Chapter 996
Unexpectedly...
Duke pursed his lips and softly said, “I‘m sorry, Ms. Willis. Can you please step out? I’ll ask Jake to
bring you out for breakfast.”
His voice also sounded much softer.
Ruth once more thought that it was right for her to come over.
She would be elated if this man with a powerful aura could keep talking to her so gently.
While she was immersed in her imagination, she saw Duke turn around and look at Adeena who was a
step behind her. His voice was extremely soft. “Do you consider it polite if I speak like this?”
Ruth froze.
She had searched for a lot of information on this man last night. No matter what environment he was in,
he never showed such a side.
Now, he was as smooth as water, and his voice was as soft as a marshmallow.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt looked like he was waiting for Adeena to compliment him.
Ruth had goosebumps.
Why did she feel like a third wheel?
“Ms. Ruth Willis , please come this way.” Jake gestured.
Ruth was shocked, scared, and reluctant, but she went out with complicated emotions.
The room door was gently closed.
“Mr. Winters, I agree to be your secretary,” Adeena said indifferently . “But shouldn‘t there be a time
period for the work contract?” “Three months,” Duke answered nonchalantly . “You‘ll be free after three
months.”
“Okay, let‘s sign the contract.”
Adeena took out the work contract that she had prepared and directly signed her name.
Duke nodded and wrote down his name at the bottom of the page. His writing was delicate and
energetic.
There were two copies of the contract, and each of them kept one.
“Since it‘s a deal, l‘ll start on the first of next month.” Adeena smiled faintly.
Duke took a look at the date. It was only the 15th. In other words, he still needed to wait for half a
month to be with her every day.
It was so long that he could not wait any longer.
“Mr. Winters, the start date is written on the contract. You didn‘t read it carefully.”
Adeena raised her chin slightly, and a hint of pride flashed in her eyes.
Duke chuckled slightly.
Only his Addy could outsmart him.
Alright, it was just half a month. He had waited for four years, so he did not mind the time.
“See you in half a month, Mr. Winters.”
Adeena nodded before she turned around and left the suite.
Duke quickly caught up to her. “Since you‘re here so early, I guess you haven‘t had breakfast yet. Let
me bring
you—”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“That‘s fine, Mr. Winters. I‘m very busy,” Adeena said, seeming uninterested . “I‘ll eat with you after I
become your secretary.”
She walked past the corridor and into the elevator without turning back. Soon, the elevator doors
blocked Duke‘s sight.
He massaged his forehead.
Addy was the same as she was four years ago. It was still
incredibly hard to get close to her.
But that was fine. He had a lot of time to do it slowly. This time, he would not let Addy disappear from
his sight.
Adeena went downstairs and spotted Ruth having breakfast with Jake by the lobby.
She walked over, sat down, and also ordered a breakfast
set.
Jake quickly stood up. “Mdm... Ms. Willis, why aren‘t you eating with Mr. Winters?”
“Why? Should I accompany him?” Adeena smiled nonchalantly and asked in return.
Jake silently muttered to himself.
Mdm. Winters had lost her memories, but her fierce expression was no different from four years ago.
He should question her less so that he could live longer.
