Adina narrowed her eyes. She lifted her leg and kicked up the steel pipe from the ground before she
held it with her hand and used it as a weapon.
She thought that Earley’s subordinates had come over. When she saw the two kids who appeared at
the entrance of the warehouse, she instantly sighed in relief.
Then, her indifferent face looked stern. “Why are the two of you here?”
“Mommy, I’m glad that you’re fine!” Alden immediately rushed over and held Adina’s waist tightly.
His slightly mature face was full of worries and thankfulness.
Adina’s heart melted. “Alden, I’m fine. Nothing will happen to me. Don’t worry.”
Alden held her tightly, and he gloomily remained silent.
George walked over, pursed his pink lips, and said softly, “Alden felt something happened to you and
Dad, so he found out your location. Luckily, nothing serious happened.”
Tag Gener do this again. The two of you are just kids. How could you run out of the house in the middle
of the night? I know you’re smart, but no matter how smart you are, you can only manage so much
against vicious adults.”
Alden schooled his expression. He raised his head and said, “Mom, we didn’t come out alone. We
brought a few bodyguards.” When Adina looked over, she indeed saw four tall and muscular
bodyguards standing beside the car. “Is… Dad alright?”
George looked at Duke, who was unconscious, and he asked softly. Adina felt grateful for a moment.
These two kids did not forget their own dad.
She said in a seemingly relaxing tone, “Your dad is just slightly injured. It’s no big deal. Georgie, ask
the bodyguards to come over and help bring your dad into the car.”
The four bodyguards walked in from outside the warehouse, carefully carrying Duke while walking
outside.
When Adina walked to the entrance, she stopped walking and cast a glance at the back.
The office was less than one hundred meters away from the southwest of the warehouse. Earley
fainted due to being beaten by her, so he should still be in that office now.
She hesitated for less than a second before she coldly said, “The two of you, go to the room at the
southwest. There is an unconscious man there. Tie him up and take him back with us.”
The two bodyguards immediately went over and looked for the person after they received the order.
Three minutes later, the bodyguards came back. “Miss Daugherty, there is no one in the room.”
Adina frowned.
It looked like Earley had already run away.
She did not know what kind of grudge this man and Duke had. The only thing that she worried about
was that Earley would come back again and harm the kids.
She pursed her lips and said, “Let’s go to the hospital first.”
The bodyguard drove the car to the private hospital that Winters Corporation had invested in. Adina
took the kids out of the car before she said softly, “Georgie, Alden, you go back to the Winters family
with the bodyguards first. I’ll be here with your dad in the hospital tonight.”
“No!”
Alden refused without even thinking about it.
He wanted to accompany mom and protect her. He could
How could Adina not understand Alden’s thoughts? She stroked her son’s soft hair before she said
softly, “Let two of the four bodyguards you brought stay to protect me, and I’ll be fine. Alden, you have
to go back and take care of Mel for me. If you stay in the hospital, Mel will be lost without the both of
us. Won’t she be so scared that she will cry? Alden, you’re a good boy. Go back with Georgie and
accompany Mel, okay?”
Alden pursed his lips tightly, and he nodded only after a long while. “I’ll come to you tomorrow
morning.”
Adina looked at George again and softly said, “Georgie , you’re the eldest brother. Can you take good
care of your brothers and sister for me tonight?”
George nodded strongly. “I will, Mommy. Also, I won’t tell Mel that dad is injured. Don’t worry, Mommy.”
Adina touched her sons’ heads before she ordered the bodyguards to bring the kids back to the
Winters family
