Mr. Jones was not very surprised by Duke’s visit.

Half a month ago, Duke had put a stop to Mr. Juan, enabling the Resort Project to be carried out smoothly, and Mr. Jones had heard about it.

If Duke and Adina were really divorced, Duke would never have offended the Department of Housing and Urban Development for Adina.

Mr. Jones nodded and indifferently said, “Since everyone is here, let’s take a seat.”

There were five members from the Jones family and six members from the Winters family. So, a total of eleven people sat down at the round dining table.

Duke was not even thirty yet, but when he sat at the table, the aura that spread from him suppressed Mr. Jones’ noble presence.

The Jones family had a long history, but their power was not comparable to that of the Winters family.

Mr. Jones looked at Duke and said with a sigh, “People always say that age doesn’t define ability. Mr. Winters, you’re a good representation of that statement.”

“Please just call me Duke.” Duke humbled

    It looked like Mr. Jones was telling Adina off on the surface, but he was, in fact, not giving Zhenny a chance to refute.When the children saw this, they did not feel surprised.Over the past few days, they had been cautious the entire time. They dared not make their mommy angry because she would become terrifying once she was ticked off.However, Aunt Zhenny and Aunt Jasmine had insisted on offending their mommy today. Their mommy had actually been holding back when she said those things.After the people at the dining table became quiet, an indifferent Duke finally said, “I don’t need to explain anything between me and Addy to anyone, but since you’ve asked, Aunt Zhenny, I’ll have to explain slightly. Addy and I are very much in love, and we’re in a close relationship. Nobody ever gets in between us. We won’t get a divorce, and we will never get a divorce. Grandpa, Father, please rest assured.”Dillon had witnessed how possessive Duke could get, so even if he died, he would nev

    Jasmine clenched her fists angrily.Since her family name was Yackley, she was inferior to Daniel in all aspects.She could accept Daniel suppressing her, but how could Adina, the illegitimate daughter, step on her too?She walked forward in her high heels, sneered, and said, “Adina, do you really think you can have a place in the Jones family when you’re Mdm. Winters? Dream on! I’ll become the heir of the Jones family. When the Jones family falls into my hands, the first thing I’ll do is remove you from the family!”Adina’s heart was filled with rage.She dug her fingernails into her palms and tried her best to restrain her emotions that nearly exploded.“Your mother misbehaved and slept with my uncle before they got married. Then, she married into the Daugherty family with an illegitimate daughter. I really don’t know how your mother could do such a thing!” When Jasmine saw Adina remaining silent, she thought that Adina was frightened, so she continued to speak aggressively. “Y

    “You insulted my mother, so I just taught you a lesson,” Adina said calmly.“You could have just insulted her back in the same way. Why did you use violence?” Zhenny questioned her angrily.“I don’t insult elders because I’m a cultivated person.” Adina sneered. She unzipped her purse and took out a card. “Here’s $10,000,000 to cover the medical fees for treating your finger and your psychological pain. Is it sufficient?”“No, it’s not!” Jasmine screamed at a high pitch. “I want you to experience the pain of a broken finger. I’ll even pay you $20,000,000!”“If you don’t want it, fine.” Adina kept her card. “Duke, take the kids. We’re going home.”Duke nodded indifferently. “Ms. Yackley, you insulted my mother-in-law. I won’t let this slip. It’s New Year’s Eve today, so I won’t look into it for the time being. I hope you’ll behave yourself.”He glanced at Jasmine with hostility before he gave Zhenny a look of gentle warning.He held Adina’s waist with his left hand while he held G

    Harold pursed his lips tightly.Recently, George had been repeatedly telling him that their mommy was in a bad mood, and he had asked him not to offend her.He had seen his mommy sternly correct the servants a few times when they did something wrong.Once, he heard the servants privately discuss how his mommy was getting increasingly bad-tempered.He wanted to refute them, but he could not do it because he also felt that his mommy was becoming less and less like the mommy who used to love and pamper him unconditionally.Alden had mentioned that their mommy would be back to normal following a new year and new atmosphere.But why did he sense that things were getting worse?“Mommy, did you really break Aunt Jasmine’s finger?” Harold opened his mouth and softly asked.The relaxed atmosphere that Adina had tried to create instantly froze.“That woman isn’t your aunt,” Duke said indifferently. “She insulted your late grandma and your mommy. Having her finger broken is the price she

    “Mommy,” Alden murmured.His mommy did not allow him to be a hacker in the past, so he had to hide his laptop under the bed.Was his mommy supporting him to continue as a hacker now that he was turning five?“Since you’ve received your New Year gifts, it’s time for bed.” Duke carried Melody upstairs. “Daddy will tell you some bedtime stories.”“I love you, Daddy!”Melody kissed Duke on the cheek, and Duke’s heart melted.Since Addy needed some time to adjust, he would accompany the children during this time.If the children actually got hurt, Addy might not be able to forgive herself for the rest of her life.At 12:00 am, they heard the sound of firecrackers outside the window over and over again. When the kids finally fell asleep, Duke returned to the master bedroom.Adina was sitting by the balcony, and there were a few empty beer cans in front of her. Her gaze was dazed, and she looked slightly tipsy.Duke walked over before he grabbed a beer can from her hand and drank it

    “Happy New Year, Daddy, Mommy!”When they opened the room door, the four children gave their New Year wishes at the same time.Adina’s mood became brighter. She handed out four small gifts that she had hidden behind her. “Happy New Year to you too. May you grow up healthily.”“Thank you for the gift, Mommy!”The kids took the gifts and appeared ecstatic.Duke walked over, and he sounded bright and happy as well. “You’re already five years old, so I prepared some gifts for you.”He handed them four documents, which he took out from the drawer.Harold was the first to jump up excitedly. “Wow, Daddy! You’re finally letting me manage a company!”George had been working on the family business since he was three, and Harold had been longing for it too. Now, he could finally have his own company.“What about you, Mel? What’s your gift?” Harold leaned over. “Wow, it’s a piano shop. Daddy’s so generous to you!”He then looked at George and Alden’s gifts again. Each of them received a

    He dragged Mandy out by force.When she got outside, she swung Beale’s hand away. “The young ones insulted your wife, but you didn’t defend me!”“Didn’t that happen because you tried to make a fuss?” Beale said helplessly. “Could Adina, the daughter-in-law, decide on sending Mabel abroad? It was obviously Duke’s order. You’re an outsider. Why do you bother so much?”“An outsider? Why am I an outsider?” Mandy said angrily. “I’m Duke’s aunt!”“And I’m his uncle!” Beale replied coldly. “That’s enough. Let’s go home and stop interfering with their family matters!”The car door was pulled open, and Beale got in. Mandy snorted and could only leave together with him.A while later, Duke drove his car out as well.Adina was sitting in the passenger seat while gently applying her dusty rose lipstick.“Do you really not want me to accompany you?” Duke held the steering wheel and asked.Adina pursed her red lips. “There’s no need. I can handle such a trivial matter. You can hang out in W

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.

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.
