    Dew was practicing the piano at home


    Her fingers flew over the ck and white keys. However, she gave up halfway through the song No


    matter how much she practiced, she was never able to y the way that Adina could y.


    The confidence she had built up was fragile in front of Adina.


    She held her head up in chagrin, wishing she could smash the piano.


    Just then, she got a call. She did not save the number as a contact on her phone, but she knew the


    number by heart.


    She picked up the phone and pressed the ept button. “Dew, are you free tonight? See you at our


    usual spot.” A man’s voice came from the phone.


    Dew leaned back on the couch and said coquettishly, “You’re so annoying. Can’t we meet somewhere


    else besides the hotel?”


    “It’s more convenient to do things at the hotel. Dew, I know you like this too. Don’t be coy.”


    The man’s flirtatious words softened up Dew’s body.


    What she could not get from Duke, Dn gave her dozens of times over.


    She knew that Dn was just obsessed with her body, but so what? She enjoyed sleeping with him.


    She was about to say yes when she suddenly noticed, out of the corner of her eye, that a familiar car


    had stopped in front of the Daugherty family’s vi.


    “I have some business to take care of tonight. We’ll meet tomorrow.”


    Dew hung up.


    She hurriedly got up and looked in the mirror. After seeing that her makeup was still neat, she walked


    toward the gate of the vi.


    The door of the ck car at the gate swung open violently. The first thing that caught her eye was a


    pair of incredibly long legs. As she expected, it was Duke. Dew raised her hand and surreptitiously


    pulled down her neckline before she greeted him with a smile. “Duke, what brings you by? Have you


    had dinner? I’ll have my chef make you your favorite food.”


    Before she could finish, she was met with a pair of extremely gloomy eyes. Duke walked coldly toward


    the vi. His tone was icy. “All of you, leave us.”


    The servants in the living room had never seen such a situation. They all ran away in fear.


    Dew was so afraid that her face turned pale.


    She had no idea what had happened, nor did she know why Duke was here.


    She forced a smile. “Duke, no matter what happened, we can talk about it. You’re scaring me by acting


    like this.”


    Duke turned around immediately. His sharp gaze fell on her. “You fooled me for four years!”


    Dew’s heart pounded fast.


    She used all her strength to suppress the panic she felt. “Duke, what are you talking about? When


    have I ever fooled you? I never lied to you.” Duke raised his hand and choked her coldly.N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.


    He had been the CEO of Winters Corporation for so many years. He had managed the entire


    corporation so well. He would not be able to do it if hecked the necessary skills. He had never been


    a kind and merciful man. Those who had offended him had never gotten away unscathed.

    His fingers coldly squeezed Dew’s throat as he asked, enunciating each word, “Tell me, how exactly did


    you manage to cover up the truth about the children from everyone?” Dew’s courage, which she had


    tried so hard to work, copsed at that moment.


    She saw the coldness in Duke’s eyes. A murderous impulse seemed to be looming in there.


    A man like this would never allow himself to be lied to by someone for four years, nor would he allow


    himself to be yed by someone.


    Even so, she had fooled him for four years. “Duke, you’ve misunderstood. It’s not what you think.” Dew


    continued to struggle and shake her head. “Let me go first. I can’t speak. Let go of me, and I will
