When she lived in Ascrialia four years ago, Earl had snuck into the manor in Ascrialia to escape the
limelight, and she took him in for a few days.
Catherine happened to come and visit the manor those days, and the two of them met officially.
Unexpectedly, Mabel saw Earl entering Catherine‘s room that night, and the two of them ended up on
the same bed.
Catherine was not even twenty years old at that time, so Mabel was truly shocked.
But she also dared not say anything when she thought about Earl‘s absurdity, and she also turned a
blind eye to this relationship
What she did not expect was that this relationship would actually make a scene in the media after so
many years, and it was gradually getting out of hand.
“There has been nothing between me and Catherine since a long time ago.” Earl pursed his lips. “As
long as Adina knows her place, she will be Mrs. Winters forever.”
After he spoke, he went upstairs.
Mabel‘s heart finally slowly sank in relief.
She turned around and looked out the window at the cold moonlight. Her eyes turned red again.She
murmured, “Duke, Addy and the kids will be fine. You can rest in peace now.”
The night passed silently. When the sky turned bright, Earl opened his eyes.
This was a habit that he had developed over the years, which allowed him to remain highly alert, no
matter how comfortable the environment he was in.
He woke up and got changed into a black suit. He shaved his black stubble in front of the mirror and
combed a hairstyle that he would not find annoying before he hummed a song and : walked down the
stairs.
He was clearly in a good mood.
Mr. Brown, who had avoided him over the past few days, also found the courage to come forward and
ask, “Master, what do you want to eat for breakfast?”
“Make one for each of the breakfasts that Adina and the kids usually eat. I‘ll bring it to them.” Earl sat at
the dining table and ordered.
Mr. Brown sighed in relief.
It looked like Master was ready to reconcile with Mdm. Winters.
The atmosphere at home would not be so tense and suffocating anymore.
“Okay, Master, I‘ll go and get ready now.”
Mr. Brown entered the kitchen and asked the cooks to start working.
An hour later, six delicate breakfast sets were prepared. After Earl finished his own set, he took the
breakfast and got into the car.
He stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped away from the Winters family‘s mansion.
He drove the car at top speed out of habit, and he glanced at the time along the way. It was just 9:00
am now. Would it be too early if he drove over now?
The woman had asked him not to go there too early.
Therefore , Earl reduced his speed again. It was a journey that took twenty minutes, but he arrived only
after he forcefully drove for more than thirty minutes.
This was the Xavier family‘s mansion. This was the mansion that Mdm. Xavier had given Adina
previously, and the mansion was taken care of very well. The courtyard was full of all kinds of blooming
flowers in the late autumn and early winter, and it looked very vibrant.
But the mansion was very quiet, as if it was still asleep.
Earl stroked his chin and chuckled. Those naughty kids actually loved to sleep so much.
But if they obediently called him Daddy in the future, he would not indulge them like this. Waking up
late was not a good habit.
Earl sat in the car while quietly waiting for the people in the mansion to wake up.
As time passed, he grew slightly impatient because of the wait.
His phone vibrated at this time. It was a call from Arden. “Boss, a major client came to the company. I
can‘t handle him. You have to come here in person.”
