A strange aura permeated the room, and Adina immediately pushed the man away.

She rolled over to the right side of the bed and switched on the light with a snap.

The moment the light came on, the man covered his face.

Adina frowned and looked over with a sharp gaze. When the man covered his face, she found his demeanor very unfamiliar for some reason.

It was as if the original Duke had suddenly disappeared.

“The fire burned my eyes today. Switch off the light first.”

The man covered half of his face as he spoke in a husky voice.

Adina crawled from the corner of the bed, pursed her lips, and said, “Show me. If it’s severe, you’ll need some medication.”

She raised her hand and moved the man’s fingers away one by one.

An extremely familiar face appeared before her. Adina saw his eyebrows that were furrowed, a habit that he had developed, and she also observed his tall nose and thin lips that he had used to kiss her.

“Addy, why are you looking at me like that?” the man asked as h

    The morning passed by as Mrs. Winters rambled on.While Adina listened to Mrs. Winters’ rambling, the scenes from last night played out in her mind.For some reason, the odd feeling in her heart intensified.She pursed her lips before she smiled and said, “Mom, did Duke go to the office? I’d like to pay him a visit and have lunch with him.”“Aww! The two of you are still sweet newlyweds,” Mrs. Winters teased. “I was thinking of asking you to have lunch with me.”Adina appeared apologetic as she said, “I have something very important to discuss with him. I’ll have dinner with you tonight.”“Go ahead. Have a safe journey.”Mrs. Winters stood at the door while she watched Adina drive away. Worry slowly filled her eyes.Adina had a smooth journey and soon stopped in front of Winters Corporation.Duke and Adina had just gotten married yesterday, so everyone in the city knew that Ms. Daugherty was now the lady boss of Winters Corporation.As soon as she stepped into the lobby, the

    “I’m really busy.” Earl pursed his lips. “I need to take a flight to Europe for a business trip this afternoon, and I’ll only be back half a month later.”Adina was stunned.He was going out for a business trip on the first day of their marriage?It was not that he could not go, but this man would not do such a thing with the way he felt about her.“What would you like from Europe? I’ll bring it back for you.” Earl touched his thin lips. He had a chronic smoking habit, and he wanted to smoke again at that moment.Adina pursed her lips. “If Mel finds out that you’ll be on a business trip for half a month, she’ll be very sad.”Mel? The image of a little girl popped up in his head.He had only seen the little girl from a distance. He had not officially met the girl after becoming Duke.Earl smiled faintly and said, “I’ll bring her a present so that she won’t be sad.”He suddenly stood up. “Okay, I’ll get ready to go to the airport. Be careful on your way home.”He walked out o

    When the girl started to cry, her three elder brothers panicked.George wiped the tears off her face. “Dad will be back in half a month. After that, you can be with him every day.”Alden stroked his sister’s hair. “You have Mommy and your brothers with you. It’s okay if Daddy isn’t here.”“Mel, have a lollipop!” Harold put a strawberry-flavored lollipop in her mouth. “How is it? Sweet?”Melody’s tears turned into laughter. “It’s so sweet!”Adina forced herself to smile.A child’s world was as simple as that. A lollipop could sweep away all the gloom.An adult’s world, on the other hand, was always complicated.Adina sat on the couch as she contemplated whether she should send Duke a message, asking him to call Melody after he arrived at his destination.The little girl would really get worked up if she could not see her dad for half a month.She searched her contact list and found Duke’s name. Just as she was about to send him a message, her fingers suddenly froze.How could

