“Stay away from him.” Duke held the steering wheel tightly as he slowly replied.
Earley Wynters was Earl Winters.
He was Duke’s biological twin brother. Duke softly said, “Earley Wynters is a very dangerous person.
Nothing good comes to those who approach him.”
Adina looked at the person who was driving.
Why did she feel that something was off with Duke’s emotions when she brought Earley up?
That supported her theory even more.
Duke drove the car slowly on the road at night and stopped in front of the Winters family villa in less
than twenty minutes.
Duke got out of the car first and pulled open the passenger door for Adina like a gentleman. When the
two of them walked up to the mansion’s door, all their four children rushed over.
“Mommy, you’re finally back. I miss you so much!” Harold was always the most excited kid. He ran into
Adina’s arms and instantly climbed onto her body.
Melody used to be a shy and reserved girl, but she had also become mischievous due to Harold’s
influence. She learned how to climb onto Adina’s body from him.
Adina carried a thirty-kilogram kid in each arm, and they were heavy.
Two more kids looked at her expectantly with their dark eyes.
“Your mom can’t carry you. I’ll hold you.”
Duke squatted down and waved at George and Alden. George awkwardly took a step back. “I’m a big
boy now. I don’t need a hug.”
“I don’t need one either,” Alden said indifferently.
Duke found himself speechless.
Okay, these four kids did not need their father anyway.
“Daddy, hug me!”
Melody stretched out her arms.
Duke’s poor heart was finally comforted. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Winters walked out of the house at the
next second. She smiled and said, “Mel, come here. Grandma wants you to pick a necklace.”
The girl’s eyes lit up, and she rushed into Mrs. Winters’ arms.
Mrs. Winters carried Melody with a smile and said, “Addy, Mel and I just hit it off. Let her sleep with me
today.”
As she said that, she carried Melody into the living room regardless of whether Adina agreed or not.
Adina was stunned.
Was Melody not autistic? With the exception of her dad, mom, and brothers, did she not dislike others
getting close to her? How did she get on with Mrs. Winters so quickly?
Soon, Adina understood the reason.
She saw Mr. Brown and five servants step out of the collection room on the upper floor with many
wooden boxes in their hands. Then, they opened the boxes and placed them in front of Melody.
The boxes contained either diamond necklaces, pearl earrings, or jade wristlets. They looked like they
were worth at least a few million dollars. However, those items were like toys in Melody’s hands. Once
she got bored after playing with them for a while, she simply threw them away. Mr. Brown seemed hurt
as he went to pick them up and put them back in the boxes. But Mrs. Winters did not seem to be
bothered.
“You don’t like these either? It’s okay, I still have a lot of shiny jewelry in the collection room. I’ll get
Papa Brown to take them down. You can bring whichever one you like home.” The corners of Adina’s
lips twitched.
