Chapter 576
“I‘m really busy.” Earl pursed his lips. “I need to take a flight to Europe for
a business trip this afternoon, and I’ll only be back half a month later.”
Adina was stunned.
He was going out for a business trip on the first day of their marriage?
It was not that he could not go, but this man would not do such a thing with the way he felt about her.
“What would you like from Europe? I‘ll bring it back for you.” Earl touched his thin lips. He had a chronic
smoking habit, and he wanted to smoke again at that moment.
Adina pursed her lips. “If Mel finds out that you’ll be on
a business trip for half a month, she‘ll be very sad.”
Mel?
The image of a little girl popped up in his head.
He had only seen the little girl from a distance. He had not officially met the girl after becoming Duke.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEarl smiled faintly and said, “I‘ll bring her a present so that she won‘t be sad.” He suddenly stood up. “O
kay, I‘ll get ready to go to the airport. Be careful on your way home.”
He walked out of the meeting room before he ordered his
assistant and secretary to prepare some things with a cold gaze.
Adina stood in the corridor outside the office, and the look in her eyes was profound.
Did he not care about her anymore after he obtained her?
Or did he never care about her?
Perhaps he only married her because of the kids?
Adina clenched her fists, and the mocking smile on her face grew wider.
Before she turned eighteen, she had treated
the Daugherty family sincerely, only for them to totally hurt her.
Now that she was twenty–three, she ended up believing
in Duke‘s sweet talk as well. She was truly dumb.
She should have realized that she
was just fresh meat to Duke. How could she… allow herself to be carried away?
Adina took the elevator downstairs with a blank gaze and sat quietly in the car alone for a long time.
She should not be too pessimistic now.
The Winters Cemetery had just caught on fire yesterday, and there were many things that needed to be
handled in Winters Corporation, so it was normal for Duke to pay her less attention.
Their life should be back to normal once he returned from his business trip.
Adina then drove back to the Winters family‘s mansion.
Everything at home was normal.
The children were already awake. George and Alden were reading, while Harold and Melody were sittin
g on the floor and assembling some toys.
“Mommy, you‘re back!”
Harold was the first to rush over. He climbed onto Adina‘s body and gave her a big kiss on the cheek.
However, he felt guilty at the next moment
as he took a peek behind Adina. Then, he patted his chest and spoke as if he was scared. “Luckily, Da
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmd didn‘t come back with you, or else, he‘ll beat me up again.”
Every time after he kissed his mom, his dad would look at him as though he wanted to kill him.
Melody also looked past Adina. “Mommy, why didn‘t Daddy come home?”
Before Adina could speak, George calmly said, “Dad went
to Europe for a business trip. There‘s something wrong with a big project there, so he needs to go over
and handle it.”
There was a glint in Adina‘s eyes. “Georgie, did your dad call and tell you?”
George shook his head. “I was working earlier, and my assistant told me that Dad just checked
in half an hour ago. He‘ll arrive at his destination tonight. But…”
He
frowned and said, “Winters Corporation‘s factory in Europe is in the countryside, and the signal there is
n‘t very good. We
might not be able to contact him for a long time.”
Melody‘s eyes became teary. “But I miss Daddy. I want to call
him.”