    Adina leaned back in her chair and nonchalantly said, “Maybe they’re delivering money to me. Let them in.”She had been feeling gloomy recently. Earning some money could give her a temporary sense of happiness.Zhenny and Jasmine soon walked into the meeting room in succession. After Serene served them coffee, she sat beside Adina.Adina put on a fake smile. “Mdm. Jones, Ms. Yackley, may I know the purpose of your visit?”Jasmine scoffed before she looked to the side as if she was full of dissatisfaction.“First of all, congratulations on getting married.” Zhenny drank some coffee before she resumed indifferently. “I just heard this morning that my daughter offended you during the first chip design presentation in Elitos, so I’ve purposely brought her along to apologize to you. I hope that you can be generous and not hold it against a kid.”Adina leisurely replied, “Ms. Yackley should be twenty-two this year, right? She’s just a year younger than me. I don’t think a person of her

    Her gaze was as sharp as two sharp knives, and Jasmine dared not look her in the eyes as a result.“Who’s the one being suppressed here?” Adina sneered. “You used Mr. Krisman to force your way into becoming a collaborator on this project. You’re making me complete the whole project, yet you still intend to take 40% of the profit. Do you think I’m an easy target? If I really wanted to suppress you, I would have kicked you out by now. Why would I give Jones Corporation 20% of the profit?”Jasmine was furious, but she was helpless.This was the stepping stone for her to become the heir of the Jones family. She had to get things done perfectly so that she could impress her grandpa.If this b*tch, Adina, did not exist, she would have completed her task successfully. She would not have to lower her status and come here to seek a collaboration.She gritted her teeth and said, “Adina, you purposely designed a chip framework that has never appeared before. You intentionally made it this wa

    Even if she said it out loud, she would not be able to believe it.“Ms. Daugherty, you need to go home this afternoon, right? Just leave the company to me. You can go home without worry.”When Adina heard what Serene said, she suddenly remembered that Mdm. Xavier had called her last night to ask what she and the kids loved to eat.Going home on the third day after one’s wedding was a traditional custom.As such, Adina packed up her things before she drove back to the Winters family’s mansion.“Madam, these are the gifts that Mrs. Winters prepared for you to bring back.” Mr. Brown and the servants took out dozens of big boxes, and he gave an introduction to each of them. “This is for Mdm. Xavier. This is for your eldest uncle and his wife. This is for your second uncle and his wife. These are for the younger ones…” Every gift box was labeled, and it was clear which box went to which person.Adina felt a little touched.As someone of the younger generation, she never knew such c

    Right after Mdm. Xavier posed the question, Adina’s eyes turned red.She sniffled and held back the sorrow that suddenly flooded her being. She looked down and said, “We didn’t have a fight.”The two of them did not even talk. How could they fight?“Addy, you’re disappointed because Duke didn’t come back with you, right?” Mdm. Xavier patted the back of Adina’s hand and said, “I’ve seen the news. On your wedding day, something happened to the Winters Cemetery. Someone intentionally set it on fire. He needs to spend some time investigating it. Besides, due to the wedding, his work has been put on hold. Now that the wedding is over, he naturally has to put in the time to catch up on his work. He went on this trip so that he can be with you in the future. Don’t get emotional. Just wait for him to return from his business trip.”Adina continued to look down without answering.She was not an inconsiderate woman. She would not ask her husband to stop working and just keep her company eit

    Adina waved at them, and the children, who were sweating heavily from playing, immediately gathered. Then, they obediently said goodbye to the Xavier family members. When Adina stopped her car in front of the Winters family’s mansion, she noticed that Mrs. Winters was sitting in the pavilion absentmindedly. Her eyes were dull and lifeless.Adina asked Mr. Brown to get the kids ready for a shower before she walked toward the pavilion.“Mom,” Adina said, but Mrs. Winters did not respond at all. Adina raised her voice and called out to her again.“Oh, Addy, you’re back.” Mrs. Winters snapped out of her daze and flashed Adina a smile. “How did the children settle in with the Xavier family?”“They had fun.” Adina paused for a while before she softly said, “Mom, do you have Duke’s new contact number?”Mrs. Winters’ face became stiff all of a sudden.It seemed like she did not expect Adina to ask about that. She paused for a moment before she said, “Duke’s business trip is in a Europe

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.
