“Mr. Winters wants me to be his secretary.”
Adeena pursed her lips.
She knew the meaning behind the request, so she believed that Kendry would too.
She wanted to know what the Willis family thought about
Kendry paused for a while.
The moment he saw his foster daughter‘s gaze, he understood her intention of telling him everything.
She was trying to see if the Willis family was worthy of her sacrifice.
“Deena, you‘re our foster daughter. You‘re also Ms. Willis like Ruth. Pushing our daughters out for
honor is something the Willis family won‘t do.” Kendry sighed.“ We‘ll go back and discuss this with your
grandma. There has to be another solution.”
“I‘ll do it!” Ruth suddenly said. “I can be Mr. Winters‘ secretary.”
“Stop talking nonsense!” Kendry said coldly.
“I‘m serious!” Ruth anxiously replied. “Deena‘s adopted, so we naturally can‘t let her make such a huge
sacrifice.
But I‘m a member of the Willis family. As long as I can help my family, I‘m willing to even sacrifice my
life.” Adeena and Kendry were speechless. Kendry had watched his daughter grow up, so he knew
what was on her mind.
She must have fallen for Mr. Winters‘ good looks. “We‘ll go back and discuss this with Grandma first.”
Adeena knew what Ruth was thinking too. She pursed her lips indifferently and walked out first.
Kendry grabbed his daughter‘s arm. “Ruth, listen. Do not get involved. This is none of your business!”
“Why is it none of my business? I‘m your daughter. I‘m obligated to do something for the family!” Ruth
said righteously. “Besides, Dad, aren‘t you always telling me that the Willis family owes Adeena? If
that‘s the case, just let me replace her this time to repay her kindness.” Kendry was furious thanks to
his daughter. “You mustn‘t say that to Adeena.”
Adeena had always thought that she owed the Willis family for saving her life.
In reality, the Willis family had used Adeena‘s blood to save Ruth. They even caused the death of
Adeena‘s baby. It was likely that only Adeena could solve the Willis family‘s crisis this time.
“Dad, don‘t stop me!” Ruth quickly caught up to Adeena. “Deena, hurry up and tell me what you
discussed with Mr. Winters.”
Adeena got into the back passenger seat, while Ruth quickly hopped into the car as well. She kept
hounding Adeena with questions.
“After he drugged you, did he do anything over the top?” Adeena faked a smile. “You seem to be very
concerned about Mr. Winters and me.”
“Deena, he must have had bad intentions when he asked you to be his secretary.” There was a glint in
Ruth‘s eyes. “You‘re so pretty, so it‘s devastating for you to be with a divorced man with kids. But I‘m
different. I’m a member of the Willis family, so it‘s nothing for me to sacrifice for my family‘s sake. Let
me be Mr. Winters‘ secretary for you.”
Adeena was at a loss for words.
