Semua Bab Madam Winters’s Fight For Her Children: Bab 1021 - Bab 1030

“Mr. Winters!” Adeena leaned back once again. “Please don’t make such a joke.”“It’s not a joke.” Duke looked at her seriously. “Ms. Willis… or should I call you Adee. I hope you don’t mind, Addy.”Adeena wanted to tell him that she minded it, very much. But when her eyes met his, she could not bring herself to say it out loud. She suddenly became nervous, and her heart beat rapidly. “Mr— Mr. Winters, I just remembered having something to do. I’ll excuse myself!”She took her handbag and left swiftly. No matter what she tried to make it look like, she was definitely running away from Duke. He touched his chin gently as he smiled a little. ‘Even though Addy lost her memories, her feelings remained. Whenever I lean into her, she’ll be at a loss.‘Oh, Addy. She’s still the same Addy four years ago…’He stood up and went to the reception room. He headed directly to the elevator.Jack rushed over. “Mr. Winters, there’s a transnational meeting that you need to chair in person

She suddenly recalled what Adeena had said. All of the gifts that seemed to have been given to her by fate actually already had prices attached to them that required payment for them.How much did she have to sacrifice before she could possess them…?And was the sacrifice something she could afford?Ruth raised her eyes to look at the man before her. “Daniel, why do you keep giving me things? I want to know the real reason.”The question stumped Daniel. He really did not know how to answer it.But when he saw the persistence in the girl’s eyes, he could only form an excuse on the fly. “On the night of the banquet, I couldn’t bear to see such a beautiful girl get embarrassed… As for today, when I saw these things, I thought they really suited you.”Ruth’s eyes shone. “So you’re saying that you bought these specially for me?”“I didn’t buy them myself…” Daniel revealed part of the truth. “Someone else bought them, you don’t have to thank me so much.”Ruth thought an assistant or

Alden smiled. “Then please make an introduction for us, Mr. Willis.”“Yes, I’ll go back and tell Adeena!”Brady left Winters Corporation in a daze. When he returned to the apartment, he still had not recollected his bearings yet.When he left Cloud City, his father had repeatedly warned him, saying that Winters Corporation, from top-level management to grassroots employees at the bottom, were all arrogant and would look down on foreign merchants like them.Even so, after dealing with people from Winters Corporation twice, he did not feel that they were looking down on him.Moreover, he even successfully negotiated a second deal.It was no wonder that Winters Corporation’s industry could flourish all over the world. It must have been due to such humility.When Brady returned to the apartment, Adeena and Ruth were eating lunch.He sat down at the dining table and said with suppressed excitement, “Adeena, I met the project manager for the Winters Corporation today. They were actua

“If you don’t come down, then I’ll have to go up to you.”There was a hint of mischief in the man’s voice.“Don’t come up here!”Adeena quickly stopped him.She had scolded Ruth earlier during the day, yet she herself had a man visiting her in the middle of the night. How could she be qualified to teach Ruth a lesson in the future?“I’ll come down after getting changed. Wait five minutes.”She hung up, changed into gray loose-fitting casual clothes that covered every part of her skin.In the late night of spring, the temperature would be slightly lower. The evening wind blew at her face, messing up the hair she had just dried. Her hair also covered half her face, revealing only a pair of cold, bright eyes.Duke silently watched as she came closer and closer.She stopped when she was three paces away from him.He walked two steps closer to her, shortening their distance to only one step away from each other. “Mr. Winters, to what do I owe the pleasure?”Adeena’s voice held

After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and kissed her lips. Then, his lips traveled to her ears and neck...He possessed her with abandon, and in the dream, she did not resist at all...The thick fog was then stained with blood.“Mommy, Mommy...”A baby was crying loudly.The voice was piteous and frightened.“Baby! My baby!”Adeena screamed. She reached out to grab the child, but the baby drifted further and further away, slowly disappearing into the bloody fog...“Adeena, Adeena!”Brady shouted her name and shook her body vigorously.Adeena suddenly opened her eyes and sat up.She looked at Brady and Ruth, who were standing in front of her bed, then she turned to look out the dimly lit window.‘It was just a dream.’“Adeena, what nightmare did you have to frighten you like this?” Brady gave her a hand towel. “I heard you yelling ‘baby’. Was it a dream about a child?”Adeena used the hand towel to wipe her sweat-soaked hair. Her eyes were a little bleary. “I dre
