Mr. Brown opened his mouth several times, but he did not know how to answer.
Adina spoke as she washed the dishes. “Dew is his birth mother. It won’t do him any good if word gets
out about how he’s treating her.”
“Well, Young Master Harold is still young. He doesn’t understand what a birth mother means.” Mr.
Brown explained. “Young Master Harold has always disliked her ever since he could remember. He has
never called her mom. Even so, Young Master George has never called her mom either. He did call her
mother, which comes across as rather impersonal.”
Adina lowered her eyes and said, “George is a child with self-restraint and propriety. If he is willing to
call Dew mother, that means he acknowledges her.
“Young Master George is good to his mother indeed. He prepares all sorts of gifts for Ms. Dew every
year. This villa has a room on the second floor that is filled with clothes, bags, and shoes that Young
Master George bought for Ms. Dew.” On that note, Mr. Brown let out another sigh. “However, Ms. Dew
angered Master Duke last time. All the things in that room have been thrown away.”
“Master Duke dislikes Ms. Dew, Young Master Harold rejects her too, but Young Master George has
always respected his mother. Although Ms. Dew is not allowed to step foot in Winters family’s house
again, Young Master George has always paid attention to any news regarding her. Ms. Dew’s
participation in the piano tour abroad this time was also as per Young Master George’s arrangement.”
Age had loosened Mr. Brown’s tongue. He casually spoke about some of the things George had done
to Dew.
The corner of Adina’s lips slowly curled into a sneer.
George did care a lot about Dew, his mother.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have deliberately set up a trap waiting for her to walk into it.
George went to great lengths to deal with her. Would Alden and Melody become his targets, too?
Adina pursed her lips. Her hand that was chopping the vegetables paused.
Cooking was the easiest thing for her, but at that moment, she did not feel quite up to it.
Just then, a car drove in from outside the house. Mr. Brown’s knitted brows smoothed.” Master is
home.”
The old man waved to a few other cooks in the kitchen. “Leave and work on something else.”
Leave the kitchen to Master and Ms. Adina. He could see that Ms. Adina was quite special to Master.
This was the first time he had seen Master show great interest and patience to a woman.
Adina slowly chopped the vegetables. The next moment, she heard the sound of leather shoes
stepping on the ground. Duke Winters had walked in.
She lowered her eyes and continued to work on the task at hand.
“I’ll cut the vegetables.” Duke Winters walked over and took the kitchen knife from her hand. “Look at
these potatoes. You call this dicing?” He asked in a low voice. As he spoke, his black eyes fell on
Adina’s face. Adina raised her head and looked at the man before her.
He was wearing a black business suit. His powerful aura was spreading all over the room. A man like
this would actually cook in the kitchen. He had probably never stepped foot in the kitchen before this.
So, who did he go into the kitchen for?
Harold? Melody? Or for her?
Adina shoved down the emotions that inexplicably emerged as she said indifferently, “I was just
chatting with Mr. Brown.” Duke’s lips curled up a little. “About what?” “About Harold and George’s
mother.” Duke’s fingers paused immediately. The three-day deadline had not yet expired. He had
planned to tell her about it tonight or tomorrow
However, she seemed to have found out already now. Duke put down the kitchen knife.
