Semua Bab Madam Winters’s Fight For Her Children: Bab 431 - Bab 440

Earley stood up and extended his right hand. “Ms. Daugherty, I hope we will have happy cooperation in the future.”Adina also got up and moved her chair aside. She shook hands with Earley. “Mr. Earley Wynters, may we have a happy cooperation as well.”When her hand touched Earley’s hand, she experienced a shiver that rose up her spine from her fingertips. The air was frigid. It was far more frigid than the cold air from a refrigerator.She only lightly touched Earley’s hand in a symbolic gesture and quickly withdrew.Earley pulled his hand back and inserted it into the suit pant pocket. He said coldly, “There will be a celebration banquet tomorrow night after today’s tender conference. Don’t forget to attend, Ms. Daugherty.”After saying that, without waiting for Adina to answer, he ordered his secretary to send Adina and Serene out.When they got outside and the sunlight shone down their shoulders, Serene let out a sigh of relief, “Ms. Daugherty, don’t you think Mr. Earley Wynte

Duke glanced over with a cold gaze. “Just eat whatever that’s available. Why ask for so much?”Harold fell silent.When Daddy got a new son, he forgot about his previous son. He was very harsh.Duke did not bother to look at Harold. Instead, he bent down to look at Melody. “Tell Daddy. What do you want to eat for dinner?”Harold was speechless.It felt like another arrow shooting into his chest. He felt so sad.After asking Melody, Duke looked at Adina again. “What do you want to eat?”Adina had no particular preference for food. She said with a light voice, “Whatever, just eat whatever you can cook.”Duke let out a sigh of relief.If this woman proposed eating braised meat or something else, he would be in a difficult situation.However, steamed fish seemed to be a little difficult for him. But because all that was required was to steam the fish, he appeared to be able to manage it too.Duke entered the kitchen with a heavy heart.Mr. Brown knew Duke was going to cook, and

Melody also drank half a glass of wine. Her fair face instantly blushed like a red apple. When Adina saw the kids drinking wine, she found it inappropriate if she did not drink any.She raised her wine glass. When she was about to drink, Alden reached out to stop her. “Mom, I’ll drink for you.”Duke frowned. “You’re just a kid. How could you drink wine? Let me do it.”He grabbed the wine glass.Mr. Brown quietly nudged Duke’s shoulder. “Master, Ms. Daugherty wants to toast to you. How can you drink on her behalf?”Duke seemed to have suddenly realized what was going on.“Young Master Alden, you’d better not drink red wine. This wine is very strong, so children can’t handle it.” Mr. Brown took the wine glass from Duke before he passed it to Adina again. “Ms. Daugherty, you can just take a sip as a formality.”Adina toasted to Duke before she took a sip of the wine.This wine was full of flavor. The taste lingered on the lips and tongue. She could not help but take another sip.

George held Alden’s hand. “Let’s go. I’ll take you to my room. I have many good things in my room. I believe you’ll like them!”Harold looked around. “Mel, go with them to George’s room. I have something to do.”He smirked to himself before he turned around and went to the courtyard.…… Under the cook’s guidance, Duke finally made some tea.He held a cup of tea and knocked on the guest room door. He knocked on the door for a while, but the room remained silent.He turned the doorknob and pushed it open.Then, his breathing stopped.Adina had taken off her outerwear and was strewn out on the bed. She was wearing a chiffon shirt. Her sleeves were rolled up, showing her jade-like arms.She had taken some wine. When the alcohol dissipated off her body, her cheeks blushed like a glorious sunset.The redness extended from her cheeks to her neck, and her collar bones glowed pink.The blanket covered her chest, and it went up and down along her breath.He immediately looked away a

Duke pursed his lips awkwardly.If Harold had not accidentally done something that actually pleased him, he would have made the brat stand at least two hours in military posture.“Ahem! He’s my son. I won’t teach him a lesson.” Duke secretly did not mean what he said, “I have been very busy in the past four years, so I neglected the two of them. If I have done anything wrong, just point it out to me.”Adina was a little stunned.This man had really put himself at a very low position, which left her completely at a loss for words.He was willing to let George and Harold stay in her house.He was willing to listen to her opinions about the kids’ education.He had always respected her.But she… She would feel jealous and worried when she saw Melody being too close to him.When he suggested letting the kids stay in the Winters family, she had turned him down without hesitation.She even thought of sneaking out of the country with the kids one day and staying far away from Sea C
