She had been drugged as soon as she stepped in, and the man had touched her body. If she had not
woken up, she would have been defiled.
“Mr. Winters, you have really strange tastes,” Adeena said sarcastically. “You actually came up with
such a chain of schemes for a woman like me.”
“Ms. Willis, you might be overthinking this.” Duke smiled indifferently. “You‘re not worth me rushing all
the way from Sea City. But I do think you‘re fine, so I‘m interested in you. If you‘re willing to be my
secretary, perhaps I can consider sparing the Willis family.” ”
Adeena pinched her fingers. She had slapped this man hard just now, and she could still see the faint
fingerprints on his cold face.
With his status, he could exact revenge on her mercilessly.
Yet, he did not So, he should be interested in her. While he had asked her to be his secretary, her role
would probably not be limited to that. Adeena pursed her lips. “I need to think about it.” “Sure.” Duke
smiled nonchalantly. “I‘ll leave Cloud City tomorrow night. Please make your decision before I leave.”
Adeena then turned around and left the room without even bidding goodbye.
Duke touched his thin lips.
The sweet taste of her lips was apparently still present.
‘Addy, I‘ll get you to marry me again.‘
As soon as Adeena went out, Kendry and Ruth approached her. “Deena, how did it go? What did Mr.
Winters say?” Kendry looked anxious.
“You... Deena... what‘s wrong with you?” He stared at Adeena‘s messy makeup, slightly swollen lips,
and the faint kiss marks on her neck He was a man, so he could imagine what had happened in the
room at a glance. No wonder she only stepped out after an hour.
“Deena, you didn‘t...” Ruth covered her lips.
“Did you sleep with Mr. Winters?” Adeena glanced at her and indifferently said, “He drugged me.” That
was the price she paid for the Willis family, so she was not going to cover it up. She would slowly repay
their kindness toward her, but she needed to let them know what she had sacrificed.
“Are you joking?” Ruth could not believe it. “Why would someone like Mr. Winters drug you?” During
the hour she waited outside the room, she searched insanely for information on Winters Corporation‘s
CEO. The first news that popped up was about Mr. Winters‘ marriage to the most beautiful woman in
Sea City, but a mistress came between them only a month after their wedding.
Therefore, news about their divorce kept coming up in her search results.
Four years ago, Adina Daugherty, who was Mdm. Winters, stopped showing up in public. Various
rumors revealed that the Winters couple had gotten divorced, and Adina had gone overseas in anger.
She never returned anymore.
Duke had four kids, but that did not stop countless women from wanting to marry him.
No woman would not fall for such a handsome man from a wealthy family.
Ruth‘s heart pounded quickly. She had love at first sight when she saw him.
She wore a mocking smile and said, “Deena, let‘s be honest. You actually like Mr. Winters, so you did
everything in your power to seduce him to sleep with you, right?”
“Don‘t speculate about others.” Adeena could not be bothered to explain things to Ruth. She turned
around and looked at Kendry. “Dad, Mr. Winters says he‘ll spare the Willis family as long as I agree to a
request.” Kendry was happy, and he immediately asked, “What‘s the request?”
