“Alden is just the beginning. If you continue defying me, I will have you send all four of your children
away. But I care about you so much. How could I let you suffer? Meet me at the Winters family‘s
mansion now.” Adina was completely stunned. The Winters family‘s mansion... where the children
were... Why would Earl be there? Before she could turn around and say anything...
“Adina, you better not tell Duke about my whereabouts, otherwise, I will chop off Alden‘s hand and
send it to you as a gift.” Adina shuddered.
She did not doubt that Earl would do such a thing. She stood up abruptly. Duke rushed to hold her by
the waist. “Addy, what‘s wrong?”
“I‘m going out, don‘t follow me.” Adina put on a downy jacket, took the car keys, and left. Duke‘s eyes
narrowed. He waited for Adina‘s car to drive out a hundred meters first before he began tailing her.
He made a call as he drove. “Have more people come with me.”
“Mr. Winters, Earl‘s trail disappeared near the Winters family‘s mansion.” Duke stared at the familiar
road outside. This was the only path to the Winters family‘s mansion.
?
For the past few days, his people had turned Sea City upside–down looking for Earl, so there was no
way he could hide in the city. So was his plan now to hide in the most dangerous place?
With his mother there, Earl certainly could stay hidden.
However, he would never give Earl another chance to go into hiding again.
?
Duke sped up, nervously trailing behind Adina‘s car... Adina gripped the steering wheel. Earl‘s voice
was constantly ringing in her mind. Before this, he only repeated short commands. But this time, Earl
was talking nonstop.
“Duke is truly amazing, he must have searched through every nook and crane for me, but finding me
won‘t be that easy. But I can‘t remain in Sea City any longer. Addy, come with me. I‘ll wait for you at the
Winters family‘s mansion. Let‘s leave together.
“I may be a murderer, an arsonist, and have done all kinds of wrongdoing, but my love for you is not
inferior to Duke‘s in the slightest.”
Upon hearing this, Adina only felt nauseous.
She must have done something terrible in her past life to have such a deranged person become so
obsessed with her. Her car was going faster and faster, leaving Duke far behind. She braked the car
suddenly and stopped right outside the entrance to the Winters family‘s mansion.
At that moment in the Winters family‘s mansion, Mabel had gone back to her room to change when she
saw someone leaning on the balcony.
Her voice was tense yet excited, and tears immediately began to flow from her eyes. When she saw
that her other son was still alive, she became the happiest person alive. She quickly walked toward him
and dragged Earl inside from the balcony.
“Why are you back? Does Duke know you‘re here?”
“Of course he does, the whole world is looking for me now.” Earl rubbed his chin nefariously.
” Are you going to hand me over?” Mabel quickly looked behind her, then hurriedly shut the door.
“Earl, I won‘t say anything else regarding this feud between you two. I only wish for you and Duke to
live your lives happily. You need to leave Sea City at once, and never come back, alright?”
“Having experienced what it was like to walk in the light, do you think I would return to the darkness?”
Earl smiled softly.
“Between me and Duke, you can only choose one of us.”
