Chapter 1057
It was actually not very difficult to look for news about Winters Corporation’s boss lady.
Four years ago, there had been plenty of news about Adina Daugherty. Her title of the most beautiful
woman in Sea City put her in the news no matter what she did.
Adeena took her time to read the articles.
The reporters had captured many discreet expressions and gestures in an instant.
She realized that many of her own discreet expressions looked similar to Adina’s. They even drank
wine the same
way.
She was increasingly convinced that she was perhaps Mdm. Winters.
She fell for the man so quickly because of the love that had been etched in her body, right?
Adeena closed her laptop and fell into deep thought.
In less than ten minutes, Duke returned upstairs with a
bowl of oatmeal.
“It’s only 5:00 am, so many shops aren’t open yet. I just managed to buy a bowl of oatmeal for you. I’ll
go downstairs and get you some bread later.”
“Thank you.”
Adeena lowered her head and slowly ate the oatmeal.
The freshly prepared oatmeal was so warm that it filled her heart.
She ate at a leisurely pace, while the sky outside gradually brightened. The morning sun was about to
come out and spread across the sky.
Duke took the bowl after she finished eating and softly asked, “Do you want to watch the sunrise?”
Adeena turned to the side and looked out the window. Her body reacted before her brain could process
it. “Okay, let‘s go.”
She pulled the blanket away and got out of bed as Duke took a jacket from the side and put it over her
shoulders.“ It‘s cold in the morning. It‘s better to put this on.”
“Thank you.”
Adeena realized that she had been saying “thank you” a lot this morning
After finding out that she might be a substitute the day before yesterday, she ran away that very night.
However, after she discovered that she might be Mdm. Winters today, she wanted to be closer to this
man for some reason. :
A woman‘s thoughts were difficult to understand.
Even she could not understand her own thoughts.
The two of them went to the hospital‘s rooftop on the 12th floor. When they stood on the top floor, they
could see the sun slowly rising in the sky.
The morning sun filled half of the sky, and the “red yolk” from the clouds rose up steadily.
The cool breeze in the early morning blew over Adeena‘s hair.
At that moment, her heart felt strangely calm.
All these years, she had been busy repaying the Willis family, so she had been occupied with
establishing her own career and becoming independent. Rarely did she have any free time.
She had no memory of watching the sunrise. Adeena never expected that watching the sunrise could
be so wonderful. When she saw the magnificent sunrise, she was mentally and physically relaxed. She
felt so calm.
While she was watching the sunrise, Duke was watching
her.
His eyes swallowed her features greedily, as though he could never get enough of looking at her. The
sun broke through the clouds, and the golden light
instantly shone all over the ground.
When the sun shone on Adeena’s face, even the tiny hairs on her face became visible. As faint light
crossed her side profile, she looked extremely gorgeous.
Her face did not seem distinctly different from four years
ago.
However, she looked more mature than she did back then. She appeared to have a calmer
temperament, which only made her more gorgeous.
Duke wanted to hold her in his arms.
Just then, Adeena slowly turned around, and at that moment, their eyes met.
There was an ambiguous and affectionate air in the atmosphere.
When Adeena looked into his eyes, she seemed to see the waves that were raging from the ocean that
hit her heart, muscles, and skin.
She shuddered slightly.
Duke looked at her in silence and slowly inched closer.
