She kept convincing herself to hold on, and after a few seconds, she made sure to tell him off in a shy
manner.
"You have Catherine’s perfume all over you now.There are even lipstick stains on your shirt.If you want
to touch me, you should take a shower first."
It turned out that she was still jealous.
Earl’s intense expression faded slightly.He smelled his body, and there was indeed a very strong scent
of perfume.He took off his coat, curled his lips, and said, "Wait for me.I'll take a shower first."
Adina lowered her head and collected the glass pieces on the ground.
"Take your time.Don’t fall in the bathroom again."
"am I that dumb?" Earl chuckled and entered the bathroom.
Adina lowered her head, and her tears almost fell.She quickly cleaned up the glass shards on the floor
and later reentered with a bottle of red wine.
When Earl stepped out of the shower, there were two glasses of red wine on the tea table in the
bedroom.
"Come and have a drink."
Adina flashed him a ghost of a smile.
"The night we received our marriage certificate, we drank like this too.Then..."
She looked down, and it was obvious from her side profile that she was blushing.Earl sat down as she
requested.
It had been Duke in the past, but it would be him every day from now on.
Only he would be in all her memories in the future.
Earl put his hand on Adina’s shoulder, gently squeezing and caressing it.
Adina tried her best to endure it.She smiled bashfully and said, "Duke, do you still remember the first
day we met?"
Earl was a little annoyed, and he drank half of the wine.
"Why do you keep mentioning things that have happened in the past? We should talk about the future."
"Okay, let’s talk about the future."
Adina continued to smile.
"Mom says she wants another granddaughter, but there are already four children in the family, and I
don’t think I want to have any more.What do you think?"
"Of course we should have more."
Earl seemed happy.
"We'll have a few more daughters like Mel, then the family will be livelier."
"I think it’s enough to have Mel," Adina said softly.
"No, of course it’s not enough."
Earl held her shoulders with his other hand.
No matter how adorable Melody was, she was not his biological daughter.He longed for light, and he
also longed to have his own kids.He slowly moved his lips closer.
Adina closed her eyes and looked extremely obedient.She silently waited for the kiss.She also secretly
counted down.
Bang!
Once she counted to eight, the man rolled over and fell on the couch.
Adina sighed in relief.She got up, pretended to be worried, and said, "Duke, Duke! Wake up! What’s
wrong? Are you drunk?"
She shouted several times, but the man did not move at all.
Adina raised her leg and kicked him away.
Then, the unconscious man rolled onto the carpet.She sneered, and her eyes were full of
indifference.She took out a flashlight from the drawer on the bedside table before she squatted down
and looked at the man’s face carefully.
His familiar features were so beautiful that she could not find any trace of plastic surgery.Adina was a
little frustrated.Had she guessed wrongly? Did Duke really have a split personality disorder? She was
not willing to give up.She took a few close-up pictures of his face with her phone, uploaded them to a
private cloud album, and deleted the photos from her phone.
