“Hal, don‘t say that. There is no way Mr. Jones is a human trafficker.” Adina lifted the hem of her dress

as she walked over. She said in surprise, “I‘m sorry, Mr. Jones. The children don‘t know what they are

talking about. I hope they haven‘t caused you any trouble.”

“Mommy, he really is a human trafficker,” George frowned and said. “He tempted Melody to eat a

lollipop. Only a human trafficker would do something like that.”

Alden nodded. “We have already called the cops.” Dillon remained calm and said, “Ms. Daugherty, your

daughter is adorable , and I couldn‘t help but give her a lollipop. I really didn‘t mean any harm to her.”

“I know.” Adina nodded. She turned around and looked at her son. “Al, call off the police.”

Alden did not move.

This man was too suspicious. Everything about him screamed “bad guy“. Adina slapped her hand

against her forehead in resignation. “This is Mr. Jones. The eldest son of the Jones Corporation. The

Jones family is ranked among the top three in Sea City. How could Mr. Jones be involved in human

trafficking?”

“The eldest son of the Jones family?” Alden narrowed his eyes. “Oh. Is it the Ms. Jones who falsely

accused my mother of plagiarism before your sister?”

Dillon was speechless.

Why did he not know that Zhenny and Adina had such bad blood between them?

He was suddenly convinced that his appearance here was a mistake.

“Ms. Daugherty, this is just a misunderstanding.” Cold sweat rolled down Dillon‘s forehead. “I will buy

you dinner and apologize personally next time. I have some work to do. I should get going.” After he

said that, he turned around and left. He looked like he was running away.

The staff in the store were still talking about it. “I saw that guy acting suspiciously when he walked in,

but he had a gold card, so I couldn‘t say anything.”

“That‘s right. He has been staring at those kids after he walked in. Since he was wearing a suit, it didn‘t

occur to me that he could be a human trafficker.”

“Maybe he really is a human trafficker. We shouldn‘t have let him leave just now.”

“Ahem!” Adina cleared her throat. “That was Mr. Jones. He isn‘t a human trafficker. I know him. What

happened

today is just a misunderstanding.”

Since she already said so, the staff were in no place to discuss this any further.

Adina had lost her desire to try on wedding gowns.

Dillon‘s awkward and embarrassed look came to her mind. She could not figure out why he would want

to approach Melody.

Could it be that it was just as she guessed? That she and that man were related by blood? Then why

didn‘t he show up for the past twenty–three years, and only showed up right after Duke announced that

she would be Madam Winters?

Adina‘s lips curled up into a sneer. Then, she cast the matter aside.

After she settled the matter of her gowns, Adina dropped the kids back at the Winters family‘s house

before she drove to the hospital.

When she walked in, she saw Mr. Brown packing up things. Her face was filled with surprise. “Are you

transferring to another hospital?” Duke‘s lips curled up. “I‘m getting discharged today.”

Adina frowned. “The doctor said you can‘t be discharged until the fifth of next month. You should stay

here for a

week for observation. You‘d better listen to him and stay put.”

Duke knew that she would insist on him staying. He took out the examination checklist and

hospitalization slip from the bedside table before he said confidently, “The doctor has cleared me. I

shouldn‘t move around much after I go home. I just need to lie down and rest more. There is no need

for me to be hospitalized.”

His attending doctor, who was walking past the ward, paused, rendered speechless.

He was innocent! But he could not even fight back when he had been made a scapegoat.
