Chapter 117


    Chapter 117 It was only after Adina carried Melody to the lobby that she sighed in relief. The little girl let


    go of her neck, and she looked self-me and guilty. “Mel, tell mommy why did youe to Winters


    Corporation?”


    Adina asked in a low voice. However, the girl looked dumbfounded as she widened her eyes. She


    could not say a word. Adina sighed. “You just need to shake your head or nod. Did anyone bring you


    here?” Melody shook her head. “So, did youe here on your own?” Melody nodded.


    Adina pursed her lips.


    She wanted to ask why Melody would go there, and she also wanted to ask how Melody knew the


    ce. But Melody did not speak, so it was useless even if she asked. She stroked her daughter’s hair.


    Only then did she realize that Melody had changed her clothes. When she left the house, she had worn


    a pink dress, but she was wearing a loose long sleeved blouse and pants now.


    Besides, when she arrived at Duke’s office just now, it seemed like Melody had just stepped out of the


    shower.


    What happened for Melody to need a shower? Adina slowly pursed her pink lips.


    She should not have left in a hurry just now. She had not even asked about certain things that she


    should have asked.


    She held Melody tightly as she walked out of the building, and she coincidentally heard a conversation


    between a few security guards. “The little girl today is really pretty. She was taken by Mr. Winters for so


    long. I wonder if she is fine.”


    “It’s my first time to see Mr. Winters show such a gentle expression. He will not do anything to the girl.”


    “Hey, what rtionship do you think is between the little girl and Mr. Winters? Why did such a small kid


    hide in the flower bed for two hours just to wait for Mr. Winters toe out?”


    “Also, the little girl was in Winters Corporation for about two hours. Her parents didn’te and look for


    her. Do you think Mr. Winters is her father?”


    “The girl looks so dirty, but Mr. Winters actually did not mind it. He just held her with his arms. Maybe


    she is really his biological daughter.”


    “Shh! Don’t talk nonsense, or you’ll be cklisted by Winters Corporation!”


    “Bah! Don’t spread this out and ruin Mr. Winters’ reputation, or I’ll not be able to stay in Sea City….”


    When Adina listened to the conversation, her expression becameplex in an instant.


    Did they mean Melody came to Winters Corporation alone, and she hid in the flowerbed for two hours


    after she was refused entry to the building?


    Melody was not a patient person because of her disorder. No matter what she did, it would notst for


    more than an hour.


    Yet, she had actually squatted in the dirty flowerbed for so long just to wait for Duke. Why did Melody


    want to see Duke? Adina recalled the first time they met. Melody rushed into Duke’s arms on the road


    that day.


    Was the man so attractive to Melody?


    She lowered her head and whispered, “Mel, do you like Duke very much?” Something shed in the


    girl’s dumbfounded gaze before she nodded hard. Adina’s feelings became moreplicated


    So, she had really misunderstood Duke today. Duke had carried Melody out of the flowerbed. He had


    also helped Melody take a shower and even changed into new clothes.

    But she had criticized him for no reason.


    Melody even poured a ss of milk onto his head. Adina stroked her nose awkwardly. She could not


    go upstairs again and apologize.
