Adina was stunned,
‘I‘m not a small girl anymore I‘m twenty three, and a mother of four
‘An unidentified person is lurking in my yard outside, yet this man is.‘ Adina blushed as her pulse
raced,
She gritted her teeth, raised her gaze, and glared at Duke
She looked gorgeous. Her eyes reflected the chandelier in the living room, looking like a starry sky.
Duke could see his reflection through her dark pupils.
His arms turned warmer as he tightened his grip on her waist.
He lowered his head as his Adam‘s apple bobbed up and down. He was trying to resist his desire...
“You!”
Adina looked at him furiously. She wanted to say something, but no words came out,
She pushed his chest with all her strength, and finally broke free from the passionate embrace She was
a very restrained person, but at that moment, she was flabbergasted. She turned and said word by
word, “I‘ll give you a minute.”
Nas a
Duke had never encountered such a situation.
He felt like a shameless pervert.
He walked to the dining table and got a glass of cold water. The heat in his body finally subsided.
When he finally calmed down, he walked back to the window.
Adina had calmed down as well. She pursed her lips and spoke as if nothing had happened,” Let‘s go.
I‘ll send you off.”
She pushed open the door next to the window. The two of them walked through the veranda and
headed to the courtyard through the side door.
After walking further, as they approached the huge tree, Adina realized that more than one person was
hiding in the tree. What was more, they looked like they were skilled combatants.
She then whispered, “Can you take on one of them?” Duke nodded and replied, “You go in. I’ll fight the
two of them.” ‘There‘s no way I‘m going in. I can hold my own in a fight. I can easily take down one
person. Taking down two people might be a little challenging. It‘s just the children are asleep in the
house, and I don‘t want to take any risks. It‘s better to have Duke fight one of them.‘
Before she could respond, Duke suddenly grabbed her waist and stood in front of her.
Immediately afterward, he picked up the clothes pole at the corner of the mansion with his other hand
and slammed it towards the tree.
Leaves rustled down, and the two figures were forced to get down from the tree,
These were two men in black clothes. They were also wearing black masks on their faces. Duke and
Adina could only see their eyes.
Duke used the clothes pole as a weapon. He thrust it forward towards the right and left, hitting the two
men‘s knees. Both of them slumped on the ground limply.
Adina stepped forward, raised her feet, and stepped on the men‘s hands.
She was wearing high heels. She stepped on them so hard that the two men in black almost passed
out from the enormous pain. “Tell me, who sent you?” She glared at the two men as she asked sharply.
“We... We were just passing by!” One of the men grimaced in pain, yet he still refused to tell her the
truth. Duke swung the pole around as he smiled coldly.
