When they arrived at the entrance, Mrs. Cook asked softly, “Louis, who is that lady?”
“She is Boss’ business partner,”Louis said formally.
“ Boss has some official business to discuss with Ms.Daugherty, so he doesn't have time to talk with
you. Mrs. Cook, it’s best that you head home.” Mrs. Cook turnedaround and glanced a final time at the
dining hall before leaving in resignation. After her silhouette vanished from sight, Adina asked, "Is she
the one who claims to be your mother?" Terry nodded.
“Thus far, I don't know what her true motive is. I'll neglect her for the time being. She'll naturally reveal
her true colors by the time we are done with this mess." Adina was relieved as long as Terry was wary
of the Cook family. ! She pursed her lips.
“Be careful with everything you do. If you need my help, just let me know. I will take them home now."
The children, who were done with their food now, rose from their seats obediently and stood beside
Adina, one on each side of her. Duke took out his phone.
“Give me your number so that we can keep in touch." Adina nodded, and they exchanged phone
numbers. She gave Duke a final glance before leaving with the children.
Terry walked to the entrance and watched them leave his mansion. He waved goodbye to them. Blake
was his confidant and had gone through the darkness moments and various hardships with him. Duke
ordered, “Assign two reliable bodyguards to protect them. If they find anything unusual, report to me."
Blake nodded.
“Noted!”
“Boss, I have news!” The bodyguard charged in from the entrance.
“Half an hour ago, Elder Maurice and Elder Dorien went to an abandoned warehouse in the suburbs. I
kept an eye on them and noticed that there were a large number of weapons inside the warehouse."
A chilling smile appeared on Terry's lips. Elder Dorien had misappropriated billions of dollars over the
years. He spent the money on weapons. Terry had known this. He wondered where the weapons were
being hidden. Elder Dorien had hidden a small part of his weapons in the underground basement of his
mansion. However, there were very few of them. He hid most of his weapons somewhere else. He hid
them in an abandoned warehouse - the most dangerous yet secured place.
“Send a few men over there. I wonder what surprise Elder Dorien and Elder Maurice have in store for
me." Terry walked out coldly. Meanwhile, Adina returned to her mansion with her children. Flint looked
anxious when he received them.
“Are you alright? Are you hurt?" Harold smiled. “I'm fine. Melody and I are full. We ate a lot! We're very
happy.”
“Naughty boy!” Flint scowled.
“I'll slap your buttocks if you sneak out with Melody again!”
"Well, Mommy has taught me a lesson already. I won't sneak out to look for Daddy again in the future,”
Harold said with a grin.
“Daddy said we can just give him a call if we want to meet him, anyway. He'll send someone here to
fetch us, or he'll personally come and visit us.” Flint was stunned. He turned to Adina.
“Is that true?" Adina's gaze softened. She spoke gently, "He's Duke. Regardless of hirn losing his
memory, he'll always be their father.”
