Chapter 540 “Come upstairs with me.”
Mrs. Winters carried Melody in one arm and held Harold‘s hand as she led the children upstairs.
“You will have plenty of chances to make it up for the kids, but not tonight.” Duke leaned in and
whispered into Adina‘s ear, “Tonight is our wedding night. Let‘s not waste the evening away.”
Adina immediately blushed.
He was such a flirt. How could he say something like that with other people present?
Mr. Brown took in their interaction, which he interpreted as them flirting. The old man narrowed his eyes
and said with a smile, “Mrs. Winters, perhaps you would like to go upstairs and take a look at the
bedroom first and see if there is anything else you need.”
Adina could feel her gut tighten when she heard the title, Mrs. Winters.
It suddenly dawned upon her that she and Duke really were married. She had become a part of the
Winters family.
“Come on, let‘s go upstairs and take a look.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDuke wrapped his arm around her slender waist and steered her upstairs.
When the door to the master bedroom was opened, the room was lavishly and romantically decorated ,
as far as the eyes could see. The bedsheets and quilts were white. The rug was white. The drapes
were white. All the dolls and decorations were white as well. Even “Happy Married Life” stickers were
pasted on the closet door.
This was clearly a wedding room.
Adina opened her mouth, but no words came out.
Mr. Brown smiled and said, “Mrs. Winters said Master and Madam are officially married today, so you
should spend your wedding night today. Please allow me to excuse myself. If there is anything you
need, just call me. I am always around.” He turned around and left the master bedroom. He even
considerately closed the door for them.
“This is too much.”
Adina spoke with difficulty. She felt her voice was a little hoarse and her body temperature was rising,
so she dashed to find some water to drink.
Duke cracked a smile as he watched her turn her back on him in a flustered manner. He said in a
hoarse voice,” Addy, I know what happened that night five years ago really traumatized you, but I am a
different person now
than I was five years ago. I won‘t force you to do anything you don‘t want to do again.”
“Is that a promise?”
Adina turned around and stared at him. Her eyes were bright and clear.
Duke was speechless.
He had only wanted to express his true feelings for her. Why did it feel like he had just shot himself in
the foot?
The room had been so romantically decorated. If he could hold himself back, he could have really been
a saint.
“You made a promise !” Adina‘s lips curled up, and she chuckled. “An honorable man should stand to
his promise. Since you‘ve promised that you won‘t force me, you mustn’t use force on me then.”
Duke‘s face darkened with frustration.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAdina could not help but laugh.
He was so arrogant, so this served him right. She purposefully did not give him what he desired. She
would like to see him hold himself back.
Looking at Adina‘s bright smile, Duke could feel his urge trying to burst through. He could not suppress
it, no matter how he tried.
But since he had already said he would not force her, he could never break his promise.
He said sullenly, “I will go take a shower first.”
He entered the bathroom, and the sound of running water could soon be heard.
Adina sat on the edge of the bed. Her heart started pounding again as she looked around the room that
had been decorated white.
She pulled open the door of the wardrobe and found that the other half of the wardrobe space was full
of women‘s clothes, including pajamas, home clothes, and gowns. It was obvious that these had been
personally prepared by Mrs. Winters.
It was probably one of the luckiest things in her life to have such a mother–in–law.
Adina chose a set of pajamas and took them out of the wardrobe. She planned to change into them
after the shower. Suddenly, a muffled grunt could be heard coming from the bathroom.
