Adina carried Melody while walking speedily into the mansion before she closed the door with a loud bang.Earl got up from the swing. He stuck his tongue to his upper palate in a playful manner, sneering.He had already lowered himself by taking the initiative to come over, yet this woman dared to pull a face at him.Adina carried Melody into the house, and she coldly looked at Flint, who sat in the living room and played games. “Why did you let that man in?”Flint innocently scratched his hair. “Your daughter wanted to see her dad, and her dad wanted to see his own daughter. I’m just an outsider. How could I stop them?”After he spoke, he stood on his toes, took a look out the window, and said in a lower voice, “But Addy, he did not seem that bad today. He must be here to apologize to you. Don’t fall for it and be so quick to forgive him. You must remember everything that he has done wrong. Whenever a man has had an affair, they will do it again. Don’t be fooled by his good attit
Earl nodded stiffly.Only then did Adina smile. “I’ll go inside and let the kids know.”Her smile was like the neon lights in the night skyline shining like bedazzling jewels, which made Earl’s eyes daze over.By the time he returned to his senses, Adina was already coming out of the house. She held a small leather purse and indifferently said, “Let’s go to the airport.”She pulled open the door of the black car and sat in the passenger seat in front.Earl collected himself before he stepped on the pedal and drove away.When Melody saw the car speeding away from the mansion’s entrance, her face darkened. “Mommy promised to make good food for us, but she did not keep her promise.”“I thought you were unhappy because Daddy left.” Harold teased. “It looks like Daddy is not as important as good food for you, Mel.”“Mommy’s food is always delicious, but Daddy is not very stable.” The little girl rested her chin on her hand and sighed. “Sometimes I really like Daddy, but sometimes I’
The airport was crowded.Adina followed Earl into the VIP waiting lounge.As soon as the man stepped into the room, Catherine’s anxious voice was heard in the room. “Earl, are you really sending me away? Tell me this is not true! Earl, I love you so much. I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave you, even if I die. Please give me another chance…” Catherine rushed over and grabbed Earl’s arm. When she was about to continue begging him, she saw Adina walking in after him.Adina wore a black trench coat, and her imposing manner was ruthless.She coldly said, “Miss Catherine, please release my husband.”Catherine’s hand shook, and her face was full of sadness and anger. “He is not your husband. He is Earl Winters. He is…” “Shut up!”Earl looked disgusted as he coldly scolded her.Catherine’s tears instantly streamed down her face.Adina indifferently tucked her hair. “Duke, leave the room for a bit. I want to talk to Miss Catherine alone for a while.”Earl disagreed as he
“Earl is not the same as Duke. They are two completely different people!” Catherine yelled in a low voice, “Before you knew Earl, he had already been with countless women. His female companion changed everyday, and they are never the same. He’s treating you well because he finds you fresh. When the novelty wears off, you will be abandoned by him, like me.”“Is that so?” Adina smiled. “I’m more beautiful than you, and I have more dimensions than you. I don’t think I’m not even able to make him fall for me. Like now, I’ve asked him to send you out of Sea City, and he is doing it without saying anything. I asked him to leave the room, and he obediently went out. You’ve met Earl for so many years. Have you ever seen him acting upon the whims of a woman like that?”Adina’s words stabbed Catherine’s chest like a sharp knife.She clenched her fists tightly to suppress her grief, discontentment, and jealousy.“As long as Earl can treat my kids as his own, I can live the rest of my life wit
“Earl had some people send the unconscious Duke abroad to Hestia Border.”Adina was stunned again.Hestia Border was an area that always came up in the news. It was notorious for chaos and darkness, and it was a place of death that even international organizations dared not enter.It was really hard to imagine what the unconscious Duke would encounter when he was sent there.Adina suddenly dared not continue listening to Catherine, but she had to know everything that happened to Duke.She closed her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, she was already fighting back her tears. “Catherine, continue.”Catherine subconsciously cast a glance at the door.She said a lot of things. If Earl knew about this, she did not know whether she would walk away from this with her life.“Don’t worry, I won’t tell Earl,” Adina indifferently said, “If my husband is still alive, I will return Earl to you. But if my husband is dead, you’ll never be able to marry Earl.”What she said had struck Cath
This was the first time the woman had spoken to him so nicely ever since learning his identity.Earl acceded to her will. “Since it’s been resolved, you can move back to the Winters family’s mansion tonight.”Adina pulled open the car door and got into the car. Her hand paused as it fastened the seat belt, and she said, “Wouldn’t you look at the time now? If we pack up and move now, it’ll be 11:00 pm after we finish everything. It’s fine if we adults stay up late, but the kids can’t stay up like this. Just because they are not your kids, it doesn’t mean you cannot feel sorry for them.”Her tone carried a hint of censure, and this was an emotion that fascinated Earl.Earl could not describe how he felt. In short, he enjoyed listening to the long list of words that this woman said to him.He held the steering wheel and drove while he asked, “By the way, what did you talk to Catherine about while you were alone with her?”He was simply asking her casually, but Adina was suspicious o
Adina turned around, pulled open the door of the mansion, and walked inside.The dim light at night shone on her back, making her figure all the more diminutive and slimmer.Earl remembered the day he first met her. At that time, he had just wanted to use her.Unexpectedly, the two of them ended up taking things this far.Compared to their first meeting, this woman seemed to have slimmed down a lot. Her waist almost seemed like it would break under his grasp, and her thin frame was frightening to look at.After Adina disappeared from the door, Earl slowly turned away.Meanwhile, Adina gently closed the door, leaned against the door, and let out a sigh of relief.She was really afraid that this man would stop her and ask questions again. She was scared that she would expose herself, and she was also afraid that she would lose her composure.“Mommy, what’s wrong?”Four concerned pairs of black eyes stared at her.Adina felt relieved. She squatted down and said, “Georgie, Hal, A
When she lived in Ascrialia four years ago, Earl had snuck into the manor in Ascrialia to escape the limelight, and she took him in for a few days.Catherine happened to come and visit the manor those days, and the two of them met officially.Unexpectedly, Mabel saw Earl entering Catherine’s room that night, and the two of them ended up on the same bed.Catherine was not even twenty years old at that time, so Mabel was truly shocked.But she also dared not say anything when she thought about Earl’s absurdity, and she also turned a blind eye to this relationship.What she did not expect was that this relationship would actually make a scene in the media after so many years, and it was gradually getting out of hand.“There has been nothing between me and Catherine since a long time ago.” Earl pursed his lips. “As long as Adina knows her place, she will be Mrs. Winters forever.”After he spoke, he went upstairs.Mabel’s heart finally slowly sank in relief.She turned around and l
