, and the new president, Benny Krisman, is closely connected to the Jones Corporation. As a result, he added Mdm. Jones of the Jones Corporation as one of the project’s primary chip designers. She will work with our company to complete the chip programming and design.”Adina’s eyes narrowed. “The Jones?”“Yes, it’s the Jones,” Serene said through gritted teeth. “Zhenny Jones’s name and your name, Ms. Adina, are both listed side by side on the project column. Elitos decided to redraft the partnership contract. Ms. Adina, they kept backtracking on their agreements. We can demand compensation from them for breaching the contract.”Adin

    “Dillon, you’re too naive.” Zhenny looked up, and she looked calm. “The business field is filled with lies and deceit. Jones Corporation would have been crushed underfoot without resorting to such underhanded tricks.”Dillon pursed his lips and said coldly, “I have not requested anything from you over these past ten years. This is the first time. Just back out from this project.”“Why?” Zhenny stood up with her eyes narrowed. “Dillon, you are very strange. I’ve used such tactics against my competitors in the past, and you’ve always turned a blind eye to it, so why are you yelling at me about this today? Oh, I get it. It’s because of Adina, right?”Jasmine said sadly while biting her lip, “Uncle Dillon, I don’t mind that you yelled at me twice because of Adina. How can you ruin the business of Jones Corporation because of her?”Dillon’s expression darkened. “Zhenny, just say whether you’re backing out of this project or not.”“No way.” Zhenny sneered, “I’ve used a lot of tricks to

    Adina had become an absentee CEO, leaving Serene in charge of the company’s affairs while she was preoccupied with her wedding plans.But suddenly, something had gone wrong, so she had to head back to the company to rearrange the work tasks for the next few days.Early in the morning, Adina drove to the company.As she stepped into the entrance, dozens of colleagues from the company suddenly gathered around her.“Happy Wedding, Ms. Daugherty!”“May Ms. Daugherty and Mr. Winters forever be in love, and may you grow well into old age together!”“May Ms. Daugherty and Mr. Winters have a baby soon!”“Hey, what are you talking about? Ms. Daugherty has already given birth to a child, so let’s dispense with this blessing.”“It’s better to have more kids than fewer!Adina was speechless.Everyone in the office burst into laughter and made noise.Adina rubbed her nose, thinking that they knew she had two children, but they were unaware that she also had two children of the Winters fa

    The employee froze for a while, then continued, “But Ms. Daugherty, this project has to make its first progress report in three days.”“We have already completed eighty percent of the work. Let the Joneses take care of the remaining twenty percent.” Adina pushed the contract away and said lightly, “Serene, you liaise with the technical department of Jones Corporation. Today’s meeting may now be adjourned. I will personally be there on the day of the report.”Adina coldly curled up the corners of her lips.Since Mr. Benny of Elitos and Zhenny had joined hands to set her up, she had no choice but to let Elitos bear a substantial loss.Elitos was a big company that could afford to sustain certain losses.Adina returned to her office to continue arranging the follow-up work. When she had only just been busy for a half hour, Serene came in while holding a phone, with a quandary look on her face. “Ms. Daugherty, Ms. Yackley from Jones Corporation specified that she wanted to talk to you

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.

    Reverie’s smile was sincere and genuine.She initially helped Ninian only because she thought that Ninian was great. Besides, Ninian said she wanted to rely on herself before the casting, which also impressed and moved her.Unexpectedly, she gave herself an opportunity with her unintentional act. 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. There were also many people who helped and supported each other.When there were people, there would be competition, but there would also be warmth and sincerity.Ninian filmed her scenes in an orderly manner.As for the Winters siblings, their relationships also developed smoothly.George had happily begun preparing for his wedding.

    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.
