Buzz!
Her phone suddenly vibrated.
Adina cast a glance. It was a call from Duke.
This phone call knocked Adina in the head like a hammer.
If she hit Adina to death, she would not be able to escape the law. What about Alden?
Alden did not have a father since he was born. If she was jailed, Alden would lose his mother.
There were tons of methods to take revenge.
She must not kill anyone by herself! Adina made a U-turn. Her car turned to the road at the side, and it
passed by along Dew’s shoulder.
Dew was shocked. She staggered in her high heels, and she fell down on the roadside. It was only
when Adina drove the car to the back of the villa of the Daugherty family that she stepped on the brake
and stopped the car. She breathed out heavily before she picked up the phone that kept vibrating. “Ms.
Daugherty, you must be really busy. You only answered my call after so long.” Duke’s sarcastic and
impatient voice came from the other end of the call. Adina slowly asked, “Mr. Winters, may I help you?”
If Duke did not make this call, she might have already done something dumb, so she did not mind the
sarcasm in Duke’s voice.
“Ms. Daugherty, haven’t you realized that you lost something?”
Duke coldly asked.
Adina held her car key, pushed open the car door, and said with a deep voice, “Mr. Winters, I’m very
busy. I don’t have the time to play a dumb riddle with you. If you have something to say, please just say
it.” “No matter how busy you are, you shouldn’t neglect your kid, right?” Duke’s voice was colder than
hers. “Your daughter has been missing for two hours. As a mother, how can you still be in the mood to
work?” Adina stopped walking. “How did you know that my daughter has gone missing?”
“She’s with me. Come over now.”
Duke directly hung up.
Adina could not believe it.
Melody was with Duke?
What was going on?
And Dew?
Adina got in the car and slowly drove past the entrance of the villa of the Daugherty family. She was in
time to see Dew getting up from the floor. “A mad person drove speedily in front of my house, and they
nearly killed me. I sprained my ankle. It’s so painful. We’ll go shopping next time…”
Adina saw that Dew walked into the villa with a limp.
The servants in the villa looked normal, and nothing strange was seen.
So, she really misunderstood Dew today.
Adina stepped on the accelerator. Fifteen minutes later, the car stopped in front of Winters Corporation.
She looked so gorgeous, and everyone in the circle knew that she was the most beautiful woman in
Sea City. When she came over this time, the receptionist just let her in.
She walked to the door of the CEO’s office in her high heels. The door was not closed, and she could
see Melody sitting on the couch through the gap. The little girl had just taken a shower, and wet strands
were on her forehead as Duke wiped her hair with a towel.
This man looked cold and overbearing, but his move was extremely gentle. Melody closed her eyes,
and she looked very sleepy.
Adina’s tension was finally relieved. She gently pushed open the door, and the two’people on the couch
raised their heads and looked at her at the same time.
Duke casually threw the towel that he had used to wipe Melody’s hair before he curled his lips with
displeasure. “Have you done your work, Ms. Daugherty?” Adina ignored his sarcasm. She walked to
her daughter, bent down, and lifted her up. “Mel, are you okay?” The little girl blinked, and she looked
dumbfounded.
