Besides, there was a very thick callus on this person’s purlicue.He must have held a gun often.
Why would there be someone like this around Duke? A lot of speculations flashed in Adina’s mind, but
they lasted only a second or two.
She suppressed her thoughts, squatted down, and smiled gently as she said, "Georgie, go home with
Uncle Arden.Mommy will go back and keep you company at night."
George was really frightened.He realized that his dad was different from before.He also needed some
time to digest what he had just seen, so he nodded.
"Goodbye, Mommy.I’ll go back first."
He looked down and walked out of the office.
Adina only sighed in relief after she saw George leave.She sat on the couch and flashed Earl a bright
smile.
"What occasion are we attending later?"
"It’s a business event," Earl said indifferently.
"If you don’t want to go, I won’t force you."
"If I don't go, will you ask Catherine to accompany you? Or Ms.Clark?"
Adina rested her face on both of her hands, smiled faintly, and said, "There are rumors that we're
getting a divorce.I should attend the event with you to dismiss those voices.But I haven't bought a new
gown.Can you accompany me while I buy a dress and style up?"
Earl glanced at the time.It was 10:00 am.
There were two more hours before the banquet.He walked over and locked the silver safe deposit box
into the cabinet before he nodded and said, "Let’s go."
Adina held his arm as she wore a bright smile, but it was not a sincere smile.
The two of them walked into the elevator and left Winters Corporation together.
Following that, Earl drove her to a styling studio.
Adina pushed open the car door and got out.
"The styling studio you took me to last time was quite good.Why don’t we go there?" she said with a
smile.
"This one’s pretty good too." Earl walked in first.
Adina followed suit.She looked down slightly, and her smile finally faded.
After they entered, the attendant greeted them warmly.
"Mr.Winters, Mdm.Winters, welcome.Do you still require the stylist who served you previously?"
Adina sat on the couch and responded with an indifferent but elegant smile, "Sure, let her proceed."
But Earl’s gaze instantly darkened.
"Did you just test me?"
He stared daggers at Adina.
"I just wanted to know if there really was something wrong with your memory."
Adina curled her lips.
"You said you would love me for a lifetime, but you fell out of love with me after one month, and all your
promises became nothing.So, I was wondering if you had lost your memory.The results show that there
seems to be something wrong with your memory.We came to this styling studio a month ago, but you
don’t remember."
She shook her head before she flipped through the modeling album slowly.
Earl’s gaze was filled with hostility.
This woman was clearly more difficult to deal with than those kids.She was already suspicious of him.
It must have started when Catherine appeared, and Adina’s attitude toward him subtly changed.
Women were the most troublesome creatures! Earl massaged his forehead and seemed impatient.
Adina glanced at him and sneered before she stood up and went to pick out a gown with the stylist.
She did not take this event seriously, so she simply chose a random gown.She put on a long and tight
black silk dress.
Her hair was tied up high with two strands of her fringe falling along the side of her face.She looked
completely elegant and sexy.
Earl, who was sitting on the couch, raised his head as he saw her approaching.He suddenly envied
Duke for having a wife, four children, anda warm family.
Those were the things he never had in his life.
