    Harold raised his chin, and arrogance shed in his ck eyes.


    He scoffed. “If Dad doesn’t want to marry Auntie Adina, I’ll marry her after I grow up. I want to be with


    her every day.” George’s expression became very sullen.


    He did not want to tell Harold about those things at first, but if he kept them from Harold, he was


    worried that Harold would be more and more obsessed with Adina. He slowly said, “Do you know that


    Mom has a sister?” Harold scowled. “Why are you talking about that woman? It’s got nothing to do with


    me whether she has a sister or not. I don’t know about it, and I don’t care about it either. Don’t talk to


    me about her.”


    “It’s rted to you. Mom has a stepsister, and her name’s Adina.” George used his phone, searched for


    a news article, and threw it to Harold. “Adina supposedly died four years ago, but she came back


    because she wants to ‘exact revenge on the Daugherty family and Mom. You’re the best tool for her to


    use against Mom.”


    Harold cast a nce at the news, and his gaze was filled with disbelief. “George, if I understand this


    correctly, is Auntie Adina our biological aunt?”


    George was speechless. He had never seen Harold call Dew “Mom,” but he was pretty good at calling


    Adina “Aunt.” “No wonder I like Auntie Adina so much. She’s our aunt, and we’re biologically rted!”


    Harold jumped with joy. “So, I can officially call Auntie Adina my aunt, right?”


    George had no words for him. Their mother had a closer biological rtionship with them, right? Why


    did this brat dislike their mom?


    Wait a minute, that was not the main point! “Adina approached you because you’re Mom’s son. She’s


    using you,” George said coldly.” “That’s not true!” Harold scoffed. “George, no matter what you say, you


    can’t change how 1 like Auntie Adina. You don’t have to waste your time persuading me.”


    He jumped down from the couch before he went upstairs with his short legs.


    The muscles around George’s chin were tense.


    In the Winters Corporation…


    The sun set at 5.00 pm, and it colored the clouds to form an orange evening sky. Duke was standing in


    front of a French window. He raised his wrist and gave it a nce as his gaze turned colder and colder.


    He had canceled all his appointments in the afternoon to talk about the coboration, but that


    woman, Adina, dared to stand him up. It was the first time that somebody dared to ignore his invitation


    for a coboration. This woman was bold. Great! He would remember this.


    “Mr. Winters, Ms. Daugherty called,” his secretary stood at the door and said with fear. He did not enter


    the office, but he could feel the chilling tension in the CEO’s office.


    Duke did not turn back. “Just tell her that I’m in a meeting.” His secretary nodded before he turned to


    get out of there. However, something seemed to suddenly ur to Duke, and he added, “Hold on,


    which Ms. Daugherty is it?” Dew’s family name was Daugherty, and Adina also had the same family


    name. Perhaps it was Adina?


    His secretary carefully answered, “Ms. Daugherty said something happened in the afternoon. That’s


    why she couldn’t make it to ourpany to discuss the coboration with you. But I’m not very sure


    which Ms. Daugherty she is.” Duke’s stern, furrowed eyebrows instantly loosened before he knitted


    them again.”Call over and ask her what happened.”


    “Yes, Mr. Winters.” His secretary trotted back to the secretarial office before he returned the call.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.
