This was the first time the woman had spoken to him so nicely ever since learning his identity.
Earl acceded to her will. “Since it‘s been resolved, you can move back to the Winters family‘s mansion
tonight.”
Adina pulled open the car door and got into the car. Her hand paused as it fastened the seat belt, and
she said, “Wouldn‘t you look at the time now? If we pack up and move now, it‘ll be 11:00 pm after we
finish everything. It‘s fine if we adults stay up late, but the kids can‘t stay up like this. Just because they
are not your kids, it doesn‘t mean you cannot feel sorry for them.”
Her tone carried a hint of censure, and this was an emotion that fascinated Earl.
Earl could not describe how he felt. In short, he enjoyed listening to the long list of words that this
woman said to him.
He held the steering wheel and drove while he asked, “By the way, what did you talk to Catherine about
while you were alone with her?”
He was simply asking her casually, but Adina was suspicious of it, thinking that the question had been
framed differently. She dared not show too much emotion. She coldly snorted.” Now, you‘re even
asking about the conversation between women. Why are you so nosy?”
Earl chuckled. “Okay, I won‘t ask.”
“Come over tomorrow and help us move at noon,” Adina then said, “Don‘t come too early. We will still
be resting if it‘s too early. If you wake Mel up, she will make a fuss the entire day.”
“Okay, I‘ll do what you say.”
Earl held the steering wheel. Instead of looking at the road ahead, he gently glanced at the woman
beside him.
Such a quiet and serene moment was something that he had never experienced before.
He finally understood why many of his subordinates wanted to get out of this life and escape because
the ordinary life outside. was really too beautiful.
Even a woman‘s casual accusations gave him some comfort in love.
He wanted to make her move back today.
But he dared not push too hard.
This woman was finally treating him better now. She finally stowed away her ruthlessness, and she was
finally willing to talk to him calmly.
Very soon, the car stopped in front of the mansion.
Adina unfastened the seat belt, opened the car door, and got out. She stood at the door and waved.
“See you tomorrow.”
After she spoke, she turned around and wanted to enter the house.
Earl‘s heart fluttered. He also pushed open the door and got out.
He walked toward the woman. “Stop.”
Adina‘s body tensed up, and she froze.
The man plucked a thread out of her hair. “Okay, you can go inside now.”
“Thank you.”
Adina softly said. When she was about to turn around, Earl followed her again.
“Wait a minute.”
The man gulped.
He remembered how he had remained indifferent to this woman on the wedding night. He also had no
designs on sleeping with his brother‘s woman.
But in just one month, no, in less than ten days, he actually became so possessive of this woman.
He lowered his head, and his lips slowly approached her face.
Adina narrowed her eyes and immediately dodged him. She raised her hand and tidied his tie. “It‘s late
now. Quickly go back. Remember to come and pick us up tomorrow.”
