Adina opened the car door and got into the driver’s seat.

Just as she was about to start the engine, the door to the passenger seat opened.

Duke bent down and got in the car. He looked calm and relaxed as if he was in his own car.

Adina flashed him a sarcastic smile. “What are you doing, Mr. Winters?”

“My car broke down. Please send me back.” Duke leaned back in the seat as he spoke nonchalantly. “It won’t be a waste of your time.”

Adina moved her hands away from the steering wheel before she calmly said, “I believe that the Daugherty family members would be willing to send you back. Should I call Dew?”

“Are you really afraid of being alone with me?”

Duke suddenly lowered his body, and his cold face moved a few inches closer to Adina.

They could feel each other’s breath, and for some reason, the air between them became flirty.

Adina’s heart fluttered all of a sudden.

She pretended to remain calm as she turned around and held the steering wheel. “Thank you for saving my daught

    She had investigated the business situation in Sea City, and she could tell that Winters Corporation dominated it. If she could work with Winters Corporation, it would be like boarding a safe ship. She could just wait to receive money.But why would Duke choose her?Was it just because the professor from Harfard University recommended her?She had not been the only student talented in designing chips at Harfard University. She had only managed to be ranked third best.While Adina contemplated in silence, she finally arrived at the Winters’ family mansion.It was situated halfway up the mountain. The three-story independent mansion was not very big, but the pool, garden, and playground occupied at least one thousand square feet.This was the real mansion.“Mr. Winters, I’ll think about the collaboration. I’ll give you my answer in three days.”Adina wore a polite faint smile as she spoke.Duke opened the door, nodded, and said, “I’ll await your good news then.”Soon after, h

    Adina seriously stared at Harold. “You’re a boy. You can’t cry so easily.”Melody was a girl, and she rarely cried too.“I won’t cry anymore, Auntie Adina…” Harold sniffed. “I… I haven’t seen you for such a long time. I’ve missed you…” As soon as he said that, his face turned red.The corner of Duke’s lips twitched.When did this rascal learn how to say such cringey words? Why had he not been aware of it?Besides, what kind of charm did this woman have to make this mischievous boy, Harold, look so pitiful and sad?Adina felt embarrassed because of it too.She was actually fond of the kid, but Harold was a child of the Winters family. If she showed him too much concern, they might suspect her of trying to seek connections with the Winters family.She put Harold on the floor and said in a low voice, “I still have something else to do, so I’ll be on my way. Goodbye.”“No!”Harold hugged her thighs.It sounded like he was choking up again. “You just got here, but you’re alread

    Duke, on the other hand, looked down on her.She was a lady, who had lived a pampered life. Would she be able to cook?Even if she picked up some cooking skills over the years, it was impossible for her to be better than the chef, whom the Winters family hired and paid handsomely.Adina did not care about what the Winters thought.So, she followed Mr. Brown into the kitchen. There were different kinds of fresh ingredients there, and it looked like the kitchen of a big hotel.She glanced around before she took two tomatoes and a pack of spaghetti out. She planned to make a simple spaghetti with tomato sauce.Mr. Brown stood at the side and reminded her, “The young master doesn’t like spaghetti…” He was hinting at her to change the dish.However, Adina chuckled. “He’s been skipping many meals. He should eat something light so that his stomach can digest it.”After she spoke, she lit up the stove and poured the oil into the pan. She moved swiftly and did everything in one go.M

    The plate of spaghetti contained tomatoes, which gave the sauce a completely different color from water.When the sauce splashed onto Adina’s chest, her top immediately got wet, and the outline of her bra became visible.“So-Sorry!”Harold was terrified.Auntie Adina finally came to see him, but he did such a stupid thing.“I’ll wipe it for you…” He quickly went to get some tissues and wipe Adina’s chest.Duke suddenly frowned.He did not like Harold touching the woman there.He stood up indifferently and said, “Ms. Daugherty, you should go and get changed.”Adina used the tissues to cover her chest.She could feel that her top and bra had gotten wet.She definitely could not leave the house with her outfit looking like that.She pursed her lips and said, “I’d like to take a shower and dry my shirt. I wonder if it’s convenient for you, Mr. Winters?”“Yes, of course!”Harold immediately nodded before he held Adina’s hand and walked upstairs.He pushed open the door to a

