It was not until the warm winter sun shone in from the balcony that Adina and Duke woke up lazily.

It was already 8:00 am. The two of them, who rarely woke up late, had gotten busy the entire night, so they slept in a little longer.

Just as Adina was about to wake up, Duke wrapped his arms around her waist. “Addy, you should sleep a little longer. You were exhausted last night.”

“Aren’t you more exhausted?” Adina said without looking shy. “I still have to head to the company and work today. Don’t pester me.”

After she said that, she quickly jumped off the bed.

If they continued to lie in bed for a little longer, the man would definitely take advantage of her again.

When Duke saw her running into the bathroom, he subconsciously chuckled.

He lifted the blanket and got up. When he looked at the withered leaves and warm winter sun outside the window, his eyes were full of warmth.

Once he finished his work this quarter, he would take Addy to the south for winter break.

    Adina secretly sneered.His wife had been slapped, yet he had come over to apologize to her instead.Sophia was wrong, but her husband was clearly using her as a stepping stone this time. She was really pitiful.Adina did not understand why Sophia kept holding on to the marriage.“I’ll be the host this afternoon and treat you to a good meal. Addy, please don’t bother about Sophia.”Sean chuckled as he continued speaking.He flashed her a smile, but different thoughts popped up in his mind.He had visited the Xavier family’s mansion yesterday and heard from Mdm. Xavier that Adina was not divorcing Duke at all.Besides, Mdm. Xavier made it sound as if the two of them were still pretty close.Even if they were divorced, Adina was still the biological mother of the Winters family’s young masters, so she could not be offended under normal circumstances.Moreover, Adina was the Jones family’s only daughter.Gardner Corporation happened to have a collaboration with Jones Corporatio

    After finishing their work in the morning, Adina, Serene, and a few colleagues went downstairs for lunch.Just as Adina walked through the restaurant’s door, she saw Sean and a young woman sitting near the restaurant’s window. The woman was wearing a gorgeous and seductive outfit.She leaned on Sean as she sat, and her chest was pressed against Sean’s arm. Meanwhile, the man was moving his hand over her waist and hips. If this had not been a public place, Adina would have thought that the two of them would give a live performance.“Let’s go somewhere else,” she said indifferently.Before she could turn around, Sean spotted her and immediately came forward. “Addy, please come over and sit. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”When Adina saw his smiling face, she felt extremely uncomfortable. “I’m not free,” she said coldly.“Addy, aren’t you having lunch anyway? Let’s eat together then.” Sean chuckled to make Adina stay. “I’d like to talk to you about something serious.”“

    Sean left with the swing of his arm. “Wait!”The woman cradled her face. She stomped on the floor and shouted at him.At the Gardner family’s house…After Sophia married Sean, she became the Gardner family’s third madam. She did not have much serious business to attend to aside from enjoying her life and partying. Right now, she was talking to Morganna on the phone.“No matter what, I won’t return to the Xavier family anymore. The incident last night is pissing me off!” Sophia gnashed her teeth. “When that b*tch slapped me, Grandma just stood by without helping me. Father was the same. He didn’t protect me even though I’m his daughter! My family treats me like trash. I won’t go back to them anymore.”“That’s not true. The Xavier family does treat you like family. When Sean took a woman back to his home last time, your father personally went to see him. He’s been the one keeping Sean in check. Sophia, your father cares about you. Still, you have to prove yourself so that we don

    Sophia’s continuous cussing drove the woman out of the house.At night, after Sean’s driver returned home, Sophia finally learned the entire story, and she froze.“You mean, Adina cussed those b*stards out in public, and Sean drove that b*tch away out of embarrassment?”The driver was used to Sophia calling Sean and the woman “b*stards.” He nodded and said, “Mr. Sean wanted to discuss Jones Corporation with Ms. Daugherty, but she rejected him without hesitation. The reason she turned down his offer is due to his extramarital affairs with that woman.”Sophia looked conflicted after she heard his words.Before this, she hated Adina deep down to her marrow because Adina had slapped her. Sophia could not wait to return the favor with ten slaps.At that moment, she finally learned that Adina had sided with her and even spoken up for her.Whenever Sophia cussed Sean out, he would beat her up.However, Adina was different. She not only made Sean lose his dignity, but she also caused h

    “Grandma isn’t in a good mood. Spend more time with her after you finish school, okay?” Adina stroked her children’s heads before heading to the kitchen to prepare dinner. Alden nodded. “Does it have anything to do with Earl?”Alden and George were aware of the story so Adina did not hide it from them.She heaved a sigh and said, “Grandma will see the light as time goes by. Don’t worry too much about her.”After that, Adina poured oil into the frying pan and prepared dinner skillfully.The kitchen helper had prepared all of the ingredients for her in the morning. All Adina had to do was cook. She finished preparing seven dishes within half an hour.After they had dinner, the children read books and did their homework. Meanwhile, Adina and Duke worked in their study. Adina was in the middle of studying some information regarding Jones Corporation. She was one of the candidates for the succession contest, so she had to gain a better understanding of herself and her competitor to

    The Jones family discovered Adina less than a week ago. She did not have any network in Jones Corporation.As for her ability, she could not possibly demonstrate her ability within a month. Hence, the competition’s approach was unfair to her.Dillon considered the issue and said, “Father, I think a month is too short for the contest. We should give it half a year to allow Addy to adapt to Jones Corporation and its surroundings…”The key was to develop Adina’s network so that she had a chance to prevail in the tough battle. “Uncle Dillon, that’s very funny,” Jasmine played with her hair and said without hesitation. “Back in the day, after my mother returned from abroad, she fought for her position with you even though she didn’t have a complete understanding of Jones Corporation. My mother managed to adjust within a month’s time, so I trust Adina can too.”Dillon was frustrated when he heard her words.Back then, he had shown no interest in succeeding Jones Corporation. He agre

    Regardless of which project it was, she had all the network and the final say.“Father, let’s just follow Grandpa’s suggestion,” Adina said calmly. “It’s good that we can choose freely so that we won’t complain about it in case one of us loses.”Adina understood Jasmine well, so she purposely said that.Jasmine snorted. “Don’t regret your own words.”Adina spread her hands and nonchalantly said, “There’s nothing to regret. Do you really think I care about taking over Jones Corporation?”Jasmine was put on the spot once again. In Jasmine’s eyes, Adina was a b*tch that had come to cause her trouble.Adina provoked Jasmine’s anger with every word she spoke and every glance she cast her way.It took Jasmine all of her willpower to suppress her anger. As Adina had predicted, Jasmine chose the petrochemical project.“I’ll take the resort project then,” Adina said indifferently.The resort project was ranked second among the three. It was a mediocre project in every aspect.Dillon

    “For those who haven’t spoken their minds, may I know what your decisions are?” Adina smirked and asked, “Are there any of you who want to join me on my resort project?”Right after she spoke, the meeting room fell silent.Those who had not taken a stand did not want to get involved in the Jones family’s internal strife for power. If they sided with the wrong team, they would be removed from Jones Corporation.Jasmine smiled hypocritically. “Adina, how about I assign two men to help you in your team? You can’t handle the project all by yourself.”Given such a big project, they would need at least a dozen people on their management team. A single person could not possibly come up with everything for the project.Fortunately, Zhenny’s position in the company was secure. A word from her, and none of the staff would dare to go against her…Since Adina wanted to compete with her to be Jones Corporation’s successor, Jasmine would make Adina fail in everything she did so that she would

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.

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.

    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.