    It was the sound of water flowing out of the showerhead. Duke sat outside and suddenly felt thirsty. He looked to the side a little and could see her blurry figure behind the bathroom’s glass door. After Adina finished taking care of the sauce on her chest, she started washing her top. She threw Duke’s shirt to the side, as she did not plan to put it on. However, after she washed her top, she realized that there was no hairdryer in the bathroom. She could look for it outside or ask the man outside to deliver a dryer to her, but she could not walk out naked. So, she could only put the shirt on helplessly.The white shirt was so large that it came down to her knees and covered her whole body. Adina opened the bathroom door and walked out only after she looked at the mirror and made sure that there was nothing wrong with her reflection. The water vapor from the bathroom instantly flew out, and her body seemed to be surrounded by a thin layer of mist. It seemed that ev

    Adina raised her wrist and looked at the time. It was already 4:00 pm, and the class in the preschool was going to be over soon. She had unknowingly been with the Winters family for so long. She had initially wanted to go to her studio and take a look, but it was late. Hence, she just went straight to the preschool to pick up her kids.Adina drove there, and after she waited for a while at the entrance, she saw her kids walking out while holding hands. Her kids were even surrounded by a large bunch of children. “Alden, you were awesome today. You have to be the smartest kid in our preschool!” “Alden, you’re so handsome. I want to be your friend too. Can you sit with me tomorrow?” “I want to sit with my sister,” Alden said indifferently. “If you want to be friends with my sister, I’ll be friends with you too.” “Melody’s so pretty. If I play with her, I’ll become a beautiful princess like her!” “I want to be friends with Melody too!” Therefore, the children surrounded

    Alden frowned. “Mommy, let’s go to that restaurant and see who they are from there.”Given the circumstances, that was all they could do for now. Adina turned the steering wheel, and just as she was about to park in front of the restaurant, she suddenly heard a loud bang behind her car. When she looked back via the rear-view mirror, she noticed that the van had been hit by a sedan. There was a large dent in the van, and it could no longer be used. The van driver was afraid of showing his face, so he dared not get out of his van to ask for compensation. He quickly drove his dented van away. When the sedan door was opened, a man in an ash gray suit stepped out. The man was someone who would make the ladies scream as soon as he showed up. His eyes were brown, and they appeared dazzling under the evening light. Upon closer look, they were just a pair of standard charming eyes. The man smiled faintly and walked up to Adina’s car with his long legs. He leaned on the windo

    Adina carried the groceries and walked into the mansion as she said, “This is my grandmother’s house.”“Your grandmother’s really nice to you.” Flint clicked his tongue. “But no matter what, the house belongs to your grandmother. It’s not under your name. Perhaps you can marry me. I’ll give you a seaside mansion with a sea view, and it’ll only be under your name.” Adina gave him a kick. “Flint Morton, if you keep talking cr*p, you can get out!” “Hey Addy, be gentle! It hurts!” Flint carried Melody while he pretended to hide. “I’m sorry. I won’t joke with you again.” He ran to the living room and sat on the floor to keep Melody company as she played with her blocks. Alden cast a glance at his sister before he habitually switched on his laptop and logged into his personal account. Suddenly, he frowned, and a cold look appeared in his eyes. Someone was actually decoding the surveillance video that he had encrypted. Half of the 108 passwords had already been cracked. He im

    The screen was full of comments like, “I can’t accept this sadness.”When the host saw the audience overreacting, he smiled to smooth out the situation and said, “Have you forgotten? 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! You have to be happy for the rest of your lives!”Their cheers grew louder and louder, almost overturning the whole award hall.Everett was standing backstage.

    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.

    “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.
